How about some of this K&N Oil instead of what Honda recommends? CB125s
« on: June 15, 2013, 05:59:02 PM »
Just soaked the stock air filter (which is a metal type) in warm water with dish soap. Also ran some engine cleaner through it which actually really helps much more.

Honda says to use engine oil or whatever...but I do have a full can of K&N filter oil. Why not just that instead?

Why not indeed? It won't hurt mate, so go for it! Cheers, Terry. ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

I agree. Made the call and just went with. Seems golden.

K&N makes two types, one for foam filters, one for fabric filters. It's important to use the correct one.

Doesn't that bike have a paper filter?

I pulled out a mesh-looking thing cylinder.

I was too expecting paper.
