Am I using to much oil on my air filter?

Drop some filter oil into a snaplock bag, seal it leaving some air in it. Give it a shake so the oil spreads around the inside surface of the bag then drop the foam filter into it, seal it, shake it around again then squeeze the air out and seal the bag again, knead the oil into the foam through the bag. Ready for next filter change. Have about 2 of them on hand.

That is brilliant. Thanks!

Oh FFS dude, if you're going to stand around at the car park out at Woodhill watching me make a dick of myself, at least come and say hi when you've stopped laughing!

I have indeed done exactly that.

LOL, Ive seen 2 people do that with utes. Laugh then pull the bike off them.

First day I got my first bike which was a XL185s which was a number of decades ago, I got the bike off the trailer and gave it a kick. It started but I managed to kick it into gear with my other leg and rode it into the back of the trailer.

In front of my new girlfriend of the time.

Might as well ask here seeing as its abbout air filters.

On a Uni filter, do I oil both parts of it, or just the inside one? Outside filter feels quite coarse, so dont know if you need oil on it, or if oil from the inside elemnt soak into on there own.

I used to use the spray on types as most where nice an sticky and stayed in/on the filter rather than dripping off. was also good on sandy / dusty tracks for putting a coating on the inside of the air box help trap some of the muck before it got to your airfilter saved changes in the middle of the day.
