Cheap Oil Filter?

[Anonymous]

Any ideas on where to get a cheap oil filter for a ZXR750?

Most bike shops ive been to (wont mention them) want $20ish

I dont know bout you but considering its smaller than a car one and u only pay $8 for a car one i dont think this is a reasonable price.

Do any aftermarket companies make oil filters for bikes (Ryco etc) or do i have to go a genuine one?

I know it seems like im whinging a bit but i just dont like paying too much for something. For instance having to pay $99 for a genuine air filter (which is practically $2 worth of foam) because K & N dont make one is not a nice experience.

stop winging it's the price you pay for riding bikes :roll:

You'd probably find the filter on a bike is about 50 time more efficient than a cage because it has to filter all the gearbox oil aswell as just the engine as in a cage.

I'd $20 ain't too bad....

No real offence intended here, RRR1, but you sound tighter than a duck's arsehole, and they're watertight.
