The K&N CM-8016 Air Filter Keeps the Can-Am Defender UTV Running Clean and Strong
The K&N CM-8016 Air Filter Keeps the Can-Am Defender UTV Running Clean and Strong
Jan 6, 2017
Multiple layers of oiled cotton gauze provide excellent filtration
Can-Am’s Rotax V-twin engine is a proven performer in the motorsports industry. The engine is reliable and adapts well to various applications and duties. In the Can-Am Defender all-wheel-drive UTV, the engine powers a capable work, hunting, and play vehicle. As good as it is, the multi-talented Defender series will benefit significantly from the carefully-engineered K&N CM-8016 air filter.
First off, the Defender’s off-road duty demands a filter that is up to the grimy tasks to which the UTV will be subjected. K&N’s engineers have built extra protection into all of our filters that are intended for dirt duty. The multiple layers of woven cotton gauze media in the CM-8016 offer excellent filtration even in the roughest of conditions. The pleated, oiled media provides a large filtration area that provides high dirt holding capacity and long service intervals. K&N’s rigorous testing protocols verify an overall filtration efficiency of nearly 99%.
The specially designed sealing bead ensures a secure fit
In addition to excellent filtration, the CM-8016 offers an increase in airflow that is designed to boost the performance of the Rotax power-plant. An increase in horsepower and more lively acceleration are the usual byproducts of an increase in available air to the engine.
Off-road duty can render a conventional paper filter element useless after just a day of hard riding. The CM-8016’s reusable design means that a cleaning and re-oiling is all that is needed to get the UTV back on the hunt or back to work. The wasteful and expensive cycle of buying and disposing of conventional air filters ends with the CM-8016. The K&N 99-5000 filter care kit is all that is needed for quick and convenient filter service.
The CM-8016 for the Can-Am Defender is ready to use out of the box
All of these benefits come in a unit that is a direct replacement for the stock filter. It fits securely in the factory air box and requires no fuel management modifications. The filter’s sealing bead ensures a tight fit that prevents unfiltered air from making its way to the intake. The CM-8016 comes pre-oiled and ready to install out of the box and comes with a one year limited warranty. For all of your filtration needs, consult K&N’s easy to use online application search tool.
