Great video. I love how you aren't afraid to tear into your bikes. Great patience and mechanical skills.
Good to hear from you sir, thanks for watching.. :)
Another excellent video. Always a journey.
Thanks for watching sir... :)
Thank you for all you do. I have the same bike and always feel better with seeing what to expect. Give's me the confidence to tackle the jobs seeing it first.
Good to hear from you sir, thanks for watching... :)
Wow I think you might’ve talked me into buying one of these after seeing your videos. Probably want a set of T-handle Allen drivers on that bike.
Good video. I can't wait for the next video.
Great to hear form you sir... Thanks for watching... :)
I am so glad I found your channel. I have learned so much from you!
Thanks for watching sir... :)
So am I.👍
Just barely got 2000 kms on this bike before the snow fell and after changing the air filter on my wing I’m relieved that doing basic maintenance on this one will be a lot easier. As for thé panels to get to the plugs and valve clearance checks it sucks. I regret selling my 93 R100GS … easiest bike to work on and it never let me down. Big thanks for this video!!
Great video ♥
Great video. Thanks for showing how to remove the plastic.
Good to hear from you again sir... thanks for watching... :)
thanks...just changed out radiator fluid wasn't bad...every bike I have owned had their own quirks....
Thanks mate. Great video
Thanks for watching sir... :)
Excelente informe
Es la moto de mis sueños

Good to hear from you sir, thanks for watching... :)
Jeez man that was a brilliant video, all you need are some little Chinese hands and some little Chinese fingers as well as the right tools. My word, what a job you did. Well done.
Thanks for sharing this! I ordered some aftermarket foot pegs for mine and hoping the “KTM 790 Adventure” set will fit my bike. Great bike also have some Rox Anti vibration risers, and some genuine BarkBusters on order!
Complicated panel construction aside it all looks good quality and well built under there
Hi John, thanks for your video.
I do not need all the modern electronics inside the bike. When I see how complicated todays modern bikes are, I will keep my old suzuki v-strom 650.. which has simple construction and with all your video-tutorial is easy to maintain it almost by my self 😊. Even if is simple, it makes lot of fun..👍. Thanks sir.
Good to hear from you sir, thanks for watching.. :)
Great work Sir!!! 👏 I think I would be terrified in doing what u did on my own😂. U r brave😅. Cheers!!!!💪
Thanks for watching sir... :)
Seems the service guys didn’t do a design review on the spark plug change. Chuckled at your comment to keep it family friendly! 😂
Thanks for watching sir... :)
😂👍
"Getting the fairing back on will not be appropriate content.....LOL!!!!
A few thousands screws for the tupperware and a STEEL tank I see where it gets it's weight from....AYE CARUMBA!
Looked pretty clean underneath so hopefully you don't have to do this chore too often. I'm appreciating my BMW K1200RS more now....Thanks!
😂👍
Hello John, Thank you for sharing how to remove the spark plugs on CFMOTO Ibex 800T. Man, they really use a lot of screws and bolts to hold those plastic panels, gas tank cover, etc, just to get to those spark plugs. Being an adventure bike, I guess CFMOTO doesn't want any parts coming loose or rattle at all. Regarding the installation of the spark plugs, I don't know if you applied some but I'd like to suggest to coat a little anti-seize on the spark plugs for easier removal next time. A must on the aluminum heads. Also instead of using grease to lube the rubber coil seal use a Dielectric grease. Many greases aren't compatible with certain types of rubber, which can cause seals to swell or crack and lead to damage and down-time.
👍
Thank You for sharing John, I highly appreciate of what You share..
Did You also do for others bike such Triumph T900? If any, will you posted to your channel here,,
Thank you..
Hello there sir, good to hear from you. I do not have any service videos on a Tiger 900. I do have a 2019 Tiger 800XCx and there are plenty of service videos on it as well as several other bikes that I have owned over the years. You can access any of these videos buy simply going to my channel page and clicking on the videos tab. You can type in a bike model in the search bar as well to get the videos on a specific bike (ie Tiger, FJR,V-Strom,Versys. Thanks for watching... keep safe out there... :)
You don’t need to use that much grease it’s not gonna hurt but you can spray filter oil on the seal and itl do the same thing and ease of cleanup.
