Air Cleaner
A clogged air cleaner restricts the engine’s
air intake, increasing fuel consumption,
reducing engine power, and
causing spark plug fouling.
This motorcycle’s air cleaner element
consists of a wet paper filter, which cannot
be cleaned.
The air cleaner element must be replaced
in acco ...
