🔍 Fram PH6017A Full-Flow Spin-On Oil Filter for Motorcycles Review

I drove over 5000 miles with this Fram filter last season. No problem. I used to use a K&N filter that cost twice as much. That was good too. The KN's only advantage is that it has a handle so it can be removed with a simple mechanical key, while the Fram does not. But after lubricating the rubber…
