I love how honest he is😂 they recommend replacing the o ring that’s a complete waist of time
Haha
@Gus Kasen no one gives a shit
Just bought a 2017 250FX demo model from a local dealer, my first 4-stroke ever, you are now my sensei. Do you have a link to a valve shim kit?
I use the hot cams, ebay, 60 bucks
Dude, iv always worried about if iv ran my oil way too long...your video has eased my anxiety...keep doing your thing man...great HONEST videos....keep freaking the trolls out...it makes me laugh pretty damn hard actually
Awesome man Tha KS for watching
Currently own a 2005 WRF 250, only changed the oil in it 14 times since owning the bike from new. No issues here 👍
How many hours? Total?
Vegas RoManiac original clocks stopped working many moons ago, but on average 5 hours each weekend 👍
Great vid! I just bought a 2016 yz250fx. I took it for first ride, love it. Giving it a full service next week.
Thanks to you I know how to do oil change without missing anything. I already figured the drain and filler bolts, but the extra lil oil filter under motor and bolt in the head showing pressure are great tips, thanks!
Awesome, the bike is great you gonna love it
Would this be the same oil filter for the 16’ Yz250F? Thx and awesome video!!
SS oil filters are amazing. Reusable and reliable imo. Also you wearing the same shirt in the last few videos
Yep, never changed since than, stinks but it works.. Haha, and yes stainless steel filters are cool
Awesome video man, I use the same methods as you with my klx 400. I change my oil every 60 hours. I use Castrol conventional motorcycle oil. It cost $5 for a 1 liter bottle. Cheap oil but good oil. I reuse my o-rings like you do, I just check them to make sure they seal and arnt warped or deteriorating. Replace my oil filter every change. My bike has just over 2000 running hours on the hour meter. I've never had to do a thing to it. Follow your owners manual exactly and you wont have an issue. Thanks romaniac! Your bike is looking great
You overcharge, wasting oil killing the plannet
Everyone hears about racers changing there oil after every weekend or race and they immediately think they need to do the same. What a waste. I have 2056 running hours on a bike that starts up first click of the button & runs perfect. The motor had never been opened either. People your wasting your money and the oil. Follow your owners manual. BTW, its extremely rare to find anything that actually requires synthetic oil rather then Mineral, how good does the oil need to be for your engine to survive? Marketing poly
i got a buddy who has 500 Cf moto quad 2005, the guy never changed the oil in 15years, just checking if there is enough in it, believe it or not the quad runs fine without any noises, lol, crazy
Impressive
Here's a tip, lean the bike to the left when you pull the filter so you don't spill oil all over it.
I've done that before but I forgot.. Haha
Great vids, keep it up! Hit me up when your in Utah. Were planning a 100m ride. 2 days and fuel at 50. Centeral Utah
Oh I got to bring the drz for that.. Sounds fun
I always enjoy you..esp.when ur right ..just a bit of common sense goes along way Mr.but in today's world ..we you know..there will always be folks who change oils n pistons..cus it says so.. well if I can afford it ..ok but ..generally I can't so thinking ahead and just being smart about it works ..and has 4 me 4.. 50+ yrs of riding..keep proving them wrong n pissing them off luv it...
Thanks for watching man
I love your videos you have helped me a lot thank you sir 🤘🏻
Good video buddy.
This is not a criticism and I did this on DBS channel too, mostly because he doesn’t have a bike long enough to imo be telling people to use any old oil it’s fine.
Your case I know you will, but it’s still early days and I am sure you will be fine, but just note this, you have minion but particles on each filter and plug, something I’d wearing inside, regardless how minor, that’s 3 sides of the motor, extra oil eg too much can actually do damage it can cause slugging and foaming of oil. For those that change they’re oil more often good on them I say especially if racing regularly, if you haven’t raced you won’t understand.
Stick to your manual sure good advice, but also listen to what your bike is telling you, if it’s doing that every oil change, look,at your oil type, look at your frequency.
Very very good tip on your oil filter re the stainless steel over the paper. That impressed me. 🤙
I do the same in my Subis, I run KnN because the anti drain back seals are a silicone over a rubber better life and seal, the seal is key, deal better with extreme heat and cold temps which we have here, plus keeps oil in the filter to prevent a cool or dry start, has a bypass spring vs a stamped steel again just better performance, metal end caps vs cardboard slices and material even number and quality of the pleats uses impregnated, oh impregnated sounds like, lol better for racing and high flow rates and is wire back supports the filter for longer, Wix is also a good option.
