September 3, 20196 yr Gets real dusty, here in the riding area, and my 2017 Gasgas seems to get a lot of the fine dust into the airbox. I blocked off the intake from the front, and cut an opening in the top lid, and made a baffle under the hole. So far it is reducing the amount of dust that enters the airbox. Art
September 3, 20196 yr Theres no need to worry about the dust and mud in the box it is not a airbox as such , the box is before the filter, =the filter is on the out let of the box so whats in the box has not been filtered yet
September 5, 20196 yr Do you have any pics of the modification? I would be interested to see what you came up with. I've been meaning to at least seal the airbox better on my '17 Agree with On It however wouldn't it be beneficial to limit the amount of dust entering the airbox as it in turn would be less dirty air for the filter to well...filter?

September 5, 20196 yr Author The opening I cut is in the black of the decal and not noticeable. The baffle under the hole is a simple piece of plastic, taped in place. The front opening to the airbox, is blocked with some filter foam, I had , and oiled some. Still the intake gets it's share of dusty air, but seems to go longer between filter cleaning. It's a little faster to check the filter now. Art Edited September 5, 20196 yr by sherco70
September 6, 20196 yr It looks like you are not taking the normal precaution of applying grease to the walls of the airbox to trap dust?
September 6, 20196 yr It helps if you split the 2 halves of the air box and seal it with Stikaflex available from motor factors,a lot of c--p comes in through the unsealed from factory joint
