Default oil filter
Any recommendations on oil filter? Chrome


Not sure if I should get genuine? High flow etc?


Also not sure if stock engine or modified engine ( mine being modified ) makes a difference?


Thanks


Darren

Chrome narrows your choices down quite a bit. Stock/modified motor makes no difference. You're probably best off with a Genuine HD chrome one then. If black is acceptable, I run genuine Toyota filters on my bikes.

Get the K&N with the nut on the end, makes it easier if you have a tight space come removal time. Install too actually. They come in chrome too
