Air Filter OEM-Style (Pair) | Honda CB360 / CL360

Description

Air Filters (OEM-Style, Pair) | Honda CB360 / CL360

If you’re keeping your CB360 in stock trim, the original air filters are getting hard to find. These are the OEM-style replacement pair for the early-style airbox — left and right, ready to drop in.

Why You Need This

Keeping the stock airbox keeps your bike breathing the way Honda set it up. The CB360 runs a pleated paper element on each side of the frame, joined through a crossover passage built into the frame — so the filters are left- and right-specific, you need both, and this pair includes both. The bike also runs CV (constant-vacuum) carburetors, so the stock intake is part of how it was set up from the factory.

Note — early vs. late style: These are the early-style filters, for the early-style airbox — the flat-sided metal cover that pops over the element. Some later CB360s and the CJ360 came with the late-style box: a convex two-piece box holding a smaller rectangular element. Those late-style elements are no longer made. If you have the late box, you can convert it to the early style (you’ll need early-style covers and a small fabricated bracket for the rear mount) or switch to our angled boot pod filters. Whether a given bike has the early or late box can vary, so it’s worth checking your airbox before ordering.

Installation

Difficulty: Beginner

Tools needed: A wrench for the connecting bolt.

1. Slip each filter into its side of the airbox — they’re left- and right-specific, so check that each goes on its correct side.
2. The two filters connect through a threaded rod that runs through the bottom of the battery box to the opposite side. Thread it through and snug it — don’t over-tighten, or you’ll distort the filters.
3. Make sure the D-shaped crossover seal is seated at the bottom of the battery box before you close everything up.

Keeping them clean: These are paper elements — clean them by tapping out the loose dust and blowing compressed air through from the inside. Don’t oil them, and replace them once they’re oily or torn.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have the early or late style?

It comes down to the airbox, not just the model year. The early style uses a flat-sided metal cover that pops over the element; the late style is a convex two-piece box with a smaller rectangular element inside. These filters fit the early box.

Will these fit my CJ360?

The CJ360 typically came with the late-style box, so it’s not a stock fit. You can convert it to the early style, or run our angled boot pod filters instead.

Do these need to be oiled?

No. They’re paper elements, so oiling them clogs the media and restricts airflow. Clean them by tapping out the dust and blowing compressed air through from the inside, and replace them once they’re oily or torn.

How are these different from pod filters?

These OEM-style filters keep your stock airbox and factory look. Our angled boot pod filters are a performance conversion for bikes that have removed the airbox — a different setup.

How many do I need?

Two — one left and one right. This pair includes both.
