MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT 39 ○If no oil appears in the oil level inspection window, tip the motorcycle slightly to the right until oil is visible then return to an upright position. If no oil appears even when tipped at an extreme angle, remove the drain bolts to empty any oil that may be in the transmission and crankcase, reinstall the drain bolts and refill with the specified amount of oil. NOTE The engine oil and/or oil filter should be changed periodically to ensure long engine life. Warm up the engine thoroughly so that the oil will pick up any sediment and drain easily. Stop the engine, and place a container beneath it. Remove the oil filler plug. Remove the oil drain bolts and position the vehicle perpendicular to the ground to allow all the oil to drain.
