Oil pan intermediate ring 25 mm with external oil filter from motoren isreal

Has anyone on this forum had experience with this nice looking after-market mod?

If so I have two questions. :
  1. Does it iterfere with the centre stand?
  2. Is the oil filter well clear of the balance pipe?

thanks

I believe the answer is yes to both questions. The only bad thing is there are no filters to be found other than through them.

A friend has one on his sidecar rig- he told me that it was a PIA to make it stop leaking oil from some plugs.
I didn't see the leakage myself.
I would not want one because the filter is exposed to anything the front wheel kicks up.
(But I do also think that changing the oil filter on an airhead is quite easy and quickly done so I don't really see the need for a spin on)
I have one of the rings without filter on one of my bikes and it's OK. (Except that it makes pulling and installing the engine a pain)

It's OK Dirtsurfer. Just an in joke.

These blokes who don't ride RS's or RT's With crash bars get a bit cheeky some times.
