2015 V7 Stone

okay...

the manual talks about how to drain/refill/inspect the engine oil and how to drain/refill/inspect final drive oil(Guzzi calls transmission)

But for the life of my first born son, I cannot find how to do ANY OF the procedure on gear box oil????

Where to inspect? How to drain? What to open?!?!!

I flipped thru the manual at least 10+ times and I just can't seem to find it....and yes I searched high & low but no one else seems to have the same problem as I am...

Any help would be highly appreciated! Pictures would help greatly too!

The fill/level plug and drain plug don't need to be very tight. Snug is good enough. The sealing washer and the respective o-ring do the sealing. Where torque values aren't given or seem not correct I like to refer to what I call "wrench art". That is having a feel for how tight something should be. Not every fastener is the one that holds the bike together.
