We demonstrate how to properly change your engine oil and oil filter on a 2018 Suzuki RMZ450 Dirt Bike. The same process can be followed for model years 2008-2018 RMZ450's. Suzuki recommends that you are changing out the engine oil every 6 hours of operation. Always refer to your service manual for proper torque specs and oil capacity for each bike model you're working on. Rocky Mountain ATV/MC stocks all the engine oil and the tools to do the job right.

One other step I like to do (it usually allows a little more oil to drain:
With drain plug removed, hold kill switch and kick engine 3 times.
*jcbenson01* Thanks for the tip!
Don’t you think it’s probably bad for your motor to be kicking it over without oil in it?
Chris Davies not at all. If you were to start it, yes, absolutely. But just to kick it and rotate a few times will not hurt a thing. The bearings are already lubricated and won’t be spun enough to build up heat and wash the oil out. It’s a step included in the factory service manual.
I do that with my rmz, it actually makes your oil look newer next time your draining it because the clean oil isn’t mixed with dirty oil
God damn might as well replace the whole engine every oil change.
That is a lot of work, parts & details for a routine oil change.No wonder 2 stroke riders don't like these.& no frgn dipstick or easy way to check level!
awesome and thorough video! Great tip with the hinson clutch as well.
Dustin, your videoes are well made and fun to watch and learn!
Thank you!!

@Stephen Yehuda It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account !
Thanks for the Instructions❤
Got about 4hrs on my new 2020 rmz450. This video is gonna be super helpful when changing my oil here. Forgot to get a gasket for left side cover. So ill have to wait to clean out the one screen.
More video like this thanks. Very helpful
So glad i bought a 2018 pack rmz450 . I need that clutch cover.
Great bike choice! I get a new machine every 3yrs. My used bikes are pristine. Lately been RMZ250 or YZ250F . Tho im becoming a Suzuki guy I think! Always loved the yellow bikes. '94 RM125 was 1st Zook. Great machine. #Supportthesport #Suzuki #Ford
This may seem like alot but if you follow these steps you will see 300 hours out of your rm450 without touching a thing
That's awesome! Looks like i'll get a lot of hours out of mine. Simple maintenance is overlooked way too often. Thanks for the comment, vevohoeyo (interesting name).~Chase
Agreed! 👍 . Its indeed all bout maintenance. What 4- stroke oil do you run ..recommend? How many hrs before changing? Thanks. - Ohio
Does anyone knows if the magnet in the strainer came on later models? Ive got a 2010 rmz450, and there is no magnet in my strainer? And my service manual doesnt show any magnet
i would put a magnet in there
Just did my 2010 rmz 450 and the one oil screen behind the shifter I had no magnet or clips inside, is this normal? I can’t find one with magnets online, thanks!
My goodness, I won't complain about doing a KTM ever again.
Great video dustin
The transmision works with the same motor oil or is a difrent service?
Because in honda you have to do 2 service one for motor and another one for transmision
Did you put different 6MM bolts on the Stator Cover and Clutch cover?
Good video i have 07 rmz250 when i bought the bike i change the oil and was gray color and i did the oil change again same day and come out gray color again i did it again like 3 time same day and always is gray color whay the oil come out gray color
I’ve always used OEM filters what do you guys suggest and why? Thanks in advance
Great video
Thanks *Col. Kurtz!*
That's a hell of a lot of trouble so often.... stripped out shifter in no time... weld to shaft while damaging seals is what I remember as a kid with stripped gear shift shaft... Is Honda crf450 the same hassle?
I was thinking about buy one but that's too much to do every 6 hours of riding.
Cool bike
Hey I have rmz 450 2008 would anyone know the size of the drain bolt underneath the bike.
What type of oil do you prefer to use on this rmz450. Thanks
The ecstar in the video is suzuki branded. I used it on my 20202 and then went to amsoil. I'd reccomend amsoil. Little more pricey but great oil.
Use ECSTAR R9000 Full Synthetic
It’s made for Suzuki’s
Picking oil by weight has to do with the climate you run in. I would say synthetic 5w30 or 10w-40 group IV or V .
friend how many liters of toilet yeva the rmz 450 year 205
What size snapring plyers are needed thanks.
Can someone tell me why my 2015 rmz 450 is leaking coolant from the overflow tube by radiator cap?? Help please
It's hard to say. Could be something like a bad seal or head gasket or something as simple as a bad radiator cap. You can perform a leak down test to see if it is something internal (video here: ua-cam.com/video/CC1EZCxDnLc/v-deo.html) or try to replace the coolant and get a new radiator cap to eliminate that possibility.
