if sat on bike right hand side of engine are three allen bolts (hex heads) that hold a cover in place it is located behind that cover ... think it is towards the front of the casing about 2/3rds way up if i remember correctly

Be warned, when you undo the cover, a bit of oil might dribble out, nice stain on my patio that

Thanks for the reply. I tried getting the casing off put managed to snaped all my allen keys, the bloody thing is on there too tight. Im just gonna get a mechanic to bloody do it for me.

Thanks though.

Don't use allen keys mate. Use allen bits that you can put onto a socket then a wrench, Some wd40 and a few wacks with a hammer normally help. If you do do it yourself remember and make sure the oil pressure is ok. ALl you do is undo the inspection bolt (bottom right of the three pictured) and let the engine run, no longer than a minute. Hold a cloth near the opening as oil should spout out

if i remember correctly there is a oil pressure screw the top back of the cylinder head on the right hand side if sat on bike and this has to be undone to allow air to escape if the oil has been drained as it will not pump up to the valves otherwise
