Reusable oil filter
#1
Whats the best reusable oil filter that you all use?

Im thinking of getting one for the rapid oil pressure on start up, plus i'd recoupe my cost on paper filters.

Don't.. unless there have been design changes i know one guy that had repeated problems with the filter collapsing each time causing motor damage , i have one motor still to dissasemble after crank damage on the dyno while using one and have taken the filters off the rest of my bikes , and have heard of others with similar issues in Aust and US ,
most were extreme type bikes and there may be less risk with a streetbike .

Paper could be cheaper in the long run!!!

Thanks for the info Maj.

I wont be putting one on my baby then.

Im not rebuilding my friggin motor thats for sure.

Ive been told in the past that the ones with the magnets inside them can come loose and get picked up or block pick ups but was'nt sure if all had a bad name.

Sounds like a product to steer away from if they are not 100% safe and proven.
