Hi All

The air filter on my 3CL has big holes in the foam so is not doing what it says on the tin one little bit.

Can the foam be replaced? If so can anyone point me in the direction of a supplier?

Cheers

Glen.
 
Buy some filter material from an air conditioning machine supplier.
That's what Wolfgang sells.
 
A dedicated filter is available... sometimes.  It is re-usable, ie, washable and a lot more durable than air conditioning gauze.

I can check and let you know, located in Germany.

Glen,

Go to Halfords and buy some Aluminium repair sheet, cost you about ?2 and will make two air filter elements.

I found a thin flat K & N filter, from an early Honda Valkyrie, cut the K & N filter to fit the stock Laverda air box, then used silicone to hold it in place. It has been in place for about 50,000 kms on my 79 1200, works great, and much better filtration than air conditioner foam!

I bought a decent replacement. Then I took the old one out and decided it wasn't too bad, cleaned it, I think a drop of filter oil was required and re-installed it and all is fine..and I have a spare..

I have read in the ILOC technical section that a Ford RS2000 air filter can be modified to fit an RGS. Does that mean my 3CL too?

Anyone tried it?

No - different airbox for RG series bikes.
