Hi guys thought I'd do the right thing and change the oil and filter ( 2000 km in 6 months )
Drained the oil and nearly pulled the bike off the main stand ( this should of warned me )
Next lets drop the oil filter cover same again offing tight ( checked for lock tight none so the mechanic must have a rattle gun )
Ok ready to drop the filter hmmmmm that don't look right back to the manual over to oem parts nothing zippo matches my filter.
Check out a "R" 100RS filter on motor works ( can't hurt ) BINGO thats what I've got , so thinking ok just remove the filter
and bolt should be no problems then fit the Ryco filter . ....... Put the socket on ( yes correct size and direction) try to undo
the bolt ok maybe he used rattle gun here too bit more force and started to round the head . Any suggestions how to remove??
Figured 2000k filter should be good till next oil change . Spark plugs were the same bloody tight just need some Deoxit for the caps
cheers Tony
