[R7-SE]

Does anyone have any experience with MWR airfilter? They offer two types for the R7 one being ”Performance” which is meant for road/track and the other one is the ”RACING” which is meant for track only.

I wanted the ”performance” one but my dealer got me the ”Racing”. Which i discovered after installing it on the bike.

And MWR writes on their homesite that its meant only for track use. I have made the conclusion that its only for track because the ”race filter” has a tighter service scheme.

My question is…
Has anybody used mwr racing filter for road only? If so, how often did you wash and oiled it?

Since their filter looks like a drop in + lid, I don't think you'd have to maintain it all that often. Maybe every few thousand miles if on road and normal conditions. The Hordpower / Yoshimura / Pod filters have to be cleaned more often because they are completely open to the elements. That all said, if you ride through a dust storm etc. you should probably check your filter regardless of what type you're running.

Thats seems like reasonable intervall to do, i was afraid that i was having to do it like every 200-300 km.

Thanks for the thought!

It says it on the frontpage - I would contact them and ask for a the intervals on the racing line

I actually called them yesterday, and got the answer that the ”Racing” one is not optimal for road because of the service interval. But they said that it would be optimal the check it at least after every 500 km if i were going to use it for road.

Then they went on and recommended me the ”Enduro Tenere Kit”, that it would lengthen the service interval to once a year.

This is the kit they recommended.

This means another penny from the piggybank goes if I dont wanna service the filter each 500km. But i rather keep my penny in my piggyback at least to the filter gives up.
