The air filter of a dirt bike is very important. All the dust that you ride through goes into your bike and gets caught in this foam filter. This filter needs to stay clean because with out it the air flow that your bike needs won't happen. With out the air flow you will notice a lack of power, throttle response, and performance in your bike. Which will be no fun when you go riding.
So every few rides you should access your air filter and clean it well, or you may need to purchase a new air filter. While you have your air filter removed from your bike make sure to take a flash like and inspect the inside of the the air box to make sure there are no holes that dirt could get into.
