what can you use to clean and re-oil besides the stuff the sell on their site?

thanx

 

I remembered someone said you can use mild soap to clean it.
As for re-oil I will use their product.

Marc.....are you gonna clean mine one for me

 

K&N cleaning kit

 

nevermind...found it http://www.unifilter.com

oscar, you know what you can do with your filter... lol
rob...IM me

 

A few things you can do.

1. Clean with Dish detergent and reoil with a light amount of motor oil
2. Use a K&N Cleaner kit (Only difference from Unis Kit is that K&N adds a red dye to the oil.)
3. Go to any Motorcycle shop that sells UNI Filters and get a cleaning/Reoiling kit from them.
4. Get Comptechs Kit (UNI Kit rebadged.)

 

tricks of the trade

 

so USing a KNN recharger kit to clean the foam filter is ok??

 

i found best cleaning results with comptech foam cleaner.. tried some other from bike shop.. didn't clean as well.. so i'd stick with comptech uni stuff

for re-oil.. either comptech, if other brand, make sure it says for foam filters.. i wouldn't use k&n (not saying that you can not)

cleaning.. i do like it says in their directions... spray it all around with cleaner.. let it sit for few minites.. then rinse it down... if needed.. repeat the process... to speed up the drying process, you can shake the water - wait for few days to dry up... re-spray so its covered all around, if not enough coats of oil, it will dry up quick... and could deform the filter.. too much oil is also not good

if you only got one fitler, i suggest to buy a second one, so you have no downtime... and check/replace them every 1500-2000 miles

 

Yes it is, The guys at comptech actually mentioned it to me for anyone who can't find a UNI Cleaning kit.

Easiest is still option 1
