All that negative feedback’s that I hear about air filters are may be the ones that do not maintain or understand how things work.
Never seen anybody explain like this before, now this changed my perception on air filters. Thanks
Thanks. Happy to hear that you found this useful Cheers!
Thanks Bosky for this useful info, I'm gonna use BMC to my RR310.
I'm grateful to met you in IBW 2023. Hope you remember Riders of Davanagere.
Yes I do! Cheers!
So bro, how is the RR310 doing with the BMC filters?
I suggest you don't throw away the stock air filter even if you are using BMC or any aftermarket air filter because when you send it to service centre for periodic service, they just blast it with compressed air always, i have seen even the "premium" 3rd party service points with "trained" professionals do it like that. so just replace the stock air filter when you send it for service and replace it back after servicing and clean the cotton air filter yourself or those who know how to clean it with cleaning kit of specific brand of your air filter
Super suggestion, thanks much.
I might have realised it after going through it, you saved my money 😄… helpful suggestion!
Good idea
Lots of learning...from authentic guy..with ensuring from your side also..great..
Now I will install BMC in my bikes..
Waiting more more such videos..love to see your each and every video...
Always waiting for new video..
Learning a lot from you guys..
Great job..
Happy to hear that you found the video useful. And thanks for your kind words. Cheers!
Was preferring stock air filters compared to performance air filters. This video changed my perception on air filters. Good information. Cheers
Yes, much useful information was shared by BMC
Ravi. Thanks.
Hands down the best filter ive ever used.
Over my life time I've tried most brands
Im really glad to see that you can now get them for enfields
Good job guys to all involved
Keep up the great work 👌👍🙏
Thanks for sharing your experience. Cheers!
Dear sir, you have been a very good researcher and a teacher for us all and for me personally I've learnt a lot from you. Thank you for all the efforts you put forth and I'm here to make a humble request, that I own CB300F and there are no BMC made air filters for this model. Kindly support us using your power sir.
Thanks.
All BMC filters come from Italy and they decide which models to make for and I’ll check on this possibility.
I just got the BMC air filter for my hunter 350. Low end torque has increased I feel and the acceleration is smooth!. All over power may not have a big noticeable difference. But better than stock for sure.
Great to hear!
cost and can u send exact link for the filter u bought?
same can you send the link and does it affect mileage
premium things need premium care ..... very informative video 👍
Thanks 🙂
Thanks for the elaboration on much awaited topic Bosky.
Ravi is a thorough professional; excellent explanation. 🎉
🙏🙏
it was a nice tutorial thanks to bear uncle and Mr. Ravi.
Always welcome.
Thanks for the detailed info Bosky and Ravi. I am gonna buy one soon :D
Our pleasure! Cheers!
After seeing your review I bought KTM 390 adv, it’s just 1 week old and when do you recommend to change the stock filters with performance filters? Should I wait till 1st service? And Thanks Bosky for making the videos, I’m big fan of your work here.
Congrats on the purchase. Wishing you years of riding pleasure on the 390A.
I suggest that you change filters post warranty expiry because the dealership may void the warranty if you fit the BMC. So better stick with the OE element for now.
Give it at least a year. Cheers!
Congrats on your purchase of the KTM390Adv. You will love the ride on it and will keep yearning for more trips.
really very informative video
🙏
Noob question. Does the better air intake also help reduce the engine heat? Im learning a lot about bikes from your videos. Thank you 🙏
Not necessarily. More air means better combustion.
Bro bmc air Will use on KTM rc 200
So if we change air filter to a performance one, then we should also opt for performance ECU mods? to compensate extra air.
Not required. The stock ECU has enough software room to auto adjust to this BMC.
However, the adsition of a FuelX module if available for your model will help throttle response.
What about aftermarket free flow exhaust, is it necessary? If engine inhales better it needs to exhale better as well right?
@ismailmarikar3145 will help
@@bigbearbangalore Genuine aftermarket exhausts are costly, if it's necessary for an air filter upgrade my thought is to keep the bike stock. Btw I ride a cb300r and thanks for your reply
@ismailmarikar3145 genuine items will cost more because they are genuine and much effort and resources have been invested in developing them.
I used a k&N removed the stock covering on filter (for sound), bike babu wanted engine boring sooner than expected. Lesson learnt.
🙏
Was expecting the SM650 review up-next. However, this is good info.
