To all who uses Scotch Brite, 3m brand, fake brands or what so ever brands that was made for cleaning kitchen utensils, pots, frying pan etc. as replacement for your carburetor air cleaner is a BIG NO!NO!NO!NO!..... this is the purpose of the said material



Uploaded with ImageShack.us..

With this kind of material that has abrasive mineral is like riding your bike in Sahara desert without air filter in your carb. It is better to ride your bike without air filter than using abrasive material like scotch brite brands., etc.

I hope this will help and enlighten you. Its not yet late.

An abrasive is a material, often a mineral, that is used to shape or finish a workpiece through rubbing which leads to part of the workpiece being worn away. While finishing a material often means polishing it to gain a smooth, reflective surface it can also involve roughening as in satin, matte or beaded finishes.Common uses for abrasives include grinding, polishing, buffing, honing, lapping, and sanding

sir IMHO regarding scotch bright its not advisable to use into our t135 because hot air becomes the scrotch to brittle then pulverize in time then it goes to our carb and clog into it,, unless if you chage it regularly once a 2 days i think but for long lasting not advisable , coz my friend did this to his r150 when we checked the carb we saw there are lot of dirt looks like sand but its not sand when we checked the air filter with scotch brite like we saw its already pulverized.. sorry for my bad english hope anyone got my point

for all the modifications were doin to our bike lets make it sure that we check back once in a while because its not guaranteed to last esp those cheap upgrades...

did you change your fuel and air mixture when you change your air cleaner to hi-flow or when you removed your air filter element ??..

AFAIK, yes.. you need to find the right mix after modifying or removing these filter(s)..

but be careful with those metal screws, it might be loose due to vibrations and eventually sucked into your carb...
