At that price you've got no excuse for having a dirty filter!Normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08561928102855867969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4536236546909059330.post-86293001186182596052013-04-05T21:24:17.876+01:002013-04-05T21:24:17.876+01:00Really great idea, Norman!

At least with the new one, we can be sure that it’s on full capacity at protecting our engine. Ain’t that right?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.partsmonkey.com/en/main/service/brake/change-pads" rel="nofollow">Enoch Ross</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02859427849374780133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4536236546909059330.post-43028026203050034482011-08-10T22:06:26.049+01:002011-08-10T22:06:26.049+01:00Thanks for the post Norman, and I like the idea of...Thanks for the post Norman, and I like the idea of using the hot glue. Think when I get back to work I'll size up the air filter out of one of the Honda quads, which are foam type, I'll let you know the out come as it could be another source of the filter material. As for cleaning foam filters I use a tin of brake cleaner, usually Holts, and could if carefull clean three filters per can.<br /><br />kawaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4536236546909059330.post-62947266759364122702011-08-07T20:52:45.775+01:002011-08-07T20:52:45.775+01:00I used a glue gun because I've got one.

You could use silicon gasket or even bath sealant equally as well.<br />I hadn't intended on cleaning dirty filters as it would cost as much (or even more), to clean one as replace it.The Ramair cleaning kit costs the same as 8 filters: http://www.edsmotorsport.co.uk/ramair-filter-cleaner-207-p.aspNormanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08561928102855867969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4536236546909059330.post-20454855538157566352011-08-07T15:33:01.031+01:002011-08-07T15:33:01.031+01:00'Were missing me on the forum?'

Or did you mean we're? ha! ha!<br />After a number of personal crises I'm getting back together again and hoping to get out and about more on the bike. In many ways, this blog and my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001554396563&sk=info have replaced the forum, and they're less likely to be hijacked by someone with a political agenda.<br />Hope things are going well and you're having fun on your bike.Normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08561928102855867969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4536236546909059330.post-81089025222515901032011-08-07T12:50:57.028+01:002011-08-07T12:50:57.028+01:00Were missing you on the forum.
