Hi, its time to get the falco back on the road. I am about to change the oil and filter. Got a K&N oil filter but there was no oil seal in the box, K&N tell me that it may not be supplied, bought from other dealer as K&N out of stock, anyway how often can you re use the oil seal or where do I get a new one?

I'm on my 4th oil change without changing the 'o'ring on the cover,
If' yours has been parked up for a while, the seal may have gone brittle, some BMW, KTM, Ducatti items fit.
Its all in here somewhere

Hi picked up new oil ring from BM oxford £2.50, just need to fit when new filter and oil arrives.

Curiously, Just bought a tuono to keep the Falco company. External Oil filter caps identical and yet the Tuono has a long filter and the falco a short KN-152
Needless to say I bought the wrong filter for the tuono and had to re-order a hi-flow long filter.
