There are two drainage bolts like on the 400ex.....one under the oil reservoir and one under the engine, I believe on the right side (as you are sitting on the quad)at the bottom of the engine case. As for which side the oil filter is on, I am pretty sure it's the left side above the sprocket......but I am not 100% positive - there are 3 bolts that hold it in and one is an allen. Hope that helps a little!

You need to remove the stock skid plate to get at the other bolt ..... it's under there somewhere . The cap for the filter is on the right hand side , from what I remember when i did my last oil change . It looks kind of oval .
