Exhuast Removal for an oil change?
Posted: Thu Jun 18, 2015 8:29 am
Hi All,
Iv got my xj600s booked in next week at the local bike garage for an oil and filter change, as I bought the bike with no service history and just want to have the piece of mind knowing its been done.
It has a 4 into 1 exhaust fitted which makes it hard to gain access to the drain plug a little hard, is it really necessary for them to remove it completely? or can it be loosened from the rear hanger and 'pushed lightly' to gain the 5mm clearance needed?
If so how long will It take to remove and reinstall?
Thanks in advance
Ash
