Perf-form MC oil filters?

Do any of you know anything good or bad about Perf-form oil filters? It uses glass fiber instead of paper filter element, and claims to filter 4-22 micron range. Nominal filtering for a paper Wix is 24 micron. They have a Guzzi fitment...

I use them in all my bikes for the same reasons you are considering. Unfortunately, I have no empirical evidence supporting my choice. I have called and ordered direct from them. I get the impression they are a small company which can be both good and bad. I have been running these filters in my 2002 Ducati ST4s for 23K miles with Amsoil 20W 50 Synthetic and have not had issues with engine wear or oil consumption (admittedly, this is not high mileage). My 2003 MG LM has only about 6K miles so no long term use to report yet. Sorry I cannot offer more help.

My Spectro wholesaler used to handle them. I used / sold / installed them for several years. Never a fitment or quality problem.
