Yamaha FZ-10 Oil Filter list of part numbers

If anyone finds that one of these Oil filters do not fit, update us here!

Hey guys, neither of the WIX filters worked for me, just a heads up.
Wix 51358
Wix 51365
The threads bottom out before the O-ring comes in contact with the mating surface. I went for a K&N 204 for now as that was what was readily available and have HIFLO 204 filters on the way. Seems the WIX filters are not offset enough when compared to oem or other fitting oil filters.

OEM WASHER:

No other than it's what Yamaha recommends.  Yes, if you follow Yamaha's recommendations to the letter.

I had my oil changed at the dealer yesterday for the break in service. They used a yamaha 5GH-13440-60-00 filter. From what I can tell this one one supersedes the old one. Anyone know the difference?

Hey guys, does the M1-110A oil filter has the same oil pressure relief valve than the stock filter? I worry motorcycle oil filters might be different in that regard, since they typically call for thicker oil. The valve might bypass the filter a lot sooner than a stock one. I typically stick with OEM filters, but liked the M1 is longer, but want to know about the other specs. Thx.

I found some info:

I you go to the WIX site, you can find the filter for the FZ-10 (51358).  WIX posts all the info for their filters, which is nice.  The 51358 has a bypass valve rating of 8 psi.  I then went to the amsoil site to look up their filter to see if they also post their info.  While they don't post the bypass valve rating, they list the WIX 51358 filter along with their own filter, which seems a little odd.  So it seems that the bypass valve rating for the FZ-10 should be closer to 8 psi, I'm guessing in the 8-11 psi range. 

Granted, this still doesn't tell us the bypass valve rating of the factory Yamaha filter, but seeing this info, I'd be more comfortable using a filter in the 8-11 range vs 11-17.


Edit-- Well, the above may not be a good indicator.  I just checked a couple of Royal Purple oil filters (10-2867 and 10-2876) on WIX's site, the filters that the WIX site cross-referenced to were 57356 and 51365, both of which show a bypass psi rating of  8-11.  When I talked to Royal Purple about their 10-2867 and 10-2876 filters, they said they are rated at 11-17 psi.  So it appears that the WIX filters may or may not be manufactured with the same bypass valve rating specs as the filters they cross-reference with.

I guess as long as the higher psi number of the lower psi rated filter overlaps with the lower number of the higher psi rated filter, maybe it's not that big of a deal.

The more motorcycle specific filters I look at on the WIX site, I see that they don't have a range, they just say 8, while most of the automotive filters have a range.

I don't quite follow why it wouldn't be an issue on cold start-up as well.  If an oil filter has a higher bypass psi rating than it should, this means the pressure would have to reach a higher psi before triggering the bypass valve.  If your motor is designed for a filter with a bypass valve pressure of 8 psi, and you install a filter with a bypass valve rating of 11-17, this means the bypass valve won't open until the pressure hits 11-17 psi, which is higher than spec.  So the unfiltered oil won't flow until the pressure reaches a higher psi than what the motor was designed for.  This is what would cause the oil starvation scenario.  I would assume this would be true as the filter gets clogged with contaminants (as you mentioned) as well as on cold start-up when the oil is thicker.  (I guess I could have qualified my statement by adding that the ambient air temperature would also be a factor)  In colder climates the oil would be more viscous on a cold start-up than in warmer climates which could make the bypass valve rating on your filter even more important.

Also, as I understand it, the range in the bypass pressure rating, for example, the 11-17 psi rating.  The lower number indicates when the bypass valve starts to open, and the higher number indicates when the valve will be fully open.  So, even if you have overlapping ranges, like say replacing a filter with a range of 8-11 with a filter that has a range of 11-17, when the motor is expecting full oil flow at 11 psi across the filter, the valve will just be starting to open, rather than being 100% open allowing full oil flow.

I realize the change in psi from 8 to 17 may, in reality, not take long enough to even matter.  But I like having good tangible data, even if it's for something that will probably never be an issue.  So this is just me thinking out loud through all the data I have gathered today on this subject.

For me, I think I'm just going to stick with motorcycle specific oil filters, or at least a filter with the correct bypass psi rating.  While I'd likely never have an issue, I'll just feel better knowing the filter is within spec.

I just contacted the manufacturer for Mobil 1 filters. Come to find out they make motorcycle filters as well. Part number for the MT10 filter is M1-MC134. It has a bypass pressure of 15psi. I asked about the M1-110 as well. It also has a bypass pressure of 15psi. I imagine the car filters will be cheaper.
