I use the Hiflo HF551 ones on my 1200 Sport

The thread and diameter of the seal should be the same but filter casing size will vary.

i am going to service my breva 1100 2005 oil change.
i have 2 oil filters
1, came from gutsibits Mahle OC21
2, hiflo HF551 this came with the 10/60 oil from a reputable supplier.

Some stuff is expensive there but yes I get moly from them and 30 yrs ago bought a socket set it has served well some while ago I actually broke a 17mm socket took it back they swapped it without any quibble or hassle ...That is a heck of a guarantee. A couple of yrs ago I won a set of Halfords ratchet spanners have to say they are very good So they have their uses.

Well, they do sell handy tubes of Moly, which I have trouble finding elsewhere. So there's that.

And I've not had much luck finding anything useful in Halfords in recent years here in the UK either. Totally pointless shop unless you want them to fit a bulb or windscreen wiper for you. They still have tax disc holders though.

I use Hiflo filters on all my bikes. They do the job and are available at Halfords along with the cap wrench tool to remove them. What's not to like ? 😀
