  • Every 6000 miles the oil and filter needs changing on the BMW S1000R.
    Here's how i go about doing it. Remember i am no trained mechanic and if you choose to do the job based on this video than thats at your own risk.
    All information can be found in the haynes manual for the BMW S1000R
    www.ebay.co.uk...
    Few things to note are the correct oil type - 5W/40
    oil filter and removal tool - www.ebay.co.uk...
    sump washers - www.ebay.co.uk...
    Torque settings - sump plug - 28NM
    oil filter - 11NM
    Remember to dispose of your used oil correctly, phone your local council to see if then can advise you for a local disposal centre.
    Thanks for watching!!!!!!

    TOP TIP: To avoid the mess on the pipes, cover them in aluminum foil first, and shape a pathway in the foil down towards the drain pan. No mess!

    Well done, Wats. I've got the same bike and need to tackle the job soon. Thanks for the nice walk-through.

    Good tutorial video, funny how BM put the sight glass on the other side.

      Jim Diesel thanks! I think it’s better than a tiny dipstick though. 👍

    Great vid Wats. Is there any particular oil that you'd recommend? I'm assuming you use the premium types, also what make & type are the hand guards ? Thanks.

    • @Wats1984
      @Wats1984  4 года назад +1

      Cheers! I personally don't recommend oil as its like tyres in my opinion. Everyone has there own particular brand they like and trust. Just make sure its the correct type is my main advice.
      The hand guards are from powerbronze. This link below will take to the ebay page for the same ones.

    Hey hello!! what type of torque wrench are you using? I'm trying to find one on amazon and the minimum torque that I found is at 10 ft/lb and that translate to 13.5 NM
