Oil filter change and tappet clearance check

[tintankaussie]

Today i bought a new filter/"0" rings-oil and a set of valve adjuster tools not only for this bike but for others that i have.also i am going to fit my new handle bars because mine are bent from the previous owner from dropping the bike.
I am going to try to take photos of each step and post it in "how to do"section,i hope this helps other fellow bikers...ken

1st pic-new handle bars

Well,today after work i changed my oil/filter and adjusted my tappets.took some pics of the progress.both of these tasks are already in the "how to"section so i thought i post some pictures just to help others.
This process took me 1.5 hours with 2 coffees on the go...ken

I remember from other posts,dont forget to fill with oil and connect vaccuum hose for fuel flow-replaced fuel line (old one all cracked).
started bike and checked for fuel/oil leaks and went for a spin,all good...ken
