air filter maintenance

 Howdy,

I'm rethinking how we do air filters here.  Anybody have
an opinion?

Seems like the water based stuff maybe doesn't stay in
the filter forever?  That could be a problem for us as we
may not ride a bike for 2-3 months and then expect to
poour in gas and go.  Having to redo the filter would cramp
our style.

The cleanup seems way easier though.

I'm leaning toward staying with the air filter oil we use - Twin
Air Liquid Power.

I've used the No-Toil for years. Bummed to see it's changed...I have an
large supply of the stuff. Looks like I'm going to have to re-learn
myself.

The best solution is to just keep a spare clean filter. When you're
ready to go, and it's been 3 months, just oil it up, swap & go. Takes 5
minutes.

Well, we change filters every day, sometimes twice during the summer
dust months so this is an area I am familiar with. I keep a half dozen
or so filters and extra cages for each bike. This season we switched
from PJ1 to No Toil because of the eco-pushers in the pits. Next season
I think I am going back to the spray stuff. I know it stinks and is a
mess to work with, but the No-Toil just doesn't seem to do as good of a
job, and just fills the inside of the box with excess oil even if you
squeeze the stuff out real well before installation. Just my opinion...
I don't like it. Oh, and that whole eco-friendly thing, just moisten a
hand and pour a teaspoon of that cleaner on your hand... Be near water
when you do it, or it will burn right through;) Seriously, it gets
really hot, fast...

High pH is why it feels that way, I think. High pH is also the answer
when you are trying to find a substitute cleaner for NoToil.

Once upon a time, that was my "exclusive" product in New England.I set
up a lot of displays and promoted the product a lot until one day they
gave my product and my customer list to White Brothers. Great product.