So with your filter what I notice is the ends caps the please quality the magnet all will be doing a superior job, nice work. I’d maybe look at doing your oil change a bit sooner for longevity of your engine regardless of your manual if your run oil so cheap why risk it. Personally aid run better oil as well as I see signs minor maybe but that’s how issues start especially with these new four-strokes.
Btw while you were fluffing with your filters, I’d done mine and gone riding on my 2t 👻 couldn’t resist 🤪🤪
Mann, my food got cold by the time I finished testing your message haha, yeah all valid points
Thank you for the video and tips
Glad it helped
Love the videos and the logical explanations 👍
Thanks man, and thanks for watching
magnetic drain bolt smart idea on the yz 125 01 we have a check "transmisoin oil level bolt" dont that glass ever brake or is it like real durable glas love your vids man !
I always wondered if it ever unglued and falls out, but nope never broke one
The oil goes from the outside to the inside and not inside-out, you can check the manual for oil system drawings.
Makes sense, easy to clean that way
im curious to see the oil sample im sure will be perfect!
Oil sample same out strange.. But good
Where did you purchase the clutch cover guard? Possible link?
That piece of metal is from the splines of your gears. Change your oil more often not every 40 hours
Nah, that's a waste..
Your oil is so thin it shouldn’t be like that it ain’t lubing nothing hope your gears start crunching
@@psychfreakz2856 another youtube watching expert, how do you know its thin.. Just from what you see, do you know how warm the motor was? Do you know how hot is in Vegas? u just have a desire to be gullible to oil companies propaganda, and believe things that have nothing to do except moving product and selling more. Open your mind..
I agree looked like water the oil that is.
@@mt1885 you are as insane as he is, as a matter of fact this time I sent the oil for a oil analysis and it came back 74 percent life left.. You guys are both nuts.. Absolutely bonkers..
My bike doesn't use any stinking oil filters. HAHA. Ride safe my 2 wheel friends.
Haha, yeah I've heard 2 strike didn't advance in tech.. To oil filters yet.. Haha
Hi VRM,looking forward to the test results from the lab:)
Video is already done, amd posted, will be live in a week or so
Can I use diesel to clean that small extra filter?
How much oil goes in there? Manual says 1.1Lcapacity 0.85L oil filter change 0.83 I don’t know who to believe
You add to fill .. about 1qt
where did you get the clutch case cover? I think its something worth investing in. Could save you a lot of money on the resell.(How I look to see how many hours are on bike(
Ebay, and the gtyr computer can read the Efi
where do you get your filter from?
amazon ... or ebay
nice!!! do you think that i can finde a inox filter for a xr250L honda??? will be nice.
Well here in USA we have it all.. So I'm sure you can
When removing and tightening the oil bolts etc, do you use a torque wrench or just tighten it by hand? Thanks
By hand, but my hand is calibrated
Wouldn’t alcohol be safer to clean with?
Yeah if you have some, I drink it so I never have any
If your doing an oil change, please next time check air in tires, airfilter, lube joints and clean the windshield (Google's) for crying out loud... gheeesh what kind of operation you running around there 🤣😁
Haha, you laugh but I went with the hose from the compressor to the bike felt really stupid because I have mousse and turned around.. Haba
@@vegasromaniac hahahaha yep that's funny, old habits die hard!
Why is there a magnet inside the oil filter? I thought the oil flows from the outside inwards? So if its catching particles inside the filter than surely the filter is rubbish?
Feel free to correct me if im wrong👍
Nope oil goes from. Inside to outside
@@vegasromaniac
Ah fair enough 👍 I know on my bike (ktm 640) it flows through from the outside, I just assume it was always like that as the outside of the filter has more filter surface area.
@@neilizer man r u sure thats how it works on your bike? Think about it this way, if it flows from outside than when you remove the filer you need to clean the box because the filter doesn't contain the particles, that a a quarky design from Ktm if that's how it works. Even on cars the oil always comes from inside out
My buddy has a CRF450R. When we were riding one day his crank went bad. When he pulled his oil filter all the crank shavings were on the outside of the oil filter.
