RDLN
RDLN Racing 38mm High Flow Air Filter - 50-80cc Performance
Description
Boost horsepower, sharpen throttle response, and deliver an aggressive intake growl to your small-displacement powerplant with the RDLN 38mm 45-Degree Racing Air Filter Assembly. Engineered as a high-flow performance upgrade for carbureted 50cc 2-stroke and 4-stroke scooters, this open-element intake replaces your restrictive factory plastic air box with a high-CFM pleated filtration element. Includes a removable smoke-tinted rain cover cap with mounting screw.
Key Features
- 45-Degree Elbow: Angled rubber mounting neck provides clearance around tight rear shock mounts and frame gussets on small scooter chassis.
- Removable Rain Cover: Smoke-tinted plastic cap prevents moisture and road spray from entering the intake during wet-weather riding.
- High-Flow Pleated Mesh Element: Conical pleated filtration element with chrome end cap maximizes surface area while reducing intake restriction vs. stock foam or paper filters.
- Worm-Gear Clamp: Reinforced rubber mounting collar with adjustable worm-gear hose clamp for an airtight, vibration-proof seal on the carburetor inlet.

Important — Re-Jetting Required: Switching from a stock airbox to an open high-flow filter significantly increases airflow. This will cause your engine to run lean. You must up-jet your carburetor's main jet — typically 5–10 sizes depending on elevation — to properly balance the fuel mixture after installation.
