hi my friend, i hope you doing ok. I just finally got my 2022 grey ruckus delivered home on tuesday :) im about to change the oil this week as im sitting on 80 miles right now. Everything feels good beside that i didnt do the break in, too many up and down hills to commute to work, im sure i will see some metal residual on the oil change. thx again for yours pasts replies and be safe bye
I fashioned a tool for the oil screen... I put an extender on a 17mm socket and the used a vice grip on the end of the extender so I could grab it past the hose.
Try some locking pliers, apply a strong good grip before giving any rotation. I would order another oil cap and have it on hand to exchange it once you have it out.
Thx for the video bud :) I will do as you mentioned. I’m planning to use a measure cup for the drain oil to see the number on it and another measure cup for the new one so I can add the exact amount you said or 400ml. I never change oil before so I don’t know what procedure you do with the old oil fluid. I’m guessing you take it somewhere to be recycled? If yes how much you pay etc. thx again on the quick response and video. Take care
@@seatosummit96 notated 😈thx bud. On a different conversation. How do you keep your scooter clean? I’m guessing with a wet towel or wipes? I’m afraid with a direct house or water pressure it might damage or malfunction some parts etc. I like to keep my stuff clean to avoid any future issues. See ya later
@@jdoe787 for the first oil change I used Hondas oem oil GN4 10w 30, but just did another change ,and used Mobil 1 Motorcycle Oil 10W 40 ,and I think that's what I'm going to run from now on.
Very detailed explanation
Thank you. Excellent video. Just did mine today:)

Thanks for the video like on ur other video like i said i know nothing about scooters but i am interested in this so this is very informative 👍🏼
Why didn’t you torque the plugs to specs?
My oil cap that holds the screen and Spring in is stripped. Any suggestions for taking it off?

"Add a little bit and check" ... Or you can just refer to the built-in level indicator on the side of the oil container...if you're a rebel.
Thanks

The sweet spot for oil is 600ml that's usually right at half. As far as disposal most auto parts stores will recycle it for free.

@@Julio-bc7pj you can wash the ruckus just like any other motorcycle. I use a wax and dry spray from “turtle wax” and a microfiber towel to dry it.
@@hy3ridmedia279 excellent thx. Notated, this is my only motorcycle :) or scooter
@@Julio-bc7pj welcome to the cult!🤘
I accidently used an oil specific to ATVs, am I gonna blow up?
Valvoline ATV motor oil 10w40
Would you recommend a Full synthetic oil for the Ruckus? If so what brand and type? Thanks 🙏🏼
I personally run Mobil 1 10w 40 Full Synthetic Motorcycle Oil
Actually your service manual says screw in dipstick to check ........ your potentially over filling it. Good luck with future service.
Sadly that is wrong. You do not screw in the dipstick when checking level per owners manual Page 59.
👍👍
What year is this?
2020 but will be the same for most year Ruckus with the stock engine
Is there a Full Synthetic oil that you would recommend? Thanks

Thanks, appreciate your videos for us new Ruckus owners 🙏🏼
