    Searching for a manual to download but in the meantime. Where do I put the oil in? On the right hand side there is a plug I can take off, is that it? Sorry, just bought this rebuilt bike and trying to find all the components and feel I need to change the oil. I at least no how to ride now. Wow, found the battery. I am so new to bikes but like them!

    for the manual go to Yamaha they can order a new factory manual for you and I also have a Haynes I think the other one is Clymer. I have a factory and a haynes. I have a Maxim, yes the plug on the rightside is the oil fill and down at the bottom same side is the oil level window bike needs to be on the center stand or somebody holding it straight up and all I can say is read everything on here and ask all questions there are no stupid questions good luck

    I found it and the oil level is max. I have oil dripping from below but I noticed that there is alot of old oil on the bottom and seems to heat up and drip off. Gotta clean it good and see if there are any leaks. Is it okay to use a power washer to spray the underside of the bike?

    Not really; use a citris-based engine cleaner on a COLD motor; and flush it off with lots of LOW PRESSURE water, like from your garden hose. A pressure washer can drive water INTO the motor, not a good thing.
