Getting ready to do a basic oil change on the hyper before I put her up for the winter time. What torque settings do I need for the drain plug, oil filter, etc. Thanks!
 
to piggy back, can you get the oil filter off without a wrench? Watched a bunch of Duc oil change vid's and all the filter's had a shroud that covered most of it.
 
Drainplug w/magnet looks like 42 nm with threadlock recomended by my 796 service manual. (same size drainplug on the 796) Resist the urge to overtighten.

My oil filter required a small strap wrench to loosen. I snugged it up by hand and won't need the wrench next time.

First oil change I did I tightened the filter by hand and had a slow leak. Since then I tightened it with a small strap wrench and hasn't leaked again
