-Article by rocketmangb of the XLFORUM ((http://​xlforum.net/​forums/showthread.php?​t=2064599&​highlight=oil+filter)) \\+Article by rocketmangb of the XLFORUM ((https://www.xlforum.net/​forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/​lubrication-and-lubricants/​192740-hd-super-premium-5-vs-napa-7148-5-micron-oil-filter?​t=2064599&​highlight=oil+filter)) ​\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Both filters have a top bypass. \\ 
 +This means that if the filter does bypass, oil runs across the top of the filter. \\ 
 +Unlike the old filters which had a bottom bypass (many still do). \\ 
 +A filter with a bottom bypass will wash the crap out of the media right in to the engine. \\ 
 +Both have synthetic media. \\ 
 +The HD filter uses a leaf spring to keep tension on the internals and keep them in place. \\ 
 +The Napa filter uses a coil spring. ​\\
