Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to find an oil filter online for my 2020 UForce 800.  Does anyone have any recommendations on aftermarket brands?  I'm finding it hard to find a reference for one, It would appear that all 500 to 800 UForce and CForce have the same filters. Is that correct?  Also I finding filters for 2013 to 2019.  Does anyone know if there is a change with the oil filter on the 2020 engine?  Thanks

Many use aftermarket filters for the Rotax 800 and I believe they are all 152s suck as the K&N, Wix,HiFlo but you and everyone should know that CFM did make a slight change in nipple size to avoid patent issues and make people buy their own. Although they do work they do not create the correct seal between the rubber grommet and filter case which can lead to some leakage or filter bypassing when or if the filter started to be restrictive. But..with that said no one has reported any issues...at least that they know of. I did some measuring a few years ago when I was looking are the Mr. RPM spin-on adaptor which was made for the Rotax 800. Oh..it works by the way using the CFM filter's rubber. Here's those measurements.. if anyone is interested.

Thanks I was looking for that info. I was looking for cross reference filter for the 2021 Cforce 1000 EPS and the closest thing I could find was the KN-152. I'll give it a try.
