Product Information
Full details
The Twin Air Air Filter (723.15.72) is designed for Kawasaki motorcycle owners seeking superior engine protection and improved airflow in challenging environments. Its innovative dual-layer foam construction effectively captures debris ranging from coarse sand to fine dust particles, making it an ideal upgrade for off-road riders. While this filter offers exceptional durability and performance, it requires regular cleaning and re-oiling to maintain its filtration efficacy over time.

FAQs
Can I use gasoline to clean this filter?
No. Gasoline will degrade the foam material and destroy the micro-binding agents, leading to premature filter failure.
How often should I clean the filter?
Clean it after every ride in dusty conditions, or at least every 2-3 rides for casual trail use.
Do I really need to oil a foam filter?
Yes. The oil is the 'sticky' part that actually catches the fine dust particles. Without oil, the filter is largely ineffective.
Is this filter reusable?
Yes, it is designed to be washed, re-oiled, and reused many times over its lifespan.
Can I use this on other brands of motorcycles?
No. This filter is shaped and sized specifically for Kawasaki airboxes and will not provide a proper seal on other brands.
Troubleshooting
Bike is running 'rich' or sluggish
Check if you have over-oiled the filter. Squeeze out excess oil until the foam is damp but not dripping.
Visible dirt inside the airbox boot
Ensure the filter is seated correctly against the rim and that the sealing grease was applied properly to form a complete gasket.
Filter material is crumbling
This is a sign of old age or the use of improper cleaning chemicals (like gasoline). Replace the filter immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility
This filter is designed specifically for Kawasaki motorcycles utilizing the 723.15.72 specification. Always verify your motorcycle model’s service manual to ensure this part number matches your specific airbox architecture.
Setup
- Ensure the airbox is completely clean of any residual dust or dirt before installation.
- Lightly grease the rubber sealing rim of the filter to create an airtight seal against the airbox mounting surface.
- Secure the filter firmly using the provided retaining hardware.
Care
- Wash the filter using a dedicated foam filter cleaner or mild dish soap in warm water.
- Rinse from the inside out to push dirt away from the filter media.
- Allow the filter to air dry completely—do not wring or twist the foam as this can tear the structure.
- Apply an even layer of foam filter oil, massage it into the pores, and squeeze out any excess oil before reinstalling.
