Thats alot of parts to remove to access the spark. I seen one guy reach underneath and unscrew it. No parts removal. Used supplied socket in tool kit
Hi Jet, yes of course you can do that, but what I don't like is the amount of grit, sand and dirt that gets in and around the spark plug and if you do that it will all fall into the cylinder. I like to expose it all and clean it out before taking it out. Unfortunately my factory tool kit was also missing.
You have made servicing my KLR so much easier. Thank- You!!
Thanks Jim, I am trying to get more Videos up :)
Bought a 18mm spark plug socket at Orielly's. They had two of them. One was 6 point and the other 12. The 6 point was thinner.
It was a very tight fit, but it worked.
You done well there, I looked in so many shops here in Sydney with no luck!. Thanks for watching and your comment. Ross
Thank you Bro ! It's time for me to change the spark plugs, too. Your video helped .
Hey Pamnc, now worries, thanks for watching, please remember to give the thumbs up :) I have loads more videos on the KLR. Ross
Getting a set of JIS screwdrivers will potentially avoid stripping what look like Phillips head screws. They're cheap and worth it. Enjoying the videos, BTW.
Thanks for watching and the comment :)
Those that don't want to grind down their sockets can buy a multi size spark plug tool for like $12 usd comes with all the sizes and it's super thin.
yea there are a few options, my issue is I live in Australia nothing is posted quickly standard 2-3 weeks wait, I am too impatient for that haha
Your crash bars look like my SW Motech bars. I'm glad you've got them and that they don't need removal for this job, which I'll be doing in another 3K miles or so.
Looks like you've also got a Givi box on the back. So do I. At first I had doubts after installing mine, with those Italian sprezzatura curves. But after two cross country road trips, you can sure pack alot of stuff in it!
Thanks for excellent demonstration! Only one small suggestion for future, put a bit of anti-seize on those spark plug threads.
Hi Ian, I'm not sure what ones mine were as they were on the bike when I got it. I put some BMX stunt pegs through the accessory light holes which was great for long journeys !!
@@RossPerryProductions
Stunt pegs sound like an excellent idea! I'm going to give those a try. Thanks for that idea!
@@ianmackenzie686 No worries at all. Ross
It's still a shit job to have to do on the side of the road but now with a new pepcock it stopped fouling my plugs.
Great video, thanks for posting! I have some feedback on it: I'd like to have heard why/when you should be considering changing your sparkplug, maybe a warning to protect the petcock when setting down the tank (seems obvious but worth mentioning), but most importantly I would have liked to have seen the sparkplug gap adjustment being done, that would have made it a complete tutorial and is important enough to include so someone wouldn't have search for another video on that if they're unfamiliar with how to do so. Thank you again for the post, it's super helpful!
Hi Andy, thanks for your feedback and I will take that onboard for my following videos. I typically like to change the plug every 10,000kms. Regards Ross
Or you could just use the tools it came with in the pouch. It has the spark plug socket in there.
If only the tool kit was still with my bike it would have made it so much easier !!
No Kidding!?!
Here I was, ready to grind down my spark plug socket 😂
Gonna go check out that out right now, Cheers!!!
Edit: Yup! It's in there 🔥👌🔥
@@sasquatchhillbilly your so lucky! I wish mine was still there !!
@@RossPerryProductions On the bright side, you've got a couple of higher quality sockets to use!
Couldn't figure out why my 18mm Spark Plug socket wouldn't fit the last time I tried, your video was really helpful in that regard...
Cheers 🍻!!!
@@sasquatchhillbilly No worries at all I am glad I could help
There is a spark plug remover supplied in the klr tool kit.
It's the perfect length to get in there for removel and installation.
Hi Bob yes there is, which is great if that is still with the bike, unfortunately mine was missing when I bought the bike. Ross
Some small bolts and screws can be quickly removed with a screwdriver . It saves a lot of time.
Good tip Pamnc, thanks for watching. Ross
Awesome thanks
No worries at all, thanks for watching.
Thanks. Very helpful
No worries at all, thanks for watching and your comment. Ross
Don't forget the antiseize on the threads kids
on a spark plug?
Quick question if you don’t mind. I’ve got a 2014 klr650 with only 9000 km on it. Sat for 3 years. Wouldn’t start. Removed and cleaned the carb best I could. Started up right away but now when idling tac moves 50-100rpm… have to really look at it to see it move. I adjusted the fuel mixture screw every such way but tac still fluctuates… now bikes back together was thinking might try new spark plug? Think it may be spark plug or carb issue? Any advice or idea what it may be to cause the idle tac move very small
Hi Karmaline, Sounds more like a fuelling issue to me, have you considered cleaning out your carb float chamber? over long periods of time old petrol congeals and clogs the float chamber. It would be worth you checking the spark plug and giving it a good clean with petrol and a toothbrush. Does it still fluctuate when on choke? Regards Ross
@@RossPerryProductions thanks for reply. Ya since sitting for 3 years. Since tank was full of fuel wondering if tank dirty as well. Thoroughly clean out car jets and every hole and etc. but like I said fires up now and idols a little bit fluctuating between 50 and 100 RPM so wondering if it was the tank still dirty although has new gas in it or maybe clean out pilot jet again?
I'm in sydney also. Sydney nova scotia. Lol
haha really ! :)
Is there a spark plug socket included in the tool kit that comes with the bike? Most always one is included in the factory tool kits that come with the bike.
Hi Jeff, yes I believe there is in the tool kit that comes with the bike, unfortunately I never got one when i bought the bike second hand.
@@RossPerryProductions Keep up the good work . I will use your videos for reference when I service my 2017. The tool kit is located in a recessed area in the rear rack. If your bike came with the top case already installed it could be that you have a tool kit under your top case. It is worth a look. I have the oem soft case on mine and have to remove it anytime I want to get at the tool kit.
@@jeffperdue6689 Hi Jeff, No I checked there first, I bought the bike second hand so the tool kit and spare key were long gone. Thanks for watchcing
