Changing Gear Oil on a V11 MOTO GUZZI

Model: Moto Guzzi V11
Part: Transmission

Video tutorial

It is recommended to use an 85w140 lubricant. The drain plug is located near the engine oil reservoir.

With the motorcycle on its stand, unscrew it (using a 17mm socket or spanner). The fill plug is covered by a rubber cap. Remove this as well (using a 10mm spanner) to allow air passage for the quick drainage of the old lubricant.

Let all the oil drain into a container. Once done, replace the drain plug, tightening it properly, measure out 850 cc of oil, and insert it through the upper hole.

Replace the fill plug and cover it with its rubber cap.
