  • It was time for an oil change. So I decided to do a quick instructional video for those with this same bike, considering this model, or maybe a project for whatever bike you own. By no means am I a certified mechanic but this is a simple task. An oil change is one of the most cost effective maintenance that can be done by almost anyone. Thanks for viewing!!!

    Great video. Very easy to follow. One idea to help with the screws. First Loosen them with the socket wrench then remove the socket from the driver handle and use the socket to turn the screw by hand. This helps me when I find hard to reach screw heads. Thanks for the video.

      Great video dude. I have the custom over here in the UK and I love it. Going to do the oil in the next few weeks and keep my fingers crossed the weather gets warmer. I am going to do my best not to turn the oil filter upside down when full... That put a smile on my face. Everyone does that at least once 😁
