Hiflofiltro - Oil Filter HF170C Chrome

The Hiflofiltro HF170C is a spin-on replacement oil filter with a chrome-finished canister, made for riders who service their own bikes and want a tidy, OEM-standard part on show. It is a straight replacement service item, fitted at each scheduled oil change.

Hiflofiltro builds its filters to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, and the range carries TÜV approval — useful reassurance when a filter is the last line of defence between your oil and your engine's bearings.

Please confirm the HF170C is the correct filter for your make, model and year against your owner's manual or a current Hiflofiltro application listing before ordering.

Replace the oil filter at every oil change, following the service interval in your motorcycle's owner's manual.
Drain the old oil before removing the filter so it empties more cleanly, and take care — oil and components may be hot.
Smear a light film of clean engine oil over the new filter's rubber sealing ring before fitting; this helps it seat correctly and makes the next removal easier.
Check that the old sealing ring has come away with the used filter — fitting a new filter over a stuck gasket will cause leaks.
Screw the filter on by hand until the gasket contacts the mounting face, then tighten to the torque specified by your motorcycle manufacturer. Do not over-tighten.
Refill with the correct grade and quantity of oil, run the engine briefly, then check around the filter for leaks and re-check the oil level.
Single use only — do not attempt to clean, flush or refit a used filter.
Store spares in their original packaging in a cool, dry place; wipe the chrome housing with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive polishes or solvents.
Drain used filters and take them, along with the used oil, to a recycling or waste-oil collection facility rather than putting them in general waste.
