Must of the 10w40 and above weight oils do not have the energy conserving label on them, I do not believe the Mobil One has it over 10W30. I have let the dealer change my oil,(only oNce new bike) has anyone have any problem with the torx bolt on the oil drain???? I tried loosing it up and it was extremely hard and I was affraid to damage the head so I was planning to take it back to the dealer.

If you look at the manual, it says to use the drain plug on the left and they even have a picture of the plug. (2000 Grizzly) However, I just found out that there is a 19MM bolt with spring, strainer and oil intake on the center that can be removed to change the oil. Maybe I was looking at the graphis wrong but anyone out there with a 2000 look at your manuals and tell me where is the drain plug. Maybe I just can not read the manual.
