Figured this was appropriate for this thread...
So I change my oil for the first time on my bike. I remove the drain bolt, all good. I crack the oil filter, which has a little nut on the top, it's a K&N. Well, that little nut hit the header before the filter is all the way unscrewed. What genius developed that?? So I yell alot and scratch my head (and other areas) while thinking... How about a hacksaw blade? Yea, no, not gonna get it. So I grab the sawsall and cut the nut off the end of the filter! I had a "nut-less" Fram filter to replace it with. Put my 3.8 qts of Mobil 1 10w-40 bike oil in and I'm good to go. Of course, I still need my swingarm/chain/brakes/brake lines and what not, but I'm a step closer!
Stock header? Hadn't used the K&N yet(Using Suzukis till the one year warranty runs out, just in case) was planning on getting one next change. You may have saved me a headache.
