The BMC FM302/04 motorcycle air filter for the 2002–2003 Yamaha YZF-R1 is designed to provide greater airflow than original paper filters. The filter media is cotton gauze impregnated with low-viscosity oil, while the mesh alloy frame has an epoxy coating to protect it from fuel vapors and oxidation caused by moisture.
“Full Molding” technology forms the filter from soft rubber as a single piece, with no bonded joints at the corners, thereby avoiding the risk of breakage.
