Sprint Filter draws this weave for engines held near full throttle for minutes at a time and rates it at 15,000 l\/m²\/sec, three times the flow figure of the standard panel for the same airbox. On a heavyweight tourer that leaves one narrow question worth answering before anything else: how often does this machine spend a sustained stretch asking its intake for everything it has?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWoven polyester run dry, with no oil applied when new and none after any wash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFiltration rating 85 microns at a rated flow of 15,000 l\/m²\/sec, the highest in the range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetention measured at 95.22 % of 100-micron particles; the standard weave returned 93.13 %\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour-layer oiled cotton reached 76.42 % in that same published comparison\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement in the series airbox: nothing cut, nothing moved, no remapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCleaned and refitted rather than replaced, two years of warranty from purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe condition this weave was drawn for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA flow rating is a ceiling, and ceilings are only met under load. Long sealed-road miles at legal speeds, however many of them there are, do not hold an engine against that ceiling; a run of full-throttle pulls with corners in between does. Most Challengers will never see the second sort of day, and for them the standard 80-micron cloth is the sensible element while this one is capacity bought and never called upon. Where it earns its place is a machine worked hard on open roads by an owner who already knows the answer without having to guess at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is not being claimed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt will not make the motorcycle stronger. A filter dropped into an unmodified airbox adds no power to a standard Challenger, whatever its rating, because intake, fuelling and exhaust were developed and homologated with an element in the middle of them. Nor is a more open weave free of consequence at the other end: this is the least restrictive medium listed here, and where the air carries a steady fine load the same housing is catalogued with a 14-micron nonwoven at 1,800 l\/m²\/sec that goes the other way. What is real is a low intake resistance that comes back to its original figure at every cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAir first, and chemistry only where air fails. Hold the line to the clean face of the PM237S F1-85 and work outward, so dust leaves along the route it took coming in. Where a wet month has left a film behind, lukewarm water with a little mild detergent lifts it; rinse until the water runs clear. Dry it in circulating air at room temperature and nowhere near a radiator, heat gun or naked flame, since heat is what finishes polyester. It is refitted dry, with nothing applied to the weave.
