can someone lay out the process of changing the oil on a 99 Shadow 1100?
ive never changed the oil on a bike before and i dont wanna fuck anything up. so anyhelp would be nice. online manuals or anything of the sort would be kick ass.
i dont have a bike lift either so ways to do it without that would be best.
thank you and forgive my nubness. paying retarded ammounts for a dealership to do it doesnt sit right right me.

You could always buy the service manual. But then again that is expensive sometimes too.
I hear you can get a bike lift at Sam's Club for 60 bucks. My friend bought one.
Sorry i can't help you more, but I don't change my oil myself right now. So i haven't learned yet either.
