For this motorcycle model, it is recommended to use 10W-40 oil. To change the oil, first remove the right fairing by unscrewing all the screws securing it as shown in the video. Unscrew and clean the drain bolt, now exposed, with a 17mm socket, and collect the used oil in a container. Unscrew the oil filter, from which some lubricant will still flow, and screw in the new one. Close the drain hole and reattach the fairing. Finally, refill with the same amount of oil that drained from the upper hole. It is advisable to perform the oil change with the engine warm.
