Part: Engine oil

To replace the engine oil of the BMW R 1200 GS, loosen the bolts securing the engine guard located at the bottom of the bike. Once this guard is removed, unscrew the drain plug underneath so that the used oil can be collected in a suitably positioned container. Next to the drain plug, you will find the oil filter, which should also be removed and replaced with a new one. After replacement, top up the oil through the designated breather on the left side of the bike.
