Yamaha Tenere 700 Pre-Filter

The FunnelWeb FWF 7890 is the pre-filter for the Yamaha Ténéré 700 (all model years), an oiled pyramid-foam stage that sits in the airbox ahead of the main element and absorbs the sustained dust load of off-road riding. Ride dirt regularly and this is the highest-value addition you can make: the filter guarding your engine stays cleaner, ride after ride.

What it changes

• Main filter life multiplies: the pre-filter takes the beating; the element behind it stays workable
• Trips need less wrenching: service the outer stage at camp in minutes, keep the airbox sealed until home
• Fewer airbox openings: every opening in dusty country is a chance for dirt to fall where it shouldn't
• Pyramid-profile foam: twice the external surface area, roughly twice the dust held per cleaning

Part of the Ténéré 700 three-stage system

This pre-filter (7890) is stage two. The FWF 7889 snorkel filter stops heavy dust first at the intake mouth, and the FWF 7891 main filter is the final guard. Pair the pre-filter with the main filter for regular dirt; add the snorkel stage for desert and multi-day routes. Not sure you need one?

Care

Wash, dry completely, re-oil, reinstall, one element serves for seasons. Never use No-Toil brand oil or cleaner on a FunnelWeb filter; its chemistry attacks the foam adhesive and will cause premature failure. Full walkthrough: how to clean and re-oil a foam air filter.

FAQ

Does it restrict airflow? A clean, oiled pre-filter flows freely, the restriction to worry about is a single overloaded main filter deep into a dusty day, which is exactly what this prevents.

How often do I clean it? More often than the main filter, that's its job, and it's the quicker element to service. See the T700 service interval guide.