@@rmatvmc thank you I will check the video out and go from there.
Do you know the size of the first oil strainer screen crush washer by chance? I’m about to order the stuff for my first oil change and I want to do this at the same time.
www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/tusk-4-stroke-oil-change-kit-p?v=15950 Should be 16mm. -Charles
I just got a 07 rmz450 and I put like 1700ml of oil in it and oil still doesn’t come out of the check bolt isn’t that way too much oil? I looked it up and it says it only takes like 1250ml
Anyone know what I should do?
Are you checking it with the bike upright & level? How much oil did you have to put in it for it to come out of the check bolt hole?
When you take the middle bolt out of the stator cover is there suppose to be oil that comes out of there ?
Yup
Awesome advice i just got a 2015 rmz450, where did u get the black stick on wear protector for the frame and swing arm graphic? Bike looks great btw
www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/985/81794/Attack-Graphics-Frame-Grip-Tape pick some up!!!!!!!!
Can’t seem to find the oil change kit with all the tools on the website. Any help would be appreciated!
The first link in the description will take you to a page with the oil change kit and most of the tools used in this video!
Does that bike has transmission oil? Or the engine oil and transmission are conected(the same oil)?
These bikes do share engine and transmission oil.
What did u use to clean the oil drainer ? Just air ?
We used PJ1 contact cleaner to clean out the oil strainer screen. You can see that step at 2:24 in this video.
where can i get the oil measuring cup with the valve on it? i've looked all over rmatvmc
That is the Motion Pro Pro Funnel. You can check it out here: www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/motion-pro-pro-funnel-p
@@rmatvmc thanks! Out of stock 😞
More "how to" videos pls! Yamaha Raptor 700R mods/upgrades?..
Why removing the filler plug? Every 4T have crankcase breather, so i dont get it?
IvicaKX450 I would do it so you remember to put oil back in it. Sounds stupid but get busy and $hit happens lol
Ok , i get that
I have a rmz450,2015 is it okay if i use 10w50 oil?
Suzuki recommends 10w-40 for your motorcycle. You could run 10w-50 and most likely not notice much difference but it's always safer to go with manufacturers recommendations.
I would just have few of these so l could just change them out when l was changing my oil..
Are you sure about 8.5 ft lb on the oil pump? All three of my bolt just snapped... As if I didn't have enough to do already
Hello Friend. What brand and kind of oil do I use?
You would want to check your service manual for oil type, but I use 10W-40 per the suzuki owner's manual. You can check out our Oils page too to find many quality oils that work great. I would just use the brand of oil as the bike you have to be safe. Hope this helps.-Chase
Rocky Mountain ATV MC thank you very much my brother, for your quick response. I like your channel and the way it explains everything in the tutorial, good camera work
which oil 10w60?
We used 10W-40 for the bike in this video.
How much oil is he sainig, is it 1,2/4??
ok, understud it's 1.2 Quarts
1.13562354 liters
Get specific with tools for idiots like me please 🙏
It's not hard but c'mon removing the stator cover every 10-13 hours :{
All those years whit the same bike...
They finaly make a new one aaaand they f*ck it up.
Good JOB SUZUKI
I don’t even remove stator cover but every so often. If the lower filter isn’t bad then the top filter won’t be.
I thought the same thing when I bought my 2017 RMZ450 but it's really not that bad. If you like doing this stuff then you might actually enjoy it.
same cover hope your correct hahahahaha
Same for 2019?
Yep
What pain in the ass, should stuck with Kawis
@@CG-fj5se that really is a pain in the ass so much better extra work to change oil
@@rodneyburke2202 riding gas gas 450 now.. piece of cake 👍
@@CG-fj5se I'm about to sell my 19. You like that gas gas? If I'm going to buy a 10k 450 I want it to be massively better than my RMZ. I can get a 22 RMZ 450 for 7k out the door. Paid 6800 for my 19 brand new as a leftover in spring of 2020
and i thought owning a honda 450 and having 2 different oils was annoying, nevermind.
Oof i just bought a 06 450
👍👍👍👍👍🎄🏍👍👍👍👍👍
U don’t need to replace the gasket just to change oil ur ripping people off
You can not replace the magneto cover gasket if it's in good shape and you're comfortable doing so, but the Suzuki manual does recommend to change the gasket with every oil change.
Dude says :screens stay pretty clean don't need to do it every oil change , will check it to show you how to do it .
*Pulls out the dirtiest screen he's ever seen*
