Devo83 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Can anyone confirm that this filter fits a 3rd gen VFR750F? I have read lots of great things about them, just want to confirm they fit for sure before driving this weekend to get some. They are actually a car filter but I have read that they fit the VFR. Thanks in advance! Devon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devo83 Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 Yes I have seen that. Specifically curious if anyone has had fitment issues with the 14610 on a 3rd gen as it is a bit longer than the 14612. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer airwalk Posted May 3, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted May 3, 2017 More tedious maneuvering behind headers, consequently slightly harder to remove& install. Used lots of them on my 4th gen( same as 3rd, filter-wise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer WIN6 Posted May 4, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted May 4, 2017 Confirmed your plans yet? I was looking at some of the reviews on these on Amazon and on the CalSci site and it looks like they were redesigned recently and may not work?

It looks like there was a redesign and the new convex design apparently bottoms out before sealing properly. I am going to call and ask about the filters I had put aside before driving out to get them. Has anyone tried using using a newer convex style on a 3rd gen with success or failure?

Member Contributer WIN6 Posted May 16, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted May 16, 2017 I got the PBL14612 on no problem (and no leaks) so, I /think/ the newer style seems okay? I'm not 100% sure about the difference though. . . The first picture is definitely what the one I installed looks like, and I think the second picture (with the logo and different views) is the 'old style' ?

Devo83 Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 Second one is the new style. Glad it all worked out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
