Thanks everyone for their input. It seems we have more philosophers than mechanics among our midst Sorry for putting you through that video. Have to admit I had no patience to watch it to the end myself. It really makes you feel like.The filters though are really good and I know it first hand from people who use them and I trust them as they are no bull*@#t artists (proven and checked many times).
The reason I am doing it is the drive to make it better I guess. Have not seen anything yet that can not be improved one way or another. I had the OEM filter on my bike for the whole 17 km from the dealer to my garage. Those who read the info on the filters I sent out while ago will understand why. In my opinion the filter is much more important than the oil we are using and one that filters only 70-90% of stuff that is bigger than the assembly clearance in the bottom end, is definitely not good enough. I will experiment with it and let you know the results
I have installed the pressure gauges before and after to monitor the flow rate but it would be good to know what is the minimum the sub galery needs to work safely.
Thanks again to everyone who took the time to respond.
