Cast wheels instead of spoked ones, a lower seat, road rubber as standard: BMW built it as the tarmac half of the F range, and most have spent their years commuting and touring. Worth saying before a filter is chosen: the load a road-going intake gathers is not the mineral powder such arguments are usually built around. It is finer, mixed and seasonal, and it behaves differently in the weave.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWoven polyester in a single layer, delivered dry and kept that way — no oil when new, none after cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eP08 specification: 80 µm openings at a rated 5,050 l\/m²\/sec, drawn up for road and track use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread gauge starts at ø 22 microns — the filtering is done by the gaps, not by the strands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClose to double the filtering cloth of other performance elements, folded into the original frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakes the paper panel's place in an untouched airbox: no cutting, no spacers, no fuelling changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServiced and returned to the bike instead of thrown away, under a two-year guarantee from purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat a road-going intake actually swallows\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePollen in spring, insects through the whole warm half of the year, traffic soot, and the fine particulate a wet motorway lifts off its own surface. None of that is the dry, loose powder of a gravel road. Powder sits on a weave and can be blown straight back off it; a summer of insects and pollen leaves something that clings, and air alone will not always take it. There a washable medium has a second method in reserve and paper has none — paper loads in one direction only, and the end of that direction is a bin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe honest size of the benefit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA panel inside the series airbox does not make a standard F 700 GS noticeably stronger, and no element ever has: intake, injection and exhaust were homologated together with a filter already sitting in the box. What changes is the shape of the interval: resistance starts low, climbs as the element loads, and comes back down at a wash instead of drifting until a replacement is due. Sprint Filter's own comparison puts the dry P08 at 93.13 per cent retention of 100-micron test particles against 76.42 per cent for four-layer oiled cotton.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStart with an air line, held against the clean face so the loading leaves the way it arrived. Where a summer has left a residue that will not lift, hand-warm water with a little mild detergent dissolves it; rinse until nothing more colours the water. Then let the PM35S dry by evaporation and give it the time that needs — radiators, hot-air guns and flames all distort polyester — and refit it dry, with nothing applied.

Ten machines from two makes share this housing, the faired 800s that preceded the GS and a Husqvarna Nuda among them; all are named with their years under the Fitment tab.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sprint Filter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53532671312138,"sku":"PM35S","price":244.0,"currency_code":"QAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/PM35S.png?v=1787147217","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-qa\/products\/sprint-filter-p08-air-filter-bmw-f-700-gs","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
