I filled the sink with warm water with 3/4 cup of liquid washing detergent ( for clothes ). Before immersing the filter I sprayed the filter pleats generously with Shout stain remover. Then set it in the warm sudsy water. Let it sit for about 10 minutes and then swished it around. Then rinsed it clean with warm water directed from the inside out. Came out looking real clean. It's now hanging in our upstairs shower from the shower head and I suspect it will take a good 24 hours to dry. It would be a shame to treat such a sturdy and expensive air filter as just a throwaway when it cleans up real nice. This is the first time I've cleaned the ULY air filter and it has about 11,000 miles on the bike. I've always cleaned my other bike filters and it works for me. By the way, K&N filters are to be cleaned in roughly the same manner and these Buell filters seem as good a quality except that they're not oiled. Quality |

simple green works well for cleaning filters. |
