I found that when all drain plugs are out, oil is fully drained and I put the bike on the side stand, you will be surprised that old oil still coming out. Also, I know many don't use a T. Wrench on the drain plugs and oil filter. but I do. I never had even one issue on many oil changes, by now.
I’m curious as to why you only did 1/2 of an oil change. You did not show the actual installation of both oil filters, made no mention of torque values for the drain plugs and unless I am mistaken doesn’t Honda recommend doing the draining on the side stand?
I'm sorry maybe I missed it. Why would it have two different filters, if the oil is the same, and going into the same hole. I seen another video and it was done just like this one. I'm just trying to understand it. I would think that the transmission would have a different type of oil also
Question for you have you ever checked it and it seems like it needs more the the requirement amount of oil . I put 4.9 after a complete oil change and ran it for about 15mins then I waited 3 min like manual said and I had it on the center stand and seems like it needed more.??
First, when you change the oil, you don't need to run her for 15 mins. 5 is perfect or 2 bars on the gauge. Second, if you drained the oil well till nothing comes out and added 4.9 qts, don't worry too much, she is fine. The way Honda created this oil change steps is crazy. Every so often, go under and check for leaks, if she is dry, you are good till next oil change. You need to be 80% up from the lower oil line on the stick. All good, boss.
Thanks a bunch!!! This is very well made, very clear!!! Grateful here!
Great video, simple and to the point.

Great explanation and demonstration thank you
My owners manual says to change the oil with bike on the side stand for the DCT.
grazie per il video

Because the DCT has it's own separate filter to help prevent the contaminates of the clutch from going through the entire motor.
