HA!

Just as I suspected......!!!!

 

Guys, Kury is coming out with a hot new upgrade, an aerodynamic plasti-chrome oil filter cover, that will address these mileage issues even with the stock filter.

We all know that the knurls on the stock filter (especially the chrome one...black is faster) breaks up the laminar flow over the filter, increasing turbulence and causing mini-vortices that increase drag. These vortices also trap warmer air around the jugs causing higher engine temps and further oil degradation.

The Kury cover will work with all stock oil filters (only a slight mod with a Dremel is needed to use it with the K&N for even greater MPG with that filter) for an increase of .002% increase in MPG.

I need a recommendation on which double stick tape to use, though. I've used 3M for years on my old metric bikes, but my buddies tell me that I should only use Scotch on a Harley.

Also, if I coat it with synthetic oil or dino oil, will the air pass over it even more easily???

 

Scotch, Bourbon, Canadian, IRISH, it's all good. Single malt scotch will of course give better mpg's than blended.
But from someone who goes by the name of MadIrish, you could also do worse than Two Gingers.

 

Amsoil is my first choice, Wix is my second.

 

Actually it isn't going anywhere,I'm using virtually no oil between changes.......

 

I use the scavenger puck only. No filter. The weight savings gained me 4 hp. and 6 mpg increase.. I can show you the dyno sheet to back it up

 

I think 3M makes Scotch tape. As far as oil filters go, The XT-1F is the best

I'm running K&P Engineering oil filter. So far, so good.
