From Yamaha's on line parts catalog: 2007 R1: 5GH-13440-20-00 ELEMENT ASSY, OIL CLEANER 2006 R1: 5GH-13440-00-00 ELEMENT ASSY, OIL CLEANER 2005 R1: 5GH-13440-00-00 ELEMENT ASSY, OIL CLEANER 2004 R1: 5GH-13440-00-00 ELEMENT ASSY, OIL CLEANER So it looks like there is some difference with the 2007 model. However, my dealer sold me 2 of the older ones so I'll let you know if I have any trouble. (For that matter, maybe you can tell me if YOU have any trouble!)

The 2007 is a little smaller than previous.Thread size and pitch are the same as previous filters. Last change i did i used the older larger 5gh-13440-00-00. It does not make a scrap of difference.

You are correct. The 07 R1 takes the KN-204 while previous versions took the KN-303.
