One is the standard woven panel, 80 microns and 5,050 l\/m²\/sec. The other is this one, a 7-micron nonwoven rated at 560 — a ninth of the flow. Four of the six machines built around this engine are offered something in between; this one is not. There is no half-step to buy while the decision is postponed, which makes the question unusually clean: is the air this bike breathes loaded, or is it not?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry special nonwoven filtering at 7 microns, the finest medium Sprint Filter makes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated flow of 560 l\/m²\/sec, against 5,050 for the standard woven panel in the same box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo oil in the specification: dry when supplied, dry when refitted after cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement in the series airbox — no cutting, no adapter, no remapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoughly twice the filtering area of a conventional performance element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCleaned and reused rather than discarded, two years of warranty from the purchase date\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA gap with nothing in it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween 5,050 and 560 l\/m²\/sec lies a factor of nine, and for this machine the catalogue leaves that span empty. The Hypermotard, Monster, Panigale and Streetfighter versions of the platform can be given a 14-micron mat somewhere in the middle; the DesertX V2 is listed with the two ends alone. The reasoning is easy to follow, since this is the model expected to leave the tarmac at all. The consequence is simply that the choice is binary, and it wants to be made against the days that matter rather than the average of a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the ninth is buying\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeven microns is drawn for air where suspended mineral dust is the working environment and not an occasional event: dry tracks, sand, ground with no surface holding it down. There the standard weave passes material an engine would rather not have, and the fine mat holds it. The price is that flow figure, and it is paid on the tarmac approach and the ride home as well as in the dust. That is the trade, and it is a trade — the finer medium is not the better one, only the one drawn for harder air. Neither adds power: an element in an unmodified airbox leaves a standard DesertX V2 exactly as strong as it was.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompressed air is the routine service, held against the clean face of the PM279T12 and worked outwards so the load leaves the way it arrived. After genuinely dirty use, lukewarm water with a mild detergent releases what air will not, rinsed until the water runs off clear. Drying is done in moving air at room temperature and by nothing else: heat guns, radiators and flames destroy the nonwoven before any damage becomes visible. It is refitted dry, with nothing applied.
