    it's time for her first oil change. she's growing up so fast.
    i personally installed the staintune's and the PCIII w/O2 elims but when i had the fairings off, i didn't make note if the oil filter was on the left or right side. i'm guessing right. so which side is the oil filter located? L & R as if sitting on the bike. i recall since taking the plastics off is a major P.I.T.A. i don't wanna guess.
    thanks for the help.

    Left side fairing (if sitting on the bike), assuming the 6th gen has the filter
    in the same place as the 5th and 4th gen.

    Left side but if you have the slip-on oilwrench and smaller hands you can remove it from though the front cowl by removing a lot less screws.

    You can see the filter by looking through the front. I used an extension and a slip-on wrench.
