Oil Filters

[rickt]

Anyone have a brand and number for after market filters fior an '05 GL1800?

[rickt]

Guess my question was a little muddled -- <br />
<br />
If you change your own oil and if you do not use a honda filter -- what brand and oil filter # do you use?? What can I buy at Wally World, Autozone or similar place that will fit?? <br />
Thanks, Rick

Don't forget the ST-7317 at Wall Mart
it is the longer version.

I tried installing the ST-7317 at Wall Mart and I could barely get it in. It is an extremely tight fit and almost imposible to get out. :no:

Let's carry it a step further: What filters are recommended for those of us using SYNTHETIC oil?

[trikeleader]

The same filters used with regular oil can be used with synthetic oils. Filtering of the oil has no bearing on the type of oil used. I use NAPA Gold 1365 with synthetic oil. The oil I use is the Rotella synthetic in the blue container with the blue cap. That oil is JASO approved.

</div>Two questions:<br />
<br />
1. How many miles do you run before changing synthetic oil and filter?<br />
<br />
2. What is JASO?<br />
<br />
(make that 3 questions)<br />
<br />
3. Do you consider the Rotella as good as or better than <span class="highlight">Mobil</span> 1 motorcycle oil or Amsoil?

[trikeleader]

For the 1st question, I run about 6000 miles on synthetic oil between changes.<br />
That is about 2 changes a season. JASO is the Japaneese rating on oil that Honda requires because the engine and transmission shares the same oil.<br />
I buy Rotella because I can get it a Walmart and it is cheaper than <span class="highlight">Mobil</span> One or Amziol. They are all good, but be sure to look at the back of the container and check the ratings to see that JASO is listed.
