Title: K&N Oil Filter Post by built2last66 on 08/05/11 at 07:56:47 Hi, I was wondering what kind of oil you use with a KN-137 oil filter? Can you use the standard Suzuki SW-50 oil? Thanks. |

Title: Re: K&N Oil Filter Post by built2last66 on 08/05/11 at 09:16:47 Weird, because I used 2.5qts of SW-50 and my oil gauge window is completely full when the bike is level... with a normal filter it would be in the center like it's supposed to be... |

What "normal filter" have you used? Does Fram make one that fits the LS650? |
Title: Re: K&N Oil Filter Post by built2last66 on 08/05/11 at 09:44:25 I was just using the generic oil filter from the Suzuki store.. when I first got the bike it needed a change, and I had to special order the K&N... The only thing I can think of is that I don't have the K&N oil filter seated completely straight, or either the K&N just doesn't require 2.5qts of oil? And yes, I did drain the oil first :D |

I've driven it about 2 miles to see it the levels would change, but it's still full. |
Title: Re: K&N Oil Filter Post by RadRacer on 08/06/11 at 23:04:40 did u lean the bike hard over side to side a couple times when draining u might have left about 1/2 quart old oil still in motor when u added the new. cam sits in a bathtub up top of motor |
