He locates the drain plug, filter, and dipstick without prior research, drains and refills the engine oil, and improvises a longer funnel with duct tape and a metal pipe when his oil funnel is too short. Casual, unpolished, and honest about mistakes rather than a polished how-to.
An owner-operator sharing a hands-on, first-time DIY maintenance experience on his own 2025R, not a professional or dealer tutorial.
The owner could not find the first oil change interval in the manual, guessed it was not earlier than 100 hours and possibly not until 200, but chose to change it at 106.4 hours.
The drain only produced about three quarts or less, so the owner filled with two quarts, checked the dipstick, then added about a third of a quart more.
A 17 millimeter socket was the best fit found for removing the oil drain plug, which was snug and a bit tough to start.
The owner attached a metal pipe to his oil funnel with duct tape to extend it so oil could reach the fill opening under the air pipe without spilling.
