Zitat von Oldbiker im Beitrag #5 The parts fiche shows the R1200 and R1250 take the same filter. Mahle OC 619 is the same filter sold by BMW. New bikes are shipped with a different filter so don't be surprised when the replacement looks different. BeemerBoneyard is a good place to buy them. https://www.beemerboneyard.com/114277217794pk.html https://www.beemerboneyard.com/11427721779wc.html 10% discount if you're a BMW MOA member. Lee |

Zitat von GT im Beitrag #7 Probably not a big deal but BMW recommends at the first service to change to the larger filter. Here's a 306. It has dimples instead of the flat spots. oc-306_1.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) The 619 will look like the 779 sold by dealers. P1030857.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) Lee |

I get this off Amazon (US). It fits the RS.

As the miles to the first service are much less I'd not use a filter designed for that shorter runtime for the longer interval thereafter. I guess it's possible that the smaller filter is designed to take out more particles during the run in period too. |

Zitat von Sanemancured im Beitrag #11 Some BMWs used the 306 type filter as the regular filter. The K1200S used the 306 but the K1300S used the 619 type. After the K1300S came out I think BMW started to recommend the 619 for the K1200S. I never considered using a 306 on my RS because my filter wrench I've used since 1988 fits the 619 :) Lee |