Tried to work on my bike and ladies and gentleman, my bike can no longer start 😂
Did you find out the answer why the bike did not want to start back up? May help anyone who might run into the same problem.
Un grand merci pour cette vidéo didactique. Ta procédure de démontage méthodique, claire et précise sera utile aux possesseurs de cette moto qui voudront se charger eux-mêmes de son entretien. En revanche, que de plastiques et de vis à retirer pour enfin accéder à la bougie. Je n’aimerais pas avoir un problème de bougie lors d’un road trip !
Heureux d'avoir de vos nouvelles, monsieur... merci d'avoir regardé... :)
Genial saludos cordiales desde Patagonia Chile
Good to hear form you sir.. thanks for watching.. :)
Just the vifeo I needed to see. I just bought one and was afrsid the plastic removal would be way worse than my traded vstrom 650. What will be the next video about?
Hey there sir, good to hear from you.. Congrats on your new bike. I will be servicing the steering head bearings on the Ibex before I put the plastics back on the bike.... thanks for watching... keep safe out there... :)
You are the mechanics' mechanic !! You made another excellent detailed video..... After watching, I would not buy this bike as I feel this is a maintenance nightmare..... Waaayyy too many nuts & bolts to be removed for basic tasks !!!
My back is hurtin' just watching it... 😔
You do excellent work and I appreciate your abilities..... Keep 'em coming John, stay well !!! 😊👍
This is not an easy bike to work on for the home DIY mechanic,there is way too many complicated panels & screws to remove in some kind of sequence just to access the engine. I was interested in this machine to replace my Honda NC750X but I do all my servicing at home & this is way too complicated & time consuming for me. Sorry CF Moto but your off the short list now.
@@johndavy8801...... Couldn't agree more John !
Relax.... Kick back and have a Happy Thanksgiving !! 😉👍
@@brianc.ditrich8401 Thanks for the support Brian as it’s much appreciated. The weather here in the UK is very damp & chilly so no riding for me now. I hope it’s much better where you are & a very Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours.
NOTE this is not a Brit bike, maintenance only required after a full season or 10k miles. Just ride , no pfafaling around in the garage with a cuppa and a pipe
@@johndavy8801could u please share with us ur shirt list,cause i d like to see from other peoples percpective other such as the 800mt choices.
Personally even if i could afford a 1250gs,wont go there cause its too heavy and bulky for me.
Ktm 790 is also expensive for me,i could see the tracer 700 of yamaha but i think its only for road.
Triumph 900 is also expensive(as all europeans).
I consider 750 transalp a good choice.
I thought that cf moto 800 mt explorer is the most value for money and in black colour i love it.
Im about to purchase an MT Explore 800 i will be fitting dash cam etc so i will need a switched positive live connection where would be the best place to find it on the bike Tha camera load would be below 1 amp Id appreciate your advice sir
Hi John, I'm in the Northwest Arkansas area somewhat close to you. Where did you get this bike? I haven't seen a CFMOTO dealer anywhere up here.
Hello there sir, good to hear from you. I purchased my bike in Rolla Missouri but there are dealers closer to you. Go to "cfmotousa.com" and click on the "find a dealer" tab, put in your zip code and it will show you where the dealers are in your area. However not all CFMOTO dealers have motorcycles... some just carry ATV's. Go to the dealer websites and make sure they carry motorcycles.. The dealer in Harrison does not but the one in Tulsa does... thanks for watching sir... :)
Cold,icy roads? Out you go mate Ozark dudes gone soft?
What's the easiest way to get the 12v plug out? I want to hardwire my Zumo XT2 to the 12v plug.
Does the bottom of the air filter cover have a gasket or anything to stop air from being sucked in ?
