Re: Change Your Oil

Do you remember an approx. cost ?
Do you have the high or low note?

Re: Change Your Oil (hey jonathan.)

No really it ISN'T.
Everything works quite good leaned over on the side stand and the filter even drains better that way (but it still is MESSY when you open the cover).

Re: Not Snippy at All!

Slack is slack. If it didn't feel like slack, then it isn't and needs to be adjusted. I would do that first BEFORE you try to lube the cable (which is NOT as easy as you might think).

Re: Lower Oil Results: WORSE!

What year is your bike? You REALLY need an owner's manual. I think someone has posted a link somewhere on here to an online copy.
