Did the first service...

[ChicagoRocket]

Took me about an hour. Manual describes the oil change process perfectly. My bike took 4.5 liters with filter.

The shaft drive fluid took about 5 minutes. Hardly any fluid used to fill the shaft. Half a liter maybe.

used motul for oil and gear fluid change.

Did you replace the crush washers on all the drains? I'm about to do my first service.

yes. 3 of them. 1 bigger one 2 smaller. I didn’t do the crush washers for the rear end fluid though. No leaks.

Just wonder if they are the same as the old Rocket, I do have a set of those. I believe one is bigger than the other two

It's supposed to be 170 millilitres in the rear drive, level with the filler hole.
