Sprint Filter PM186S F1-85 air filter

The facts.

DescriptionThe whole story▼

Read the Sprint Filter media table from the bottom up and it behaves like a ladder: the T12 at 7 microns, the P14 at 14, the P037 at 37, the P08 at 80, each rung giving away retention and buying airflow. The P08 F1-85 does not sit on that ladder at all, although its name makes it look like the next rung past the P08. The 85 is not a pore size; the medium is a different, patented weave of polyester threads from 22 µm in diameter, rated at 15,000 litres per square metre per second of airflow against 5,050. Roughly three times the air, with no step backwards in filtration. On a 150 cc single such as the T-150, the only question is whether that air is wanted.

Key Features

  • Polyester for competition, used dry: threads from 22 µm diameter, 15,000 l/m²/sec of airflow
  • Not a coarser weave than the standard P08's 80 microns — the flow is not paid for with filtration
  • Dry throughout, so no film can settle on the throttle body or the sensors
  • Twice as much filtering surface, near enough, as other performance filters
  • The original airbox takes it unaltered — nothing modified, no remap, homologation as it was
  • Washable, reusable, warranted for two years from purchase

The figure that settles the question

Sprint Filter's own comparison measures this medium retaining 95.22 per cent of 100-micron test particles against 93.13 per cent for the standard P08. It only looks like a contradiction if the 85 is read as a pore size, and it is part of the name, nothing more. The racing weave flows more and, in this test, also holds back slightly more. For the fine particles that settle slowly and stay airborne longest, the specialist is a finer medium such as the P14, not either of these two.

Who the extra air is for

Air demand is set by the engine alone: displacement, revolutions and throttle opening. A 150 cc single asks for a modest volume even at full song, and the standard airbox was dimensioned to cover it with room in hand. Tripling the element's flow capability hands a surplus to a machine that already had one. For ordinary use the sensible reading of the table is the ordinary one: the P08 at 80 microns and 5,050 for road and track, the P14 at 14 microns and 1,800 where dust governs, and PM186S F1-85 kept for a machine that actually competes.

Care and cleaning

Compressed air on the clean side, driven outwards, is the between-times service. When it asks for more, lukewarm water and a mild detergent will lift what remains; rinse until the water runs clear. Dry it right through in open air — never over heat, never near a flame — and refit it dry. Nothing is oiled at the finish, because the polyester never was. The maintenance sheet is kept in the Downloads tab.

Fitment & Compatibility

Made for the Yamaha T-150, 2015 to 2026, and a direct replacement in the standard airbox. The same element is listed for six model names across that period; the full list is in the Fitment tab.
