My friend just called me he bought a 200s and wants to change the oil in it. He said that he can't find where to drain the oil, I live 30 miles away and told him that I would come over Sat afternoon. Where is the drain plug on this 3 wheeler? Anything I need to warn him about when changing oil?
Thanks

 

Large plug near the left footpeg at the bottom of the crank case, there is a spring and metal filter behind it. After the oil is drained, tip the trike on its side slightly to get a little extra out.

 

TIP: When you check the oil, do NOT screw the dip stick in, just touch it to the case, and pull it back out. After the level is correct, screw it in.

 

You have to change the oil?

I thought you said it was a honda 200s?

 

I have not been over there yet but he said that it was a 200s. Are you not able to change the oil?
Thanks

 

LOL, yes you can; I was wondering what he ment by that also!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Yeah, I was just kidding.

When you get them running right, they run forever.

My buddy hasn't ever changed the oil on his. Every time he thinks it needs an oil change, he just goes out an rolls it a couple times while racin' on the circle track. Quite a bit of oil comes out on every roll. When it gets down far enough, you just add oil to the fill line and you've just changed your oil.

 

You shouldn't pick on the new1!!LOL. Thanks for the info. We went out yesterday and the brought his 3wheeler and my other friend had his yamaha 4 wheeler (moto4) and I had my polaris sport. He was able to go threw as much mud as we could. Boy that thing took a beating!! He is 6'3" about 325lbs looks like a ape on a trike!!!

 

My experience with these 3 wheelers are 1 week so help me out on how do i drain my oil. Taikuu (thank you). I also have Facebook, and Instagram i follow Yamaha 200E Shaft pages. Where else can i get a set of tires aslo?
