First, Welcome to the club!

Second, Don't let some ***-clowns tell you to give up and go to the dealer. Learning to turn your own wrench will save you hundreds and maybe even thousands of dollars in labor.

One thing I will say is use the search, chances are it's been covered already.

Here is a link to a topic where I laid out step by step how to change the oil. Try it for yourself, it's easy and good to know how to do.

Whatever you do, don't listen to this guy:

There is no need for torqueing an oil filter or drain plug. The drain plug stops at the end like a plumbers fitting and the filter goes on hand tight and then 3/4 turn more. That is what those washers are for.

 

Yeah, 05ZX6R's right. You gotta learn somewhere. I suggest that you get a Manual and start reading. Even your owners manual and go out and look at your bike closely. That's how I learned. I even worked for free at a bike shop just to learn.

There actually is a recommended torque for the oil drain plug (22 ft lbs) and oil filter (23 ft lbs) but most people do not use a torque wrench on them. Just make sure that the drain bolt & filter are tight & secure. Be sure to use the aluminum washer and make sure the oil filter seal came off with the old filter and that the new one has one on it also. Put a film of oil on the seal before installation. You probably will need an oil filter wrench to remove the old filter and you can use it to secure the new one. Be sure to tighten the clamp back around the filter. Your filler cap is on the upper aft RH side of the clutch cover. Your bike takes 3.6Liters/ Qts of oil with the filter removed.
