Does changing my air cleaner actually improve performance?

Yes! Aftermarket air cleaners are often less restrictive than stock, allowing your engine to breathe better, which can lead to noticeable gains in horsepower and torque. It's one of the most effective early upgrades.

Can I install an air cleaner myself at home, or do I need special tools?

Most air cleaner swaps are fairly straightforward DIY projects achievable with basic hand tools. Lowbrow Customs offers video guides for some popular models. However, if you're not confident, professional help is always a good idea.

Do custom air cleaners require frequent maintenance? Are the filter elements washable and reusable, or do they need replacement?

Yes, custom air cleaners need periodic inspection and cleaning, depending on riding conditions. Many high-performance filter elements (like oiled cotton gauze types) are designed to be cleaned, re-oiled, and reused multiple times, saving money in the long run. Always check the manufacturer's recommendations.
