Oil Filter Part number?

[cloudbreakmd]

Detman is comming over tomorow (way early I might add), so we could finish the bike tomorow (Replacment starter number 2...sigh).
In the mean time, I thought i would change the oil and filter. Motorcycle oil I have, but no filter (yet). Going to go by Advanced Auto Parts tomorow morning. I was wondering if anybody knew the part number for the oil filter for my 1983 GS750T 16 valve motor? Fram or Purolator I guess.

I think it's Fram CH6000 or CH6001... Can anybody confirm this?

CH6000.

Auto Zone used to stock STP motorcycle filters although some locations have dropped them, came with the 'O' ring too. I don't know that number.

Thank you much... How many quarts of oil do I need?

Hmmm, you got me there. But I'd say 3+/-. My Concours takes three with a filter change, My 550 takes 2.7. What I would do is put in 2.5 quarts of oil. Change the starter. Then put her on the centerstand on level ground, start her up, shift it thru the gears. Shut bike off and top off according to the sight glass after the bike has sat for at least 5 minutes.

The Suzuki filter should not cost more than $5 at your local dealer. I always figured why buy a cheapie when the real thing is cheap enough.
