Thanks for the offer, Opus 

Maybe the K&N filter with its hex head is not such a bad idea. No special filter wrench needed. Just use a 17mm wrench.

Using Open Office makes it incredibly easy to save something as a PDF file. Like I said earllier, I want to see about finding a local source for a crush washer and O ring also. On top of that, I have a BMW part number that I understand is for an automobile but will fit the brick. I need to check that out too.

Any ideas of what else you would like to see on the list?

Depends on how far you want to go with it. I would keep it centered on Oil Filters and parts related to them. Tools & Any tricks also.
I know we started with the K100's but I guess it could include other K & maybe R bikes as the information comes in.
Maybe make it a group effort and start a thread that asks what others have used and get them to give part #'s and other information.

I use M.S. Office and have a Print to PDF app. that works well.
I guess it depends on how far you want to go. K's are world wide so the sky is the limit. But I suggest we keep it real for now.

What is the outside diameter of the oil filter so it can fit in the hole of the sump?

For BMW and Bosch oil filters: 76mm, 14 flutes.
Once I had a Collie pup. Dug a hole and covered him up. Now I sit there by the hour. Waiting for a Collie-flower.
