How often do you clean air box and filter? Just over 100 miles. Mine is a little dusty. Filter doesn’t look that dirty but box is dusty. Thanks.

Clean as necessary based on your riding. My filter might get dirty in one ride if I’m last in line on a dusty ride or it won’t get dirty all winter. I recommend a spare foam filter ready to install. That way you can clean and dry and your machine won’t be down for days. I use PJ1 filter cleaner and oil. The last time I cleaned my filter it took a day and a half to dry. ;)

I meant PJ1. I get it from the Honda dealer 😉😎

Thanks for the information. I guess I need an extra filter.
No problem. This is my back up. I keep it oiled in the original bag on the ready. Probably washed it three times already and holding up good.😉
