Changing the transmission oil regularly will enhance the
service life of the transmission. The oil should be
changed after the first 500 miles (800 km) of service and
at 5,000-mile (8000 km) intervals thereafter when riding
under normal conditions.
The fill plug dipstick is located at the front on the
chrome right-side housing cover. The magnetic drain
plug is also located on the right side of the transmission,
in the trapdoor just below the housing cover.

If equipped, remove the exhaust pipe-to-transmission
bracket and fasteners, using a 1/2" wrench and a 1/4"
hex bit.
Place a drain pan in position below the right side
housing cover.
Remove the drain plug from the trapdoor, using a
5 mm hex bit. Allow the oil to completely drain into the
drain pan.
Figure 418 — Drain plug removal (transmission shown
removed)
Clean the magnetic drain plug to remove all dirt and
foreign material.
Install the drain plug and tighten it securely. It should
project slightly above (0.1–0.2") the surface of the
trapdoor when it is installed properly.
Do not over-tighten the magnetic drain plug. When
draining and refilling the transmission oil, use care
that dirt and debris do not get into the case. DO
NOT allow oil to get on the rear wheel, the tires or
the brakes. The traction and handling of the
motorcycle could be impaired, possibly resulting
in personal injury and damage to the motorcycle.
