Oil specs for R1100S

Post by slparry »

Just to pass on info :)

BMW's official recommendation for oil for the 11S is

"SAE 15W-50, API SJ / JASO MA2, Additives (e.g. molybdenum-based) are not permissible because they can attack coated components of the engine, BMW Motorrad recommends BMW Motorrad ADVANTEC Pro oil.

83 12 2 405 891"

Yes, but how much do you need in each tyre?

:wink:
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
