i changed the oil yesterday and i guess i added a little to much, cause the little glass is full. i couldnt of added that much more, maybe .2 liters or so, so i just need to drain a tiny bit out, whats the best way to do this?

 

Open the drain plug and let out as much as you need to.Dont remove the drain plug all the way.

 

is this a serious question??? i kid, i kid, its a pain in the *** to change the oil compared to other vehicles. if there was an easier way i'd do it too. unfortunately we r all screwed.

 

thanks, sounds simple enough.

changing the oil was the worst experience of my life lol. it started when i accidentally spilt 1/4 of the oil out of the pan i drained it into lol then i couldnt get the filter out between the headers, i had to take the fairings off. i tried forever to do it, and it just wouldnt fit. (maybe cause it was hiflow??)

 

Loosen the drain plug with a wrench or socket and then unscrew it the rest of the way with your fingers. Hold the plug against the hole so you can easily control the flow of how much and fast you want it to drain.

Also, you mentioned the difficulty in removing the oil filter. If it's the first oil change it will usually be hard to remove. I've found that to be the case, whether it's a new car or bike. Maybe they don't put a film of oil on the gasket when they install it at the factory like you're supposed to do.

 

These are nice to have. Just stick it in the fill-hole and suck out the excess:
