Beautifully crafted by my friend Bob Hagerman. Say good-bye to the messy OEM oil filter canister and cartridge. One less excuse not to change your oil! Obviously, this is not intended for show bikes, but it's perfect for real road warriors. This unit has been thoroughly tested on RC-003: click here
T-6 aluminum with highly polished finish Fits the following motorcycles:

Note: Competing adapters are available in the marketplace made from stainless steel. Consider this: stainless steel is about 3 times heavier than aluminum. This is a substantial chunk of metal! My fabricator chose the correct material for the application in my opinion. An aluminum adapter which mates to an aluminum engine block is an ideal choice. It makes no sense to lug around a piece that weighs 3 times as much as necessary. Plus stainless material cost is higher, and it is far more difficult to machine and polish. The wear on machining tools is much greater with stainless. Finally, it is much harder to fabricate to tight tolerances with stainless steel. Note: Fram numbers are provided for reference...any equivalent brand with 3/4"-16 threads and a seal diameter of 3 inches or less will work. I'm well aware of the "controversy" regarding the quality of Fram filters so please don't email me any information about that "issue" or bash my poor judgement about oil filters online. As I say, the Fram numbers (and pictures) are provided to assist in cross-referencing any equivalent filter you prefer. Note: No filter is included in the kit. You can source filters locally at any auto parts outlet. Note: A filter with a 20mm thread will go on this adapter, but the threads engage by a mere .012 inch (0.3 mm) or less. It is likely that the threads will strip allowing the filter to become loose, resulting in rapid loss of oil. This includes the OEM Honda Goldwing 1500 filter, and likely any "motorcycle filter". Most motorcycle-specific filters have metric threads. DO NOT USE FILTERS WITH 20MM THREADS!!! Note: Filter Recommendations (including CBX Fit Notes courtesy of John Smarsh): click here