Thanks for making this video 👍
Hello there sir... good to hear from you. No gasket on the cover door itself... anything that gets in around the door is still on the intake side of the air box the same as the intake air and has to pass through the filter to get in the engine... thanks for watching sir... :)
@@ozarksbackroads5484 thank you for responding so fast. I heard you mention the airbox cover helps hold the filter in place , so that makes sense .
I'm leery of oiled filters contaminating the maf sensor..great on older bikes, lawnmowers and chainsaws...but I wouldnt do it for the small gain in hp on anything valuable without knowing for sure..
Wow, that disassembly is wild
Worse than my old Vstrom !
good to hear from you sir, yes there is a lot there to remove... thanks for watching... :)
If I did that it would never go back together!
Hello there sir... It helps if you make a video that you can watch when it is time to reassemble... :)
@@ozarksbackroads5484😂😂😂
once you got the sheetmetal screws out of the silver side panel, did you just pull on the panel to get it to come off.. how much force did it take to get the panels clips to release
Good to hear from you sir, My panel popped right off easily once all the screws were removed.... :)
@@ozarksbackroads5484 i missed the screws that are under and inside the hole where the crashbars slide in at the top , they are hard to see.. ill be servicing the swingarm bearings next. mine only has a couple hundred miles on it but maybe if i catch them early they will last a bit longer. the ktm swing arms are better quality because there are more needle bearings to spread the force out more, and keep from scarring the races, but wheel see ... thank you for the help, i just could not find that one last screw on each side LOL.. happy riding
Yikes. that is a lot of work for some plugs. Think I'll keep my 96 Honda Nighthawk.
Does it look like the valve cover can come off with this amount of disassembly or does more have to come off?
Good to hear from you sir, there are a few items on top of the head that will have to be moved out of the way and a piece of plastic in front of the heads but not much... should not be much of an issue. I think the valve cover will come off pretty easily once the tank is off... Thanks for watching... :)
@@ozarksbackroads5484 great videos, used to be a Ducati certified technican doing a valve inspection on this looks easy compared to the multistrada.
Hello there sir, good to hear from you. I imagine doing a Ducati would be on a whole nother level... thanks for watching... :)@@isaacm12
Thanks but no thanks...it may be a fantastic value, but I just could not imagine trying to fix a little problem in a motel parking lot😪
Thats why garage bills are so dear. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
What size is the front axle allen key?
12mm... :)
@ozarksbackroads5484 thanks for your quick reply!
@ozarksbackroads5484 okay I had the hardest time getting the rear wheel back on. I was having the hardest time fitting the spacer and brake assembly. It was such a pain! Any tips? Tricks? I was just using my center stand. Does having the wheel barely just supported by the ground help??
Hello there, good to hear from you sir, sorry to hear you had a hard time. If you were trying to lift the rear wheel into place I imagine that you had a hard time indeed. It is much easier to let the tire sit on the ground and adjust the height of the motorcycle with a screw lift or jack under the center of the bike.. hope you got it all back together ok... thanks for watching... :)@@AdventurePlusOne
@ozarksbackroads5484 after many swear words I finally got it back together with my new knobby tires. Can't wait to ride! I'll have to invest in some better equipment like you have. Haha thanks for the vids.
It’s ridiculous to have to go through this to do basic maintenance. Leave off all the pretty gingerbread plastic panels and pass the savings onto the customers.
Panels are part of temp regulating system,all so help keep heat away from riders
Absolutely awesome video. You need a TIP button on here. I actually looked planning on sending you one. I’ll check back
I bought the Throttle Punks ABS cancel switch and I have to remove the tank to install it.
Thanks for watching.. :)
When I installed the top shelter, I noticed if I loosen the handle bar and rotate it up and forward it made installing the top shelter much easier.
Great video mate! 👍🏻👌🏻
I just wish there was someone like you that made a video like this a year ago about the BMW G310 GS.😅
It took me about a week or so to figure out how to take apart the headlamp-section and install a USB-charger.💡🛠️🔧🪛🔌
Good to hear from you sir, Glad to see you got it all worked out... thanks for watching.. keep safe out there... :)
Looks to me like a pain in the ass motorbike to work on
