SuperTech of Bosch oil filter?

[Quattro Pete]

7317 or 3323.

This is for my bike. I got the 7317, but haven't used it yet. Lately I've heard some complaints on a Kawi forum of some owners developing more engine noise after putting the ST7317 filter on, although the oil was changed, too, so it's not 100% certain that it's the filter's fault. But now I'm a bit hesitant. I guess I could always try it and if I don't like it, change it to the Bosch filter.

But all in all, would you say that the Bosch one should be a better filter in theory? Or is it a wash?

Bosch Prem. filter has silicone adbv (ST nitrile), more media and better rated efficiency. So, I would say the BP is the better filter of the two.

Worth the difference in price, your call.

Go Bosch or OEM -Motorcycles have to be 100% at all times. You have to be able to trust your life on it.
