What oil filter do you use?

Just wondered if there were any better choices for oil filters than OEM? What do you all use, and why'd you choose that one?

Thanks,

Oh, I'm not trying to save money, I'm looking for the best...a few years ago I read something where the OEM filters were just so-so, and that there were aftermarket filters that filtered out considerably smaller particles and flowed better, longer. I've also heard other stuff about OEM filters too, but not to start a controversy, just thought I'd see what others were using...thanks for the heads up though. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":b">

Thanks,

This is in no way about saving money---oil and filters are cheap compared to conrod bearings etc. but I've been a little distrustful (read paranoid <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"> ) about OEM filters for some time after some stuff I've heard---and let's face it---it isn't *exactly* in their best interest to keep your "old" bike on the road for TOO long heheh.

Thanks,
