Where to get oil filter?

[LDANNY]

Is there any where to get an oil filter for my 749? (besides going to the dealers)

[JCPakBikes]

I like K&N and get it on FleaBay or other online stores...shop around
I buy 4 to 6 at a time and use it for oil changes on Customers Bikes
# is KN-153

yes just goto the K&N website and order you a couple of the KN153 filter. Its a pretty nice filter. I'd say as nice or nicer than the Ducati brand filters. The best part is that it has a removal nut on the bottom so you can take it off with a rachet. I believe its free shipping iirc.

KN-153 You can also get them at most auto parts stores, they may not stock them but they can have them a day or so and no shipping charges. Get 2 while your there

Or hey, here's an idea: Maybe support your local motorcycle shop.

If people keep buying their shit online, the only brick and mortar stores left will be the dealerships. You think they overcharge for parts and service now, wait until you've run all the independents out of town!

Well maybe its because the closest shop is over 100 miles away and I don't have the time or resources to pay them a visit everytime I need an oil filter. Ever think of that? I would buy from the dealer and get them to ship it to me if only they didn't need ten dollars just to ship it to me They overcharge us not because they have to but, because they can.

oh and I do still make the long hike up to the dealer for certain things, but there's no way I'm going that far everytime I need something like an oil filter.

Well...

The original poster lives in SoCal, according to his profile, so I don't imagine that's a problem for him, and I'm guessing the majority of motorcycle riders live closer to a major metro area than 100 miles.

If you really do live out in the sticks, then I think the internet is a great resource. But as for Milledgeville, GA, what about Rhino Powersports? Can't they get you K&N filters and other commonly needed parts?

Where did Aaron Yates get all his parts when he was coming up? There wasn't an internet when he was young!

That's funny, my local dealer told me I could by oil and filters elsewhere and save some cash, just come back when I really needed his help.
Imagine that?

Sorry man I guess I just misread your post. You were suggesting to use the local bike shops. I thought you were suggesting to always visit the Ducati dealerships for parts. As for Aaron, I actually know the guy fairly well. We used to ride at the same local motocross track. He always recognizes me when I run into him around town. The guy's actually fast as hell on a dirt bike too I guess if your good on two wheels then you're just good on two wheels!
