89 FLST oil lines to filter - need a favor
So I'm going with black nylon sheathed/braded oil lines instead of the stainless braided. Have a favor to ask. Can someone take a pic of the two lines to the filter? I know one comes from the oil tank and the other to the pump on the rear of the motor. Since I have to cut these myself, I just want to know exactly where they are run along the frame, away from the exhaust, etc. Really appreciate any and all help. Thanks!

Ok, forget the pics. How about just confirming for me that the line from the pump exits the pump, drops down and goes forward to the oil filter from below the engine??

Yeah, from the oil pump to the filter, from the filter to the tank.

I think it depends on your bike. On my bike, the lines run along the right frame rail to the oil cooler. The filter is under the transmission. Run them however you want, as long as you secure them down so they don't move. If they move, bad things happen to oil lines.

the center of the oil filter is the exit from the filter to the return fitting of the oil tank -- the fitting off to the side ( top / bottom ) of the filter housing is the input from the exit side of the oil pump ----
the oil travels to the filter into the side fitting and exits the center back to the tank --- johnjzjz |
