Here's what I'm using on my Sporty and FX.

I love em!! And according to Blackstone Labs, who does my UOA's, they provide excellent filtration. Best part though is that when I'm sitting at a red light on a hot day, I look down at my oil pressure gauge and see it sitting at 20 psi at idle. Used to be at 6 psi when I was running the HD 5 micron filter.

My son saw these at Southern Metal Choppers and got me interested in them so we got em on our bikes now. Notice the oil pressure runs a little higher at idle when its hot. Have not had them on long enough to clean em.

I have one and it performs as advertised, not a "wow" part but it does the job and the chrome one looks nice.

Sorry guys, Don't want to burst your bubble, I've been in the business for over thirty years and from what I've seen in filters and oil this idea is just plain stupid.
