Ok, brand new talon. First run was thanksgiving. For a week. I’m a little bothered it was recommended I replace the air filter. Buddy says it’s got a dirt spot in center of it and he recommends I do it. Says it’s quite dark dirty, not light dirty. My bitch? It’s a huge filter! It's about 50 bucks!
Background- it’s at the dealer for first service. I bought it from this dealer. The service manager who I bought it from is a friend of over 35 years. So yeah, there is total honesty in our discussions with each other.
Why do I bitch? Because the weather was rain all week! There was minimal dust even out there do to the raining!
My issue? It’s obvious the air intake channels that intake to only a 4” circular pattern of the filter. And it’s a huge filter! Poor design on Hondas behalf. My other rides filters look fine and they were behind me the whole time as I’m the leader in my group.
Hmmm.....
