Finally completed the first oil change myself.
- Oil Filter came off easily with the std oil wrench.
- No major issues overall, checked the chain , throttle play.. everything was fine.
- Installed new Honda OEM oil filter ( Hand tight only)
- Replenished it with Honda recommended oil.( Was careful not to overfill by watching the oil sight glass window)
- After draining out all the used oil from the bike , I dropped off the oil to a recycling depot. Noticed very fine shiny material on the bottom of Blitz oil collector. I use this oil collector to drain the oil on my 2001 Triumph Bonneville as well and have never cleaned it after emptying all the used oil. This time I decided clean this to watch for any shiny deposits during my next oil change..
- Feels great and my weekend has already started..
