Wasn't paying enough attention when I clicked buy, got the wrong weight. I'm a master tech for cars but don't know much about V-Twins. Bought the Honda GN4 10w30 instead of the GN4 10w40 like I was supposed to. Is this like some cars where they take 5w20 but can take 5w30 for one service...

Hey there. I've been searching for the last couple days for a solution to my problem, but nothing so far. I'm hoping somebody here can help. The other day I was out riding for the first time after I did an oil change and checked all my other fluids. Everything was normal when I took off. I...

I'm somewhat of a novice when it comes to mechanics. I had just changed the oil in my 2005 VTX 1300S. I didn't realize there were 2 oil plugs. The amount of oil that came out seemed low. I put 3 qts in and like an idiot, assumed all would be fine. As I drove down the street I heard a little...

I just picked up an F2 last month and my dealer said to bring it back at 600 miles for it's first check up/oil change. My manual shows 4,000 for the first one. Is the dealer trying to get service $ out of me? When should I really do the first oil change (which I'll do myself) and is there a...

OK...I'm either losing my basic math skills or I'm just plain missing something. Here was my oil change procedure: Buy 4 quarts of oil and a new HiFlo HF204 oil filter. Remove BOTH drain plugs and the old oil filter. Sit on the bike and rock it a bit. Replace both plugs and slap on the new...
