First Motorcycle, Changing fluids?


Hello, i just bought my first motorcycle. Its an 84' Honda vf700s, 4 cylinder liquid cooled. I was advised by the previous owner to change the fluids before i tried to ride it, because it sat for 2 years. I work on cars for a living, however have never owned or worked on a bike. I probably sound really stupid, but gotta learn some how right? I found the oil filter, dip stick & drain. There is another cap, im not sure if its the oil filler?
