If you have already covered enough miles and are about to change the oil, you are in the right place. In this brief guide, I will explain how to do it quickly. Remove the lower fairing by undoing the safety clips. Ensure the engine is not too hot. Position a container under the bike and undo the plug under the oil sump. Be careful when removing the bolt as oil will flow out abundantly. Remove the oil filter located behind the sump and keep the bike upright to drain as much as possible. Fit the new filter and the plug. Now you can top up with new oil.
