FAQs
Can I use compressed air to clean this filter?
No, you should never use compressed air on a BMC filter as it can permanently damage the filtration material.
How often should I clean the BMC air filter?
Cleaning intervals depend on riding conditions, but it is generally recommended to inspect and clean every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers.
Does this filter fit all motorcycles?
No, this filter is specifically sized at 148x165mm. Always verify the part number compatibility with your specific motorcycle make and model.
Do I need to apply oil to the filter?
Yes, this is an oiled cotton filter. It must be treated with BMC-approved filter oil after each cleaning to ensure proper dust trapping.
Will this filter void my motorcycle warranty?
Generally, using an aftermarket air filter does not void a warranty, but it is best to check with your local dealer regarding specific manufacturer policies.
Troubleshooting
Engine feels sluggish after installation
Check the airbox seal to ensure there are no air leaks and confirm the filter is not over-oiled, as excess oil can restrict airflow.
Visible dirt inside the airbox after use
Verify the filter is seated perfectly in the frame and ensure the airbox cover is fully tightened to create a proper vacuum seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the FM01130, first ensure the engine is cool. Open your airbox housing, remove the existing filter, and clean the housing interior to remove any trapped dust. Insert the BMC filter, ensuring the rubber seal is seated correctly around the perimeter of the airbox. For maintenance, clean the filter using a dedicated BMC cleaning solution at the recommended service intervals. After rinsing and drying thoroughly, apply an even coat of BMC filter oil to the medium. Never use compressed air to clean the filter, as this can damage the fine filtration mesh.
