Good Morning Board, I called Bike Alert, Inc. in Georgia, the North American based Headquarters for HiFlo Filtro inquiring on the filtering efficiency on the above filter, which is spec'd for my 2014 HD Road King. The tech person stated it is "...an exact match for the OEM..." I asked about...

Good Evening Board, I found this article in a Harley Forum, written by a K&N employee in response to a question about their performance, I found it interesting, and it seems to make sense to me. Thoughts from the Board?

Good Evening Board, This filter was on my son's 2018 Mazda 3 Sedan, 2.5 liter engine, the oil in service was Castrol Edge 0-20 which is all the Mazda has seen. According to the manual, Mazda used Castrol as the factory fill. Some details; 1. Date of Mfg. - 02/21/23 2. Made in Mexico 3...

Good Afternoon Board, The P1 was in service 7 months, 1800 miles; easy to install & remove as it sits inside the engine bay - thank you Subaru for that design. The filter was filled with oil at removal, so I am assuming the anti-drain back valve did it's job. :) The filtering element in...

Good Afternoon Board, My son has a 2016 HD Dyna Street Bob, completely stock. It is garaged with me, I take it out regularly and I've noticed a "hiss sound" coming around on the air filter area. Upon inspection, I notice the following in the photo, one of the metal nipples had a black cap on...

Good Afternoon Board, This is off my 2001 Valkyrie, had the filter on the bike for almost 2 years, but only 500-600 miles on it. The can is .035". Again, a well built oil filter. RevRider

Good Afternoon Board, I've attached some photos of the original oil filter from the factory with 3,000 miles on it before I changed it out. The can is .033 in thickness. It's really a very well built filter, just my thoughts. RevRider

Good Afternoon Folks, It's been a little while since I last posted on the motorcycle forum as I was dealing with an arthritic right hip, which kept me off my motorcycles for about 14 months - it brutal being off the bikes. I've recovered from the hip replacement surgery and back on all 3 of...

Happy Thanksgiving to all! I did the oil change on my Crosstrek today, it's at the 6 months since I bought the car, only 2900 miles on the vehicle and factory fill oil. I bought the crush washer to replace the one on the drain plug, not certain how to get the original one off the drain plug...

Good Evening Board, I am looking to buy an oil filter cutter, any recommendations? RevRider

Good Evening Board, After spending considerable time researching and learning a lot about oil filters from the this board (invaluable information), I opted for the Purolator Pure1 filter for my Subaru. My reasons were: 1. Excellent filtering abilities, 99% at 20 microns. 2. The bypass rating...

Good Evening To All, It’s been a little time since I posted something, but I regularly visit the site, getting caught up in the world of oil. It’s been a real challenge to get oil and I‘ve come to the conclusion that what contributes to this shortage is people who feel compelled to clear the...

Good Evening Board, I was reviewing my HD Catalog, and Harley says their Syn3 oil is a true synthetic, PAO/Ester, and not a "Highly Refined Group III." I am thinking it must be true, or else this is false advertising? Thoughts? RevRider

Good Afternoon To All, I just finished detailing my 2001 Valkyrie, about 38,000 miles on her, I am the original owner - thought folks might enjoy seeing some photos. I used Mothers Step 1 Polish, followed by Mothers Step 2 Micro-Glaze Polish and then used Klasse Sealant to finish the job.

Good Afternoon To All, I've listed my Blackstone Oil Report for review. My bike has 12,991 miles on it, this report has 2,979 miles on the oil, it was in service for 16 months. I usually won't go beyond a year, but I was curious to see if 16 months vs 12 months would make any difference, and...

It seems that most folks think that HiFloFiltro builds K&N's oil filters, but I don't think that is the case. In my subject line I've listed Thai Yang Kitpaisan Company, LTD, I got this name off the HiFloFiltro website. It's this company, a manufacturing facility that builds both HiFloFiltro...

I've been using the HD oil filter, was thinking of switching to the K&N for the ease of installation. Is the K&N filter equal to the OEM product in flow, filtering ability, etc? Harley's advertises it as a 5 micron, but I think they say "nominal" which is about 50% efficiency. Any experts...
