If this has already been discussed on the forum please forgive me - I've looked and haven't seen anything on the subject, but I know that oil and filter threads drive some people crazy.
I bought a new '14 last weekend and broke it in by riding it from Newport Beach to the Bay Area the same day. I'm getting ready to start using it as my commuter and want to get new oil and a new filter in it. I've got filters that I've been using for years and was wondering if any of them might be fit compatible before I pull the original and find out I'm stranded until I can get to a shop.
From one of the other N1K forums I saw someone using a Wix 51358. From another website I found a Puralator and Fram filter that were compatible with the Wix. I happen to have a shelf full of Purulator PureOne 14612 filters which seem pretty standard. Have a M20x1.5 thread, gasket OD of 2.491" and just under 3" long. This one fit pretty much every Yamaha made since 2006 and also fits my '06 ZX6R. I also have a couple Champion CL7317 filters that fit on my FJR1300. They're the same thread as the PureOne 14612 but longer.
From oilfilterdata.com, it looks like the Wix and Purolator ML16817 have the same thread as the 14612 that I have and similar diameter though not exactly the same, so I'm guessing its gonna work, but thought I'd throw it out here to see if anyone has firm findings that these will work.
So here's the direct question: has anyone successfully fit any of these 3 filters to a '14 or '15 N1K? (P/N on the bike now is Kawi 16097-0008)
Purolator PureOne 14612
Champion CL7317
Kawasaki 16097-0004 (ZX6R OEM)
One more note - just looked up the fiche on Bike Bandit for both the '06 ZX6R and the '14 Ninja 1000 and they both show the same BB p/n for the oil filter (3233406) even though the Kawi part numbers are different.
Thanks to anyone who replies back with either confirmation or rejection - I'm going to give it a shot tonight and will update this post later.
thanks
