Bike is starting to Irritate me re oil filter backing out
#1
So, I've now had two oil filters vibrate loose while running the bike, and start dripping oil, while running, which gets all over the Yosh exhaust and the rear tireAngry....

This is Highly irritating, not to mention dangerous. I always do my own oil on all my bikes, and hand tighten the oil filters to ~the same tension. I've NEVER had one vibrate loose in thirty plus years before this CB, now I've had two within six months.

Yes, I checked there is not an extra gasket, and I did oil the gasket lightly before spinning it on.... Dang Gonna have to wire the fuggin thing.

Anyone else have this?
