Job Done.

G'day all - thx for all the inputs...

Changed the oil last night ( Mobil 4T racing gold cap ) Took 3.5 liters ( with filter ) and is showing a wee bit over the high mark. Rode up from the Gong to work ( Sydney airport ) this am. Maybe it's just me but it seemed to be running just a bit sweeter and the gear changes just a bit smoother.

It had the OEM filter from the last service and the guys at St Peters must have locktighted it on. Of course we didn't have the correct tool so ended up making a right mess of the old filter with screwdrivers, etc. Put Purolator (?) aftermarket filter on that sits about 1/2" lower than the OEM filter. Much easier to get off.. That's it - no more about oil, ever again...
Yeeee ha - bring on the 9th July.. 14 more sleeps..
