an environmentally friendly way.
• Prefill the replacement engine oil
filter with new engine oil.
• Apply a smear of clean engine oil to
the sealing ring of the new engine
oil filter. Install the engine oil filter
and tighten to 89 lbf in (10 Nm).
• After the engine oil has completely
drained out, install a new sealing
washer to the sump plug. Install and
tighten the plug to 18 lbf ft (25 Nm).
• Remove the engine oil filler plug.
• Using a suitable funnel, fill the
engine with a 10W/40 or 10W/50
semi or fully synthetic motorcycle
engine oil that meets specification
API SH (or higher) and JASO MA,
such as Castrol Power 1 Racing 4T
10W-40 (fully synthetic) engine oil,
sold as Castrol Power RS Racing
4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic) in some
countries.
• Do not overfill or exceed the
capacities given in the Specifications
section.
• Start the engine and allow it to idle
for a minimum of 30 seconds.
Caution
Raising the engine speed above idle,
before the engine oil reaches all
parts of the engine can cause engine
damage or seizure.
Only raise engine speed after running
the engine for 30 seconds to allow the
engine oil to circulate fully.
• Make sure that the low oil pressure
warning light extinguishes shortly
after starting.
