For what it's worth, the Purolator 14612 used to be shorter, more like 2.5". All of the short filters have gone away except the Mobil One M1-108 and most are now 2.9 to 3" which is longer than the oem filter's 2.625" and too long for some skid plates, Rumbux and apparently AltRider to name two.
I have a contact with a Denso distributor, but have not had any luck lining up a bulk purchase for the non-Yamaha version of the Denso part number on the Yamaha oem filter. I will try again and post if I can source any and pass on the info and possibly a case price discount. Failing that, I may try and find a distributor for the Mobil One filters and see what quantity they require for a discount.
