Product Description

The BMC FM553/04 Performance Air Filter is engineered as a direct replacement for the stock air filter on the Yamaha YZF-R1 1000 models from 2009 through 2014. Designed to enhance engine breathing and overall airflow compared to the OEM paper element, this high-flow filter helps improve throttle response and combustion efficiency during spirited road and track riding. The multi-layer oiled cotton gauze media reliably filters contaminants while allowing increased air volume into the intake.

Constructed using BMC's full-molding technology, the FM553/04 features a one-piece durability-focused design without welded seams, ensuring a long functional life. The epoxy-coated alloy mesh protects the filtration media from fuel vapors and moisture, while the washable and reusable design makes maintenance straightforward and cost-effective. Installation is simple - the filter drops directly into the factory airbox with no modifications required. Fitment is confirmed through 2014; fitment for 2015 and newer model years is unconfirmed at the time of listing. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
