Union Sangyo Oil Filters?
Anyone have any experience with these? They are definitely cheaper than OEM Yamaha oil filters, just wondering if they are any good? Many dealers on eBay selling them. TIA

No, I can't imagine they would be too bad as oil filters aren't that complicated to mass produce. I would recommend Yamaha OEM though just because they are made for the machine. Even better would be stainless steel filters since they are reusable.

There is such a thing as a cheap oil filter. While I can't say I've heard of this brand, I would look at where these are being shipped from. If they're from china, I'd stay away from them.

They are just filters made out of stainless steel mesh. You can just wash them out and use them again. I got some for my raptor.
Here is a pic of it compared to paper.
