Recently in one of my many magazines, I seen that some one had an oil filter relocation kit for Harleys. Now I can't seem to find that article or advertisement. Does anyone know anything about it?
Any one with a twin cam ultra knows the mess that can come from a simple oil change.
Thanks

Instead of going through the hassle of relocating your filter you can take a thin piece of cardboard or somthing similar tuck it under the oil filter{ make sure it's long enough},loosen the oil filter and drain the oil. After the oil has drained take a plastic Baggy put it around the filter then loosen the filter the rest of the way, the baggy will catch the filter and any excess oil.

That or get one of the draining boards they make for specific applications. J&P and Kirk. Both sell them for under $20 and they're a lot less hassle than cutting cardboard, or my favorite until I got one - cutting up a plastic milk jug. The baggie's a great idea!
