FAQs

What models is this air filter compatible with?

This Twin Air filter is designed for Kawasaki KX80 (1991-2000), KX85 (2001-2024), KX100 (1995-2021), and KX112 (2022-2024) models.

How does this filter improve engine power?

The filter is engineered to be slightly smaller than stock, creating more air space around it. This enhances air circulation within the airbox, leading to increased airflow and thus, improved engine power.

Can I use regular motor oil to 'oil' this filter?

No, you should not use regular motor oil. Twin Air recommends using their specific filter oil or a comparable product designed for foam air filters. Do not oil the sealing ring.

How often should I clean the air filter?

Cleaning frequency depends on riding conditions. In dusty environments, it may be necessary to clean the filter after every ride. In cleaner conditions, check it regularly and clean as needed.

What is the dual-layer foam construction?

It features a coarse outer foam to capture large particles and a fine inner foam to trap the smallest particles, ensuring maximum clean airflow while preventing engine damage.

Is it necessary to grease the sealing ring?

The thick foam sealing ring is designed to create a seal without grease. However, applying a small amount of air filter seal grease to the airbox mounting flange can help ensure a perfect seal.

What happens if I use gasoline to clean the filter?

Using gasoline or strong solvents can degrade the foam material and the adhesive, compromising the filter's integrity and effectiveness. Always use recommended filter cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Filter does not seal properly

Ensure the airbox mating surface is clean and free of debris. Check that the foam sealing ring is correctly seated and not damaged. Apply a thin bead of air filter seal grease to the flange if necessary.

Reduced engine power after installation

Verify the filter is installed correctly and not blocking airflow. Ensure the airbox is sealed properly. Check for any obstructions within the air intake system.

Filter material appears degraded

This can happen if harsh cleaning solvents (like gasoline) were used. Ensure you are using recommended filter cleaners and following the care instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Increases engine power due to improved airflow.
  • Superior filtration of dirt, grime, and sand.
  • Durable construction resistant to solvents and gasoline.
  • Provides a secure, breathable seal with the airbox.
  • Reduces the tendency to clog compared to standard filters.

Cons

  • Requires careful installation due to slightly smaller size than stock.
  • May require specialized cleaning agents for optimal maintenance.
  • Not compatible with models outside the specified Kawasaki range.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This Twin Air filter is specifically designed for:

  • Kawasaki KX80 (1991-2000)
  • Kawasaki KX85 (2001-2024)
  • Kawasaki KX100 (1995-2021)
  • Kawasaki KX112 (2022-2024)

Ensure your motorcycle model and year fall within this range before installation.

Setup:

  1. Carefully remove the stock air filter.
  2. Inspect the airbox for any debris and clean thoroughly.
  3. Apply a thin, even bead of Twin Air Liquid Air Filter Seal Grease to the airbox mounting flange. *Note: The foam sealing ring on the filter is designed to seal without additional grease, but a small amount on the flange can ensure a perfect seal.*
  4. Gently press the Twin Air filter into place. Ensure it is seated evenly and securely. The foam seal should compress slightly for a tight fit.
  5. Double-check that the filter is flush against the airbox mating surface on all sides.
  6. Reinstall the air filter cover and any retaining clips.

Care:

Regular cleaning is essential for maintaining performance.

  1. Remove the filter from the airbox.
  2. Use a Twin Air filter cleaner or a mild degreaser. Avoid using gasoline or strong solvents directly on the foam, as this can degrade the adhesive and foam material.
  3. Gently agitate the filter in the cleaner. Do not twist or wring the foam.
  4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
  5. Allow the filter to air dry completely. Do not use heat or compressed air, as this can damage the foam.
  6. Once dry, apply a liberal amount of Twin Air Liquid Air Filter Seal Grease to the filter's sealing edge and inner rim. Do not use oil-based filter oil.
