Blue SE Air Filter fell apart.....
« on: January 22, 2006, 10:03:46 PM »

Seems as though this is a pretty common occurance, but I thought I would post a reminder anyway.  Bike has 5400 miles on it.  Just changed out the blue air filter for a genuine K & N filter.  Part number HD0800
I didn't see anything wrong with the blue filter until I removed it from the bike.  Then found the inner portion of the sealing band had torn away.  Lucky I caught it before it went through the engine.  Don't have any photos but I could if there was an interest.  Something to keep an eye out for.

Mine is the K&N already, Being an export model I had to buy the teardrop stage 1 filter kit as an extra,I imagine you altugo will have a similar thing (the export model)

cheers
