Hey buddy nice job.. But can u please attach the images as thumbnails?? Since you have linked the images from orkut, most of us including me could not access orkut on our PC's so none of the images are visible on this thread.
Thanks for the efforts.

Yes. For any type of vehicle. A dirty filter restricts oil flow.

Go with the manufacturer recommendation. Mostly the oil filter is suggested to be changed at every oil change.

An exclusion I have seen so far is the R15 - recommended oil filter replacement interval is 10K KMs.

i wanted to post the same but changed my mind after thinking how many people actually service their own bike .anyways nice to see that someone did it.
some points which the kind person who posted this might have missed out

-engine oil filter is to be changed every 10000kms only for the fz16/fazer(manual).

-the tools given in the bike toolkit is not enough for this job,dont use the
given spanners and strip the nuts as i did ,same applies to the main bolt .
please BUY a complete tool kit.

-bike engine has to be super hot for all the oil to drain out,so it means the oil coming out will also be super hot,so plz use good gloves or you will get burnt BADLY.

-lastly read the manual thoroughly before doing any of this .

i have already completed the first 3 services myself.if some one requests here i will do the airfilter clean and spark plug service and rear brake change post.

What abt the bolts tightness?how tight should it be when not using a torque wrench?
