RE: Fram Filters
ORIGINAL: Young Rider
Hello,
I have a question reguarding Fram filters. I have read a few posts that say not to use them. Why is this? The main reason I ask is I changed the oil in my Sportster 2 weeks ago and put on a Fram oil filter.
Thanks,
Jason

I will not or ever use a Fram filter on any thing that I own
But, you use what ever makes YOU feel good.

Thanks for the info pococj. I currently use Fram filters for my cars also but after reading that I do not believe that I will be using them anymore. Also I plan on picking up a Harley filter for my bike this Saturday.

Fram's reputation has suffered in recent years. Can't prove it, but most everyone I know thinks it happened when Fram became the "filter of choice" at Wal Mart. Here's an oil filter study:

Many Many moons ago I worked at Napa as a Parts guy. We had a display with a fram and wix filters cut apart. At that time Frams were Junk and probably still are. I personnaly would not run a fram on Any of my motors. As a Side note it never ceases to amaze me when I read posts from people going "Ya I run oil in my bike that I bought at walmart. its a few dollars cheaper then the good stuff but it doesnt hurt and I have never had Any Problems."
Lets see here. You Spend Ten Thousand Dollars Or MORE on your harley and your gonna run Cheap oil or filters because you save a Few Dollars. In the Long Run are you Really saving money.
Just my 2 cents
