What Model Oil Filter?

I need to change my Oil Filter, and am going to reserve it on the Halfords website then pick it up in my local shop.

I have looked in the Manual, but can't seem to find the model name/number of the Oil Filter used in ZXR400's

Any Ideas?

Cheers

Speak to these guys, they will sort you out and give you discount on a filter and oil.

Go on...Just stuck one on my bike, had one on my previous bike too. Never noticed an issue, but interested why you think they're pants.

Because the filters aint that good at catching all the bits.
I've seen, and know about, waaay to many bikes that have popped due to the use of Hi-Flo filters.

TBH, people buy them for the name that sounds right and for the price.

Champion Oil Filters from Halfords mate, if memory serves right, F305 I think is the one you need

Hi Flo filters make OEM filters

after a few rounds of oil changes, i switched to a K & P filter.
since i change filter with every oil change every 2mths or 3000km, makes more sense since its lifetime re-usable.

looks good, didnt put it on a dyno yet but pretty sure throttle response has improved.
