Product Information
Full details
The Twin Air Air Filter Cover is an essential tool for off-road riders and mechanics who perform regular maintenance on their motorcycle's air intake system. It provides a reliable barrier against water and cleaning agents during the wash process, preventing damage to the engine intake. While it is highly effective at keeping the air box dry, users must remember to remove the cover before attempting to start the motorcycle, as it completely blocks airflow.

FAQs
Can I leave the cover on while starting the engine?
No. You must remove the cover before starting the engine as it obstructs all air intake.
Is this cover universal for all motorcycles?
No, this part is model-specific. Verify your air box compatibility before purchasing.
What is the purpose of the neoprene ring?
The neoprene ring provides a soft, compressible seal against the rigid air box to prevent water and soap from leaking inside.
Does this replace my air filter?
No, this is a maintenance tool used only while the air filter is removed for cleaning.
How do I clean the cover?
Simply rinse it with clean water and wipe it down with a cloth after you have finished washing your bike.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking past the seal
Verify that the neoprene ring is seated correctly and check for debris between the cover and the air box lip.
Screw is difficult to turn
Clean the threads on the air box mounting point and the screw itself to remove any dried mud or grit.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents water ingress during pressure washing
- Easy to install and remove with a single mounting screw
- Durable neoprene seal ensures a tight, reliable fit
- Protects engine internals from chemical contamination
Cons
- Must be manually removed before the engine is started
- Specific to certain air box designs; check compatibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: remove the air filter, align the cover over the air box opening, and insert the included screw to tighten it into place. To maintain the effectiveness of the seal, keep the neoprene ring clean and free of debris. If the ring becomes damaged or cracked over time, ensure it is replaced to maintain the watertight integrity of the system. Store the cover in a clean, dry location when not in use to prevent the seal from degrading.
