Oil change on 2007 RSV - what filter, other parts and what oil?

Hi

I need to do a bit of a home service on the old girl before I head off to Austria next month. Only doing an oil change and general check of pads etc. Not done an oil change on the RSV before, and talking to a useless dealer on Saturday, I found that there are 2 sizes of oil filter.

As this is an 2007 model, is there a correlation between the model year and size of filter? Or is it a random thing?

Also, can you please advise what other parts I need to think about (any seals or anything like that) before I start stripping her down?

I guess that semi-synthetic is the best oil as I understand that fully synthetic are not recommended?

Thanks for help.
 
Your bike will have the longer of the filters, I can do you 4L of Motul 5100 15-50 semi synth for £29 delivered inc filter, pm me if you are interested and I will sort it out.

Cheers
Mark
