Question
1 - How much oil do you need to put in with a oil and filter change?
2 - Where is the oil drain hose located?
3 - I want new drag bars and confused about the options about the wiring and dimples etc.  i want it to look as clean as possilbe. Hidden wires maybe? What do i need to know.

Thank you

Answer
The bike holds aprox 3.5 quarts. you need to fill it to the mark on the dipstick with the bike standing up straight.
The drain is located under the oil tank. There is a hose coming out of the tank below the rear of the motor.
You can install any bars you like. Hidden wire handlebars are a little more complicated. you have to disconnect the wires so you can feed them through the bars. The dimples mean that there is a dimple in the handlebars so the wires dont get pinched where the switch controls go. Non dimple will pinch the wires
Good luck and happy riding
