Seat cutting into Airfilter

[Jakobi]

Hey all,

Just curious if anyone else has had this problem and if so how they have resolved it?

Problem is the plastic lip on the seat that hooks in under the tank keeps rubbing against the top of the filter where it hooks over the filter frame. End result is a tear across the filter.

I'm onto my 3rd filter now in 1600kms. Some would say 800km per filter is acceptable. Not me, considering the rest of it is in perfect condition. Wasted coins.

I trimmed back any rough edges after I first noticed, but it hasn't seemed to fully solve the issue
