Which oilfilter should one go for?

Looking at Wemoto, so is the HiFlo or the Champion preferred? Or should one go for an original Honda item.

Kind regards, Lasse

I have only ever used the Hein Gericke ones, so whatever brand they sell is the ones I use.

I've just bought a proper honda one off Rick, i would think it's the best one to go for.

in england i have a local dealer so use OEM honda.
however when liveing in Ireland the local (40 miles away!!) bike shop only did hi-flo so i used them twice of three time. i have no brand loyalty at all though

OEM Honda filter! Every time.
I have seen too many trashed engines caused by the usage of NoName or low quality filters.
