Longer oil filter

[Clarkkent]

 I'm looking for the number for the longer oil filter for the 1500. 

I know the short filter is 6607.   

Thanks  in advance.  CK.

I'm pretty sure that is a Purolator Pure One filter.

But the part number escapes me.

I don't know if it listed in Jeff K's Generic Valkyrie Parts Page in Shoptalk.

Technical Fitment Specification

OEM Motorcycle Oil Filters
You can't go wrong using the OEM filter for your motorcycle. However, sometimes these may be hard to find, especially on a Sunday or Monday, or in smaller communities, or you may think the OEM part is unnecessarily expensive. Or, you may want a better filter to further minimize engine wear. You deserve choices.
 
Alternate Motorcycle Oil Filters
If your motorcycle uses the Honda 15410-MM9-013 oil filter (most late model VFRs, CBRs, ST1100s, etc), following are some filters which are equivalent to and possibly superior to the Honda filter. These also fit most late-model Kawasaki sportbikes and Vulcans, plus most late-model Yamaha sportbikes, the VMAX, and the Royal Star. They also can be used on the mid-80s Magnas, Sabres, Interceptors, and Shadows. See Author's note #6, below for a comment about Suzuki oil filters.
Important: The only meaningful difference between all those shown below are external length. They all fit the 1994 to 1997 VFR, the CBR600s, and mid-80s Magnas and Sabres. Your motorcycle's clearance and available space for a spin-on filter may be different, so you need to consider that. The very shortest filters should fit anywhere. All threads and gasket dimensions are compatible, all have anti-drain back valves, and all have bypass valves that operate in the normal range of 8 to 13 psi range.

I run the Mobil-1 M1-110..walmart has them and they come in black

[98valk]

I use an oversized PureOne PL14459. larger dia, more filter media, same length as OEM.

be careful with a longer filter. some were cut open yrs ago and it was found that the filter media was same length as the shorter one.

Bosch 3323. Been running them since the original Walmart Supertech line was discontinued.

For Wix/Napa (same thing)

1356- this is the ~3.25" long "car" filter.

1358- this is the "motorcycle" filter. About 2.5" long. Instead of six (iirc) larger holes like the 56/65, this one has eight smaller ones

1365- This is the 2.5" long "car" filter.

All three will fit virtually any motorcycle that takes a spin-on.

Napa Gold is the same as Wix Regular. Napa platinum is the same as a Wix "XP".  On Wix-branded boxes, there's another number in front of the four digit code, which just refers to the economy/regular/premium level.

I've used all three. My Vmax had an oil pressure gauge, and I did notice it tended to be a bit lower using the longer 1356- less restriction from bigger filter, so not surprising. The 1358/1365 were about the same, and across the board a few psi higher. Maybe like 33 vs 30 psi at the same highway RPM. Not a huge difference. Both idled around 2-3psi, which was typical for the bike. High volume, lower pressure system.

I go for the 1356 just for a bigger surface area. They go on sale at napa couple times a year for like half off, so I grab a half dozen or so when I happen to catch it, or when they do the thing where you buy the bucket for a dollar and it's half off whatever you can fit in it. You can get about a dozen oil filters in it. lol

When trying to get the whole gallon in, it's better to have the longer filter.

This sounds vaguely obscene, but it's not.

I also use the whole gallon with a PureOne PL14610 Filter. It's not obscene, it's a good and convenient thing.

WOW!  THANKS TO ALL.     WHAT A  GROUP.  (YOU MEET THE NICEST PEOPLE ON VALKYRIES)  

I NOW HAVE ALL THE FILTER CHOICES I NEED.  (AND I HAVE 2 MONTHS) TO FIGURE OUT WHICH ONE TO USE!    ie:  we still have 24" of snow in the driveway!
