What gorilla installs the oil filters on the CB1100s at the factory. I've probably changed 50 or more screw on filters on bikes over the past 30+ years, and NEVER have I seen one that won't come off with the proper filter socket.
The filter is on so tightly, that even a tight fitting wrench/socket attempted to strip off the flats on the factory installed filter.
Here's the dumb question ...... Honda doesn't possibly use right hand threads on their filters, do they?
I'd hate to have to take the bike to a dealer and have them remove the oil filter. But it won't budge.
