I have to agree that the Fram filters are of lesser quality. I own a motorcycle repair shop and have had 6 engines spin rod bearings due to the Fram oil filter collapsing internally. I understand that we are not turning our motors 12,000 rpm or more like these motorcycles but if you plan on bypassing the governor I would personally use a different filter. The real life of these engines is maintenance and regular oil and filter changes. Just my experience and opinion.
