Product Information

Full details

The Twin Air Air Filter 153101 is designed for off-road riders and mechanics who prioritize engine longevity and consistent performance under harsh conditions. Its primary benefit is the specialized dual-layer foam construction that maximizes airflow while effectively capturing microscopic debris, though riders should note that it requires periodic cleaning and re-oiling to maintain these protective qualities.

FAQs

Do I need to use grease on the sealing ring?

No, the Twin Air filter is designed with a flat, foam sealing ring that provides a secure seal against the airbox without additional grease.

Can I run this filter dry?

No, this filter must be treated with foam air filter oil to trap particles effectively. Running it dry will not provide adequate engine protection.

How often should I clean the filter?

Cleaning frequency depends on the riding conditions. In dusty or sandy conditions, clean it after every ride.

Can I wash the filter with gasoline?

No, gasoline can degrade the foam and the adhesive used to fuse the layers. Always use dedicated foam filter cleaner or mild detergent.

What happens if the layers separate?

The layers are fused for durability, but if they separate, the filter should be replaced immediately as it will no longer provide the intended level of protection.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt inside the airbox after installation

Check the airbox sealing flange for damage and ensure the filter is seated perfectly flat without gaps.

Engine feels sluggish after cleaning

Ensure you have not over-oiled the filter. Excessive oil can restrict airflow; squeeze out all excess oil before installing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior filtration of both large and small particles
  • Durable, fused foam construction resists layer separation
  • Secure airbox seal without the need for messy grease
  • Improved engine response due to optimized airflow

Cons

  • Requires regular cleaning and re-oiling for maintenance
  • Not intended for "dry" use; must be oiled correctly
  • Specific to compatible airbox models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper function, always verify the 153101 part number matches your vehicle's airbox specifications. When installing, ensure the foam sealing ring is seated perfectly flat against the airbox flange. For maintenance, clean the filter using approved foam filter cleaner, allow it to dry completely, and apply a high-quality foam air filter oil uniformly. Massage the oil into the foam, ensuring full coverage, and squeeze out any excess before reinstallation. Avoid wringing or twisting the foam, as this can tear the material.
