Spin-on pressure side oil filter

This spin-on oil filter kit is available from Michael "Mercury" Morse at www.vintagebrake.com . Believe the cost is under $90 and yes the cartridges are available in chrome.

The thing has drawn raves from purchasers on the micapeak list. Unlike most previous spin-on filters this is a pressure side filter, most of the others are suction side from the bottom sump plate like this one:

Thats awesome. I've been looking for one of those kinds of filter set ups. How come when I click the link, all I see is brake stuff? Do we need to contact them to get the filter kit?

You can email or phone Michael (he loves talking bikes and is a gold mine of tuning, handling and braking info) or go direct to www.650central.com which he now owns. I think the price is $85 less the cartridge which you can buy at any auto parts store.
