1. Remove the front cowling by loosening all 8 screws, then gently pulling it off. 2. To gain interior access to the engine and oil filter, remove the 4 bolts circled in red and also the 2 smaller securing bolts circled in white—leave these larger bolts in place for now. 3. Slide theOil Filter Wrench (supplied) over the end of the filter bolt and carefully twist while holding onto the retaining washer on the side of the filter; be sure not to lose this washer! Once the filter is free from the engine, pull it out. 4. In order to prevent metal-to-metal contact, use a generous amount of engine oil on both sides of the new filter gasket (shown highlighted in yellow) before pressing it into position and tightening all 4 bolts. Replace the securing bolts and reattach cowling. 5. Charge your bike and go enjoy!
