One small tip for you the next time you do an oil & filter change, before fitting the new oil filter, pre fill the filter with oil & then fit it, your oil pump will love you for it, because, if you do not pre fill it, the pump has to fill it & subsequently, you are getting less oil to your top end for a short time, other than that, you done a perfect job :)
Very good, something i need to do myself soon. Maybe you should have pointed out it will need a further top up after the engine has run, due to filling the empty filter with oil
If you don't have an oil filter wrench and you can't get the filter off, get a hammer and screwdriver. Hit the screwdriver right through the side of the filter and use the leverage of the screwdriver to twist it off. Might have to knock a few holes in but it works 100%
A couple tips. Don't remove the oil filler plug until you have taken the drain plug out. It will slow down that rush of oil that comes out. Try not to drop the bolt in your collection bucket. You can get contamination on the threads that will make you cry later. Great video. How do you find your 2002 gsf600? I'm debating buying one with 9000km on it.
No problems guys, i had planned to do a whole host of videos detailing how to do different things to the Bandit as it's such an easy bike to work on, but i had to sell mine to fund something else! This was my first ever attempy at an oil change of any kind on an vehicle, do as Graham & OGenduro said & top up after you've run it a bit (i did this but forgot to put it in the video) & try not drop the oil filler bolt into the old oil!
A quid is a slang term for a £1, kind of like you US guys will say a 'buck' instead of a Dollar, for instance, a beer is 3 quid (meaning £3) a bear is 3 bucks (meaning $3). :)

Nice post! You did replace the washer on the sump bolt didn't you?
Any difference between this and 07 fuel injected? Thanks for vid !
Thanks. Great help.
cool!!! just to be clear, (i didn't catch it), you fill it up with new oil until the level is bitween L and F, and just close with the lid?
