I never seem to plan out when I want to do an oil change with plans to order this kind of mundane supply well in advance.
There was a time that Canadian Tire stores were a 50/50 chance they'd have a Fram but now that seems to be dwindling.

Any generic stores that are my last best hope for a filter this weekend? I stock up ahead from now on, promise.

(no lectures about the spin on please. I'll be getting to that about #11 on my list of things to do with this bike.)
If someone wants to see any images I refer to in posts, first check my gallery here. If no bueno, send me a PM. More than glad to share.

Royal Distributing in Guelph (519) 822-7081, Zdeno Cycle in Kitchener (519) 745-7010...local UAP Nappa, Walmart, etc should have Fram CH6006 filters :scratch_one-s_head:

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in an attractive & well preserved body...but rather to slide in sideways, body completely worn out and and with your last dying breath screaming, "HOOOYA LIFE, lets try that again"!!!

 There is a Honda filter that works as well. Not sure which one, the local Yamaha, Honda store sold me the Honda filter, as it is cheaper than the Yamaha.

I took one in the tailpipe and paid $14.99 for the last K&N-401 under lock and key (not joking) at CTC in Brampton.
The rest of my shopping trip today was a bust right across the board, so that was the big purchase of the day. I definitely spent more than $15 in gas but I want to be riding for the next 3 to 4 days a.s.a.p.
