Title: Champion oil filter
Post by: Chubnut on August 24, 2019, 11:16:54

I have just been to Halfords for a Champion oil filter ( as I get trade discount) They have no way of identifying which filter is for any motorbike. :icon_exclaim: Don't really know why they are bothering to sell them. I have tried the Champion website, again with no luck. Would anyone here know which is the correct one for my 650?

Just an 'aside' to Halfords.

I went into Cambridge Halfords on Newmarket Road for car filter(s). They no longer stock them as they made no money (I suppose stocking all possible filters for ever might not have any profit.......) but they could order them in from Euro Car Parts just round the corner, add a margin on and then sell them! Stupid boy, or what? I drove round the corner and bought them at the lower price.  :roll:
