Plus it has a magnetic pre-filter.

Speaking of filters, did you ever change oil on an old VW bug? They use a screen for a filter, just like a window screen. Keeps the big parts out of the pump and engine. Nothing filters out the acids like a good oil change.

I think I remember Drewpy saying that's how the lil' Rebel was... or maybe it was the Nighthawk...

I just did an oil change on the KTM, took a little less than an hour. I love working on bikes, it's therapeutic and fun. (Even though the KTM can be a bitch to do!)

I've checked into the re-useable filters several times. I just don't keep a bike past 3 years so it'll never pay for itself. Oh and I alwas use either Amsoil or Repsol 0w50. Although I think I'm gonna stick to Asoil 20w50 from now on. It's probably me but I feel as though I get excessive engine noise with the Repsol.
