Silverwing, I doubt if your tool kit will have the drain plug tool. usually all they have is screwdriver and maybe a spark plug wrench. Part number for oil filter on my 09 is 15410-MFJ-D01. Probably the same as yours. It is a standard Honda oil filter used on many of their models.

I saw 6 to 7 tools in the tool kit. One even looked like an oil filter wrench. I wonder if the former owner added some tools.

I just took a look at the tool kit and looked under the bike. it's been sitting on one spot for two weeks and only now do i see it's leaking a little oil on the under side.

I will probably have the dealer do the first oil change with instructions to see if he can find out why it's leaking oil and fix the problem.

I asked if they checked the bike out mechanically before I bought it and they said just the basics. I'd think an oil leak should have been disclosed. What do you guys think?

My Scoot has just had it's 4000 mile service and the technician (they used to be mechanics to us older folk !) gave me some advice about the sump drain plug. He said always to use a socket for replacing so that a torque wrench can be used and he warned me about the low value of the setting. One useful piece of info. was to look for impact sockets as they are usually six pointers, I suspect that they are the ones with the black finish instead of plating.

While truly black oil is not good, as long as you are following specs oil in the engine will get darker than in the can . that does not call for an early change
