    Default Did an oil change today on the 900

    Changed the oil on the wife's 900 today. The oil filter could certainly be located in a better spot huh? Don't understand why they make you pull it up and out.....I guess so you drip oil on the motor and get frustrated enough to take it to a dealer next time. The metal cap of the oem filter stuck in the cap when I took the cap off too...just FYI...had to pick it out with a screwdriver. I pressed the new filter into the cap, then placed the combination into the reservoir. The other odd thing was the way the oil drained....holy crap...it came outta there like a cow pissin on a flat rock....WTH?.... Made kind of a mess.

    Yeah it will. It wasn't difficult, but it was messy due to design....ah well....I'm still glad I did it. There was some crud on the magnet so getting that stuff out made it worth the experience
