When I looked at the nominal filtration for a WIX filter for my FLHTPI it was 20 microns the problem is Harley specifies 5 microns, and that is when I started using only OEM filters on my bikes. If you can find the micron rating for the Mobil 1 filters and they are close to the HD spec, by all means feel free to use them. there are several threads on the forum about this topic https://www.hdforums.com/forum/oil-a...il-filter.html |

I am fussy about filters, I run WIX or NAPA Gold (re-boxed WIX) as a rule of thumb

I've not tried this filter(yet), 'had some Pep Boys rewards$$, PB couldn't get the K&N, I ordered 5. Most of the feedback on the link seemed positive, so I won't have any undue anxiety giving the Mobil1 Filters a try... |
they make a great auto oil filter
|
It's good, but I prefer the K/N 171C filter from Amazon.
|
I run the m1mc-131 on mine. No trouble so far and oil still looks good. Been about 3k since oil change.
|
If I'm not mistaken, in cars anyway, the Mobil1 is a K&N without the nut welded to it.
