i learned a while back that most of the filters you buy, car or bike, are pretty much made by mostly the same manufactures. there is only a hand full of them and like paint and car batteries,,,,, they put different covers on them. wixx fram pretty much the same. just change your oil and filter and it really doesnt matter. BUT I COULD BE WRONG ALSO,,, LOLOLOL But i did read a article that said that. heck look at teh numbering on our battery cross referance, a lot of the first 3 digits are the same.
