oil changes onto center stand #@&*!
« on: May 23, 2018, 04:45:02 PM »
Today, as I was lazing there on my exercise matt trying to figure a way to keep the oil from draining again on my Piaggio's center stand...I had a divulgence!
(no, not that - already used the rest room)
Everything wants to drain right on the center stand, but...

"Who's to stop me if I fold up the center stand, put the scoot on the side stand and then put the drain pan right here!", I divulged to myself.


So, I did.
Sat on the upright scooter with coffee, for the final drain.
No mess to clean up.



Also - wish the pizza boys had given me more than #2 pencil-sized fill hole.

Still getting used to an oil bottle that is not a Qt., but a liter.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Spin on filter! That's a proper design - much better than the thimble filter for sure
