EMGO oil filters
« on: January 02, 2008, 07:28:27 PM »
Has anyone used these?    I've found a couple in the garage the I bought cheaply at a bike show last year but before I put one in the XBR I want to know if they are any good.  They look OK,but I don't want to wreck the engine!  ???

I've used an Emgo filter in my XBR without any problems. As far as I know, they don't have a bad reputation. I've been told to avoid Fram filters though.

I have heard that as well.Dunno if it just applies to bikes.At work if we are not fitting genuine filters,this is on cars,we always use Fram ones.Some of the smaller spin-on ones look about right for bike use but I don't want to try it in case my engine then blows up.
