I have a scotts oil filter in my 450R. The great thing about this, is I don't have to replace it! Just clean it real good and put it back in. Plus it cleans up to 300 times better than the stock one.
Check it out for yourself!!! B)

Looks good rico, it would pay for itself in about 10 oil changes. Supposed to (according to the web site) filter better than a paper filter. I will have to check into it.

I had one in my 465ex stroker and now in my 450R and I simply love it!

I'm not a fan of cleaning oil filters. In my opinion once it is dirty it will never be as clean as a new one. I buy Emgo oil filters off of ebay from atvaddiction.com 5 for $22.95 shipped to me. I think that is fair. I change the oil in my engine every time I ride and the filter every other time. I also change my transmission oil every other time I change the engine oil.

I just got one, love it. It cleans super easy and has given me no problems.

I use something similar ... It is the CRT Performance brand ... It is the same except it comes apart so you can clean it better ...

im getting one of these...how come their part numbers are the same for the 400ex & the 450r....i know they are different oil filters...are these filters really easy to clean?

I ordered the one for the crf 450 this morning, got it for $88.00 CDN after taxes and shipping. Right now I pay about $12.00 for a stock one, so it won't be long paying for itself.

consider yourselves lucky to have a CRT oil filter b/c everywher eis backorder right now untill august

 

[Rico450R]

As far as some people saying the Scotts filter is hard to clean! :mellow: I just wash it with soap and water and then I blow it out with carb cleaner and let it dry. I've been using one for over a year and had no problems!

 

[Jumbo747]

im not paying $80 for a oil filter...$50 is still hard but easier then the $80...ill wait untill august & pray I get one b4 they sell out again

 

[Rico450R]

My filter for my 450R was $70. Anyways, it don't matter what you buy as long as you like it. Even if you spend a $100! It won't take that long to get your money back from buying the paper one's!!

i buy in bulk off ebay..I am running the hiflo oil filters right now & I have 2 left but I got 5 for $20 shipped...I dont want to run these anymore...the look really cheap
