Hi

I want to change the oil on my Monster 659. Does anyone know, or know where I can find out, the correct torque value for the oil drain plug and the oil screen filter plug?

Thanks

you're welcome . .. I know a guy that knows a guy that knows a thing or two . . .

if you're loosening the one with the 5mm allen use 17Nm if you loosen the larger one use 22Nm as for the "pre-filter" or strainer, use "ok, its there" and for the plug itself use 17Nm . . . I avg'd both values to 17Nm since that is what I personally do, because the guy that knows the guy that I know, told me . . .

Carlos is being somewhat modest red! He's a Ducati Service Manager and longtime Ducati tech in Panama!

He's a very handy bloke to know! ðŸ'ðŸ»ðŸ'ðŸ»
