Well, I'm not actually a newbie, but I am doing my first oil change on my R100RT after 5 years. To make a long story short, I sold the bike 5 years ago, and now I bought it back, so I am doing my first oil change.
My R100RT dates to the early '90s. The R100RT has some kind of oil send/return unit instead of a simple oil filter cover plate, like on earlier models. When I removed the cover, I found a white silicon rubber o-ring between the sender unit and the engine case, but no paper gasket. Anyone know if there is supposed to be a paper gasket there?
