I don't  have  the  time  to hunt up the thread  ,sorry..
TheBeast needs  an oil change stat ! LOL
SO Now  that Super Tech is  long gone  and  I'm through all of  my extras.

What  filter  is  as  good  or better than the  ST6607?

Has  anyone  tried  : HIFLO FILTRO HF303 I think that is  the  correct number..

Thanks in advance.

For 14 years my bike has mostly used PL14459 by Purolator. WIX and NAPA filters appear to be the same items with different labels.  Look for a filter that fits a 2013 Hyundai Elantra 1.8L.

As the ST filters are unavailable, the others are going to cost around $10 each.

I'm not a fan of  the  longer  filters...
I prefer the shorter filters.
And  would  like  to find  a  USA  made  one..
But I think the last one is moot.

Sorry for the odd silly Q..

So will my filter wrench still fit it ?
(1) 2 27/32  aka 65-68 MM

my little paper that I keep in my wallet says Purolator.- L14612 is the oem match...

The wrench you have probably wouldn't fit the PL14459. Personally, I dont use a wrench.
The extra diameter of it makes it easy to grip and remove without tools.

Walmart still sells the SuperTech 6607. If it's not on the shelf it is at Walmart.com

I use  Mobil1 M110A as it works on the Valks, ST1300s, and my 2020 Ridgeline.
I ride a motorcycle because nothing transports me as quickly from where I am to who I am.

The oil info on the "oil guy" loves the Purolater "BOSS" filters. I've been using them for a long time. The part #s are PBL14610 for the longer unit and PBL14612 for the standard length. When Pep Boys closed their retail stores, I had to order them on Amazon. The oil filter wrench works on these units.

Been using the K&N KN303 black or KN303C chrome since 2009. They have a "nut" on top so you can use a 3/4 socket or box end wrench to remove or install. Amazon 19.95 black. No issues with full synthetic oil and it looks like new when drawing out after 3 - 5 K miles. Local auto parts stores like auto one carry them also. Happy oil changes !
