Special 3D Sealing Design
The DNA Air Filter for BMW K 1600 SERIES (2018-19) uses a special 3D design around the sealing surface. DNA developed this design because the sealing surfaces of the original BMW air box can have significant deformation.
To address this challenge, DNA combines the 3D sealing surface with a high-quality EVA foam gasket. As a result, the filter can create a secure seal under the supplied operating conditions.
This sealing design also helps the filter protect the BMW engine by keeping the filtering system properly sealed.
39.00% More Airflow
The DNA filter delivers a 39.00% increase in airflow compared with the BMW stock paper filter.
The DNA filter produces 164.60 CFM, while the BMW stock paper filter produces 118.40 CFM under the specified test conditions. Therefore, the DNA filter provides substantially higher airflow than the OEM filter.
Moreover, DNA designs its replacement air filters to increase horsepower and acceleration while maintaining excellent filtration.
98%-99% Filtration Efficiency
The DNA Air Filter for BMW K 1600 SERIES (2018-19) provides 98%-99% filtration efficiency. DNA achieves this performance with four layers of DNA cotton.
This high filtration efficiency works alongside the filter’s increased airflow. Therefore, riders can benefit from a high-flow replacement while maintaining strong filtration performance.
Easy Installation
Installing the DNA air filter remains straightforward. Riders can follow the installation instructions included in the BMW workshop manual.
Furthermore, the filter uses a drop-in design for the existing factory air box. This makes the replacement process simple without requiring changes to the air box.
High-Flow Replacement Filter
DNA designed this filter as a High Flow Air filter for Road and Off Road use. As a result, the filter suits riders who use their BMW K 1600 Series motorcycle across both riding environments.
The washable and reusable construction also provides a practical alternative to disposable replacement filters. In addition, the custom-fit design allows the filter to work with the existing factory air box.
Reliable Air Box Sealing
The original BMW air box has sealing surfaces that can become highly deformed. Therefore, DNA developed its special 3D sealing surface to address this specific fitment challenge.
The EVA foam gasket works together with this design to create a reliable seal. Consequently, the filter can help prevent unwanted air from bypassing the filtering media.
This design also supports efficient engine protection by maintaining the intended filtration path.
