EMGO Oil filter question
06/12/08 at 06:31:39

I ordered the EMGO aftermarket oil filter (good price at Bike Bandit). I was assured that, though the box says LS650, it would fit the S40. I get the order in, and it says LS650 '86-'88, and it's alot shorter. Same diameter, just shorter. Unfortunately I don't have one of my factory jobs to compare it too.I foolishly put that in the bike last oil change.

The order number for this part is DM09DUH, SN#1935692. Does anyone have experience with these filters in the Savage/S40? Will they fit/function in my 2008 model? Thanks Savages.

It works ok. It lets in alot more air than the stock filter. But it does a poor job of actually filtering anything.

If you're looking for a good filter, then I would suggest the one sold here at Suzukisavage.com.

It is custom made to Lancer's specs (he's a perfectionist!). It fits without modification, provides superior filtering than the Emgo or the K&N, yet allows more air flow.

I would forget about the cheap imitations and get the real thing...

Everything I say is fully substantiated by my own opinion.

I've read that post in the tech section, and am considering it. Supposed to be getting a magnetic oil drain plug for father's day. Wife says "that's a stupid gift idea", she just doesn't get it. We'll see tommorrow. Ride safe, Jay
