Hi

I am wanting to install a cartridge type oil filter on my A10, any advice on where to put it. I am thinking of locating it between the gear box and the rear wheel in the gap above the centre stand.

cheers

See photo of filter fitted behind gear box seems to work well, shot pipe work to Oil tank and engine.

Hi Biker Bob,

Did you put it in the return line and what hoses did you use?

I fitted one and after many thousands of miles one of the oil lines slipped off the filter housing. Be very careful. I ditched the filter and reverted to the standard setup and just change the oil a bit more often.
