Replacing the Air Filter on a BMW Gs

Model: Bmw Gs1250
Part: Air filter

Video tutorial

Let’s see how to replace the air filter that supplies the engine of the BMW Gs 1250. Place the bike on the centre stand, remove the two parts of the seat, unscrew the five screws securing the central tank cover, along with the two located inside the small storage compartment above the fuel cap. The filter box cover is located just above the cap; unscrew the four screws securing it and remove them with a magnetic bit.
