Great video! Really considering a K1300 I currently own my third Harley Davidson, and changing the oil on that is a complete pain in the ass. The new 2024s, just getting access to the oil filter takes a master mechanic. It’s ridiculous. This was SUPER easy!!!

A long allen wrench isn't necessary, just put a 1/4" drive allen wrench on a short extension. That's how I do it and the pan can stay in place. It would help to explain that the oil fill hole is very small, so a small funnel is required. It's wise to pour in just 3.5l of oil, you may overflow if more than that is put in, then run the engine. But nothing is gained by running the cold engine up at 3K rpm, just idle for 30 seconds is fine, the manual doesn't state to rev it, for example. Otherwise this is a pretty decent video, keep it up, there isn't enough K16 content on KZbin.

I needed a long allen. The extensions i have were too wide.

Oil presure is at its lowest at idle, raising the revs to 3k will give max oil presure in the shortest time

Thank you for the video. Torque values would be helpful. And I don’t think 6 quarts is correct. My owner’s manual says 4.5 liters (about 4.75 quarts).

I’ve always struggled with black dipsticks and checking my k1600s oil level. I’m going to check it after my journey home tonight, takes me roughly 40 minutes and the weathers warm. How long would you recommend letting it sit and cool down before checking?

K16s make the biggest mess of anything I've changed oil on and I worked at an oil change place when I was a kid.

The K1200 is messier by far. The sump's drain line must be pulled down between the frame and the sump, you should plug the line to avoid a real mess. And the oil filter is deeper in, so oil gets on the exhaust even more than the K16 so more cleanup. With a little experience you can make these oil changes less messy, but not by a lot, that's for sure.

@@CitEnthusiast Not the K1200 Flying Brick! Tidy, no-mess oil change is a piece of cake. Hardest thing about it is getting the Tupperware off... and even that can be avoided if you can wiggle the engine spoiler free while leaving the main fairing panels in place. Just sayin'... 🙂

@@claudiusdunclius2045 The flying brick is a completely different bike than the K44 K12s. I have both versions and while the brick is easy to do the oil filter cover does make a mess. I've never done more than remove the belly pan, it's easy to do, why would anyone ever remove a side panel for an oil change? The K44 (K12/13 slant engines) has a pipe for draining the dry sump that is a pain, and the oil filter when removed dumps all over the exhaust unless you use something to divert the flow into a pan.

@@CitEnthusiast Was just going to remark on this. the wet filter on the K1200 is truly a mess no matter what. I stare at both of my K bikes when I feel like riding, and keep the mileage low on the LT just to make oil changes fewer.
