Wally World oil filters. 2 Years, 6 Months ago  
When I go to my local Wally World, they never have the ST 7317 in stock. How do you guys get them?

Ask them to order you some or get them from the website. I bought 6, so I'm set for a few miles.

They have one that is the same as the 7317 but it's the same size as stock and not as long as 7313. Wish I could remember the # Brain Fart city
Ah,the # is 6607. The fart fog cleared.

Boatmark,I use Wix filters and never payed more

Wix #51358 is stock filter
Wix #51356 is an inch longer (more filter area)
Both numbers are stocked items at all the stores.

The WalMart I went to here had them, but I've always been a Fram fan. I happened to see the same number on a Fram box adjacent to the WM filters and went with it instead. It was a little more expensive but if I remember right, still under $6.

Re:Wally World oil filters. 2 Years, 6 Months ago  
You guys want superior filtration and save money there is only one way to go. But they are sorta like DS tires, you only get your moneys worth if you really ride enough to actually use it. I always used to use top quality Oil filters, the Mobile one M1 110 or an Amsoil Chrome. $15 a whack X 5 a year at least = $75 Makcap suggested this and after checking it out I found one locally, A Victory Shop had em in stock and several configurations, Diamond cut and colors. I got plain ol Silver, Another thing to Add that you can service on the road. This part number transfers to many bikes. So keep your filter save the Cheapo's for when you sell.

So,
On Road Serviceable Air cleaner, Fuel filter, Oil Filter and rear tire. Priceless.
