    Hey all, i am the new owner of an 83 xj650lk/seca turbo. The only issue the bike has is the oil filter casing leaks oil. I had read that there is a mod to put on modern filters. Where can i buy this mod at?

    Thanks

    Welcome to the site !!

    XJ4EVER has the spin-on adapter kit.
    If you just need an "O" ring, you could buy a FRAM filter that comes with 2 o rings at the auto parts store.

    XJ4ever.com (Len)....top of page right corner and in the "supporting vendor" forum

    The spin on filter kit is a good upgrade. Buy the filter with the hex plug welded on to make it easy to swap.
    It just so happens to be the same filter as my two cars so now my generator, two cars and motorcycle all take the same filter.
    I should check and see if it fits the lawn tractor!
