Which is available on Amazon.
The K1300S has two air filters and BMW recommends changing every 24,000 miles.
It didn't take long to get at the filters so I blew them out at 12,000 and changed at 24,000 miles.
And the K1200GT/K1300GT have ONE of those filters. I blow them out at 6k and replace at 12k, but in adverse conditions (like riding through bad bug infestations) I’ve had to replace them at 6k. It DOES make a difference in how the bike runs.

Here's a thought for those of you who abhor the price of air filters or frequently ride through areas of "high bug/air ratios".
Take some black fibreglass screening material you might use to repair a screen door, cut it to size, wrap it around the air inlet on your motorcycle and secure it with a zip tie. I got mine from http://www.rcrint.com/easyscreen_en.htm
I did this on my R1100S and on my K1200S with no ill effects except that my filters stay much cleaner than previous experience shows. Sorry, no before/after pictures - you're just gonna have to trust me on this.

Oil filter information.
Anyone ever hear of K&N Air Filters? That's what I'm going to put in after another 15k miles or so on the stock one. Then I'll probably sell the bike before I look at the air filter again.

That is actually a great solution to keep mice from going into the tunnel to get to your filter for nesting.
