    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I'm having a hard time finding an oil filter for my '84 GS750EF, anyone else having a hard time this year? I've tried walmart, Napa, PepBoys... Advance autoparts... a few places. I've been trying to find a Non Fram filter but at this point I'll take what I can get....

Anyone know if Napa has a new PN? They couldn't find the one bwinger (?) noted in another thread. 24931 or 24913 I think it was...

Anyone know another Fram number that has the same filter element? I'd risk reusing the o-ring from my last change if I had to...

EDIT: Answered part of my own question. I found a cross reference here:

And it looks like Fram PH6001 uses the same filter as PH6000, they are listed at the bottom of the page.

I order mine from cyclerecycle online. They dont stock Fram. They arrive priority mail in 3 days usually.

Thanks for the info guys. I found one at another NAPA store that I didn't know was there... oddly you can't see it from the street at all! Anyway I've got a Napa GOld 4931 filter in there now with a new o-ring and crush washer. I filled it up with (the only oil you think is acceptable to put in a GS) so don't worry about that!

If you have Advanced Auto Parts in your area they carry them and if they are out of stock they will order them for you. I have about 12 of them on the shelf complete with the o-ring.
 
Hidden NAPA's

Hidden NAPA's

I think hiding NAPA's is a brand thing...... they (supposedly) moved the one in my hometown to a location unknown
 
When I change the oil I usually restock my parts shelf with another
 
Found mine at Carquest. I like their oil filters alot.

Advance carries these in Colorado, may just have to ask them to order for you.