Yes that was the plan. The SM is busy I guess and hance could not be spared for a few hours yet. Hopeful coming week. Thanks.
Thanks for this informative video..
Glad it was helpful!
@art of unwinding Somehow, my wavelength matches with your biking instincts perhaps due to fondness for biking and quest for excellence.
I like your indepth analysis and the format which is delightful. Looking forward for your reviews 👍
I have scram 411 obd2 i m confused.. is it closed loop system cause RE has changed its Fi system to indian manufacturer so my question is will bmc + FF exhaust is enough with stock ECU? Or do i need a piggy back system
BMC & FuelX will make a perceptible change in throttle response even in the latest BS6.
Race Dynamics ECU & FF exhaust will bump up Torque and BHP.
One item will.not make a perceptible difference. It's a combination that does.
@@bigbearbangalore thank you for the response.. I had one more query a feed back would be appreciated, right now I m looking to invest in bmc air filter, fuel x lite and FF exhaust can I swap FF exhaust with power tronics ecu, as I m right now budget constrained, coz I saw your 411 muddy hog video and u are still running stock exhaust, my main concern is weight reduction
Stretch and go for the whole hog and you'll have a significantly fast motorcycle. If you have to drop an item, drop the FuelX and add the rest!
Is it compulsory to change spark plug and ecu if we change the stock to bmc air filter. They are saying that will more required. Please make a video on it.
Not required
Fortnine has tested all the types of air filters that could be the very good information about after Market air filters which one we should use or not
Yes, the entertainer, F9, has done this.
Sir will it effect the engine in the long run a guy from royal enfield told it will effect the intake of air and effect engine health i use royal enfield himalayan 450
I don't think it will have any negative effect. But warranty may get affected.
Hello sir ...I really appreciate your content and knowledge you share through your video..I recently purchased the new KTM RC 390 (2023) model...Just wanted to ask a genuine question...Will BMC performance air filter will provide any significant changes in my bike if i use it in my stock exhaust and stock ecu? If yes .Then what are the changes?..
Thank you..(Satyam)
Can run BMC with no changes to ECU or exhaust. No issues.
Amazing interaction. Would love to see a similar video on the himalayan as well after the suspension upgrade. Also, Is it Basky or Bosky?
Hi! Thank you.
What do you wish to see about the Himalayan? And it is Bosky. Cheers!
@@bigbearbangalore thank you Bosky. You may share things like how different does the new suspension feel when compared to the stock one and you may specify the reasons for the upgrade and all that.
Got it. Yes, once the Muddy Hog 411 is ready we shall share a detailed video on that. Thanks.
Is it required to put a free flow exhaust after BMC air filter
Not required.
@@bigbearbangalorethank you very much for this info I had this confusion for many days
Sir l installed RED ROOSTER EXHAUST on my Honda350 RS. Now to get good performance l want to put BMC filter. Is it okay. BMC filter goes life long or need to change after some kilometres.Please suggest
You can install
@Big bear customs Hello,
I recently bought the SM650, planning to change exhaust is it required to change stock air filter?stock air filter will be enough to support aftermarket exhaust ?
Also I heard the after market airfilter like BMC and others consume more dust as it consumes more air, so bit confused whether I should go with it if I wish.
Please advice!!!
Thank you!!!
Exhaust and air-filter can be changed independent of each other. Together they can deliver improved throttle response.
BMC filters better than stock filters.
Hello Bosky sir, Great video. good to learn something new . I have a hunter 350 , can we use the BMC filter for the Hunter 350 ? what are the other pehripheral works that needs to eb addressedif we can go with this filter sir ?
Thanks. You can use. No change required in any other aspect.
Thanks for insightful information Sir.
Apart from good low end torque and better acceralation...does using BMC air filer will give better fuel efficiency ?
I use HIMALIYAN 450
Not perceptible
Im going with way2speed air filter for my Interceptor 650. How does that compare to this?
Waiting for this kind of stuff
Hope you find it useful. Cheers!
Sir, i own int 650. I completed 6000kms. I dont go for aftermarket exhaust, but if i use after market air filter does it make my bike better in mileage/power with out damaging engine? Im not getting clear answer anywhere sir!
If it helps my int 650 in mileage its a great thing to me, but with out causing any harm to my engine. Its my first bike from my parents😊. I want to keep it
Hello. Mileage unlikely to improve. Air filter + exhaust = better throttle response.
