Simple servicing the Liberty is not a challenge most days.
This morning I set a personal record for screwing up a simple oil & filter change.
Oil spilled 3 X~!
Forgetting the screen behind the drain-plug, X 1.
Losing the new drain 0-ring, X 1.
and none involved the refilling process into the micro-fill hole - which is usually the most entertaining part!
Not a lot of room under there...
Channel locks works the filter.
A shorty 24mm socket does the drain plug.
Looking forward to a dawn ride tomorrow. 47°F, 90% rain and 20mph headwinds. But it's the best chance for decent temps I've had in 2 weeks.
Should be exciting.....water-proofing my gloves tonight - taking the best headlight (Liberty) for the expected storm debris in the roads.

*I did take what oil I could re-capture to the recycling center in town. and a new Qt of Suzuki coolant. A buck a pound.
@@ serv manual says 10,000Km between oil & filter changes. (6.2K miles) I do yearly, or every 2000 miles.

from the angle of the picture it looks like you'd need to remove the exhaust in order to get the oil filter off...that's not correct, is it??

No, not even the Italians are not that mean.
Plenty of room to slip it up there and spin it on.
Might pick your Honda brain after get home.
