How to change it, how to clean it, where is it at? Anyone?

 

one of the most easiest things to do...it is located under the tank, in the filter box
1-take off the 2 front, and 2 backbolts that hold the tank(remove the seat for that), do not remove the tank, just lift it up.
2. you'll gonna see the filter cover, wich is hold in place by 10-11 screws(remove them also)., and also unplug the sensor on the top of the cover(small white sensor)
3. and there you go-you can see the filter right now.

if you have an oem air filter, you can clean it with a blower.
the best way to check if it's still in good condition, take a lamp and put the filter on the top of the lamp, if you see light comming thru the filter, then it's still good.
if you have an aftermarket one like k&n, or bmc then you can wash it.

i hope this helped you

 

I wouldn't waste time blowing out the stock one. I'd just replace it. Either with a clean OEM or aftermarket paper filter or upgrade to teh K&N or BMC. imo why waste the time taking a dirty filter out, and putting a dirty one back in. They're cheap enough to just replace. (paper filters)

 

i agree just swap in besides blowing out all the dirt and crap only loosens it up and it can get pulled into your engine
you dont want that

 

With a aftermarket filter you need a power commander if you also have a slip on, correct?

 

Not that I have ever heard, but i could be wrong. I have a K&N, after market pipe and PC, so....yeah.

 

You don't HAVE to have a PC with minor mods like slip ons and filters but it helps to have it custom mapped after any mod.
