How to change the motor oil of a Yamaha FZ?

Model: Yamaha Fz S
Part: Engine oil

Video tutorial

To change the motor oil of a Yamaha FZ, it is important to make sure that the engine is slightly warm, allowing the oil to flow easily. After turning off the bike and stabilizing it, locate the oil drain plug underneath the engine.

Carefully unscrew the plug using a wrench and let all the old oil drain into a suitable container. Allow the oil to drain completely, this may take a few minutes.

Once the draining process is complete, securely screw back the engine plug to prevent any leaks. Next, locate the oil fill plug, which is usually on the side of the engine, and remove it. Using a funnel, slowly pour in the recommended new oil for the Yamaha FZ model, being careful not to exceed the level indicated in the owner's manual.

Check the level using the dipstick, ensuring it is correct. Once finished, close the plug, start the bike, and let the new oil circulate in the engine for a couple of minutes.
