How to change the engine oil on a Yamaha XTZ 125?

Model: Yamaha Xtz 125
Part: Engine oil

Video tutorial

To change the engine oil on a Yamaha XTZ 125, start by lifting the bike using a stand or a stable platform. Place a container under the engine to collect the used oil. Identify the oil drain plug, usually located at the bottom of the engine, and unscrew it with an appropriate spanner.

Allow the used oil to fully drain into the container. Once the flow has stopped, refit the drain plug and tighten it carefully.

Then, locate the oil filler cap, usually situated on the top of the engine. Remove it and use a funnel to pour in the new engine oil in the quantity specified by the manual.

After filling the oil, refit the filler cap and ensure it is securely fastened. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes to ensure the oil reaches all parts of the engine.

Turn off the engine and check for any oil leaks around the drain plug and filler cap. Finally, dispose of the used oil and filters according to local regulations. This process helps maintain the engine in optimal condition and prolongs its life.
