This one belongs in a museum! It's basically new. The wife used to have a heavily modified one years ago. I miss that bike from time to time.

Really nice clear video, thanks. Did you warm the bike up prior to draining the oil? What are your thoughts on that?

I did, sorry if I forgot to mention that. I tend not to let it get all the way hot, but you can do that if you like. It's best to do that because anything that's not caught in your filter is more likely to be suspended in the oil and will be drained out. You will also be able to drain it out quickly as the oil will flow out much better when it is hot.

Hello, whats a good grade for moderate to usually cold n rainy weather?

Would it make sense to keep the lower drain plug out till you open the oil filter cover to help with drainage? Relief any vacuum in there?

It shouldn't make much difference. First, the crank case has to be vented in some way in order to keep pressure from building up inside the engine during operation and blowing out seals, although the PCV systems are sometimes equipped with one way valves. Even if that were a concern, when you remove the cap it's a large opening and would allow air in from the top of the opening. Think about it like pouring liquid out of a cup rather than a bottle with a small opening. That said, that's one of the reasons that I leave the slightly unscrewed around the 8:43 mark, although I didn't mention that specifically. Ride safe and thanks for the comment!
