I doubt if it would be more than a few ounces.

I used to do this all the time on my Talon. The only teo things that mattered was if the o-ring on the filter still came in contact with the flat area on the engine and if the threads were the same.

Thanks, I`ve been using the 104 with redline 5w-20, next time I order I`ll switch over to the 105. That`s one of the reasons I like this forum. To stay a head!

Lightbulb Ahh, Very Interesting...

I see, I see... Well, I'm switching over to Amsoil 0W-30 soon like today or tomorrow...

I just bought 2 m104's ...

What is the bypass filter for on the 105? Why did they not put it on the 104?

If the 105 fits i'll just exchange my 104's...

Thanks for the Research.
