jump ahead to present and 200k miles! did i flush??? well NOPE and she still runs at 133mph @ 7.5k redline. i just hope my evo sport will be as good. BTW, i show no mercy to them. the sport tops the clock out when dropping into forth, whoohoo sportgear and int'l gearing, + a few extra mods.
BTW: the oil filter was added at 175k miles when i added electric foot.

Just to make sure I understand your approach: Since you are not removing the oil line from the tank, it would still leave the dirty oil between filter and return line in the system, wouldn't it? Or am I missing something here?
Probably just a tiny amount, but if I do the scavenging approach already, I might as well pull all the way through.
Best, niv
How much is in that hose? Maybe a shot glass or two? Not enough to make a difference. Only way to to avoid leaving that is to pull the line off the tank but then you'd be pushing dirty oil from the case and contaminating a new filter!
Pull dip stick, pull oil plug , disconnect all oil lines remove filter. Turn bike upside down leave over night shake for 5 minutes . Put upright finish oil change.
This chit will never go way it is a waste of time and money but if it helps up sleep go for it
Some are just no happy until the take a simple service and turn it into a pain in the ***.
26 years old every oil change warm up pull plug from hose pull dip stick remove filter. Replace filter install plug tuck hose back in fill with oil ride.
