Author Message   Jguthery Posted on Tuesday, August 07, 2007 - 06:32 pm:        Okay I'm going to do my first fluids change on my 2002 X1 and I can't find an oil filter to replace the one on my bike. After searching the archives on this site I got a list of potential filters. I went to three stores and could only find a K&N HP 3001 and a Bosch 3330. Both were very different from each other. The K&N was way too big and the black Bosch is what I would consider a shorty filter compared to the long black filter that is currently on my bike. I have read in the archives about using a Dyna filter that is long (and I think black). Does anyone have a model # for that filter or one just like it. I would like to put a filter that is just like the one on my bike. I have looked the filter over on my bike, but see no markings or numbers to tell me what it is. So does anyone have a # for the Dyna filter or a long (extra capacity) filter and where could I get it. Between the HD shop (very rude), Advance, and Auto Zone I could only find the (shorty) Bosch and the (wrong) K&N. If anyone could help I would be greatly appreciative or if you can direct me to an archived post that I am missing that would be great. Thanks, Jason   Buellgekk Posted on Tuesday, August 07, 2007 - 06:51 pm:        I don't know the partnumber, but just go to your local HD dealer and ask for the long dyna filter. Long is better for cooling.   Chasespeed Posted on Tuesday, August 07, 2007 - 07:08 pm:        use the K&N HP 3001 I have been running that for over 2 years. There is room... It holds a bit more oil than the dyna filter... and more oil is better...

It has a 8 oz. greater fluid capacity plus it's half the cost!

I have chromophobia, so I get the black one.   Djkaplan Posted on Wednesday, August 08, 2007 - 10:04 am:        I like the long Dyna filter because it sticks out far enough so you can poke a hole in the end to drain it, and not drip oil on the engine.   Jguthery Posted on Wednesday, August 08, 2007 - 02:51 pm:        Thanks everyone for the info. I picked up the black dyna long filter today. Take it easy.
