Bajaj Genuine Air Filter DT581062 for Dominar 250/400, Pulsar NS125/160/200 & RS200

Bajaj Genuine DT581062 Engine Air Filter Element

Keep the motorcycle air-intake system correctly serviced with the Bajaj Genuine Filter Element DT581062. This replaceable air-cleaner filter fits selected Bajaj Dominar 250, Dominar 400, Pulsar NS125, NS160, NS200 and RS200 versions that specify the DT581062 element in their spare-parts catalogues.

Also searched as a Dominar air filter, Pulsar NS200 air filter, RS200 air filter, air-cleaner element, air-filter cartridge or engine intake filter, this is the replacement filter inside the original airbox. It is not a complete air-filter housing, oil filter, fuel filter or aftermarket washable performance filter.

Fitment-first notice: Bajaj has used different filter and airbox part numbers across generations. Order DT581062 only where the exact part number matches your model's catalogue or currently installed element. A motorcycle name alone is not sufficient to establish fitment.

These references identify applications in Bajaj parts catalogues and model-specific spares listings. A reference to a particular year does not mean every later production revision is automatically compatible.

Other/newer vehicles: Compatibility with updated 2025/2026 model revisions, Pulsar N-series models, NS400Z and other Bajaj motorcycles is not established by this table. Confirm with a VIN-specific Bajaj parts reference before purchase.

Important Part-Number Differences

• DT581062 — the replaceable air filter element supplied in this listing; appears in compatible Dominar, NS and RS air-cleaner catalogues.
• JL581009 — a different air-filter part appearing in older NS200/AS200 applications. Do not substitute without verifying the exact airbox and parts catalogue.
• DT581064 / DT581079 / JE581118 / JF581035 — these are air-filter assembly/housing references used on particular models, not alternate SKU names for the individual DT581062 element.
• DT581028 — top-cover seal reference shown separately in several catalogues. It is not automatically supplied with this element.
• 36DT0083 — a separate air-filter-element-and-cover-O-ring kit reference appearing in the Dominar 400 UG catalogue. This listing supplies only DT581062, not the kit.

Always check the number on the required replacement component rather than choosing based only on similarity in size or shape.

What Does the Engine Air Filter Do?

The intake air filter is a service component located in the motorcycle's air-cleaner assembly. Its pleated filtering surface helps intercept airborne dust and debris before incoming air travels further through the intake system. Replacing a dirty, damaged or incorrectly fitted element helps maintain the air-intake system in its intended serviced condition.

Why choose the genuine replacement? DT581062 is the Bajaj part number used in the identified original airbox applications. It is a practical choice for riders who want a direct replacement to the specified filter part rather than an aftermarket filter with different construction or service requirements.

No performance guarantee: Replacing a clogged air filter can correct an existing restriction, but it does not guarantee a particular horsepower increase, fuel-economy improvement or cure for an unrelated engine problem.

When Should the Air Filter Be Checked or Replaced?

• During the air-filter inspection/replacement interval stated in the applicable Bajaj owner or service manual.
• After extended exposure to dusty environments, if inspection indicates heavy contamination or damage.
• If the filter element is torn, distorted, incorrectly seated or contaminated by oil or moisture.
• When investigating a potential intake restriction, after checking other possible causes of the complaint.

Reduced response, poor running or increased fuel consumption can have several possible causes, including fuel, ignition, sensor and mechanical faults. Do not diagnose filter failure from these symptoms alone.

Before You Order — Quick Compatibility Checklist

1. Identify the exact vehicle name, model year and version (BS3/BS4/BS6/UG, as applicable).
2. Check the air-cleaner assembly in the Bajaj spare-parts catalogue for your model or VIN.
3. Confirm that the replacement filter element is specified as DT581062.
4. If comparing physical filters, confirm overall shape, sealing edge and fitment with the existing element; appearance alone is insufficient.
5. If the installed filter or catalogue shows another number, confirm the correct part before ordering rather than assuming interchangeability.

