owners manual?

Okay so I've purchased my first R1. (I've owned suzuki's prior) I've got an 05 R1 and am just curious to the ins and out such as:

-How do I remove the seat?
-Is the oil filter under the left side fairing?
-I'm assuming the oil pan is at the bottom

basically I'm gonna change the oil but am not sure where all the stuff is. A few minutes of poking around and I should prob find it. But I didnt wanna go trying to pry off the seat and break something.. so whats the procedure to take it off...


Also does anyone know if there is an owner's manual anywhere out there for download?

You've got 2 small bolts on the seat that hold it down, allen head type. Oil filter is on the left, plug is on the right, and yes the pan is on the bottom. Take your lower fairing off and it is pretty self explanitory.
