    Try loosening the gas cap and then riding. It sounds like the gas tank is not venting. If thats the case, then you need to figure out why. Gas cap? EVAP system?

    CVT air filters get dirty real quick . Won't show unless you take the filter out and spread the layers.

    You REALLY don't want to try to 'clean' the OE Paper elements - just REPLACE them!

    It might even pay to 'replace' them with K & N Oiled foam elements instead of paper - longer lasting, cleanable, and arguably a bunch of other benefits too!

    Update, also added StarTron to fuel per dealership recommendation and changed CVT air filter with K&N filter
    (K&N for air, left side is ordered). Went for a 30 minute ride (back roads and quick 8miles hwy) and ran great!
    Hopefully all is good going forward! Appreciate the help!

    Final update. Brought to dealership because still was having bogging down issue,
    It was the oxygen sensor. Bike still under warranty so got it fixed free of charge!!
    Thanks again for all the input!

    Frankly, I wouldn't try to clean them. Just replace it. It might even be wise to spend a little more and replace with the K&N filters, much better.

    Glad you got it fixed. BTW the oxygen sensor is part of the emissions control and is warranted for 5 years or 30,000 kilometers (18,641 miles).
