Reuseable Oil filter? thoughts?

[Mitchelldietz]

any have this or any reuse oil filter?

PC Racing FLO "Spin On" Oil Filter With Housing - Street Bike - Motorcycle Superstore

this seems like a good idea, says it catches itesm 3x better then a paper one. i think i would get the casing powdercoated black, any thoughts?

oh and K&N makes one also but its $220

also fz8 is not listed is it the same as a a 2010 fz1 oil filter?

 

[Fazed]

Yep, 2010 FZ1 uses the same filter

I wish I had bought one the first oil change. I have 16K on the bike now, so thats 5 oil changes at 13 bucks each filter i think, 65 bucks. The one on ebay for 90 bucks free delivery looks pretty good. Read some reviews on it and seems to be a dang good filter. Oh well, but at 220 I cant see it being worth it.

+1 Purolator Pure One PL14612/Bosh 3300/Mobil 1 M1-108. You know they're good, and because they're new each oil change, they're clean to start.

If you do your own service work I could see using this but I wouldn't trust others

i'm a believer in fresh new filters each time.

can you ensure that each time you clean out your "reusable filter" that you're truly getting it clean?

i spend the 8 bucks a filter and a dollar for the new crush washer and call it a day.

20-50W of your choice and done.
