Oil filter???

Anybody use these oil filters from D2 Moto?
https://www.d2moto.com/collections/h...l-filter-3-pcs

I’m a little skeptical about these at that price. Are they a true 5 micron filter as recommended bythe moco?
Any other reviews or info you can share would be great.
Thanks!

WIX for me, 5 micron and designed for HD MC's. Local parts houses stock them, or Amazon has them for around $7.

True 5 micron? Depends on what your meaning of true is. If you dig far enough, that 5 micron advertising claim means 5 micron nominal, not absolute. Meaning it will pass a lot of larger than 5 micron particles. If it was absolute it would plug up fast and bypass. In any case, JMO but I wouldn't be afraid to use any reputable filter designed for the application.
I've been using WIX for years myself.
