The Fram PH6065B Extra Guard filter is the one you want to use.<br>I have opened this filter up and the Harley filter and have taken the pleats out and the fram has more filter area than the Harley. The Ph6065B has metal caps and is more money. They are about $12.00 in Chrome. I think the black ones are $1.00 cheaper. You can't use the cheapest filter for a comparison. Buy a PH6065B and open it up and take the filter pleats out and compare it to the Harley. The old harley filters where the same as the Fram PH6065B but the new ones have been downgraded from the old ones.

KN filter case is thicker to handle the torque that may be applied from the nut on the case

I use the filter used by the Harley Davidson racing team. The PC FLOW stainless steel mesh. It filters down to 35 microns, it’s reusable, and it has a magnet to catch metal particulate you wipe off. You clean it with degreaser/ or brake cleaner and the filter will not break down or separate and can stand up to 600 degrees not that you want a hog to get that hot.

Hiflofiltro is what I use.<br><br>Most damage done to a Harley engine is not because of an oil filter, but is done by the lack of Harley product validation. The best oil filter won't prevent crank runout, overheating, sumping, ticking, or cam tensioner wear.

Looks like you bought the Fram PH6022 filter instead of the Fram PH6065B, which is the filter Jay W Case outlined in his video comparing it to the Harley filter from 1996 and to the current Harley filter, which is junk! The quality of the Fram PH6065B is outstanding!

I saw a similar video showing the HD filter was made by the same company that makes super tech (walmart) and they're very similar.
