What oil filters are available?

This list shows oil filters which are a direct replacement for the Kawasaki unit sold by dealers. Most are around half the price of the Kawasaki filter. The part #'s on this list were checked in July, 2007. We were unable to verify the accuracy of the CarQuest one online. The Yamaha, Triumph, and Honda #'s were checked on cross-reference lists. The others were verified through the filter manufacturers' web sites.

  • Amsoil: SMF 101 (No longer available. Replaced by WIX 24941.)
  • CarQuest: CFI-89941
  • Emgo: 10-37500 (includes O-rings) 10-20300 (doesn't have O-rings)

At least one of these filters will be available at any reasonable auto parts store, such as AutoZone, Pep Boys, Schucks/Kragen/Checker, NAPA, Wal-Mart, etc. This is not a common part, so they may not always be in stock. Plan ahead. The two O-rings for the filter should be included. Check the box.

If you can't find these brands at your favorite auto parts store, check to see if they have a cross-reference chart for the brand of filters they carry; most filter manufacturers do. Cross-reference their brand to one of the filters listed above.
