DNA Universal Pod Filters
Air Filters for your Café Racer
Motorcycle Air Filters are a staple on any custom bike. From Café Racers to Street Trackers and all in between removing the air box and replacing it with some high-performance air filters is high up on most builder’s priority list. At Purpose Built Moto we like to make our own products where possible. When it comes to specialist items outside our knowledge range however, it’s good to trust an expert. Enter DNA performance filters. A European Performance Air filter company steeped in racing heritage.
Specialising in both on and off road performance Air filters, these guys know their stuff. I was looking for something extra to offer our growing customer base and settled on providing a high-quality performance component that 80% of custom enthusiasts and builders use. After a short conversation with their head engineer and all around good guy Marios, I knew DNA performance pod filters were a perfect fit. An Avid custom enthusiast himself, Marios understands both Purpose Built Moto’s objective in providing these products to people and the custom applications these filters are needed for. If you’re interested to check out Marios’ latest mind bending custom made from head to toe CNC bodywork and components.

I see in the pictures the engine is a 225 yamaha scorpio. With the air box removed and the pod filter installed. What then happens with the two hoses that also connected to the box? I’ve seen some use 12mm air filters. I see one nose going down to the bottom i take it thats just a uncovered breather? what about the other pipe as that sucks a fair bit of air?
The Scorpio was built years ago mate, Generally the hoses you’re talking about will be breathers just put a small filter on them.
Looking for a air filter (blue) to fit my 1985 postie bike original carbie
Hey Craig, You’ll have to measure the inlet on the carb and match it up with the correct size of DNA filter through our online store.
What size pod filter do you use on a stock scorpio carb?
Hey Trent, You need to measure your specific bike. I dont keep those things on record sorry.
