While I was looking I saw that it crosses to a Fram PH7317, since I've used Fram for the past 30 some years when I started changing my own, that's what I went with. It was $4.99 if I remember correctly. Advance didn't get my Royal Purple Friday like they were supposed to so the date is this Friday now. They did have a ST specifically for the RoadStar just a little shorter...   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #212513 fireman922 (User) Chrome won't get ya home, but it will get ya laid. Platinum Boarder Posts: 4125 Re:Super tech oil filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago   While you are getting your filter, Wally World has 15-50 mobile one for 22 bucks for a 5 qt bottle!   Logged     Ad astra per alia porci...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #212518 hllywd (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 250 Re:Super tech oil filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago   hmmm... 22 bucks, maybe I'll put it in the Lincoln... see what kind of mileage it gives to Florida next month!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #212549 Questcap (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2677 Re:Super tech oil filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago   I mean no offense, but you may want to reconsider the Fram... read it anywhere, they've so cheapened their product that the rep of their filters has gone right into the toilet. The ST filters are a high quality piece. There, I said it. Now, don't be angry with me.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/07/21 08:04 By Questcap.   Sig pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels and 50 kb   The administrator has disabled public write access. #212574 BadBikerBob (User) "Ride your Roadie like a Rice Rocket!" Expert Boarder Posts: 402 Re:Super tech oil filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago   After extensive research, I've found the Purolator PureONE to be the absolute best oil filter for my Road Star. Check out this article: http://motorcycleinfo.calsci.com/Filters.html#buy They are available at Advance Auto Parts for about $6 (best I remember). The only thing I hate about them is the ugly gold color! The SuperTech is also an excellent (& lower-priced) choice & is much, much better than the O.E.M. or J.C. Whitney specials. Bosch produces a very high-quality filter as well. I love my R* more than $4 in my wallet, so the PureONE is my obvious choice with Shell Rotella synthetic 5w-40 oil.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #212577 BadBikerBob (User) "Ride your Roadie like a Rice Rocket!" Expert Boarder Posts: 402 Re:Super tech oil filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago   And Questcap is right, Fram has become the absolute worst oil filters on the market. Their endcaps that hold the filtering element in place inside the case are made of CARDBOARD! Yes you heard me, CARDBOARD! How's that for quality.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #212617 Lumberjack (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 136 Re:Super tech oil filter 2 Years, 6 Months ago   BBB - Might want to check this out from Purolator's site first... click -=Mike If you're thinking you want to install a PureONE oil filter on your bike, please think again. PureONE oil filters are designed for vehicles, not bikes. Because of PureONE's high efficiency, the motorcycle oil pump may not be able to handle the pressure. The Purolator motorcycle filter line is designed to meet the specific needs of a bike; therefore we highly recommend the use of a Purolator ML filter over a PureONE oil filter.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
