    Hiflofiltro HF204RC... the exact brand/reference I use in my Yamaha MT07 (FZ in América). The nut at the end of the filter comes in handy to screw/unscrew the filter, and the housing seems to be a little sturdier than the regular non-RC version. For 8 bucks a piece (price in Spain), is a no brainer.

      @@MrAlkanet-nt9ic the housing doesn't do any filtering, but being the oil filter usually very exposed, it doesn't hurt that the canister is made of a thicker sheet of metal. Also, it reduces the chances of the filter bursting, which is uncommon, but possible.

      I just got mine, glad it's thicker. 2014: "There's smoke coming off your bike!" I said "It's just WD40". Then I saw the oil squirting on the floor as it idled, the Suzuki SV650 filter had rust and leaked out a pinhole on the dome top (horizontal fit).
      I'm replacing the OEM filter again due to rust after only 2 years. The filter gets caked in mud and dried grass(?) and left in a damp shed.

    Ive used hiFlo in all my bikes. Change my oil every 1500 miles. Use 15W40 wal mart diesel oil. Totally no problems. Oil breaks down quickly, and becomes contaminated. Why pay for expensive synthetics wnen they get contaminated just as fast as conventional oils? Love my bike, Love my oil. Love my HiFlo filter so much that I sleep with it under my pillow.

    • @Ritalie
      @Ritalie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You should do a comparison with synthetic. It's well known that heat soak burns and darkens regular non-synthetic oil. When you shut off your engine, the engine is basically 400 degrees, and the oil sits and cooks in the cylinder head, and on the backs of the pistons, and the heat soaks into the oil and overheats some spots of the stagnant oil, and "cokes" the oil and makes it turn black. That's why you run synthetic, because it generally handles much higher heat without burning or evaporating. Regular oil evaporates too during heat soak, where as synthetic does not evaporate nearly as quickly. Project Farm on TH-cam has the best oil reviews.

    Is black Nitrile safe for use as the drainback reed valve flap? Does Nitrile rubber turn hard and brittle and cause loss of oil at startup? I know silicone is totally indestructible and doesn't turn brittle, even if you have it directly next to the engine.

    Hello. I'm doing my research about oils and oil filters. Would be nice if you can give a diagnosis about AHL 204 oil filter. In their description, they state everything the other filters do. The only difference is that they're made in China and very inexpensive. Would be nice to know from someone who understands. Thanks.

      I would NEVER use a racing filter on a stock engine, because you want a stock paper filter. Only the stock paper filter media actually works to filter properly. Synthetic and other "racing" media are just a pure scam as Fort Nine showed in his review video on his channel.
