I have a 2" diameter snorkel on my Foreman with a 90 degree bend pointing backwards but I keep getting a lot of dust in my airbox when I ride in rough stuff. Does anyone have any tips on a filter setup or anything else to alleviate this problem?

try putting a full 180 bend on the top of that, dust and dirt is not very heavy, and from looking at the top of your snorkle..i see an easy way for it to get sucked into the top of it. you may also want to check for leaks around the air box. the reason i said add another bend ( 180 total )..think of it like a drain pipe on the bottom of your house sink...it needs to be like the trap. just upside down..instead of water your dealing with air/dust/dirt. it really won't make much difference what you put on that..what ever floats in the air..will get sucked into it..but this will help cut down alot...in the mean time..i'll be thinking of a plan for putting some kind of filter at..or near the top.

someone suggested rubberbanding pantyhose onto the end (which would work will, in theory) but i just don't wanna be ridin around the mud pits with lingerie wrapped around my intake! I might end up getting a universal K&N filter with the right diameter if I can't come up with something cheaper

If your worried about just dirt in the air box period i have seen people put window screen and a hose clamp over the end of it, but if your just worried about dirt on the filter get a k&n i have the same snorkel on my rincon and thats what i did and it helped alot.

Get some outerwears material and put over it.

Yes an outerwear should do the trick. It was designed to keep dirt out

Where can i get some of this outerwears?

 

[PhiDelt374]

Outerwears, Inc. - Original manufacturer of Pre-Filters & Shockwears as well as K&N sells prechargers that are the same thing

I think the Outer Wears are just for keeping out the larger particles. That is why they fit over the K&N or other x brands.

go to snorklemyatv.com they have a screen cover for 10$ (10$ to ship) keeps out h20 and dust down to .005(so they claim) I ordered one today
