Air cleaners

[Pan]

I am still waiting for my Honda Talon, but hearing Honda has a problem with having to change their air filters. Has anyone addressed this problem? And if so, what is the general consensus for curing that problem. Thank You.

There is a relocation kit. 10-80 dirt sports (or something like that) created and sells. Looks good and provides a prefilter that peeps seem to be happy with. I’ll see if I can find you his member name.

Here is a thread on the kit…

New Talon Pre-filter Snorkel

Ok gents, finally got one all together and powder coated. These things are not easy to build! The one you see in the pic was made for a 4 seater but fit on a 2 seater. The filter would be about 3” lower with the 2 seater tube. I’m not running production on these yet. This 4 seat version...

The 10-80 Dirt Sports pre filter kit is what you want. Install it when the machine is new and you will never have to open up the main airbox. I ran one on my Talon race car last season and my factory installed air filter was as good as new when I took it out after the season was over.

Better thread here skips the first version which passed through the fender grate.
Talon intake pre-filter kit

About 130 kits sold since March, not including tubes only, for people who wanted to run a different pre-filter. August has been the busiest month so far for these kits. I've been hit very hard this month.

I'm running extremely low on the desertcraft filters but should be receiving a restocking order of 70 by mid September. The filters are the largest upfront expense for me because I have to meet a minimum quantity to have them made and allow 4-6 weeks lead time. These particular filters are only made for my kits. All of the other components I can order is smaller quantities.

There's a stickie in the Talon 1000 Discussion Forum "New Talon Owners - First Things to Know and Check" if you haven't seen it. It's also linked in my sig.

I ran the Honda accessories S&B particle separator for a yr, worked OK....ish. Switched to 10-80's set up this year and it's much improved. I did just switch out the Desert Kraft filter for an oiled Unifilter to see if it will be even better. My stock filter was dirtier than I expected at 1500 mile but it has more to do with the dust we've been riding in this year.

The 10-80 Dirt Sports pre filter kit is the best thing going IMHO and of course I have one installed... You can choose what ever pre filter you like. Take a extra one with you and you can change it out in about 60 seconds with a fresh filter if needed. I put a restriction gauge on my air box and it tells me if the OEM filter needs changing and so far it has no need to be changed.

I’d imagine it’s something like this. Easy install.
Wix Filters - 24801 Heavy Duty Air Filter Service Gauge, Pack of 1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0014BI1KA/ref=cm_sw_r_api_i_3HQS2QXG0TWNKAG0ERAS_0

I’ve seen remote types also that can be used with a dash display. Maybe Donaldson brand.

Filter Minder® - Highest Quality Indicators, Gauges, Switches and Sensors You install it on the air box cover,,, works like a charm, you can get fancy and get one that has a gauge that you put on your dash inside the cabin. My 02 Ford 250 diesel has one from the factory that sends a signal to my dash.
