Review on πŸ”§ Hiflofiltro Black 2 Pack HF138RC-2 Premium Racing Oil Filter: Optimal Performance for Racers - Pack of 2 by Wade Brooks

Don't use! for oil filter

I installed this filter on my 08 Gixxer 1000 track bike and rode two track days with this filter. Halfway through the second day I got a black flag. I got to the hot pits where they told me I smoke. I returned to my hole and started investigating. I found that oil was leaking from the seam where the bolt head attached. It looks like the spot weld or whatever it was attached to failed. I am very fortunate that my bike bottomed out and at over 150 mph oil spilled on the rear wheel and it was caught before my engine failure occurred. Now filters are OEM only.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Reliability
