Product Information
Full details
The Twin Air Air Box Cover is a professional-grade tool designed for owners of the Yamaha YFZ450R who perform their own routine vehicle maintenance. It serves as a vital protective shield for your engine's air intake system during wash cycles, ensuring that water, detergents, and debris do not contaminate the intake tract when the air filter is removed. While it offers superior protection during cleaning, users must remember to remove the cover before attempting to start the engine, as it completely seals the airbox.

FAQs
Will this fit other Yamaha models?
No, this specific part (160150) is engineered exclusively for the Yamaha YFZ450R airbox dimensions.
Can I leave the cover on during transport?
No, the cover is intended only for maintenance and cleaning. Always remove it before starting the engine or riding.
What should I do if I lose the mounting screw?
The mounting screw is essential for the seal integrity; you should contact Twin Air or an authorized dealer for a replacement rather than using an improper substitute.
Does the cover come with an air filter?
No, this product is solely the airbox cover used to protect the intake while the air filter is being serviced.
How do I clean the cover itself?
Simply rinse it with clean water and wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth after your vehicle cleaning is complete.
Troubleshooting
Cover does not sit flush against the airbox
Verify that no air filter hardware or debris is trapped between the cover and the mounting surface.
Water appears to be seeping past the seal
Check the rubber sealing ring for debris or damage, and ensure the mounting screw is tightened sufficiently.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents water and cleaning agents from reaching the engine intake
- Extremely durable ABS plastic resists cracking and warping
- Rubber seal ensures a tight, professional-grade fit
- Easy to install and remove during maintenance routines
Cons
- Specific to the Yamaha YFZ450R model

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Preparation: Ensure the engine is completely off and the seat is removed to access the airbox.
- Installation: Remove your current air filter. Place the Twin Air cover over the airbox opening, aligning the mounting points.
- Securing: Use the provided mounting screw to tighten the cover until the rubber seal is compressed against the airbox rim.
- Cleaning: You may now wash your vehicle. Avoid spraying high-pressure water directly at the seal point if possible.
- Maintenance: After washing, wipe the cover dry before removing it to prevent any trapped water from dripping into the intake. Clean the cover with a cloth after each use to ensure the rubber seal remains free of grit.
