It seems everything for those motocross bikes is more expensive.
Incidentally, I really like my Zongshen oil filters, which are not pleated. The non-pleated oil filters are much easier to clean. The pleated filters can hold more debris, but since I clean my oil filter with every oil change, I don't need the extra surface area. Spud

That's what I figured. I bought a second non-pleated filter, so I'll just keep the pleated filter as a spare.

Which non-pleated oil filter did you buy? Is the mesh silver, or colored such as the pleated oil filter?

Silver, IIRC. I think it's a Tusk filter.

That's great! You've got to love Tusk products, and Rocky Mountain ATV/MC.

I don't have to hassle with buying from RMATVMC and then crossing the border, because Gnarly Parts buys from them and keeps the prices the same. I can order whatever I like and walk in and pick it up.

The Zongshen fuel tank really does look nice on your TW200, Weld.
Are you still riding your ATV, Turbo? You have a Japanese dirt bike, don't you? Spud

I bug him virtually every day about riding. He's tied up with baseball and long work hours. I'll get him out one day.
