I just go down to my local MoCo dealer and buy them.

I mean, they are fairly close, and I know I'm getting the right one. They might be a buck or two higher than I could otherwise find, but when you figure maybe three or four filters a year (tops), what difference does it make?

the HD filters are solid filters at a decent price. Gives me a reason to go look at the bikes.

Wherever and whatever, be sure to get an EVO filter, not a twinkie filter.

Ain't that the truth, right there!

Actually, all new vehicles look like that to me. My wife and I went down to the home show over the weekend to look at some stuff. The Chevy dealer had a new Silverado sitting there. She said how nice it was and I should get one. I looked at the sticker. $65,000. AYFKM?!?!?

Mine is an '04 that I paid $17k for a couple of years ago. Even that seemed like a lot.

I could never talk myself into spending $30k ish for a bike.
