Use a piece of wood for the kick stand to level bike so you can get a accurate measurement of oil , it should be even with the bottom of the hole where you are adding the oil this way you won't lose too much of the excess. Like your video.
I have a M50, it's the same principles. The only thing I would do differently is, I would ride it a bit before hand. It will warm up the oil and let it drain easier. I would also keep the bike upright right of the bat. Ride Safe!
@@jordanwigley8909 way too tight buddy... remember this isn't a moving part, it doesn't need that much torque. It's the same thing as the drain plug on your oil pan. It probably only needs like 20 to 30 newton meters.

I have hockey pucks that I use to level bike.

How often should you change this?
Mine is 7k or 2years. I go by miles more than time but thats just me.
@@t.j.postal8309 ok, thanks. Idk when mine was changed really. So it be best to change it. Do you know about fork oil also?
@@coin_addiction7167 Never had a bike long enough to change fork oil.
Do you know the torque for the drain plug? I just done mine and I feel like I started to strip it
