Oil change surprise

Post by Mike101 »

I decide to change the fluids in my 1150rt today. Also changed fork seals after one burst last year.

So forks done...final drive and gearbox done..now to engine oil.

Now where did I put the filter removal tool...I know I've got one. I searched the entire garage and could not find it.

In the end I did find it in the one place I would never expect to find it...any ideas folks?

In your empty violin case because you were playing it whilst lamenting as to where you'd left the oil filter removal tool?

You got it Herman. It was stuck fast on the filter on the bike.

Took me an hour to find it..!
