Stock Air filter for MD150t-7 2011 By fgregcobb (Read 1,207 times)

, I have a guy with a newer 150 in the shop wanting to keep everything stock. The air cleaner on these models is mounted on the side of the bike not on top of the motor. I haven't been able to locate one of these. The paper element is not removable. All is intergrated in a one piece plate. Any ideas where I can find one?

That is weird, I would get a Air Box with a different air filter setup so that you can change the filter. So find a air box that looks like the one he has and there are many of them. I am sure the one on there is the cheapest and can be replaced with a better air box with a filter that can be changed.

I agree with Alley, that thing is odder than odd. You might think about a Uni filter that bolts right onto the carb intake and lose all of that crap including the weird air box. If you don't want to upjet with a new Uni I can tell you how to make a sleeve to go around the filter so you can adjust the air. A simple upjet though would give you more power. Rich

My Chuanl MC-LB150t-26 has the same kind of air box and filter. It's one of the reasons I have been contemplating changing to a Uni filter. The only reason I haven't is because of the body panels on my scoot and how hard they are to get off to get access to the valve cover and engine to upjet. It's going to be a multi day job and I'm afraid of breaking off more scew posts like happend when I had to take off steering and headlight panels. There are only two panels (one the entire left side and one the entire right side) that cover the entire engine compartment, storage area and gas tank and I still have not found all of the attachment points I sure wish they would come up with a more service friendly way to access the working parts but I realize the realities of the chinese scooter, I just don't think it would be that hard to put a little thought into the problem to make a better product and happier customers. Of course these are the same people that can't seem to find an English speaking person to write their owners manuals so what should I expect. LOL
