Simota Air Filter? What do you guys think? or have any of you used it?

 

Using it on my oldman revo...Changed the stock airfilter to simota(without him knowing) and asked him to ride the bike. Received a phonecall few minutes later scolding me what have i done to his bike. He says the throttle response is very good.

 

One thing gd about simota,you can use air gun to dry after washing whereas K&N must dry naturally or use hair dryer..

its a cb400.. anyway, i finally had the chance to take a closer look at the bike already.. the exhaust on the left its not connected to the headers.. just a pipe fixed to the bike..

After 1 yr plus of riding decided to check on my air filter, turn out to be K&N. All the while i using K&N i dunno..LOL.

 

Wash $10 at Unique,somebody said that K&N do need wash so often..can use untill COE die..Haha.. Plan to buy recharger kit next time and DIY(sometimes u DIY feels better than u pay pple to do the job but anyhow do)

 

Scroll to previous page and u realize how cheap K&N WAS compared to now. $75. Whereelse last yr was $60.

 

After washing OPEN VTEC sound louder.

No other way to check unless you open up your fuel tank. I assume that yours is K&N as the bikeshop says. K&N should be washed roughly about 20 000km..like mine i wash every 15 000km due to riding up north frequently.Those m'sian trunk road are pretty dusty.

u realize how much bus fare last time is cheap compared to now?

u realize how much coffee shop food last time is cheap compared to now?

u realize how much petrol last time is cheap compared to now?

 

after u service air filter, ur engine can breathe better

 

how do u guy wash the filter

might as well give bike shop service, if $10 u wanna save n buy those stuffs n DIY, by all means, wash the filter, dried it then apply the cleaner

well sometimes someone need to become a lab rat if you know what i mean.....no offence...

 

hahaha...just installed the simota air filter together with the basic servicing of plugs, oil filter n e.o with the 3 in 1 ows too...it feels light and also from the response of the throttle its sensitive in a gd way such as it pulls easily...maybe have to wait for a few thousand km to see how the performance once it gets season...

time for u to go service, its okie one, no worries, after u service liao, u will feel the bike has been reborn:cool:

[FrdAuZ]

AGREE..after washing...waaah syiok.

[Fazli]

I've seen the Simota filter and the filtering element is like super thin and very sparse. See thru easily. Can it trap particles very well?
