Have you looked at the stock filter yet? Some are pretty dirty at the 300 mile mark.

Did you snorkel the Uni or is it inside the airbox?

I put a new factory filter in with the uni.im going to try it in the air box for now. The original filter was pretty dirty,I used the shop vacuum to clean it once, figured to start new again see how it is going to work

I like the UNI in the air box. Please share photo when you do so.....

Sorry I already put the cover on I’ll share a pic when I inspect it

fwiw: it takes 10 seconds to remove an external Uni and it's easy to see when it needs cleaning. One unforeseen shortcoming - I hang my winter coat on the passenger seat (backward, no passenger), the collar comes very close to the oiled Uni begging to get the collar oily. Since many of my rides are at altitude, the coat is always with me.

Just a trial right now until I can find a clean way to mount it externally I agree it needs to easily serviced

Trials are good, it's how we got men on the moon.

New Talon Owners - First Things to Know and Check

I'm new to the SxS world - damn, there's a lot to learn, hence this thread - maybe we can make it easier for others new to the Talon and put it in one thread. 1. If you're a motorcyclist, you already know that sometimes your bike won't shift into gear at a stop without rocking the bike back and...

I put a UNI filter inside the air box, I am at 150 miles on dusty gravel roads. The air filter looks new yet but the inside of the Uni is going to need to be cleaned in another 50 miles. I have a second UNI in my load out box oiled in a plastic bag ready to go. I agree it needs to be out and up in the clean air, just haven't had time to make snorkel.

Do you happen to have a pic of the inside of your box with the UNI in it?

 

[Worrom1]

No it’s all closed up now

Well perhaps the next time it’s open......

Dang just had mine apart. At 150 miles I decided to clean it. It probably could have gone double that. I put my spare UNI on already. Next

I just cleaned the UNI filter, it had 150 dusty gravel road mile on it. The primary filter looks like new and the UNI filter could have gone double that many miles.

I cleaned the UNI filter at 150 miles today, it probably could have gone double that mileage. I have 2 and will swap them out and keep a clean oiled up on in my box. One thing to do is used compressed air to remove any dust from the outside of the air cleaner box and back of the car before removing anything to keep accidentally knocking dirt or dust into the air cleaner compartment

Great idea cleaning everything around the box before getting into it. So the UNI inside the box like that just slips onto the intake hose????

Yes just make sure you order 3 inch. This also has a 15 degree cant to it. YouTube Honda Talon air cleaner. That's where I got the idea.
