Default New Power Commander and Oil Drain Plug Question

I just wanted to post up how excited I was about getting a PC3 USB this past weekend!! The wiring under the tank is really tight, so it took me a few minutes to get it hooked up. BUT, I was able to go for a ride yesterday (because I moved the bike to a storage location) and WOW!! You can really feel the difference in the lower end!! It really smoothes it out!! I got it practically brand new for $180 too, so I figured that wasn't a bad price. What do you guys think??

Also, I've never pulled the plastics off of my bike, so I was wanting to know which side the oil drain plug is on?? I looked in the manual, but I can't tell from the picture it gave. Thanks for any help!!

drain plus is on the bottom, you can change the oil with all plastics on the bike.

+1

When the bike is on the kickstand, lay on the right side and look under in the front (behind header)
you'll see it... I do my changes by just removong the lower fairings but i have large hands so its tight if i dont

Well, thanks a lot guys! I just couldn't seem to see it the other day, but I guess I just need to look harder. I'll probably end up taking the lowers off too because I am a big guy too.

How do you 929 guys get at the oil filter. I cant get at it on my 954 without taking the right fairing off.

Yeah, I tried looking through the bottom of the fairings and past the bulky exhaust, but I didn't see it. Thanks for the help guys!

My skinny arms reach in through the front and just take it off with my hands. Filter fits out the right side fairing. This method gets a little oil on the pipes but smoke is fun. I must admit if my hands or arms were much bigger i prob couldnt do it.
