Easiest way to change the oil on a motorcycle!

Here is a great tutorial on how to change the oil on a motorcycle. At the beginning he says it should take about 45 minutes, but if you follow his easy steps it shouldn't take more than 25 minutes to complete the whole job. lol

Re: Easiest way to change the oil on a motorcycle!

25-45 mins for an oil change?

wtf!!!!

seriously i can service a car in that time!

that includes changing the front brake pads

10 mins max is what it takes anyone with half a damn clue to do an oil change

bike or car

His method is better because it lets you inspect the bike for wear or other problems.

You might want to watch the video before commenting. It's got good information in it.
