For the Oil ? It''s right on the bottom of the engine. Kind of the rear center of the oil pan. Fairly large bolt if I recall correctly.

Its on the water pump, you have to remove the left hand fairing to get to it.

According to the manual there are 3 mounting bolts and 1 drain bolt, the 3 mounting bolts attach around the flange of the pump and there is 1 bolt that is on a raised area of the pump, crack that open and see what happens. I was considering changing the fluid in mine and had a quick look with the fairings off, I did not undo the bolt to see if it did drain. If it does not drain from that bolt you could just loosen all the flange bolts and let it drain out that way.

Be aware that when you open the drain bolt not much seems to come out. But then you open the radiator cap and it comes out the drain hole like it just drank a sixpak.
