Oil Change steps:

1. Run the bike to get the oil warm
   
2. loosen the drain plug
3. drain oil
   
4. Remove the filter
5. let oil drain ( lower rear stand if you have one to make sure you get all the oil out)
6. Fill new filter and wiper oil on the rubber seal
7. tighten as tight as you can by hand and then give then slightest turn with the oil filter wrench.
8. re torque drain plug (use new crush washer).
   
9. re fill once you have it to the right spot on the viewing window I start the bike for a minute.
10. Then top off the oil if needed.
11. Ride
12. Check for leaks and check the oil level again
