I don't think there is any age limit offroad at Moab...you'll just have to

[dsn_klr650] filter socks (was bruning oil

my air filter looked like it was dipped in mud when i got back from moab.
tell me about these filter socks. is it just an additional oil-soaked gizmo
that goes over the filter but that is easier/cheaper to change/replace/clean
(like while on the road or camping or whatever)??
