The air filter is almost never on it. Not because it does not matter, but because checking it has always meant committing to buying one — you open the box, you see something grey, and now you either fit it back or order a part. On a Monkey 125, which spends more of its life parked than most motorcycles, that is exactly the wrong incentive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-layer woven polyester, run dry: 80 µm at 5,050 l\/m²\/sec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo oil at any point in its life, so nothing to dose and nothing to migrate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSits in the series airbox in place of the paper panel, nothing modified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbout twice the working surface of a typical performance element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e93.13 % of 100-micron particles held back, against 76.42 % for four-layer oiled cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCleaned and put back for the life of the machine; two years' warranty from purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePutting the filter on the list\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA washable element changes the economics of looking. Opening the box costs ten minutes and nothing else: if the element is clean, it goes straight back; if it is not, an air line puts it right and it still goes back. Nobody has to decide whether the state of it justifies a purchase. That sounds like a small thing, and it is — right up to the point where a machine that has stood through a damp winter gets ridden again, and the one item nobody inspected turns out to be the one that changed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it will not do\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt will not make a standard Monkey 125 quicker. A drop-in filter never does that on a standard road machine, and on a 125 the ceiling is set by the licence class long before anything in the intake tract gets a say. The PM179S offers something duller and more real: an intake restriction that starts lower and, because you can restore it whenever you like, stays lower. A paper panel is at its best on the day it goes in and at its worst on the day it comes out, and nothing in between announces itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompressed air on the clean face, worked outwards, so what the weave stopped leaves the way it arrived. If something will not come out dry, lukewarm water with a little mild detergent will lift it — rinse until the water runs clear. Then let it dry in moving air at its own pace. Never heat, never a flame, never refit it damp, and never treat it with anything. The maintenance sheet for the PM179S is in the Downloads tab.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe P08 element for the first-generation Honda Monkey 125: model years 2018 to 2021, frame code JB02, the version with the four-speed gearbox and the airbox cover Honda numbers 17235-K0F-T00. Sprint Filter built the PM179S with an enlarged filtering pack, and that extra depth is exactly why it stops there. From 2022 Honda fitted a new engine, a five-speed box and a redesigned cover (17235-K0F-T60), and with the PM179S inside, that cover no longer closes. For a 2022-or-later Monkey (JB03 or JB05) the matching part is SM302, made to the dimensions of the Honda element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not use the original Honda filter number to decide: 17210-K0F-T00 is the same on both generations. Count the gears, read the frame code, or check the part number on the airbox cover.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sprint Filter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53531228504330,"sku":"PM179S","price":67.59,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/PM179S.png?v=1787215555","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/sprint-filter-p08-air-filter-honda-monkey-125","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
