without draining the oil first, will I get oil draining out the filter hole? I want to switch out my K&N filter (it is slightly leaking around the nut on top, dangit) but my oil is pretty fresh and I don't want to waste it. So, how deep is that oil?
And to add to the question... I have six Honda filters that I got with the bike. They all have different part numbers, so I called the Honda dealer down the road and asked if any were the proper one. He said that there are only two filters that Honda ever made. A small one like our bike takes and a big one that works on some older bikes. So all these I have on hand are the same, though they have different part numbers on them. Is that true? I hope...
He also said that some oil would leak out but if I left the filler cap on and hurried, I wouldn't lose much oil. We shall see about that
