This topic has probably been asked, and beaten to a pulp but it's 2019 and I'm bringing it back :)
I ordered an OEM oil filter + that $15 tool from yamaha to remove it. Going to do an oil change soon, I was lazy and did not change my ~900 miles I had on the last oil change before putting it...
So I changed my oil with Rotella Dino oil, and the tapping noises seem more pronounced now, especially until the oil gets up to operating temperature. Anyone else notice this. I used the oil i did becaise i work in a truck shop and get Rotella for basically nothing. The old oil was rather nasty...
I Would Like To Know What Type And Weight Of Oil That Others Are Using. This Will Be My 2nd Service. Is There Anything Else That Is Really Needed At That Enterval? The Bike Has About 1800 Miles On It.
Thanks Michael
