In reply to Christian. Hi Christian, HiFlow filters do one (HF303RC) as do Champion (-32454-204N), and there is a K&N one (KN-303C). Oil, it really doesn't matter, I ran 10/40 Shell Ultra by then and it was fine, shifting smoothly and no overheating. Good luck!

Hi, Jeff thank you for the info, it’s incredibly difficult to find information about the Leoncino 500 would please recommend what brand or type of filter can we use if we are not able to get our hands on the manufacturer’s oil filter.

Also, how do you know which viscosity to use? is the 10w50 the best option for a Leoncino with 7,000km?

Thanks a lot man.

Hi Jeff,
Would like to know how much engine oil did you use to fill the Leoncino 500?
Is it 3L or 4L? Because i saw you are using 4L engine oil.

Pls advise. Thanks.
