Davsato, I needed a few bits, air filter, sump plug, spark plug, rear brake pads so I also ordered the champion oil filter too from wemoto. They all arrived the next day.
I did get the oil from Halfords, had no idea they catered for motorcycles as I am new to them having had a car for the last 25 years. I avoid them wherever possible and use the Ford spares shop.
Leigh, thanks for going to the garage to check the part number.
Googling it brings up a picture of a silmiar looking filter as the champion with the protruding tube. So that wont fit my bike.
I did have a good look and are is no old filter parts left in the bike.
So either the oil filter was bought like that or they modified it to fit.
Anyway thanks for your help, I will sort it out by emailing a couple of spares companies and see if they have come across this problem before.
