Then every time you drain your oil send a sample out to get analyzed. You will then know more than you ever want to! Excellent idea! A good lab can usually pinpoint the reason for any abnormal findings and forewarn of a possible failure situation in the making. Lot easier to replace a couple of bearings or something ahead of time than to repair a shelled engine. Although doing it every change could get expensive.   Logged     Last Edit: 2011/03/31 10:23 By texasscott1.   My 99 Standard Test Mule Scott B.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #359854 old dog (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2127 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   Anyone have a link to that thread from tommy over @ RSR? bill   Logged     110 cu in., PR/JE 10.25:1 HC pistons, PR Cam, PR adjustable push rods, PR stage II ported heads (2mm oversize valves)   The administrator has disabled public write access. #359866 texasscott1 (User) Two of a kind Platinum Boarder Posts: 2492 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   I'm just a basic member on Delphi so can only search back 3 months.

For the Road Star the K&N part is a KN-303 or 303C if you want chrome.   Logged     My 99 Standard Test Mule Scott B.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #359931 JohnnyBravo (User) I'm serious, and don't call me Shirley Platinum Boarder Posts: 1600 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   I'm confused So basically if I use any oil filter made my motorcycle will die a horrible death?   Logged     guns are meant to be shot Harley, not thrown   The administrator has disabled public write access. #359935 TheSheepdog (User) Famous last words Watch this S*&^ Platinum Boarder Posts: 1006 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   JBubbs wrote: I'm confused So basically if I use any oil filter made my motorcycle will die a horrible death?

Platinum Boarder Posts: 10238 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   http://users.zoominternet.net/~capronem/Inside%20the%20ST7317.htm The key is to change it. The only one I won't use is the fram. I've cut several filters open and the fram has cardboard end caps on the filter media. Might be fine for a liquid cooled bike. http://motorcycleinfo.calsci.com/Filters.html   Logged     Last Edit: 2011/03/31 15:41 By Greysnake.   06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #359937 TheSheepdog (User) Famous last words Watch this S*&^ Platinum Boarder Posts: 1006 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   Ok on a side note. One of these sites said we should change our filters twice as often as we do the oil when running advanced syn oil. How much oil will we lose if we just unscrew the oil filter and put a new one on?   Logged     Last Edit: 2011/03/31 22:17 By TheSheepdog.   The Sheepdog It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 10238 Re:Oil filters facts and fiction. 2 Years, 1 Month ago   I've done that on long trips and put about 4oz's back in. Check it after riding and it should be some where in the cross hatch area which is ok. You can also have the new filter ready with oil already in it in which you'll add less.   Logged     Last Edit: 2011/03/31 16:01 By Greysnake.   06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access.
