Hiflofiltro HF204RC-2 2 Pack Black Premium Oil Filter, 2 Pack

I bought it because of the positive reviews. I ignored the few negative reviews that claimed the filter leaked from the end nut. Mine lasted four months of weekend riding before I discovered oil all over my back tire one day while riding down the street. The nut on the end of the filter, where the nut connects to the canister, was leaking. As I rode, oil splattered on my back tire. When I got off the road, I also left oil spots when I parked the bike. This filter was a waste of money, as was the expensive synthetic motorcycle oil. Now I'll have to change the oil and replace the filter once more. I'm going to try the one that doesn't have the nut at the end. If this fails in any way, I'll replace it with a genuine Triumph oil filter.

K& N has the same issue as this HF204RC in that the filter leaks at the end weld. This filter should be avoided unless you want your rear tire to be covered in oil while riding. Remove the nut at the end of the regular version. You could die as a result of an oil spill of this magnitude. K& N has a recall on their 204, and highflo should have one as well; this is unacceptably dangerous. In my case, I noticed a few drops of oil and half of my rear tire covered in oil while coming to a complete stop. I'd just come down from the mountains.

I've gone through a few of these and have never had any problems; this one is far superior to the ones at the local auto parts store. In contrast to the K, N, these are less expensive, and I'm not aware of any recalls, which is what happened when I tried to buy one at Auto Zone - The KN-II was one of the items I brought. 204 to the register, and they wouldn't sell it to me because of it, which is probably a good thing.

I've used HiFlo filters on a variety of motorcycles, and it was time for my Triumph Trophy to be serviced. I decided to give it a shot and went with the "RC" version of the filter because, well, why not? Perfect fit, and I like how easy it is to remove the filter using the attached Nut on the filter's end, which is similar to another well-known feature. brand name ) Because the filter is buried in the bike's bodywork, this will be useful; I have no reason to believe it will not provide adequate filtering, and after a few thousand miles, I have had no problems; I will definitely consider using it again when I service the bike.

I, like many others, dismissed the poor reviews as a result of my previous experience with hiflo filters (which had yielded positive results). I followed the instructions to the letter, did not use the nut to tighten it, and rode my 2006 Triumph Daytona 955i for about 5 miles before it began to leak. It was only a couple drips when I noticed it about halfway through a ride. I took it home and it was dripping at about 1 drip per second by the time I got there. Oil was splattered on the back of my bike and on my rear tire. Because the filter on the Daytona is recessed and difficult to see, I assumed it was either user error or an adjacent leak. I drew the filter to see if there was an o-ring that had become loose. I wiped off the filter and let it sit full of oil over my oil drain for a day, and by the end of the day, I could see oil leaking from the spot welds for the nut. br>br>I'm not going to use these filters any longer. It's far too much of a risk. This filter has been replaced by a Royal Purple 10-pack. It's a little longer than the hiflo, which makes it easier to remove without sacrificing ground clearance.

There are a variety of oil filter options for my bike (2010 Triumph Thunderbird) according to a variety of sources, and I've tried a few of them. They refuse to seal worth a damn for some reason. So there I was, with a Triumph that was leaking like it was back in the day due to a faulty filter. When I turned on this filter, there was no longer any leak. By itself, the bolt head welded to the end is worth the few extra dollars. It's a lot easier to put on this way. There's no need to deal with that obnoxious filter wrench any longer. br>For a couple of reasons, it was suggested that you don't use the bolt head to tighten. I did use it to tighten things up a bit. I used the standard torque for installing an oil filter - Hand-tighten it to the point of touching, then use a socket to put a half turn on it (no more) - There isn't any drama and there aren't any spills.

OEM. It appears to be on par with, if not better than, most OEM filters and the well-known K filter. N is the same as N. As an exact OEM replacement, it was installed on my 2014 Honda CB1100. Comes with a sealed O- ring that has been pre-lubricated and is already seated AWESOME VALUE!.

I saw on the internet that several other bikes should fit this bike, but they don't. The THREADS are correct, but the filter's outside length and diameter interfere with the exhaust. br>br>This one fits perfectly, and the company's claims for its efficacy are backed up by certifications.
