Product Overview
Kawasaki air filter gasket, OEM part number 11061-7042. It seals the joint between the air filter assembly and the carburettor, so every litre of air the engine draws has passed through the filter.
A Gasket Is What Makes the Air Filter an Air Filter
If the gasket is missing, hardened or split, unfiltered air bypasses the element and goes straight into the engine. Truckmounts work in dusty driveways, car parks and construction sites, and ingested dust is the fastest way to wear bores and rings.
Check it every time the filter is serviced. It costs almost nothing and it protects the most expensive component on the machine.
Genuine Parts on a Truckmount Engine
The engine on a truckmount is the machine. An hour of downtime is a job cancelled, and the part that stopped it is almost always a small one. Genuine and correctly specified parts are not a premium here — they are what stops a two-dollar component costing a day of work.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which engines use it?
Kawasaki uses 11061-7042 across a wide range of engines. Send us the engine model and specification number from the shroud and we will confirm.
When should I replace it?
Whenever it is hardened, torn or deformed, and any time the air filter assembly has been removed and the old gasket will not seat flat.
Is this the air filter element?
No. This is the gasket only.
What we see in the field
An air-filter gasket is easy to overlook when the cover's been off for a service. If it doesn't seat properly, dirt may bypass the filter even though the element itself looks fine. Clean the mating faces and make sure the gasket isn't pinched before closing it up.
Engine parts are specific to the model and often to the revision. Send us the engine model and serial numbers from the shroud and we will confirm the part before you order.
