    Then in the end its good, you have learned something which you would never have found if you had taken the bike to a dealer for the oil change. As others have advised, get the service manual and study how the bike comes apart (and goes back together.)

    "Experience" is the name that everyone gives to their mistakes.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
    those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

    I know of a friend who overtightened their sump bolt and it cost them a Hyosung engine when it exited while he was riding .

    Be very careful dude but keep it up, glad to hear you're doing your own shit, we all learn from our mistakes after all!
