45min of riding? to you ride in waist high dirt or something? if i did that i would have to clean it about 6+ times when i go ride somewhere.
yes you should clean it, i have used motor oil on a foam filter before, just make sure the filter it dry from cleaning before you oil it.

motoroil and filter oil is nowhere near the same thing... sure you can use 10w30 on your airfilter, I know you wanted to buy that new stroker crank and top end anyways.....
Actually, in some places it looks oddly clean. Make sure you cover all surfaces (inside and out) with oil and squeeze/knead it to evenly distribute. Then squeeze out any excess....like the oil filter oil instructions say.
Yep, any bike shop. PJ1, Maxima, or anything that says super tacky. Aerosol cans are handier than bottles you have to pour out of.
Large ziplock bag, put the filter in, poor oil in, seal and squeeze.. Do not worry about overoiling it, that cant be done.. to clean, sink full of hot water and dawn dish soap. repeat a couple times. then rinse completely. dont forget to grease the lip.
I don't think my phone picked it all up.. But when I look at it in person it looks pretty bad I:I
I'm putting a newer one in anyhow, I don't think it's been changed in a long time.
Holy old threads!
I thought Phragle was back amongst us!
Did someone say they clean theirs every 45 minutes of riding?
Hell, that ain't even a tank of gas.
