Re: which oil filter is the best to use

All filters are basically the same. Just grab something you've heard of before and enjoy riding your bike.

Re: which oil filter is the best to use

Youtube search for oil filter comparison.

You would be surprised at how flimsy and weak some of the "premium" filters are.
Sure, filtering media has a little bit to do with it. But what good is expensive filtering media when your bypass valves and o-rings are crap cardboard and don't even hold themselves in place.

Again. Just buy something with a name you have heard of and change it regularly.
