Changed oil on both bikes yesterday. We made a bit of a mess taking the filter out but such is life. Paper towels were in place to soak up spillage etc. We also removed the counter shaft cover to check for a build up of chain lube around the front sprocket. I say WE because this was Lynda's first experience wrenching on anything. She did the whole thing herself ( on the GZ ) with me instructing and biting my tongue. It is hard to remember that a newbie doesn't have a feel for things that I have been doing for decades. Cleaned the chains with kerosene and then wiped dry before DuPontTeflon spray was applied. Bikes are ready for the middle of June trek to the Canadian Prairies. Amsoil 10-40 M/C specific oil in both bikes.
