Re: [St] Triumph Oil Filter Wrench

OK, one more reason to continue to ignore my local shop, it certainly would be nice to communicate those things...I am grateful for my local NAPA auto parts shop having a wrench that fit. This sizing clearly must have changed in the last year. 
   
  Thanks, 
  Todd

  Triumph did?change the size of their oil filters. I'm not sure what happened to the 99 - 04 series but when I bought my 05 ST, the parts manager, knowing that I do my own regular oil changes, mentioned that I would need a new filter tool. They sold me their workshop one when I originally picked up the bike. Only a few bucks, but annoying all the same.

Anyone else notice that the Triumph Filter wrench doesnt fit the OEM filters for 
the 01s any more? (Yes, I am using OEM filters...) Did my local shop once again 
convince me why I either drive 90+mi to the next nearest shop or ship from my 
old shop 750mi away?! Or could I be overreacting...;-D

The wrench fit the old filter perfectly, but was slightly too small to fit the 
current filter.
