stainless steel oil filters

i would like to see what people think about a stainless steel oil filter, had any good/bad experiences with them? im looking into getting one since the local yamaha shop wants $11.00 apiece for a paper filter, on top of almost $9.00 a quart motul oil so right at $30 for an oil change every fifteen hours, just seeing if i can save a little money in the long run and not have any reliability sacrificed. oh yea and any specific brands yall can recommend?
ive seen scotts and Ready Racing i think? found a RR SS filter for 60 shipped off ebay.

thanks

I've been running the Scotts version in my YFZ450 for close to a year now with no problems. I just installed one in my 450R as well. My dealer was charging 16 bucks for the YFZ filter so after 3 oil changes, the stainless filter paid for itself. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!! Maybe some other people will have some pros and cons as to why to prefer the other. Mine is based on cost and nothing else.

where did you get yours from, the dealer? how much did it run u? 60 also?

Posted by: Les Davis

I got mine from my local dealer but I think you can buy them from just about any aftermarket company right now. Try Rocky Mountain ATV, Magic Racing, East Coast ATV. I know they all have them at reasonable prices as well. Mine was 59 for the YFZ and 50 for the 450R.

$3-something for the Yamaha and the Honda is a little higher where I get mine.

what kind of filter is it, what brand are the pads, and is it a foam uni or a k&n filter for the pro flo set-up?
and what kinda price tag for all this

Posted by: A A R O N

The filter is a Ready Racing filter, the pads are oem yamaha, and it is a foam filter. I would say $75 for all of it.

Posted by: oldskoolex400

u go 60 shipped on all of it?

Posted by: A A R O N

I wanted $75 + shipping, but make an offer....I just need a little more than 60.

Posted by: oldskoolex400

how do you service a foam filter? i have always ran a k&n with a pre filter over it

Posted by: onefast400ex

I run the CRT reusable filter and love it. It only costs about $40 for the yfz from rockymountain.

Posted by: A A R O N

You service a foam filter by washing it out, preferably with klotz foam filter cleaner, then applying klotz foam filter oil....

Posted by: oldskoolex400

ahh i think im gonna stick with a K&N how much for the pads and SS filter

Posted by: A A R O N
