Well... It is difficult to reach... It helps to wear some sort of heat resistant gloves, like Mechanix Wear or similar... But it is accessible. I haven't actually had to change the oil since I've had this pipe, but I will in the next week or so. I'm about to install a Predator front mount which looks easier to do without the oil filter in place, so I thought I would combine the project with an oil change.

Having the filter off makes it far easier. That's what I did when I put mine on, I wouldn't want to try it with it on. I'm about to do the dual Tokicos too but mine are getting powdered first and rebuilt with new seals. Hopefully I mocked it up close enough to get the brake line length correct.

Cool swap, F86. I'll have to keep this thread in mind for later down the road on my bike.
