Air filters By belen1705 (Read 635 times)

Thanks to rapidjim I am now the proud owner of a new Ice Bear Viking Trike. Had a bit of a time getting it going but it all worked out thanks to Jim's patience.

I have noticed that the air filter does not seem adequate for the conditions around my home in New Mexico. Needless to say we do have a little dust around here in the desert SW even on pavement.

What I would like is recommendations on a proper air filter to allow free breathing and still provide adequate protection. I have read about some racing filters, etc. but not being an old hand at scootering I would appreciate some input from experienced owners.

So far my only mods are adding a couple bags for "stuff" and additional tail lights and see me lights on the front, New Mexicans are noted for not seeing bicycles, scooters and such. Looking forward to getting it to smooth out a little. That one banger sure is a great massage machine.

Any help please!

Well, since no one uses an aftermarket air filter, I will try a couple parts dealer for advice!

Alleys K&N would be the way to go. You may have to re jet.

Thanks for the kind words, glad you are happy. I try and help when I can.
