I've got 58,000 miles on the bike.I put a K&P egineered oil filter on the bike 3 years ago.
Found little brown particals in the filter last year before I went to Sturgis. this years first oil change I found metal. Bike ran good but I did think it was getting a little loud.
That filter was around $200 at the time but it just saved me my motor so well worth it.
