DescriptionThe whole story

The BMC FM716/20 replacement air filter is engineered specifically for the Ducati Panigale 1199 and 1299 (2011-2018), combining race-derived filtration technology with rigorous international test standards to deliver measurably cleaner airflow and genuine engine protection. Tested to internationally recognised quality and performance protocols, this filter meets the demands of riders who refuse to compromise between outright performance and long-term engine integrity.

Key Features

  • Tested to international standards, verifying filtration efficiency and airflow performance for use on road and track alike.
  • Four-layer cotton gauze construction, oil-impregnated with a low-viscosity formula, maximises air permeability while maintaining exceptional particle capture.
  • Aluminium mesh inner lining shields the cotton medium from petrol vapours and oxidation, preserving filter integrity over extended service intervals.
  • Rubber frame prevents cracking and ensures a secure, leak-free seat within the Panigale airbox — no bypass air, no contamination risk.
  • Washable and reusable design eliminates the recurring cost and waste of disposable paper elements.
  • Higher airflow rate than the original paper filter, reducing pressure drop and unlocking the full breathing potential of the 1199 and 1299 engine.

Race Technology for the Street and Circuit

BMC developed the FM716/20 using the same four-layer cotton gauze architecture found in their motorsport programme. Each layer is precision-woven and then treated with a low-tack oil that holds fine dust and carbon particles without impeding the passage of air. The result is a filter that consistently outflows a standard paper element while trapping a greater proportion of contaminants — a combination that directly benefits throttle response, mid-range torque delivery and top-end breathing on the Panigale's high-revving L-twin.

Durability and Long-Term Value

Where a paper filter is a consumable, the FM716/20 is a long-term investment. The aluminium mesh core resists deformation and petrol vapour degradation, while the rubber surround maintains its shape and seal across repeated cleaning cycles. When the filter eventually requires servicing, it can be washed with a dedicated BMC cleaning kit, re-oiled and returned to service — reducing both running costs and environmental waste compared with single-use alternatives.
