Remove the engine side cover and pull the comb filter out. Make sure the the o ring is on inside the filter before installing the new filter. There is also an o ring that goes onto the cover before installing the cover. Bolt the cover back.There should be a small finger screw cap on the top of the right engine cover (the cover with the oil sight glass on it). Unscrew it and add oil till it's just to the top of the site glass (with the bike sitting as level as possible). ----------- This will help.Thanks.Helpmech.
