Change the oil but not the filter? The manual for my Suzuki SV650 motorcycle recomended this because the filter supposedly becomes
more effective as it gets dirty and the filter holds back even smaller particles
as it gets filled with misc crud. If I were to do this I would definetely remove the old filter and drain the dirty oil before I re-installed it. Besides, Honda
stands to lose oil filter sales with this advice, so why would they do it if it was bad? Not sure yet what I am going to do when the time comes however.
