Anybody know where I can find a chrome oil filter? I was told I need to change the oil every 300 miles. I've got a 2001 fatboy with 600 miles on it, so I figure it's about time for an oil change. And chrome is sweet. How much will this cost me?

napa sells oil filters that will fit hd's, and they also offer a chrome type. u just have to do a cross reference on their site, and btw, u dont need to change the oil every 300. i prefer to change it no later than 3000, preferably at about 2500 miles.

You can get a chrome oil filter for your HD right from the dealer. Personally, I use K&N brand oil filters (some models available in chrome), the best part is they have a 17mm nut built right onto the end for easy install/removal. Any bike shop will be able to get you one.

3000 miles with conventional oil. K&N has chrome filters

Yeah....right.
You don't need to change your filter with oil changes. It is just there for show. Harley uses 600 year old technology and they haven't figured out how to filter the oil. In fact, they rely on extreme engine vibration to distribute the oil. You should have spent half the money for a plastic 750cc jap bike and claim it is the fastest thing on the road.
