Question DP Air filter - Clean and reuse??

I wanted to get some input if it's OK to wash out the DP air filter with kerosene or gas.

Or is that a bad idea and I shouldn't be so cheap and go out and buy a new one?

Thanks -

scott

There are no wired connection to the pipes.

I have a DP airbox cover (looks like a stock cover that someone went at with a dremel tool) but have not installed it.

Thanks!

Thanks Richard!

Looks pretty good to me. I'll buy a pair. The Cycle Cat web site says that you need their "master cylinder spacer kit" for the 1000 DS. Did you get that?? Also any chance of a...
