    Anybody know of a foam filter...?

    ...for the AT?

    My guess is that foam filter technology, as used on enduro and motocross bikes, would the ideal solution for a washable air filter for our trip through Africa. There'll be dusty bits through northern and southern Africa and that's the sort of conditions motocross bikes are designed to cope with.

    Don't like the look of K&N or other "fabric" filters as the pore size just looks a bit too large for really dusty conditions. Maybe. A K&N would be fine in europe, or central Africa - the bits that are muddy, rather than dusty - but not great in Saharan sand I think.

    Question is, does anyone know of a foam filter being made for the AT?

    Have to wash and re-oil the CRM one so might as well get a re-useable one for the AT...for the same price as two genuine honda ones...
