It's probably worth including a step for adding oil and checking the dip stick. I'd hate for someone to fire up their bike with no oil (EEK!)|

Re: FZ6R Oil Change - How To
Good write up.
You know what they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words" and it's even better when the pictures have captions. Nothing like a plethora of knowledge all in one spot, yes, one stop shopping, you can't beat that with a baseball bat. |

Re: FZ6R Oil Change - How To
Instead of the screwdriver treatment next time try the patented RZ 350 Rider "Rope Trick". I believe I'm the first one in the world to use this method. Wrap the filter with about 4 turns or so of rope going from the filter mounting flange side going Counter-Clockwise, hold the end 1st and pull the side that UNSCREWS the filter, which will be the filter closed end side or 2nd end. I've used this way numerous times and never had it fail. I've even crushed the guts out of a few that were put on friends cars by the oil change franchise stores. Give it a try!
