OEM Oil Filter Wrench Size

[Hurley Byrd]

Does anyone know for sure what size oil filter wrench fits the OEM 5GH-13440-71-00 oil filter?  It appears there are 65mm, 67mm, etc, etc, etc......   2005 RSV

 

Thanks,
Pete

I'm not 100% sure, to be honest, I normally use Chanel Locks also.  I think though, and I may be wrong, but I THINK the stock filter takes a 68mm.

It's about that big, but then again maybe it's a bit smaller. If that don't fit, try a bigger one.

See how helpful we are?

I have a 65 mm and I just tried it on the filter p/n you specified and it fit perfectly. I have used other brands of filters and it never fit on them. I used the channel locks on those!

I use one of this type and it’s probably a little more heavy duty

I don’t even remember buying this but it’s been my go to for at least the last 15 years.  Worked every time on every vehicle.

Thank You Pastor Curt,

 

Yep. 65 mil it is.  Nice little tool... especially if you are a torque freak. LOL
