I recently used some car ramps (turned around backwards) behind the front tires to wash the road Salt from my trip up north. I may get another (pair) and have the back tire up on a ramp as well so it will be level as you suggest but still be high off the ground. The snapping off of the bolt is one of those things that make me want to let someone else do the work so they have to fix anything that breaks. The problem is, I don't trust anyone to do a great job these days. Thanks for a GREAT VIDEO!!!! It was very timely because I was just talking myself into doing my own oil change. My 2021 RT is a bit different but I am sure I will figure out out.

Thank you so much, William! We love to make folks laugh!😂 How hard is it to change the oil on your bike? Even checking the oil is a process on the Spyder...drive it at least 9 miles, park it on a level surface and let it run for 10 min, turn off the engine and check the oil level within 2 minutes of turning off the engine. Oh...and did you notice the color of the dipstick? Kind of matched the clean oil...maybe white would have been a better option. Our garage door is heavy with all those stickers turned magnets on it. Do you have any logo stickers? I can send you some of ours or even some of our magnets for your garage if you like. Tommy is a collector of cool tin signs. Hope you have a great week!💜🤗

Hello, at the 14:40 mark, you mentioned replacing the T45 engine drain bolt with a hex head drain bolt. Can you tell us the part number or where you purchased it? I'd like to order both drain bolts and be ready for my next oil change. And thank you for posting this video.

I'm confused why is your oil reading low when u added 5 quarts and u said don't overfill. But u added more?? I'm not being a smarty pants just asking because this is all new to me. Thanks How did u lift the back end of the bike for the 2x4's leveling process?

Hello, Rick! Good question. The 2018 F3 oil capacity is more than 5 quarts. The kits come with 5.5 quarts...so I start with 5 and go from there. We used a low profile jack on the frame of the Spyder near the floor boards to jack it up and then used the 2 x 4's. It's not necessary but does make the process easier. Hope this helps you @rickmoore9840 💜🤗

Thanks

Luckily, we did not need to use the extractor kit that our neighbor was willing to lend us. Great question! 💜🤗

You almost have to do it yourself. $535.00 just to change oil and filter at dealer

Oh my gosh... that sounds like highway robbery... Have you shopped around for a different dealer? I drive 250 miles to my dealership and I have an appointment there in April to get my new tires put on. But here is what he charges for an oil change... The last oil change kit cost $144 plus labor and his labor is $100 per hour... That was in June of 2023 before we left for our Alaska trip because I wanted several other things done and figured I might as well get my oil changed because he is so reasonable. In Alaska I changed it myself as I had shipped an oil kit to our friend's house in North Pole.. Back in 2021 I paid $177 for an oil change and that included the labor. I realize prices have gone up in the past few years... In 2021 that oil kit cost $113.99.

Ouch. That would be a terrible disappointment if that broke and you wanted to go for a ride as soon as the change was done. Yuck
