SHOP OIL PUMPS & LUBRICATION PARTS

Oil pressure keeps your engine alive. We stock genuine OEM lubrication parts, including the oil filter spring used on many Kawasaki models such as the GPZ900R, ZZR1100, Concours, Ninja 250R and ZRX1100. These small components are easy to lose or damage during an oil change, and the wrong part can stop the filter seating properly.

Most of these parts get disturbed during a routine oil change, so it pays to stick to the right intervals. Our article on log book servicing explains what a proper service should include. Grab a fresh drain plug washer or filter cover O-ring from our gaskets & seals while you're at it, or browse the full range of engine & engine parts.

FAQ – Oil Pumps & Lubrication Parts

What does the oil filter spring do?

On many Kawasaki engines, the spring sits behind the oil filter and holds it firmly against its seat. If it's missing or weak, oil can bypass the filter and go through the engine unfiltered.

What are the signs of an oil pump problem?

An oil pressure warning light that stays on or flickers, unusual top-end noise, or overheating can all point to low oil pressure. Stop riding and check the oil level and pressure before further damage occurs.

How often should I change my motorcycle oil and filter?

Follow the interval in your owner's manual, which is often every 6,000 to 12,000 km or once a year. Short trips, hot weather and hard riding can mean it's worth changing sooner.

Should I replace the O-rings when changing the oil filter?

Yes. Fit new O-rings or sealing washers wherever the manual specifies, especially on the filter cover and drain plug, to avoid leaks.
