Well, I'm sure there are posts on this.. but look under the bike, just behind the motor and you'll see a rubber hose with a plastic plug held in by a hose clamp. This it the drain hose. Loosen the clamp and pull the plug. Let oil drain, replace plug, change filter and before screwing filter on pour 4 oz of oil in filter. then pour the remaining 3 quarts of oil into the oil resevoir. Should about do it. I do recommend you spend the $$ and purchase the service manual. Very good info there for the do it yourselfer.
