All those 2 stroke lovers out there with "wet" air filters.

Do you prefer a soak and squeeze in 2 stroke oil, a spray with aerosol filter spray or something else?

Thanks.

Bit of a soak and squeeze man myself Dirty, and yes K&N do a filter oil, but it's an unnesessary expense in my opinion. 2 stroke oil's just as good, I reckon mate.

Some 2 stroke oil in an old kitchen cleaner spray bottle, that's been cleaned out, usually does the trick.

Cheers Nev.

Always been a pour and squeeze man myself but when I got the TS I brought a tin of filter oil and used that. It is really thick though and don't know if the bike is struggling to suck air. I have just changed the foam and gone back to the pour and squeeze. Will see how it goes.

Also got some closed cell foam for the airbox seal while I was at it.
