## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the fit a 2012 sportster seventy-two xl1200v?**
A: I think it will but not totally sure.

**Q: does it fit a 2005 883 sportster**
A: It fit my 2006 Sportster 1200 and Harley doesn't change things very often so I would be surprised if it did not fit a 2005. Also I just checked the list of motorcycles it fits and yours is on it.

**Q: this filter is good for Dyna Super Glide Custom 2013?**
A: Yes it is.

**Q: Can I use Synthetic Oil with this filter?**
A: Yes. I have used synthetic oil for at least 15 years now & have used the K&N filter with it. Have had no problems.
