Changing Engine Oil
#3
Think you'll find it says 2.5 litres, or around 2.7 litres if you change the oil filter as well.


Empty old oil then put sump plug in.
Do not overtighten it, there really is no need to.


With bike on centre stand on level ground you can start by putting in exactly 2.5 litres.


Then start the bike and let it run for a minute.


Switch off the engine, then keep your eye on the window on the bottom right of the sump.


Wait for the oil to settle for a couple of minutes and that will be your level.


On the casing next to the window there is a lower and upper level marking, you want it about two thirds up between the markings.


If you need to add more add a tiny bit at a time and repeat the above process until you get it where you want it.


Try not to overfill it though or it can cause other issues.


More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
