Search is your friend. That being said, I use a blue Honda factory filter for Honda automobiles 'cause that's what's in the barn.

All Valks take the same filter.
This is the info from Jeff K's page in "shoptalk" I use Napa Gold 1358 because I order all my oil & filters from them, for all my machines, and delivery is free.
====================================================================
Oil Filters The following numbers have been verified. Purolator ML 16817 Mobil 1 M1-110 The following numbers have not been tested by me, they were referred to me. I believe they all fit the bike but aftermarket chrome covers might not.
AMSOIL SDF-13 Fram PH 6017 STP S-02808 AC PF1127 or PF1051 LEE LF2808 or LF2808HP Purolator L14459 Wix 51334 GM 94149418 Mazda N231-23-802 Mitsubishi MD097003 Motorcraft FL810
K&N oil filter KN-303 Black K&N oil filter KN-303C Chrome
Emgo Paper element 10-82220 Microglass Element 10-82222 Both are chrome
Emgo 10-82230 is black and the Cobra chrome cover will fit.
Amsoil SMF-103 SMF-103C (Chrome) Wal-Mart ST filters are made by Champion Labs who also make STP, Bosch and Mobil-1 filters. ST6607 52 sq in of media. same size as OEM ST7317 62 sq in media same dia 1/2 longer then OEM ST3593A (160 sq in? not confirmed) larger dia but shorter than ST3717 all of the above have the required 8-11 psi by-pass valve.

I just changed mine yesterday. I was using my second Purolator L14459, white housing.
Discovered after complete, that there was fresh oil under the filter. Pulled it off, and slapped on a Honda OEM. While placing it on, something fell off the motor, completed installing the filter.
Picked up a black o-ring. It was the seal from the old oil filter. That is why my Puro didn't seal, 2 seals on it. Saved the filter in a sandwich bag for next year's oil change. (Shell Rotella T6 synthetic).
I also bought a Fram, but haven't tried it yet. That one will be 2 years down the road. If I remember, around $3 each. Honda OEM, cost me $19 locally.

hi-flo number HF303 is same as K&N number KN303 and 5-7 bucks cheaper, same thing without the nut.
Also, if a carquest is nearby you, have them cross reference the WIX number 51334 mentioned above since carquest slaps their name on theirs but is made by WIX, another good option, think the number is 85334 in carquest auto parts store, but double check with them to be 100% sure. Both hi flo and carquest oil filters are black if that matters to anyone and both are under 10 bucks.

A few years ago I called Mobil oil to ask them a question about their oil filters ( I forget what the question was), but the person I was talking to couldn't answer the question so he gave me the number of the company that makes their filters. The person I talked to at the filter company said that they manufacture most of the major filter brands to their customer specs and that Mobil one filters were by far the best.

Purolator PL14612 filter and since it is an ugly mustard color, I cover it with a nice little Harley shock cover that is chrome plated. http://www.jpcycles.com/search/search?Ntt=7000095&N=28012814&Ntk=All (They come in pairs, but you can always find someone that is glad to get the extra cover.) I have bought 3 pairs over the years...Jim
