Okay, I am having a sale on the last 15 RPM spin on oil filter conversion kits.

RPM Spin-On Oil Filter Adapter

I have gone to a new manufacture and have changed the design slightly. The design change was done to address the only complaint people have ever had about the adapter; the hole for the socket wasn't large enough and some sockets had to be ground down to fit inside.

So, some minor changes to the new version that are being made and I need to move these last 15 before I can start selling the new ones.

The other good news about the new design of the RPM oil filter conversion is that I am going to be able to hold the price for this current batch that is ready for me at the end of the week.

So, if you have been on the fence about getting one, now is the time to buy one at a reduced price of over $10.00. The new adapter will again sell for $48.95 after these 15 are gone.

Thank you for your continued support.

I will add that Randy ships international. I've installed the original design filter mod with no problems at all. :good2:

Thanks Mark. The design was never because of a problem, only complaints about not being able find a socket(s) that would fit the hole. So, since I was having more made, I figured it was time to try and address the issue so that way there is not anything for anyone to complain about.

Plus, I forgot to mention the benefit that a lot of people have told me and like Alf have posted the slave seals are lasting longer due to the adapter allow more air flow around the slave and not heat soaking the seals.

I wanted to keep my 84 completely stock but there were to many benefits to the spin on filter. I also think it improves the look of the bike. It was absolutely no trouble to install........Randy did it. Didn't take him long either. I think he had done one or two before......... :sarcastic:Dave

And very important: that the bike run 2-3º C cooler when riding hard. It could be look like peanuts, but it is important for the part of us that ride on the sporty side, that go into closed racetracks, that have our bikes tuned or that simply live in hot climates. The extra quantity of oil and the more exposed air filter area help

^^ good point Alf, along with the fact that Randy's oil coolers kick ass.... :good:

Yes, it is just the adapter and center bolt. The o-ring from the canister can be used over or you can purchase a new one.

Dave,
You need to get over the "keep it stock" mentality.  You can keep the appearance 99.99% stock and still do a lot of very good mods; wheels, brakes, spin-on adapter, oil cooler, shock, fork valves, straight rate springs, Corbin seat, ...

Did you get fork vavles when you visited Randy?  Does the anti-dive still (not) work?

I agree with you, FJ Hooligan. I keep "stock" my CBX 750 BolDor because it is the only one in Spain... but I fitted SS screws all around, good pads, braided lines, modern tyres (even I keep the OEM rims)...  and I´ve improved the suspension front & back. You only can maintain "stock" your bike if you don´t use it. If not, in order to ride safe, why do not use XXI century knowledge in order to improve a 30 years old design?

Take a look at the boys at Sanctuary and say me those bikes look better in "stock" form :nyam1:

I bought one and Randy isn't a fan of me. Appears to be a good product.
