I'm also a new Bueller (Buellee?) Just bought an '05 XB12Scg, and of course wanted to do an oil change. Bought a filter at the local Harley shop (HD63731-99A) and a spare on line (KN 171B). When I tried to change oil I discovered both were too big! Both in width and height. The old filter is 2 1/2 inches wide and 3 inches tall. Anybody got a good part number/source? Is there something wierd about my bike?

That part number is the wrong filter, my guess off hand is that it belongs to a Sportster or an old tube framed Buell. The part number you want is 63806-00Y

The most important factors are the filtering material and filtration area, which will vary with each brand.

Also some of the filters listed above are car oil filters, not designed for motorcycles. The XB uses a low pressure oiling system and if you put a car filter on there, the filter might be bypassed.
