Service manual shows proper procedure on page 1-21.

Remove cap on resivoir

disconnect hose at bottom of pump.

capacity is 1.1 qts or 1L

If you're going to do this yourself (why would you change fluid on a one year old bike?), you really need to get the shop manual and follow the procedure to the letter.  It's not just a simple drain the old and dump in the new, then ride off into the sunset.  You need to purge ALL the air out of the system before you do the sunset ride, for one thing.
