Installation Steps:

1. Prepare Your Motorcycle:

   • Ensure your motorcycle is on a stable, flat surface.
   • Allow the engine to cool down if it has been running.

2. Drain the Old Oil:

   • Place the oil drain pan under the engine.
   • Remove the oil drain plug using a socket wrench and let the old oil completely drain into the pan.
   • After draining, replace and tighten the drain plug securely.

3. Remove the Old Oil Filter:

   • Use the oil filter wrench to loosen the old oil filter. Turn it counterclockwise until it's loose enough to remove by hand.
   • Carefully remove the filter and allow any excess oil to drain into the pan.

4. Prepare the New Oil Filter:

   • Before installing the new oil filter, apply a small amount of new engine oil to the rubber gasket on the top of the filter. This helps create a good seal and makes removal easier during future changes.

5. Install the New Oil Filter:

   • Screw the new oil filter onto the engine by hand. Turn it clockwise until it is snug. Avoid over-tightening.

6. Add New Engine Oil:

   • Use a funnel to pour the new engine oil into the oil fill opening. Refer to motorcycle your's manual for the correct type and quantity of oil needed.

7. Check for Leaks:

   • Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. Check for any leaks around the oil filter and drain plug.
   • Turn off the engine and recheck the oil level using the dipstick. Add more oil if necessary.

8. Clean Up:

   • Dispose of the old oil and oil filter properly at a recycling center.
   • Clean any mess with rags or paper towels.
