7. Checking for Leaks:

   • Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes, then check under the motorcycle for any signs of leaking oil around the filter and drain plug.

8. Final Check:

   • After confirming there are no leaks, check the oil level using the dipstick and add more oil if necessary.
