RE: How do you remove the oil filter on your CTD?
I use one like this. I change my filter from above with the ziplock bag trick. I still haven't tried that grease on the o-ring instead of oil Jake. I almost tried it last time, but I chickened out. Something about it makes me nervous. I feel like the grease is going to burn the filler on or something. I'm weird.
Someone else here uses this type.
Smoeday maybe I'll give it a try. It looks pretty cool.

Do some guys put grease on the oil filter gasket? Is that supposed to be better than motor oil?

I dont remember who posted the ziplock bag trick but I know I learned it off this site. I have been changing my own oil since I got my first ride at the age of 16 and this is by far the best trick ever.
