quick oil change question
« on: July 31, 2016, 05:55:10 AM »
I have a cb350f and I put new oil in it yesterday and suspect the new o ring on the bolt is leaking. Can I remove the filter cover without draining the oil pan?

Some oil will definitely spill out. Less if you have the bike off the main stand. And even more less if you have the front raised. You'll have to replenish the oil the drains out, but no need to drain the oil pan.