And no damage with air filter if a reputed brand is used, like BMC. Regards.
Great video! I installed a BMC filter on my Honda CB350. How often do you suggest I should clean it?
Inspect every 5,000 kms whether it needs cleaning. And irrespective, clean once every 10,000 kms.
@@bigbearbangalore Thank you
Sir I'm a student and i want performance for my royal Enfield 350 classic reborn 23 what can i do for under 5 to 10 k budget??
There's not much performamce one can get from a Royal Enfield.
Try the FuelX and BMC.
After installing performance air filter into the RE Himalayan bs6 do we have to make some adjustments to the ECU?
Not needed.
Well good to know somethings can be repaired ( as in this case cleaned ) ... environmental impact is lower than use n throw..... so yes would prefer one such filter over OEM anyday
👍
Hello sir I really like your content and information that you provide with your knowledge ! I have a question Can I install BMC Air filter in my Hunter 350 ? Will there be any performance upgrade?
Yes you can. No perceptible change.
given your new found shtick for light light light motorcycles, do you still have the Vstrom 650 or have you sold it already?
I still have it and enjoy it on big open roads. And if and when I plan to change, I will move to a lighter machine. For now since it's my 2nd motorcycle, it's perfectly good as it is. Cheers!
Hi B, Appreciate the aweosme work! Will it help the performance on a cabeurator machine? And will I need a free flow exhaust to support the change. I ride a BS3 himalayan.
Thanks.
Yes, it can help a carb engine too. May be 1/4 turn richer on the MC screw.
@@bigbearbangalore will I need a free after market free flow exhaust to support the change with the BMC air filter?
Sir ,As explained...is removal of Air Filter is so easy that one can DIY before dropping for service center ?
Depends on the model.
Hello sir I really like the content on your channel...,
I had a question can I use the BMC air filter on NS 200 Bs7 and if not which one would you suggest....
Thanks. And am not sure if it's available for the NS.

Hello sir..
How do I contact this person sir. I have a 2020 Hayabusa and i have few doubts like Is remapping required for this BMC air filter or not, change in the performance like bhp, improvement in the smoothness etc.
Check on Powerhaus India
Myths busted... facts corrected.. thanks to U
Will this air filter result in drop in mileage since more fuel is needed to compensate air fuel ratio ?
Thanks.
More air means better combustion means in theory less fuel for same output.
I saw you installing bmc in your scrambler 400x. What was odo read when you did this change. Does this lead to damage of vehicle warrenty ? Also do you see gains with this installation
Reading about 5,000 kms and yes warranty can be voided.
I need one for my car and one for my classic 500 2015 model. Can you suggest where i can get exact one. This video is not normy video. Its informatica
Please contact Powerhaus India on Insta or powerhaus.in for nearest retailer. Thanks.
Sirs, where may we buy in India (preferably Chennai/Bangalore) original BMC air filters for RE Classic reborn without worrying that it’s a duplicate?
Hello. WhatsApp 6364 887338 Monday to Saturday 10am to 6pm.
Sir, i was very confused about buying bmc air filter since i heard the aftermarket air filter like BMC can't filter air properly like OEM filter does. Since i live in a dusty area i was scared but now feels like I'll order bmc air filter for my Mt-15. The question is, will my stock ECU adjust to the bmc air filter. I own a BS6 Mt15 version 1
Stock ECU will adjust. And BMC filters better than stock. But, if you are so concerned, stay with stock for peace of mind.
I need one advice from you sir, i bought one made in india dry airfilter for twins 650. But it has very poor soft construction. I want to move it from that. My horse run on stock exhaust. Do you sure that bmc airfilter with stand indian dusty conditions? Because i dont see official bmc official website to buy it. So im bit skeptical that may i can get first copy or duplicate. Can you share your thoughts
You can use BMC and it works well. Check with BMC where you can buy genuine filters.
Do I need a free after market free flow exhaust to support the change with the BMC air filter for my Himalayan BS6?
Not necessary. Useful though.
I’ve just bought a Duke 390 Gen 3 and got the Fuel X Pro on order, but I’m struggling to find a BMC air filter for this model. Any suggestions for alternative air filters until BMC releases one for Gen 3? Thanks in advance!
Sorry none.
Do you suggest for a Nexon petrol variant. ? Does OEM ECM had adjustable ratio Petrol input.
OEM ECU on motorcycles have room to adjust for a performance filter.
