This is an interesting FortNine video. He reviews, paper, steel and fiberglass oil filter designs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rgi9B8BKUE

You will be happy to know that the motorcycle manufacturers appear to know what they are doing when it come to filtering oil.

I recall something similar years ago, but for car/truck filters. In those tests, the old-school WIX and Hastings brands (felt core, IIRC) performed just as well as race technology filters.

The interesting thing Ryan didn't observe/discuss/mention about his DOUCHE facility was those bubbles traveling thru the tubing. They get really interesting on the downstream side of the hydro-static bearing.
