Caution Using an oil filter with the wrong design or thread specifi· cations can cause oil leaks or engine damage. Use a genuine suzuki oil filter or an equivalent designed for your motorcycle. |
Note
: to tighten the oil filter properly, it is important to accurately identify the position at which the filter gasket first contacts the mounting surface.
Note
: about 3000 ml (3.2 Us qt) of oil will be required when changing oil only.
Caution Engine damage may occur if you use oil that does not meet suzuki's specifications. Use the oil specified in the fuel, engine oil and coolant recommendation section. |
Recheck the oil level on the engine oil inspection window.
The engine oil level should be at the "f" (full) mark. If it is lower than the "f" mark, add oil until it reaches the "f" mark.
Inspect the area around the drain plug and oil filter for leaks.
