Safety Precautions
Using the wrong oil filter may result in leaks or engine damage.
Drain the Engine Oil:
Refer to on page .
Your motorcycle’s oil filter has very specific performance requirements. Use a
new Honda Genuine oil filter or a filter of equal quality specified for your
model.
This procedure requires mechanical skill and professional tools such as a torque
wrench and oil filter wrench, as well as a means for disposing of the drained
fluid (page ). If you do not have the skills or the tools, see your dealer.
(cont’d)
Park your motorcycle on its center stand on a firm, level surface.
If the engine is cold, start it and let it idle for 3 5 minutes. Turn the engine
off. Wait 2 3 minutes for the oil to settle.
Remove the front lower cover (page ).
To drain the oil, remove the oil fill cap/dipstick, engine oil drain bolt, and
sealing washer.
Place a drain pan under the engine oil drain bolt.
