Here is a video I came across on YouTube for changing the oil on the FZ-10

Cool basics guide! Looking forward to see the Drive chain adjustment.

I recommend putting anti-seize compound on the drain bolt threads. The steel threads CAN seize (seen it happen on FZ09) in the aluminum pan with catastrophic results. Also, always replace the aluminum crush washer.

Also, always replace the aluminum crush washer. Why would you ever introduce aluminum powder, graphite, or any other metallic abrasive to your engine's oil? Anti-seize compounds contain material that can ruin engines manufactured with such close tolerances. If you're truly worried about an oil drain plug seizing -- a truly rare occurrence, I recommend using a torque wrench to tighten the drain plug to spec. |

Careful with that anti-seize . Anti seize in the oil will do a number on bearings. Plus lubing the threads
will allow you to OVER TORQUE the drain bolt. Go with factory recommended torque and new washer you will
be fine. I'll use anti seize in corrosion areas, back off the torque 10 percent. Never use it on brake rotor
disk bolts.

 photo uploadingDifferent lubrications can have different effects on applied torque. Also, Anti-seize compounds might be nickel, aluminum or copper based. None of these are good for bearing loaded surfaces. Engine oil oil should be the only necessary lubricant. |
