Default Changed the oil on my C50T last night (600miles)

I talked to my dealer about the valve check/adjustment. He said that they do not do it until the next service. He said the same about the final drive grease. So I set off to do my first service myself. I bought the Wix filter and got one of the metal cap type wrenches that fits over the end for removal and installation. Little did I know that the existing filter is not the same size as the Wix filter. I wound up driving a screw driver into the filter to twist it off. Oh well, at least my wrench will fit the wix.