Check wiith BMC on cars.
What difference it will make if i ride my bike on mountains like Ladakh
It can help the engine get a little more air at high altitudes.
Hi can do like this on spark plug and Free Flow slip on exhaust . I am riding Himalayan
Hi. Will check on this possibility. Thanks for the suggestion.
Comparison btw BMC air filter v/s Ngage hyper flow air filter's for R15 version 3
Which is better sir??
I've used BMC and find it good. I don't know about Ngage.
I just spent 6k on this filter, and it says spend more 2k for cleaner😶 please suggest me some other method of cleaning
I know not
Retuning of engine or mapping need to be updated if we switch to OEM to BMC air filters?
Not required
Sir, i have query, Will there be any heating issues if i install BMC + powerage short type on my int 650? Awaiting your response before i make a purchase. Thank you.
No such issues.
Thank You sir

@big bear : Do we need to remap the ECU after installing the Performance Air Filters like BMC and K&N. Please suggest
No mapping needed.
@@bigbearbangalore Thanks
Is BMC filter Increase Performance??? Please tell me. Im using Ktm rc 200___2021 model
It can
@big bear customs Sir which performance air filter would you suggest for Royal Enfield Classic 350 BS3(2012) model. I have fitted Bullet 500 carburettor on it and right now I have UNI air filter and the air filter is not that effective and carburetor is not utilised to it's full potential because of the air filter. Please suggest me sir if it's BMC then which specific model of BMC?
Model specific filters are available as OEM replacement. So check with BMC India to know the model that will fit the OEM airbox on your vehicle.
@@bigbearbangaloreThanks for such a prompt response sir. I will definitely check but I would like to still understand/hear from you that do you suggest BMC air filter which fits in the OEM air filter box or which fits directly on carburetor?
Is it available for Suzuki SF155? I know it’s stupid to ask but is it available?? 😅😅
Not sure. You'd need to check with @bmcairfilterindia
what is difference between bmc and motowing airfilter for classic 350 which one will be good with redrooster exhaust
Sorry, I am not familiar with Motowing.
Do I really need BMC cleaning/oil kit for BMC Air Filter or can I use K&N Cleaning Kit?
I guess the products are the same, but just under different brand?
Contact BMC to know.
Is it mandatory to upgrade the ECU with fuelX like things after upgrading air filter?
Not mandatory. Will help deliver better throttle response.
I’m owning a gt 650 with stock airfilters, spark plugs with red roosters slip on exhaust
I thought like free flow air filters are needed when the exhaust channel is totally free flow(without catalytic converter)
Am I correct or shall I change the filters and spark plugs too and will more air intake to the engine spoil the engine?
These are performance air-filters and not a "free flow" as such. Ratehr its an improved flow.
This increase in air flow when combined with a performance exhaust helps deliver it's full potential. The stock ECU has enough room to accommodate this. However when the ECU is upgraded too, the triple combo provides maximum bump up in performance.
@@bigbearbangalore I’m on my way to upgrade my filters and plugs….thank you….👍🏻😄
HII SIR
FROM WHERE ILL GET BMC AIR FILTER FOR SUPER METEOR 650 CAN YOU SHARE THE LINK SIR
Is BMC filter for Himalayan 450 available for sale? It's not posted on their website.
Not yet.
Hi sir I’m using interceptor 650 with stock setup, city mileage is 17.5-18, when I changed my car(D) filter I’m getting better mileage. So I’m planing to change on my bike also, does it improve mileage? Is it good to use it on stock exhaust?
Not likely to improve fuel economy. But may be possible.
Hi, if i put in BMC air filter on my Gixxer sf 250 with stock ecu and stock exhaust will it cause any trouble for the engine since im not going to retune the ecu? Thanks!
No issued for the engine. There's enough room on the ECU map to account for the marginally better air inflow.
SIR,which air filter u suggest for Xpulse 200 4v BMC ? K&N or Ngage?
I use BMC.
Does new i20 petrol require remap? Ecu is locked and not cracked yet 😢

No need to remove the catcon.
@@bigbearbangalore but some one is telling me if the air inflow increases the outflow needs to increase too. Otherwise it will affect the engine.
Am not aware of this effect. 🙏
What about the fuel economy ?? Better air supply leads to better combustion..and lower fuel economy ??
Better combustion = better power with same amount of fuel = Less unburnt fuel = better fuel economy
