I change the oil on my wife virago every spring. I use a bike jack to lift it up off the ground and put a drip pan under the bike with a screen on it to catch the screws and bolts I ALWAYS manage to drop. I can get it done in about 25 to 30 minutes. I agree about what kind of jack %!¤would put a filter in a spot where you have to take the dang bike apart to change it.
