    Which one? The 2KRs and the 3LN1 have an internal filter; the 3LN3+ have an external spin-in filter.

    I've got a 1988 fzr250 (2kr) & need some advise re correct oil filter.
    On the K&N website they list a
    KN-144 part number for the 1988 fzr400 genesis. Is this suitable for my bike - as I've heard the 250 & 400 are very close cousins.
    Doesn't have to be a K&N - just any type easily sourced.
    Cheers!

    The 400s and 250s used a different internal filter; the 400 used 1L9-13441-11, while the 250 used 4X7-13440-90.

    See this site for a list of bikes that used the same filter as the 250:

    Oh, and I deleted your other oil filter post - the "maintenance" section you posted in is for FORUM (website) maintenance, not motorcycle maintenance! <!-- s:alcoholic: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_all_coholic.gif" alt=":alcoholic:" title="Alcoholic" /><!-- s:alcoholic: --> <!-- s:roll: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_roll.gif" alt=":roll:" title="Rolling LoL" /><!-- s:roll: -->

    Thanks Dave - keep up the good work. It seems a lot of FZR owners would be struggling without your help!!

    A lot of thanks should also go to dontz125 and Trev084 as well. I don't always get the time or have all the answers...
