It sounds like a good thing. I wonder what they do about the rubber o ring seal on the base?? Do they give you a supply of those to last awhile?

I've never heard of these people... but that doesn't mean a thing :-D

I've seen these before, The H-D boards were full of talk a few years ago. If you want very good filtration, use an Amsoil or K&N, or Mobil1 oil filter, they filter down to 30 microns using the weaved filter media. Plus where are you going to "scrub" that thing out? Do you have a parts washer?

Yes, Fram PH6607 will work. One minor problem is that this filter has a "SureGrip" coating around the top. It is a thin rubbery coating designed to help you grip the filter so you can turn it on properly when you install it. The problem is that it increases the filter diameter at the top slightly, making it harder to get the stainless slip on cover in place. A gentle tap with a plastic hammer solved the problem. I'm not sure how difficult it is going to be to get the stainless cover off! I'll deal with that on the next oil change! I can either fight to get the cover off while the filter is on the bike, or spin the assembly off and then extract the filter!
