During the oil change, I also polished the filter cover to clean it up. It’ll feel great going forward.

DSC00915 I ordered the drain, but completely forgot to arrange the filter bolt. It’s only 16.3 mm across the flats. I’ll get that ordered for you.

I drained the oil for now.

The gasket is a genuine Suzuki part with a flange, and it fits perfectly.

I’m not too keen on that big M10 cap bolt sticking out. I’ll make a cosmetic cover and install it.

Looks good.

The clearance is tight, so I’ll trim a bit on the step side.

Let me break the edge here a little too.

I basically don’t want to touch the frame side, but I’ll just break the edge.

Well, I’ll leave it at about this point.

Since I’ll be removing it again, I’ll just do a temporary fix for now.
The hand-bent radius is beautifully done.

The breather outlet direction on Z models is a bit tricky. I thought I could work around it with fittings, but when I ran the numbers on parts, it got pretty marginal. Keeping it within what we can do in-house turned out to be the best value.
