Have you used that? The HD wrench is specifically cut out to avoid damaging the crank position sensor. When I used my strap wrench on mine I had to be very careful of the alignment.

Just a caveat.

I 've been using this about 2 years. I use this with extension and the ratchet. works fine. (and cheep)

I got the same issue with that pesky stator plug in the way. I could always go to a shorter filter I guess...........

My solution to this was to grind away one section of the lip on the edge of the tool so it slides nicely past the stator plug without damaging it.

Yabbutt, then where you going to find short toilet paper rolls to fit the housing?

I have seen a really tight filter, like tight enough to crush the filter with a wrench and not get it off. defeat those hex-hat filter wrenches.
Even if the filter crushes, this one is going to get it off, and it's relieved on the sides for crank position plug.

Must be a factory tool.

FWIW Harley has a relieved oil filter removal tool for something like $15.

Ok I have a picture. This is a 05 road king. The sensor is short. I saw some sensors on some models are longer. So I have to take it back, it is good for road king and DX with stock filter.
I think it is a good idea to grind it to fit. It is only $5.

That wix filter dose not fit the cap.

Sorry I can not upload the pic.

Not. Not cheesy sheet metal either, and priced lower.
