BMW parts costs !!!

Where can I buy oil filters for a R-1150 Boxer engine?

The CM dealer wants 850B for an oil filter and while TIT it is too expensive since Bosch 3330 (Champion) filters sell for 6-8 USD

You can try FastCorner in BKK or Parntip Plaza in CM for K&N.
These K&N filters are actually made in Thailand but for export only & then have to be reimported.
You said it - TIT!
Expect to pay about 650bht.
I am told Thais in the trade pay 550bht.

Both myself and a pal of mine had R1150RTs a few years ago and I recall using the oil filter intended for the 3 series BMW car engine. It was a tiny bit longer than the bike one but fitted fine and cost around 500 baht in Chonburi at the time.
