2003 Volusia Wix Filter

[JimNastic316]

Been using EA oil filters on my bike since I bought it new, but seems like the filter and Amsoiloil price has been creeping up, so I'm looking around for another filter. Using the lookup on Wix website it says to use Wix 51359.
Reading the amazon reviews, someone said that the Wix website is wrong and the filter didn't fit his Suzuki.
Anybody here have a Volusia, and use a Wix filter?

What the heck is a Volusia?
I live in Volusia County Florida.
They don't make filters here.

I usually take Amazon reviews with a shaker full of salt...
I don't have a Volusia, but I've had Suzukis and they pretty much all use the same spin-on oil filter (confirmed via the parts fiche for your bike). Unlike the other Japanese manufacturers, Suzuki filters use a 1mm thread pitch. According to the specs, the Wix 51359 should work.
If it doesn't fit for whatever reason, you can always return it.

I second the Wix 51359, been using them in my Volusia (Boulevard C50) for the past 15 years.
