Ferret, I clean the filter every 12000kms at the major service. Plus, if I ride dirt, then as soon as possible. I have never replaced the filter, preferring instead to clean it. I blow it out with compressed air (I have a compressor), tap it firmly rim first on to a table to dislodge crud and even use a vacuum cleaner with attached brush on the outer surface. You might be surprised how much dust, dirt, even small tar pellets and road grime you dislodge.
I'm doing mine in the next day or two along with some remaining service items. Plugs cleaned and valve clearances [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=8882&pid=139671#pid139671%20]have been checked and the heat shield and electronics are back in place. I'm in no hurry as I've decided, after removing the fuel tank on at least four occasions, to follow the Service Manual recommendation and at last replace the fuel line damper connector and retainer. They are cheap, less than $20, so why not? They should arrive by courier in the next few days.
Cheers
