 Look under the engine, you'll see a large nut, 21mm if my memory serves me right. Put the bike on it's side stand, put something soft on the ground and slowly and gently tip the bike over to it's side then continue to flip the bike over onto it's handlebars. You can use some wood or straps at this point to hold it steady but it 'should' balance quite well with the bars and seat. Now you have easy access to that nut, take it off and put in the approximate amount of oil you need then simply flip the bike back over. Oh, don't forget to drain the tank or you'll spill some gas.Rob

 Use some penetrating oil so you don't strip the threads on the oil bolt.Originally posted by azr View PostLook under the engine, you'll see a large nut, 21mm if my memory serves me right.

 yes on some channel locks or vice grips to unscrew the oil fill cap. If the threads are all jacked its time for new clutch cover with an oil cap already in it from a member here or Ebay.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
