Remote oil filter on a triumph

It's a good idea. Install in the return line.

was that the Trump that you just picked up? when did ya chop that baby? looks good, thats for sure

Yep that was the one I picked up last winter..Wouldn't be right If I didn't add my own touch to it!

You can get a volkswagon dune buggy set up for about 15 to 20 bucks at Dunebuggy supply in Minnesota or Scat or any dune buggy shop for cheaper than any bike shop. But you should be aware that if your using an automotive spin on filter, usually the spring loaded bypass valve is not set up at the same pressure as a bike. usually not a problem if your doing regular oil changes.

Don't see why not. Looks good and I like the copper tubing.

Remote oil filter set-up.

Has anyone installed a remote oil filter system using a big old FRAM oil filter or the like? I'd seen it here and there on this board, particularly on one of Truth's bikes.
Does this system have true merit? Just for looks? How does it install?

Run mine like the pics teach posted. primary side just a lil more verticle just in front of my sidemount lic plate.

Re: Remote oil filter set-up.

have used remote filters on last 3 builds... I like to run mine off the backside of a license plate/taillight bracket...that way, it acts as a cooler; hanging out there in the breeze, away from the pipes and engine, + the long lines to and from it adds another quart easily.....def. a good idea. Not to mention ease of filter change!! I use the SBC remote filter block from Summit Racing , its cheap; easy to mount anywhere and works well. my .02.
