I like this feature, "The removable end cover allows for easy drain, preventing used fluid from draining onto the crankcase. "

These filters would make it a lot easier to veiw what's floating around in the filter, but at $270, I'll just keep cutting mine apart and looking inside.

I also looks like they filter smaller particles then the spin on type of oil filter

The Super 5 filter for the Twin cam motor lists for 13.95.
I cut one open the other day, very well made filter, looks like a K&N style, and it's chrome.

sounds great, just cleaning with some diesel :)
so i think, this would be the much better choice. especially, if they would add the H-D drain feature ;)

I'd pay $100, but not $270.

Another HD platinum plated part at the "Nice Price".

AMSOIL Ea Oil Filters for me, and a coke bottle funnel.
