Oil inspection
Always check the oil before driving. When checking the oil, stop the
motorcycle on the Double Stand on a flat surface and wait for at
least 1 minute, then view the oil level in the oil sight hole glass. The
oil level should be between the minimum and maximum lines.
Only use high quality oil of the correct SG and its grade.
Use 10W/30 in winter and 15W/40 in summer.
Oil change
The oil should be replaced in the following order when the engine is hot:
1. Place the motorcycle on the Double Stand on a flat surface.
2. Place a tray under the engine and unscrew the oil pan screw from the oil pan and release the oil into the tray.
3. Screw out the Fine Oil Filter and clean it.
4. Re-install the fine oil filter, tighten the oil drain plug, and add new oil via the filler port.
5. Start the engine and let it idle for a few seconds.
6. Turn off the engine and wait for about one minute to check the oil level through the Oil Sight Glass. When checking the
oil level, the motorcycle should be horizontal and vertical. If the oil level is below the lower line, add more oil until the
level is between the minimum and maximum lines.
7. The total volume of oil from empty to full is 2700ml.