Installation and Care Notes

1. Switch off the motorcycle and access the air-cleaner box according to the vehicle's service procedure.
2. Inspect the original element, airbox cleanliness and condition of the sealing surfaces.
3. Remove accumulated loose debris carefully without allowing dust to enter the intake tract.
4. Fit the replacement element in the correct orientation and check that it seats evenly, without pinching or gaps.
5. Refit and secure all original cover screws, seals and connections in accordance with the service manual.

Do not operate the engine with the filter removed. Do not wash, oil, or use compressed air on this original replacement element unless Bajaj specifically instructs that procedure for the exact filter. A reusable oiled-cotton performance filter is a different product and may have different servicing rules. Professional installation is advisable if the airbox is difficult to access or the filter cannot be seated correctly.

Genuine Bajaj vs Aftermarket Performance Filter

If looking for a reusable filter, purchase the appropriate separate product rather than assuming this Bajaj element is washable or pre-oiled.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is DT581062 an original Bajaj Genuine part?

Yes. The photographed stock is supplied in Bajaj Genuine Parts packaging identified as filter element DT581062.

2. Is this the air filter or the engine oil filter?

It is the engine intake air filter. It is not the engine oil filter or fuel filter.

3. Does it fit the Bajaj Dominar 400?

DT581062 appears in Dominar 400 original BS4 and selected UG/BS6 parts references. Confirm the model's exact air-filter element before ordering.

4. Does this air filter fit the Dominar 250?

It is listed for Dominar 250 2020–2023 air-cleaner components. Check any newer revision against the correct catalogue.

5. Will it fit the Pulsar NS200?

Selected NS200 BS6 and 2024 parts references specify DT581062. Early NS200 and AS200 versions can use different filter numbers, so verify your exact model.

6. Does it fit Pulsar RS200 BS3 and BS6?

The original RS200 spare-parts catalogue lists DT581062, and BS6 RS200 references also identify it. Later production revisions should still be checked individually.

7. Is the air filter suitable for NS160?

Yes for NS160 generations whose parts catalogue specifies DT581062, including documented BS4 and selected BS6 versions. Confirm your own vehicle's configuration.

8. Does it fit Pulsar NS125?

It appears in 2021–2023 NS125 air-cleaner component references. Do not assume every later edition uses an unchanged airbox.

9. Is the complete air-filter box included?

No. Only the single replacement filter element is supplied; housing, cover, bolts and pipes are separate components.

10. Are the two top-cover seals or O-rings included?

No. Cover seals such as DT581028 are separate catalogue items. The corresponding full filter/O-ring kit also has its own part number.

11. Is the filter reusable or washable?

Do not assume it is reusable or washable. Follow the Bajaj maintenance procedure for the applicable model; this is not being advertised as an aftermarket washable performance filter.

12. Can a dirty air filter cause poor performance?

A heavily obstructed filter may restrict intake airflow, but running issues can also involve fuel, ignition, sensors and other faults. Inspect and diagnose rather than automatically replacing parts.

13. When should I replace the filter?

Use the inspection and replacement schedule from the owner/service manual for your particular bike, with attention to dusty operating conditions and the filter's actual condition.

14. Does this fit every NS200, NS160, RS200 and Dominar?

No universal fitment claim is made. Match exact model, production version, existing part number and catalogue reference.

15. What is included when I order quantity one?

One genuine Bajaj DT581062 air filter element. No keychain, seal, housing or other accessories are part of the sale.

16. What is the MRP?

The photographed September 2026 Bajaj package shows ₹297 inclusive of all taxes. Confirm the label on the actual supplied pack if the production lot differs.

17. Is DT581062 the same as JL581009?

No. They are different Bajaj part numbers referenced in different motorcycle/air-filter applications. Confirm fitment instead of substituting.

Need Help Confirming Fitment?

Before ordering, compare the existing air-filter element part number or check the model-specific Bajaj air-cleaner catalogue. For uncertain fitment, share your motorcycle's exact model, year and old filter details with Under The Hood before purchasing.
