Great video! Do you have a video on the oil pressure gauge install and where you bought your gauge and parts from. Thanks
Thanks, I do not but I'll check my old emails and my parts and I'll make up a short episode on it. If I remember correctly it was fairly cheep to do.
Excellent videos. Keep up the good work.
Thanks !!! And thanks for the watch as well 👍
Should replace the crush washer on each plug... Cheap and won't ever leak.
Not a bad idea I have spairs, I inspect them before reinstalling, this style is very robust with a bit of oil for lubrication the rubber won't tare , they have 145000km on them and look good and don't drip a drop yet 👍
I can't get the oil plug bolt to break loose I've been on it for hours. I think he is the only answer unfortunately now I have to stop for family stuff today. Do you have any any more ideas
Could try spraying some penetrating oil on it but I don't think that will do much but , at this point I would try anything, could try some heat to like you were thinking . Never seen one that hard to come out
If the bike requires 4 liters of oil and you put in 4 liters of oil why would you have to check the level ??????
Thanks for watching, and should always double check , maybe all the old oil didn't come out and your level is way too high, or the level is low and needs more , just good practice to always double check just to ensure the level is 100% correct 👍
Hey how you doing it's been awhile since I spoke to you having a problem changing my oil I can't get the front left oil plug to come undone and I'm using a 17 mm wrench and I cannot get that thing to budge and I don't want to cause a problem what can I do
Hey been a long time , everything all good with the family ? Did you end up looking into your balance/steering issue ? If so what did you find ? Where the steering knuckle bearings ok ?
And I would grab a small ball pean Hamer (or any hammer ) and try a few light hammers on the end of the wrench in the loosening direction , if that doesn't work try hitting it a little harder , I've had that issue and that has always worked for me , have the closed end of the wrench on the plug so it dose not slip and strip the bolt head
@@ClargoGarage I think the dealership when they did it the last time use a threadlocker on it, that's what I'm thinking. Maybe it's my tools I don't know or maybe possibly me I'm not the greatest but I can't get a closed in wrench with the available space there to get over the bolt I was wondering if it was okay if I put a little bit of heat on that. What do you think ?
@jonprain412 heat would be my last resort, and if you do halfto not to much just incase it causes other problems or burns wiring , there's for sure horn wiring in that area and Maybe a sensor wire, can't remember , can you get a 2x4 or something under the kickstand ? Would give you abit more room to work and get the wrench in . They shouldn't of put lock tight on there .
@ClargoGarage thank you so much, you're the best!
Did it work with abit more room ?
