Who makes synthetic oil filters for sport bikes?

Specifically a 2009 SUZUKI GSX-R600

I know there is K&N, Amsoil, but who else?

Thanks
 
IIRC, Suzuki uses a rare thread for their filters-at least they did.
So no auto version will fit your cycle.
Grab what you can, Many filter brands could care less about cycles.


My 2¢
 
I checked the Amsoil website and your specific model is not listed- as in maybe the model info is wrong ? I see other variations though.
Generally all the Suzuki 600 cc and up bikes in USA and Canada use the same model filter. I agree that Suzuki used to , and still does, use an oddball thread that limits your choices.

Wix 51359 and Amsoil EAOM109 are specified for all the other Suzuki's. Mobil 1 might make a filter. Find out the original filter make and model and use the various cross reference tools.

Emgo Micro Glass oil filters.
Just because you may not have heard of Emgo do not discount it, they make a "10 Micron Micro glass filter" for your bike, in both chrome and black.
Ive use Emgos on all my past metrics, great filter, heavy OEM feel and sealed in plastic.

Dont discount this filter just because it cost you under $10. :eek:)

I believe this is the part for your bike, CONFIRM anything I posted here, havent owned a metric for a while and havent used them for a while.
Emgo 10-55662

Another brand you may not know is Hi-flo, a BIG company.

From this site

Or you could find an adapter for the 20x1.0 thread to a 20x1.5 thread to have a lot more choices.
you would need a 19 mm x 1.6 to 20 mm x 1.5 adapter for it. There used to be a site selling them (http://balestech.com/filter.htm) but site is not working now.

The adapter looks like a great idea but not sure how it would work in racing applications. I might give it a try or just use the cheapest filter as I change oil each event.
