The facts.
DescriptionThe whole story▼
An air filter is the one piece of touring equipment that cannot be adjusted en route. Tyre pressures drop for a gravel section and go back up afterwards, luggage gets repacked at every stop, but the element fitted in the garage is the element that meets every kilometre of the trip. That is what sets PM01T12 apart from most touring decisions: at 7 µm it is chosen for the worst air on the route rather than the average, and it is worth being clear-eyed about how much of a route that really is.
Key Features
- Polyester special nonwoven, dry when it leaves the factory and dry for its whole service life
- Filtration rated at 7 µm — the closest weave in the Sprint Filter range, and the slowest
- Rated throughput of 560 l/m²/sec, against 5,050 for the standard cloth in the same housing
- Around double the working area of a typical performance element, which is what makes a dense medium practical as a panel
- Straight swap for the factory element inside the series airbox: nothing to cut, nothing to reposition
- Washable and reusable, backed by two years of warranty from the date of purchase
One decision for the whole route
Most of a long trip on a V85 Travel is sealed road, and on sealed road the dense cloth gives back nothing that can be felt. Its case is built on the other days: the piste that turns out longer than the map suggested, a week of harvest traffic, a diversion through roadworks, the last twenty kilometres to a mountain refuge. Since the panel cannot be swapped at the roadside, the honest way to decide is to ask whether those days are part of the plan or merely possible. If they are only possible, the standard weave and a cleaning stop afterwards is the better-proportioned answer.
What the exchange costs a loaded machine
Finer means more retained and less passed — one exchange, not a ranking, and no step in it makes a series motorcycle stronger. A V85 Travel carrying luggage and a pillion asks for more air than the same engine unladen, but it asks for it steadily rather than in the wide-open bursts where a flow ceiling would show. The real return is a resistance that stays where cleaning puts it, on a machine whose airbox may be a long way from the next workshop.
Care and cleaning
Compressed air is the primary tool for PM01T12 and direction is what makes it work: blow outward from the clean face so the load is pushed back out of the medium. Water with a mild detergent handles what air leaves behind; rinse it out fully and give the element time to dry in circulating air. Never dry it with heat or a flame, and never treat it with oil or any dressing — it is refitted dry. The maintenance sheet sits in the Downloads tab.
