DescriptionThe whole story▼

Built to a racing specification that the stock filter simply cannot match, the BMC Racing air filter FM955/04RACE slots directly into the Honda CBR 1000 RR airbox for 2017, 2018 and 2019 models and delivers a measurably higher airflow rate without compromising filtration. If you are pushing your CBR with ECU mapping, exhaust upgrades or wider engine modifications, this is the filter that keeps pace with your build.

Key Features

  • Race-grade filter medium engineered for significantly increased airflow compared to the OEM unit, translating directly into improved throttle response and top-end power.
  • Retains the exact dimensions and mounting geometry of the standard Honda filter, making fitment a straight swap with no modifications to the airbox.
  • High-efficiency filtration media protects the engine from contaminants even under elevated airflow conditions — performance and protection are not compromised against each other.
  • Optimised for use alongside ECU remaps and engine modifications where the stock filter becomes a restriction.
  • Distinctive yellow stripe provides instant visual identification at a glance, confirming the Racing specification is in place.
  • Washable and reusable construction consistent with BMC's racing lineage, reducing long-term running costs over disposable paper alternatives.

Premium Construction and Racing Pedigree

BMC has supplied air filtration to racing teams across MotoGP, World Superbike and circuit motorsport for decades, and the FM955/04RACE carries that engineering directly into a road-legal, track-ready package. The filter medium itself is the centrepiece: a multi-layer cotton gauze material, oiled and precision-layered to achieve a filtration efficiency that rivals OEM paper elements while flowing considerably more air volume. The yellow racing stripe is not merely cosmetic — it is a production identifier that distinguishes the Race specification from BMC's standard replacement range, signalling to any mechanic that a higher-flow medium is fitted.

Performance on Road and Track

On a largely stock CBR 1000 RR the gains from a high-flow air filter are modest and complementary. Where the FM955/04RACE truly earns its place is in a modified package: pair it with a full exhaust system and an ECU flash and the filter stops being a restriction, allowing the engine to breathe freely across the entire rev range. Riders who have already invested in engine work will find that the Racing filter is the logical next step to ensure the induction side matches the capability of every other upgraded component.

Fitment and Compatibility

This filter is designed and validated to fit the following Honda model:

  • Honda CBR 1000 RR — model years 2017, 2018 and 2019

The filter replicates the OEM airbox footprint precisely. No cutting, trimming or adapter hardware is required for installation.
