Model: Bmw Gs 850
Part: Air filter

Use the appropriate spanner to remove the seat from its location. This is necessary because you will need to disassemble the top part of the tank by unscrewing the T25 Torx screws. Carefully extract this cover to avoid breaking the clips. At this point, simply remove the air filter box, which is very straightforward if it weren't for all the cables in the way. Once you manage to do this, remove the dirty filter and insert the new one, ensuring it is fitted in the same orientation. Refit the box and screw the upper tank cover back on.
