Easy oil change
i changed the oil using Motul 10w40 and oem filter(2418 miles). could not believe how easy it was. used a small filter wrench to loosen and tighten the filter. it took exactly 4 quarts to get to the middle of the sight glass. i do not know why the manual says take it to the dealer for something this simple, oh now i remember ......money.
did not have to remove any fairing pieces and the brocks pipe gave me enough room
the bike seems to like the fresh stuff. it is smooth and fast.

Motul 300V 10W-40 is great oil. I use Amsoil fully synthetic 10W-40 motorcycle oil and it is great too.
Oh BTW, it was really easy to change my oil too!!! lol.
