Maybe I've drank too much beer, but to me, when you can't walk into a dealer and buy a F'n oil filter, something is wrong.

The two dealers here in my area, Fort Worth, which is a large city, do not stock oil filters for these quads. They have to order them.

Seriously?

Has anyone been able to cross reference it to another brand or know a place to buy them?

Scotts Performance Stainless Oil Filters (http://www.scottsperformance.com/products-CC.php?PartType=3&Bike=Bombardier)

The above link is an option for our bikes, I have used these in the past with no problems. My dealer is charging $14-$15 each so these pay for themselves after 5 oil changes.

I will be picking one of these up soon.


And for all the haters that wont use a stainless filter because they heard someone's brothers, cousins, best friends girlfriends uncle twice removed who has used them and their motor grenaded, I am just showing people some options.

That looks like an awesome option.


Good find!

Yeah, I was hoping someone would release these and Scotts Performance is the brand I am most familiar with so I will have one of these shortly.

My dealer does stock the OEM filters but when they told me $15 I almost choked.
I used K&N filters in my YFZ and I think I spent $7-8 which is still a rip off for these tiny flters, $15 is rediculous.

Stainless all the way. I used a Scotts in my Cannondale and Raptor and never had a problem. Take it out, clean it with Simple Green, Wash and blow some air through it and back in it went.
