Damn!! The bike looks so clean, please make a video on cleaning and maintaining the motorcycle this clean, I am taking delivery of Kamet white this weekend 😉🙌🏼
Hello, Ben! I follow you on UA-cam and love your videos; I really appreciate your passion. I have a 2021 Himalayan, still completely stock, and I’m thinking about making some modifications. Considering that I use the bike both in the city and for traveling on high-speed roads, and I also want to do a bit of light enduro, my goal is to improve it to have a cruising speed around 100 km/h without feeling too many vibrations and keeping the RPMs a bit lower if possible. Do you think that by changing the air filter to a BMC/DNA and using a more open exhaust terminal, I can achieve this result? I wouldn’t want to lengthen the gear ratios since it would then be a problem for enduro and steeper climbs. I hope you’ll respond. Thanks.
I have a RE Himalayan 411 BS6. Fed up of the RE Oil that they put in. Not touring on the bike, or off roading. Ocassional Sunday Rides and Home to Office thats it. Which oil would you recommend?
Hey ben, I own a Himalayan 411. Im a bit skeptical about the engine oil change period. RE suggests to change the oil every 10k KMs but they are using a semi syntethic oil (liqui gun) and we know semi synthetic hardly last 2-2.5k KMs. This time i change the Liquid gun oil at 1.8k KMs and changed it to Liqui Moly 10w-50 (same grade as suggested by RE) full synthetic.
Hi Ben !! Regularly watch your vedios . I own a scram 411. While i was riding the horn automatically stopped working ..what could be the reason ? Is it repairable or do i need to get a new one ? Could you please share link if possible ?
Hey, thanks for the video.. what about the O rings? should have changed them as well.. anyways better than visiting a service center. 😂😂. They do a crapy job anyways..
@@ONTWOWHEELSBEN I saw the whole video. In the video, you mentioned that you ran the engine, and then cooled it. Let it cool down for 20 minutes. But what I am trying to get at, is you need to change the oil when it is warm! The correct way of doing it is going for a good ride of 50+ KM, having hit 3/4 rev on the meter, and coming back. Let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes and then drain it at an optimum temperature of 60 to 70°. So that all the sludge particles and the impurities are still in mix and not resting somewhere in the engine. I am consulting you as an automotive engineer, please don't take it as a criticism, rather than feedback.
Most of the authorised service center mechanics especially motorcycles( in my case yamaha ) are idiots don't know how to use specific tools to do each work very pathetic ... most of the basic works i am doing in my home by me itself !!😅✌️
Thank You for Your service to the DIY community
❤️
Gud Job Brother!!!
great tips! Thanks so much.
Glad it was helpful!
always run the engine before the oil change!

Thanks!
agree the oil fill Bolt should be enough little thighs than a thumb tight.
Is fully synthetic good to everyday commuting Himalayan
waiting for the review of the oil
What did you do with the waste oil? I always wonder that, thats why never did it myself.
😊
Hi Brother, How is the Fully Synthetic oil performing?
🎉
Even shell 10w50 long ride fully synthetic oil is very good
Didn't it void warranty
😮
Can you please mention the cordless tool model you are using and how is it performing. Thank you
It’s a low torque Chinese model . Not an impact driver .
Manual states semi-synth oil only, This is fully synthetic
better but always swap after the bike has run atleast 2000 kms .
@@ONTWOWHEELSBEN My himi ran about 2.6 k kms now . Can I change now or is it okay if I change it after 5k at service centre?
Are u and leu related😅? I thought he was you😂

@@ONTWOWHEELSBEN Thanks a lot Buddy 🙏🏻

Change every 3-4 k kilometres if ridden everyday
Any oil
what about fully synthetic oils ? The packaging suggests a change interval of 6k KMs
Hi Ben !!
Regularly watch your vedios .
I own a scram 411.
While i was riding the horn automatically stopped working ..what could be the reason ?
Is it repairable or do i need to get a new one ?
Could you please share link if possible ?
Pls get it checked by a mech . Can’t say anything without examining
Ben try 10w-50 ester oil fully synthetic on 450 worth it i tried
Reduce heat and increase smoothness!
am gonna try that on my bike . this is my friends.
Hey, thanks for the video.. what about the O rings? should have changed them as well.. anyways better than visiting a service center. 😂😂. They do a crapy job anyways..
No the o ring need not be changed .
always run to warm the engine before the oil change!
I did. Pls
Watch the video without skipping .

Why don't you use RE oil? You won't be able to claim warranty if you put other than RE oil
I don't think he's concerned about the warranty. I've also never been happier after switching from RE Oil to better aftermarket options.
Only one bottle in stock at the given link in description. Please add more reliable sources to purchase the same if known.
