jerc Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 hello to everyone! because i'm starting a new riding season i of course want to change oil and oil filter. Because i haven't done this before and because i don't want to start this if i can't do it on my own(but i want to save some money )i ask you guys this: do i need any special yamaha-tools that i don't have? i mean...i have all the standard tools and wrenches you can buy in every shop... thanks for answers!
clarke Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Hi Jerc, You don't need any special tools, just torque wrench with either 17/19mm sprocket (can't remember which one), allen keys and a BIG pan for collecting the used oil. Did mine last summer and saved about £40 on labour Good luck Graham

Make sure that the bike is level when you refill with oil, also make sure you use the correct type of oil, very important.
