I recently learned Yamaha has now gone to a smaller oil filter for the Fjr. Anyone know why?

I just traveled over to NEPRT, home of all things oil, tires, gas & spark plugs and found that we were discussing this very thing just a day or two ago. This is what we had to say.

Yes, the old filters were too big and filtering too much oil too well. With the smaller filters, the engines will get less oil to the important parts and wear faster. This will help Yamaha sell more motorcycles because their engines will stop lasting 300,000 plus miles.

It's all about money with some people.
