1) Extremely easy to do.
2) Based on the struggle required to remove the second drain plug, it is doubtful that the dealer EVER removed this.
3) After you think all of the old oil is out, tilt the bike (carefully) over a bit to the left side and a significant amount of oil will continue to drain out.
4) Pre-fill the oil filter. I filled it almost twice before it was nicely soaked through.
Looks like the weep hole gasket is starting to go... again!
I had this replaced previously (outside of the warranty :mad: ), before the gasket in the new material was available. Anyone have the part number for the new, improved gasket?
