    All I get is this little box?!
    195k miles and I personally have never cleaned it. I acquired it at 92k. Last checked at about 150k (maybe 3-4 years ago) when I installed 3 degree cam retard gears and it looked fine then. I'll be removing and cleaning it next weekend probably.

    I've also been wanting to get the stock air box to replace my k&n intake and replace the Flow master Super 50 with the stock muffler too. Did those mods about 10 years ago and as you get older you want peace and quiet lol. Plus I have a TRX for when I want to make noise. I unfortunately have neither of those things anymore though.

    I have not changed my air-filter in twenty years.

    Be careful of the 4 bolts when you reinstall it. I’ve broken one twice. I think the torque spec is either off or I misread it. I now use the TAGN method - “that ain’t going nowhere.”
