This is a relatively simple operation. Using a ratchet spanner, remove the top pin as shown in the video, unscrewing it from underneath while holding it steady from the top. Next, remove the two bolts which require an 11mm spanner. After this, also remove the reserve pipe by inserting the seal into the frame. Remember to disconnect the fuel pipe from the carburettor as well; otherwise, it will be impossible to detach the tank. Finally, the fuel tank of the Vespa is free and can be pulled out.

How to Change the Engine Oil on a Triumph Tiger 900?

To change the engine oil on the Triumph Tiger 900, follow these steps. First, ensure the engine is warm but not too hot. Lift the motorcycle on a centre or side stand to make it stable. Locate the oil drain plug on the engine casing, usually positioned on the lower side of the engine. Place an oil collection container under the drain plug and unscrew the plug to allow the used oil to drain out. Once the oil has completely drained, remove and replace the oil filter. Be sure to lubricate the sealing ring of the new filter before installing it. Reinstall the oil drain plug and ensure it is tightly secured. Next, locate the oil filler cap on the engine and remove it. Fill the engine with new engine oil, using the oil recommended in the owner's manual. Check the oil level using the dipstick and add oil if necessary to reach the correct level. Finally, screw the oil filler cap back on, start the engine, and check for any oil leaks. Recheck the oil level and add oil if necessary. Once the procedure is complete, dispose of the used oil properly at an authorised recycling centre.
