Default Oil Change -- where's the plug/bolt to drain?
Sorry, seemingly novice question, and i bought the service manual, but i'm not sure which plug/bolt to undo to drain the oil on my 04 RK Custom. The oil pan is directly below the oil fill spot on the motor, and i see a bolt that is close to the kickstand -- is that it?

[sm=icon_rtfm.gif] Sorry I always wanted to use that smilie. Seriously you may want to pick up a service manual before doing anything. Best $50 you can spend.

I would definately pick up an owners and service manual. Money well spent. Just for laughs, I found this ebook you can download...
