Stop being tight. Get a new filter and new oil.

Order a K&N Oil Filter off eBay. I think I paid £10 and it included a new Oil Drain Valve.

Its better to scrap together £10 for a oil filter rather than mess up the bike and it costs £100s to repair..

I thought you were studying Bike Mechanics, you should know better than this.

HG might still be doing the 4ltr oil for £19.99 with a free Hiflo filter

Barwel I may have a Hiflow in the house if you wanting one, I'm sure the curvy and pointy use the same.

Mine got a OEM after a sump plug mishap and a trip to a dealers sratching for work.
