Description
The BMC FM01138 is a high-performance replacement air filter designed for the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 from 2021 onward, and it also fits other Royal Enfield 350 models such as the Classic 350 and Hunter 350. It is a cylindrical filter installed in the motorcycle’s original airbox in place of the OEM filter, with no modifications required. Made in Italy, the filter uses highly performing materials that allow an increased air flow combined with more efficient filtration, guaranteeing containment of impurities as small as 7 microns compared to the 10 microns of a standard OEM filter. BMC filters are made of a multi-layered cotton gauze soaked with low viscosity oil and covered with an epoxy-coated alloy mesh, which protects against petrol fumes and oxidization due to air humidity. The filter is produced using BMC’s Full Moulding system, which forms the characteristic red filter from a single mould with no welded joints, helping it avoid easy breakage. This construction gives the filter a durable, long-lasting rubber surround. The filter is supplied pre-oiled and ready to fit. Because it is washable and reusable, it can be cleaned and regenerated using the appropriate BMC regeneration kit, making it a long-term alternative to disposable paper filters.
