Right side of bike at rear of paralever. Upper fill plug is 6mm Hex bit socket. Lower drain plug is directly underneath (19mm bolt). Remove both plugs.
BUT FIRST have a suitable container to catch the FD oil. Smell, look, examine plug residue, taste. Okay, don't taste it. Replace lower plug. Torque 30Nm.
Add 0.25 liter (0.26 quarts) API GL5 80W90 natural or synth. To bottom of threads.
Caution: Overfilling causes a seal failure and fluid can migrate forward into the final drive/paralever drive shaft interface area.
Retorque fill plug to 30Nm.
Clean up your mess!
