Title: How do I take this filter off?
Post by PickleVictory on 04/24/26 at 16:55:31

Probably a silly question.
Previous owner ditched the air box in favor of this air filter on the back of the carburetor. It is overdue to be taken off for cleaning but the top of the filter is pressed against bike frame. Is there any way to remove this filter without disassembling the carb? Can provide more pics if needed.
Bike is a 2004 650.

Remove the carb and air filter together. Either that or cut the rubber filter connection.

Loosen the clamp at the front where the cylinder is, and also the back clamp where the filter is.

Then wiggle the carb at an angle to get the filter to move away from the frame.
