The belt case air filter affraid that's the end of that but after 14+ years I guess I shouldn't be to surprised. It looked a bit dirty when I took it out so I decided to flush it with some warm soapy water, no sooner had the water hit it than what appeared to be an ok filter just started to fall apart. Age / heat finally took it's toll. If you read this and have and older S'Wing take heed and have a replacement handy if you intend to replace it and use the bike soon. This wasn't a big surprise as I've seen Gold Wing foam filters do the same thing.

I went to the Auto Parts store and bought generic lawnmower air filter material. Cut to fit. Solved. Didn't want to chase that down through Honda.

Good idea. Nothing fancy needed and it works.

I always washed mine in white spirit. Once to get all the dirt out then again until spirit is more or less clear.
