Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

planning to fit universal air filter which air filter should i choose from
1)cosworth
2)k&n
3)uni
am living in Kerala even though climate condition is moderate there are dust everywhere in cities
my bike is honda cb trigger...
wanted increase sound, a little more power without causing damage to the engine.........

IMO Aftermarket Air Filters are NOT advisable. Even I had a K&N air filter RC1060 on my Honda Dio 2012 but I removed it as it affects the engine negatively in a long run. It cut shorts the life of an engine. After all what's a bike without a proper engine?
Think about it.
Stay Stock.
Happy Biking !! :thumbup:

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

If to use the BA1801 with a stock air box ( no extra holes), then jetting is not required.

Thanks for the quick reply.. One query. If we use the stock air box also, air supply to engine will more through K&N rite. so according to that we need to increase the fuel supply too rite,.. correct me if am wrong..

And could you please PM the price for the BA1801

I am planning to replace my stock air filter of my pulsar 150(2005 Model) with K&N BA1801. Did any body know a good mechanic in Bangalore who can do jetting.. Local mechanic near to my place and event he bajaj service centre people are not aware of what need to be done after fitting K&N.

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

Yesterday opened the pilot jet it was jammed a bit so cleaned it with a thin wire, now the missing part has gone & the low end responce has improved but not upto the mark, so finally I am thinking to try and change the pilot jet with a bigger one. Also guys will there be any effect on the milage or anything else that should be kept in mind, also can we get the jets online or from any other source since availability is a big problem out here... So guys throw some light on it......

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

The problem with adjusting the air screw to compensate for a small pilot jet, is that if you unscrew it too much, it may just fall off while riding.

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

yes the k&n is a new one also the bike is missing only in the low end pick up and in high end it runs fine. I live in Tinsukia, Assam..

Cant we adjust the pilot jet for better fuel flow in low end pick up since finding a bigger pilot jet is a tough job out here..

I see no other issue here than pilot jet being lean. Also your point that bike is missing in low end only further strengthens my assumption. Why don't you give it a try. Jets are not costly also

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

Is the K&N filter new? Has it been reoiled? Try this, press some tissue paper on the filter and soak up some excess oil. For best results you need to install the filter directly on the carb. You'll need a bigger main jet though. I can send you one, where are you located?

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

I tried to find the pilot jet but could not find one of a bigger size....

Re: K&N Air Filter Queries and Doubts

I have cleaned my carb just few days back but of no use.. Actually after cleaning the problem has increased a lot... And bro cant figure out about which screw are you talking about.....

----consecutive posts auto-merged-----

Also it is impossible to keep my RPM idle at 1 or 1.5 when the engine is cold and when the engine heats up properly then the RPM fluctuates in between 1.5 to 2..

Did you change the pilot jet? As I suggested last time, you can try with next bigger pilot jet

Ok. Try to clean Carburetor of you bike. I think you can see a small flat screwing under the Carburetor.
