I wouldn't hesitate a second to use either of these filters on my 650

1. Napa Gold 7046

2. Carquest Premium 84046

I especially like the 20psi bypass on the Napa Gold 7046

The Carquest is white, but only 5$, so I'd spray bomb it black first

Cross reference those numbers to find plenty of others that'll fit these bikes

People supposedly in the know claim the regular Wix and the Napa Gold are exactly the same thing. I'll be dissecting them both
and testing their bypass to know for sure. Starting to think that 21psi bypass figure for the Napa Gold on the Napa site is a typo.
Should probably read 12 psi. I was lucky to find a quite old Napa Gold 7046 to compare with the new ones to see if they've cheapened it out over time

Would be great if the current Wix were actually identical to the Napa Gold because Amazon prime will send the Wix to
your house for under 5$. I also believe they are black now?

Okay so I m having a brain fart moment.

Which filter then is a fit for the 650? 

Again what after market filter will fit?

Thanks

These three filters are the only ones I have actually measured. I have "NOT" screwed them onto a bike however!!
I don't have my bike yet so I can't say absolutely for sure

When the filter nipple threads and the oil filter threads just begin to thread together there must be at least 3/8"
space between the filter gasket and the engine for the filter threads to completely engage

As far as I can tell, the Wix and the Napa gold are exactly the same. All three are very high quality made in the USA

1. Wix 57046

2. Napa Gold 7046

3. Carquest Premium 84046

I can only verify that they do fit as I've actually screwed them onto the nipple.

I don't plan on running them or the stock filter either. Not that I think anything is wrong with them, just that I believe the "purolator boss" is the best spin-on filter for high flow synthetic oil that money can buy at this time anywhere in the world. Using the Boss requires a nipple with different threads though. My bike will be up till April, but when I'm riding it again the Boss will be on it along with either a 0-40 or 5-40 oil in it

I found a thread on reddit that said a Mobil1 M1-104A would work. Cross referencing with other brands show that the Fram ph6017a (which i would not use) and a wix 51358 or Napa Gold 1358 (which I would use) should also work. For what its worth triumph bikes with spin-on filters also use these filters as far as I can tell and this engine was designed by formerly triumph engineers. Hopefully one of these companies will give us some compatibility info soon!

Thanks.  Need to do my first O/F change.  Won't dare ask what oil others are using, but the manual says it needs to be a Synthetic 10-40/10-50...  tp dd50

I am much more interested in finding a decent protective cover to slip over the oil filter to act as a rock guard.  I won't install a sump guard because I NEVER go off road and the darned things make it extremely difficult to lift the bike on my bike lift.

I like this one https://www.tecbikepartsusa.com/TEC_Heavy_Duty_CNC_Laser_Cut_Alloy_Sump_Guard_Ba_p/re-bp-b.htm but a bit pricey. But looks solid.

Sorry - that's only the bash guard and not an actual filter COVER as Jimku was describing. But I still might pick one up.

I'd be very interested in knowing this as well. I use Mobil1 filters in my vehicles and have never had an issue.

You may like like the decorative bash plate from TEC. it is held on with hose clamps. It will protect the filter but not really the engine.

Based on my research and measurement, this will be the perfect oil filter alternative, it has the exact OD and ID, and slightly less tall. But not easy to find. Can use it to cross reference other brands.

Ordered my oil today and now have to get the filter. Thinking of the Mobil 1 M1-104 as posters have noted it fits perfectly. Any yay or nay on that one?
