I currently have a stock, Napa gold, Fram, and Walmart oil filter cut apart and sitting on my bench. I'm waiting till it's time to cut open the Mobile 1 filter that is currently on the bike before I make a decision. So far the Napa is my favorite. Not impressed with the Fram and Walmart.
That is just my opinion

Anyway I can get you to put a puralator pure one pl14610 in the test?
I've read the PL and the mobile1 where the best in price range.

You are absolutely right,
I just started comparing them when I was cutting them open looking for signs of trouble and thought I'd publish the findings.
The Fram and Wally World filter's were off of other folks bikes. The Napa and stock filter were off of mine. The Mobile 1 will be coming up.
I think I have a buddy who runs the Purolators. I'll check with him. I'va also heard good things about the Purolators. Maybe I'll give them a try.
Later,
Tom

I have been running the Purolator Pure 1 on my 14 since new. Purolator filters have always scored pretty well in comparison tests so I will continue to use them on my bike, my street car and my race car.
Oh, and BTW, I thought it was spelled Mobil 1?

You mainly have to crudely cut it with a die grinder or use a pipe cutter to open it. It's crimped together so there is no easy way to open it.
Aircraft tool manufacturers make specialized cutters that work like a can opener to cut filters open. You have to open airplane engine filters when you take them off and inspect the filter element for metal etc. The openers are a little pricey, but they work great!
Aircraft Spruce and Supply and Wag Aero sell some fairly inexpensive versions.
