Author Message   01fxdx Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 06:58 am:        i just received mine ups yesterday!! dave now has these things available for 1125 engines. kandpengineering.com   Freezerburn840 Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 10:52 am:        part # 2158?   Thefleshrocket Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 12:19 pm:        Never heard of K&P Engineering. What would be the reason to go with their filters over the HiFlo ones, or any other brand for that matter?   Sprintst Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 12:22 pm:        Well, looks reusable The K&P Engineering filter element is made from medical grade, type 304 stainless steel micronic filter cloth to provide unmatched protection against oil contamination and resultant engine damage. A one inch square of this material flows an incredible 1.9 gallons of oil per minute at only 1 PSI pump pressure. The adhesive used in the filter assembly process is good to 600 degrees Fahrenheit, far above normal engine operating temperatures. A super strength nickel-plated neodymium rare earth magnet is installed in the top of the element for magnetic pre-filtering of the oil. The sophisticated bypass is engineered for proper differential pressures and consistent operation, delivering a greater percentage of filtered oil while being very easy to clean. The twist lock design assures positive filter element placement and allows for easy disassembly, inspection and cleaning. The quad-ring gasket doubles the seal between the filter and the engine. Finally, the filter housing is carved out of a solid chunk of 6061T6 billet aluminum, which not only looks trick but aids in dissipating heat.} (Message edited by sprintst on July 20, 2011)   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 12:44 pm:        quote: Finally, the filter housing is carved out of a solid chunk of 6061T6 billet aluminum, which not only looks trick but aids in dissipating heat. Gonna be hard to see it...   Dcmortalcoil Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 07:56 pm:        It's also sold by Scotts (part S27) made by KN Eng. I got one also but haven't installed it yet. I got it after the dragsters were all raving about how good they are.   Thefleshrocket Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 09:34 pm:        Oh, so it's one of those reusable filters that you'll only break even on compared to stock if you keep your bike for at least 50k miles or do excessively frequent oil changes?   Boogiman1981 Posted on Wednesday, July 20, 2011 - 09:40 pm:        saw it priced at 78 plus shipping. if i can keep getting the rotax ones for 10 each then yeah about that. however at 15 each a little sooner and 20 each a lot sooner than 50k
