<< < (2/2)

Bryanj:
Aparently oiling them makes the mixture control go bad

Athame57:
There is actually a youtube video on this matter.

Back in the day when I used to race a bit of speedway my least favourite job was cleaning and re-oiling the K&N filter after every meeting. Back in the 80’s the filter used to poke out in the open on the right hand side of the bike. The filter used to get filthy with dust and shale and especially after a tumble! Thankfully they are centrally located now and protected by the bike covers. If you ran the filter dry it was a very quick way to scrap a motor🫩
K&N filter oil was expensive back then and probably still is!
