This guide describes how to replace the engine oil and oil filter on an Aprilia Dorsoduro 750. Obtain 4 litres of Motul 5100 SAE 15W50 oil and an HIFLO HF565 oil filter. Position the motorcycle on the rear stand. Start the engine, allow it to reach temperature, and then switch off. Place a container for the used oil underneath the engine. Use a ratchet and a 17 mm socket to remove the oil drain plug located under the engine. Allow the oil to drain and clean the plug thoroughly. Use an oil filter wrench to remove the oil filter located at the bottom of the engine, front side. Screw in the new filter by hand, then tighten it a turn with the wrench. Refit the oil drain plug. Open the oil filler cap located on the right side of the crankcase. Pour in the oil, referencing the inspection hole at the bottom of the crankcase. Start the engine for one minute and switch off. Check the oil level again.
