Premium performance for your BMW and powersport bikes

The K&N KN-160 motorcycle oil filter is engineered to work with synthetic, conventional, and blended oils—even high-concentration synthetic racing oils. A welded 17mm nut on the canister supports fast, tool-friendly removal in busy service bays or along long rides. The heavy-duty canister is built to endure demanding temperatures and vibration, helping you stay on the road with confidence.

Engineered for robust filtration, this filter uses a synthetic-blend media designed to scrub away a wide range of contaminants while maintaining a steady flow of clean oil to your engine. Laboratory testing confirms strong capacity and burst strength, so you can ride with the knowledge that the filter is designed to perform under pressure and extreme riding conditions.

The filter’s versatility extends to oil types, as it is designed to operate with synthetic, conventional, and blended oils without compromising filtration efficiency.

In real-world riding, this means you may experience a dependable oil supply, even during spirited canyon rides or long highway stints.
