Duane,do your motorcycle a big favor and DO NOT put a FRAM oil filter on it.Every filter test rates the FRAM as substandard.See for yourself.Web search "oil filter tests" Also thanks for the heads up on the clearence issue.I will take a look at all of my filters. I keep all of my old filters,numbered as to when they were replaced.Someday I will cut em open and see what I can see. Al
