Oil change Question
I am trying to change the oil in my GZ. You can clearly see the oil in the see thru window but after draining the oil and removing the oil filter I can still see oil thru window and not much oil came out when draining. Any help greatly appreciated . :??:

1. Always drain with engine hot 2. Always drain with bike level or tilted to allow oil to run toward drain hole. More information is available in the owner's manual which is available under the "General" Topic.

The correct one is in the middle of a round cover plate and the head is about 3/4 inch wide. When you get the right one, about a quart and a half will come out. Study the owners manual a bit.
