Oil
Change Time for the Intruder
Helpful hints and
entertainment from the Intruder Alert group
To aid in the never ending quest for lower cost aftermarket
"stuff" for our bikes, here is a list of available oil
filters which are said to fit the Intruder 1400 and 1500 series
bikes.
If you know of others, feel free to e-mail me with the
information and I will add it to the list.
Many thanks to whomever did the research (I'm just the Library).
Oil Filters for Suzuki Intruder |

K & N Powersports Oil Filter Part# KN-138 for the Black KN-138C for Chrome. (The K&N has a 17mm hex nut on the end so no special oil filter wrench is required.) |
Note- JC Whitney filters are said to be EMGO
and EMGO are said to make Suzuki OEM filters. They look
identical, with a "O" ring instead of a flat gasket
surface, however, the JCW models call for changing every 1500
miles instead of the usual 3000, so take that into consideration.
Also, JC Whitney part numbers change with every new catalog, so
at least part of the listed item number may be different in your
current catalog.

Oil Change Tips for the LC:
1.) The oil fill cap on the LC is located behind the right side
rear chrome engine cover. Remove the two 4mm Allen head screws to
remove the cover. Be sure that all the rubber bumpers and metal
washers come off with the cover, or you'll find them later in
your crankcase!
2.) The LC has what appears to be an oil drain plug near the oil
filter. this plug is an oil pressure diagnostic plug and should
not be used for draining oil. Use the one near the rear of the
pan.
3.) Once the oil filter and plug are removed, allow the bike to
drain for a half hour if time permits. This will aid in draining
the trapped oil from the oil cooler.
4.) The book calls for 4.5 quarts, but don't expect to get that
much in there. Always go by the upper level mark in the sight
glass. Overfilling will cause oil blowby to enter the airbox.
What's the best oil to use?:
I firmly believe clean oil is good for a bike, the rest
is up to the rider. :-)
If you keep clean oil in your bike, no matter what brand, it will
likely tear up from something else.
