    I have the Green Manual, but that one looks pretty decent also!

    I can't tell from the image if your Spyder is an SM5 or SE5. If an SE5 you will also need an HCM filter

    Never heard of Edwards Motorsports and RV.
    I've bought quite a bit from Mosites in PA with nothing but good things to say. They have the same kit on eBay for the same price. http://www.ebay.com/itm/182225135882

    Question DIY Oil and Filter Change?

    I read the pages in the Manual for my 2012 RT about changing the oil, filter, and HCM filter. Seems like I have to remove 1/2 the body panels to get access. If I elect to do this myself, I'll buy one of those kits with everything, but I'll have to do it outside (no garage) on a tarp. Without lifting the bike, will I have sufficient access to everything? I don't have a torque wrench, so I'll have to guess-timate the tightness of the plug. Do I need anything other than basic tools? Is this a task a "beginner" should try, or should I bring it to the dealer? If the dealer, how much will they charge to do the oil and filters change? (My nearest dealer charges top dollar for everything...) Your thoughts?
