The aftermarket filter is supposed to last your bike lifetime. But of course, you can check the condition everytime you wash it.

It should last as long as your bike.

Just take out wash and reuse.

If its those after market filter, they can last the whole of your bike age.

 

If its stock, check for discolouration, sponges that degrade when you touch it, holes in the filter etc. My old airfilter, the sponge just "broke" into powdery pieces if i just touch it a little. Messy black stuff.
