Anyone using the TUSK brand air filter? Looks solid, and less than half the price than the Uni one here. 

Can it be user with the stock lid?

 

I've ordered one and hope it's good given the price.

Did you find the Tusk here in Canada? Im not having much luck with a Tenere specific search.

No, I ordered it from RM. Cheaper than paying the middle man most times.

It *looks* like it would work, but I'm not sure if it's built for a stock lid or not

Gnarly parts in BC sells Tusk products.

They didn't list it the last time I looked but should be able to source it for you.

 

Send them a message with the tusk part number and they will probably bring one in for you.  I have had good luck dealing with them for a few items. 

I have a UNI on the shelf right now but will probably try to get another foam filter over the winter and the Tusk looks like a good product so far.

Yes, the Tusk air filter works well. It seems to have more surface area than the Uni foam filter.

Make sure you oil it. They come dry I think.

Has anyone sourced a good prefilter sock for easy change on a long trip?

Once, on our yrip in Bolivia at 3600 m altitude, our DR600 couldnot pull up the steep hill due to blocked foam airfilter. We took it out and put a nylonstocking from my mom over the inlet snorkle. It worked and catched dust. Easy to clean too. Since then i always wear nylons on my trips...

Hello,

 

     I've had my tusk filter for a while and I ride in dust pretty often since when off road I'm usually in a group. I've been surprised how little dust actually makes it into the filter. I kept the snorkel and cut the part under the lid shorter. I ordered a couple of them. I keep one oiled and ready to go for when I change them. So there's no wait and then I clean the other dirty one. I've been really happy with them so far. No a spec of anything past the filter using the "No Toil" brand cleaner and oil. It been my preferred cleaning/oiling product for years. Cheers!

@jeep.kevin Welcome to the forum and thanks for the feedback.   Maybe put a location in your signature for reference as Alabama red dirt is different than Sierra Nevada granite dust. 😉

Just so everyone is aware, they are no longer selling these. A Facebook group mentioned they may be recalled. I chatted with RMATV and they said they have stock but no longer selling.

May I ask what Facebook group you saw information on this? I just installed the Tusk filter and wonder if that was a mistake

I am looking for a prefilter for my snorkel-less primary filter. The Tusk filters are (again?) available on the web site. Has anyone used one of these upside down as a prefilter?

My solution is a Thingyverse oversized intake thingy and a piece of dirtbike filter ziptied around said thingy.filter 1.jpgfilter 2.jpg

which way would the tariff go?

Simple and easy solution. Unfortunately I don’t have a printer.

I paid $15nzd for a printer guy to print. Too easy.
