    Hi, have a new to me 2018 V4S, it's had a rough life - picked it up from auction at the end of last year as a salvage title with crash damage - but was just cosmetic/easy fix stuff.

    V2 pre-oil or screen filter?

    My XDiavel has an oil pickup or pre-filter that is a screen material, which you clean with petro every few oil changes. It is easy to remove (four bolts of a cover plate under the motor) and the liquid gasket seals it back nicely. Is the oil net filter (#42710171a) the equivalent for the V2...

    Oil light

    Guys my oil light was going off on the dash with 720 miles or so. I assumed it was the first engine oil service light. I changed the oil at 320 and then again today at 777 but I'd liked to be able to rest my oil light. I heard about possibly tune boy set up that can? Is that the best way? And...

    Oil Intake Mesh Filter cleaning: how often on a track bike?

    The book says every second oil change. But thats for a street bike and that would be at 7500 miles for the first one. How often should it be cleaned for a track only bike? I change the oil every 3-4 track days so I don't want to be doing that service every 600 miles! Thanks, Matt
