Would you know particle trapping size? Some of these late model bikes require 5/1000000 of an inch.

Re: Oil Filter Poll

If you look around the forum, you'll see that the aftermarket filters do not filter the 5 micron necessary in the TC engines. Most are more like 20+ microns. What you may or may not save on a filter could cause you somewhere else in repairs.

Re: Oil Filter Poll

I would rather use the reliable Harley filter and have a little less chrome on my bike. But, that is just me.

Re: Oil Filter Poll

Feel most comfortable with HD filter; spec’d for proper filtration and bypass, and one of my two oil wrenches (more like a cap fitting on end of filter) works.
