Lunatic Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I just got a 1983 Venture Royale, and am ordering the manual soon. Would someone please tell me where the oil drain plug is located? And is the oil filter inside the engine on the lower front of the engine? Thanks for any and all help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen_Agusta Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Your filter for your XVZ1300 is internal ... http://www.bikebandit.com/k-n-powersports-oil-filter?mg=41533&t=1&td=1 ... and there is a nasty little o-ring which if pinched when putting the bolt ... back in will leak ... you may wish to consider purchasing one of thse ... it makes the changing of oil far easier ... http://www.justcruisers.com.au/contents/en-us/d50.html ... though the filter is nowhere nearly as well protected as the internal filter. Regarding the location I do not remember exactly however once you puchase the filter and now that you know you are looking for a bolt with a flat flange ... it should be ovious where it is ... which is normally center of front-bottom of the engine ...
