R1200RS 2018 Final Drive Questions

[skol1100]

Attempting to verify the amount of oil (180ml?) for a final drive change on a 2018 R1200RS.

Also attempting to verify the torque values (20Nm?) for both the drain bolt and fill bolt.

Welcome to the forum.
Your quantity and torque figures are correct.

Thank you Lee!

Thanks for the verification of the quantity and torque values.

Don’t forget to remove fill plug first(you would hate to remove drain plug and not be able to remove fill plug)
You may also consider DIMPLE DRAIN PLUGS, stronger magnet, I have them both for final drive and crankcase

One thing that has tripped up a few owners with the big hole final drive is the fill plug takes a Allen wrench but the drain takes a Torx.

Allen wench for fill and torx for the drain.

Yes, allen wrench for the fill (removed first) and torx for the drain. Thanks Jim and Lee!
