Motorway spray, the grit thrown up by traffic, gravel car parks at the end of a pass road, hay dust on a back road in August — a touring bike collects all of it, and it collects it over distances the other three will not cover in a season. That is the setting the Sprint Filter SM272S F1-85 has to be judged in, and the honest verdict is that it is the wrong medium for most Tracers. The P08 F1-85 is rated at 85 microns against the standard P08 at 80: it flows 15,000 litres per square metre per second instead of 5,050, and retention is what it pays with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRacing-specification dry polyester rated at 85 microns, flowing 15,000 l\/m²\/sec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoarser than the 80-micron P08 — a deliberate trade, and the wrong side of it for dusty touring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree of oil throughout its life, so the intake sensors stay out of it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose to twice the medium area of an ordinary performance filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrops into the unmodified standard airbox, needs no remap and leaves homologation alone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCleanable and reusable for the life of the machine; the guarantee runs for two years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSustained load is not a flow problem\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe way a loaded Tracer works its engine is by duration, not by ceiling: an hour at motorway speed two-up, a long climb in third with luggage, then another day of the same. None of that asks the airbox for more than it already delivers. What those hours do produce is an enormous volume of air through the element, and everything suspended in it arrives at the medium. On a touring schedule the filter is being asked for exactly the quality the racing medium has traded away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe media that fit this bike\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFiner weave, more held back, less flow — that is the whole rule, and it reads in both directions. For a Tracer 9 or Tracer 9 GT used the way most of them are, the standard P08 at 80 microns and 5,050 litres per square metre per second is the specification written for mixed road use. Where dust is a routine part of the route, gravel approaches and dry back roads included, the P14 goes very much further at 14 microns and gives up flow to do it, at 1,800 litres. Both are choices in favour of what a tourer actually meets. The racing element is listed for this airbox because it fits, and makes sense here only for a Tracer that spends real time on a circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompressed air from the clean face outwards handles the routine and takes minutes. After a hard season, lukewarm water with a mild detergent and a rinse until the water runs clear does the rest. Drying happens in open air and is taken to completion; heat and naked flame are never part of it, and the element must be dry through before it goes back in. Nothing is oiled at any point.
