The drain plug is under the left hand foot peg. The filter is located behind the exhaust headers. Remove them and you will see the filter housing at the base of the engine. Refill on the right hand side and your sight glass is under the filler/dipstick (both use the same hole). Remember to only check the oil level when the bike is upright (not standing on its stand)
Hope that is not too vague
SOURCE: Where is oil filter found and how to replace on XVS 650 Classic
1. ) Using the 10mm hex socket, remove the two bolt holding the
mufflers to the frame. Next, loosen the clamps holding the front pipes
to the mufflers using the 6mm hex socket. Using the wipe rags (HOT!),
pull the mufflers toward the back of the bike. They should slide right
out.
2. ) (This step is only required if you have an 1100 Classic with
floorboards) Using the 14mm socket and wrench, loosen the two bolts
holding the right floorboard until they are almost completely out, and
the floorboard will hang down slightly.
3. ) Next, using the 8 mm wrench, remove the bolt holding the rear brake reservoir. Let the unit hang loose.
4. ) Using the 12mm socket, remove the two nuts on the forward exhaust
pipe flange. Grabbing the front of the pipe with wipe rags, gently
remove the front exhaust pipe. Take extreme care in removing the pipe
as you will scratch it (like the dealer's shop always does) if you are
not careful. If the copper gasket falls off the engine, just let it go.
I promise you that it will be very, very HOT! Just make sure that it
goes back on when you re-assemble the pipes.
5. ) Using the 8mm hex socket with the 10 in. extension (or an 8mm.
\"T\" wrench) loosen the five case screws holding the filter cover.
There are 3 different lengths of screws, so leave them in the cover.
You don't need to remove the 3 screws holding the round \"Yamaha
beauty\" cover on the filter cover, there is nothing behind this cover
(It comes off easily to enable you to buy a new one from the Star
Catalog for $39.95 STR-5KS27-43-02 that does not say Yamaha). Remove
the filter cover. If you wrap a small square of aluminum foil over the
section of frame and wiring just below the filter cover, you will avoid
slopping oil over the frame of your bike.
6. ) You will find an unpolished filter hatch plug underneath which
you will need to wiggle back and forth as you pull straight out to
remove it. Be careful not to damage the O-rings on the cover. Wipe any
grit or dirt away with a clean paper towel.
7. ) Remove the filter (pay attention to the orientation of the filter
when you remove it). Wipe any sediment from the filter chamber with a
clean paper towel and insert the new filter.
8. ) Reinstall all parts in the reverse order of disassembly
==== Unscrew the black plastic oil filler cap and insert the
funnel into the filler hole. Engine Oil with oil filter replacement
(3.28 US qt) ( 0.28 quart = 8.96 oz ) Engine Oil- Without oil filter
replacement
(3.17 US qt) ( 0.17quart = 5.44oz ) ====
Start the bike and bring it up to full operating temperature. Check for
any signs of leaking oil from the filter hatch and the drain plug.
When you shut the engine down, check your oil level in the sight glass
on the left side lower engine case. The bike must be held level front
to back and side to side. This is quite a balancing act as your head
needs to be about 14" off the ground in order to see the oil level in
the sight glass.

Use 10w40 in the gearbox. Get the oil from your Yamaha dealer along with any filter your bike may need. Some bikes use an oil change as the "filter". To drain oil, get the engine warmed up and turn it off. Put a pan under the gearbox and remove the oil drain plug. Replace the oil plug when the flow becomes a slow drip. Change oil in late spring, the middle of summer and in early fall. Remember to lube the chain and adjust it when needed. Lubricate the cables with liquid graphite. Lastly, install a stock spark plug. Now go for a ride.
