Engine Oil and Filter Change
Change the engine oil and oil filter
at the scheduled times. The
engine should always be warm
when the oil is changed so the oil
will drain easily. The procedure is
as follows:
1. Place the motorcycle on the
side stand.
2. Remove the oil filler cap 1.
3. Remove the drain plug 2 and
gasket 3 from the bottom of
the engine and drain the
engine oil into a drain pan.
NOTE: Recycle or properly dis-
pose of used oil.
CAUTION
Hot engine oil and exhaust
pipes can burn you.
Wait until the engine oil drain
plug and exhaust pipes cool
before draining oil.
WARNING
Children and pets may be
harmed by swallowing new or
used oil. Repeated, prolonged
contact with used engine oil
may cause skin cancer. Brief
contact with oil may irritate
skin.
Keep new and used oil and
used oil filters away from chil-
dren and pets. To minimize
your exposure to used oil, wear
a long-sleeve shirt and mois-
ture-proof gloves (such as
dishwashing gloves) when
changing oil. If oil contacts
your skin, wash thoroughly
with soap and water. Launder
any clothing or rags if wet with
oil. Recycle or properly dis-
pose of used oil and filters.
