the scheduled time. The oil should be
changed when the engine is warm so

the engine. The procedure is as fol-
lows:
1. Place the motorcycle on the cen-
ter stand.
2. Remove the left fairing by referring
to the SPARK PLUGS section.
3. Remove the oil filler cap

from the bottom of the
engine and drain the engine oil
into a drain pan.
NOTE: Recycle or properly dispose of
used oil.

CAUTION
Hot engine oil and exhaust pipes
can burn you.
Wait until the oil drain plug and
exhaust pipes are cool enough to
touch with bare hands before
draining oil.

WARNING
Children and pets may be harmed
by swallowing new or used oil.
Repeated, prolonged contact with
used engine oil may cause skin
cancer. Brief contact with oil may
irritate skin.
Keep new and used oil and used
oil filters away from children and
pets. To minimize your exposure
to used oil, wear a long-sleeve
shirt and moisture-proof gloves
(such as dishwashing gloves)
when changing oil. If oil contacts
your skin, wash thoroughly with
soap and water. Launder any
clothing or rags if wet with oil.
Recycle or properly dispose of
used oil and filters.
