My ATV collection is all 1980's model machines and still in perfect condition,if you dont do the maintance your machine it will go downhill real fast,cleaning and re-oiling the air filter on a regular basis is must for your engines protection.

Read your manual!
If you don't have one 'google' it.

johnny i dont know what type of filter you have but if its a paper one water will kill it if its a foam one you can wash it in hot soapy water then rinse it with fresh water or you can use metho for first rinse then water again ,, if you have the paper one just bang it out till all the dust is gone or buy a replacement one or even better get an aftermarket foam one this will last you ages ,, also its important to oil a foam filter with filter oil wich you can get from your bike shop cheers