@@neilizer Odds are that is actually not how your KTM oil filter functions. I have a 2011 350 KTM and the oil filter functions just like this one on the Yamaha.
How far up the peep sight do u want ur oil level to be
Ever find out ?
@@Mike10700 yeah man i found out half way between the 2 marks hope this helps bro
@@yzf-iq8hr yeah man, my problem was after I drained the oil i thought I’d had the bike level & when it took 1300ml of oil so I got frustrated & confused.
realized the next day I had to properly hold the bike level while using the “level” 😆
My ttr230 has no oil it just burns it but I’m getting a fx
Where can I find a magnetic oil plug? Could you give me the link
I got mine on ebay
Ive never replaced them o-rings in my whole life and got away with it .. Why replase something that is not broken ...
how do you clear the debris off the oil filter magnet if its inside the oil filter? q-tip or something?
I didn't find nothing in there hut if I would have had some I have a magnetic pick that is stronger Than the magnet inside the filter.
Yah buddy
Thanks for watching
Vegas. Whats that floating tennis ball for?😂
Probably the same reason I have one in my garage, to know when you car is as far forward as it can be.
Or a toy for the cat? :)
@@GoldensniperGaming oh that is actually a good idea!
Yep, it's for my wife so she knows when to stop..
What is that little mini oil filter called
I need to look in the manual, it's under yamaha oil screen.. On ebay
Where do you send the oil for analysis (to be analyzed)???
Blackstone labs I think, I don't remeber I bought the kit on Amazon,
I have this hard to find neutral problem on my 2019fx.. What about you guys?
Clutch cable to short, pull the cable in a bit more that would disengage the clutch plates better, but I do have a hard time finding mine also sometimes, it's the way the gear box it's made, so you don't slide in neutral.. My drz it's as smooth as a baby for neutral even with boots
The oil filter you linked to says it is not compatible with the YZ250FX. Am I looking at the wrong filter or is the site incorrect and the filter really is compatible?
Hmm, they might have change the link, that's what I got.. It was yz250f filter, basically same as fx or wr
I just checked it and it does say it’s compatible with the YZ250F. That’s weird. They’re the same engine, right?
I immediatly switched to a stainless oil filter too after buying my crf when I learned that the dealer was selling the cheap oem paper filter something like 25$. What a sad corporate joke.
Yep, reusable forever..
What year is your yz250fx? I checked amazon for oil filter and it says no compatible with my 2020 yz250fx
Mine is a 17 .. and i think i got it for a yz250f , same motor .. just the fx labeling is not a known
@@vegasromaniac do you think it's compatible with 2020? I got one ordered but then check their compatibility and not a single 2020 bike is on the list
I just buy a 2018 250fx and do you know where I can buy A original plastic kit?
And how muck oil you put?
1 qt, to the level... And ebay for plastic
@@vegasromaniac Ok thank you a lot of time
I am having trouble finding a magnetic oil drain plug/bolt for my 2019 yz250fx. Anybody know a reliable seller that has them?
Ebay, same as yz250f
Hey Matt how much oil did you fill your 2019 250fx with ?
Definately should not be using Super Tech oil in an expensive race bike and running it for 40 hrs. 10 hrs you should change it.
Why not? It's the same stuff in the box..
Lol. The bottle said 5w30. Did u mean 5w30 instead of 10w40? Just curious
Did you watch the full video? he said he used that bottle as measurement.
Memmo I did. I missed it. Lol.
Haha, mannibcought you skipping.. You are killing me. Haha
Vegas RoManiac lol. He definitely did.
How often do you recommend changing the oil?
I do 30 hours
U do whatever it's in the manuala
How do do it every 2 to 6 hours well is cheap motors are expensive
Nope paper filters are catchingmore
H I The ad for these filters says: Laser cut, medical grade, 304 stainless steel micronic filter cloth
Filters down to 35 Microns, up to 3 times more than paper filters
Welded pleat seam to withstand highest tempatures up to 600F
Maintains consistent flow in all conditions, unlike paper filters
Yes this is an ad but at least there are some numbers in it. Where did you take your information? Personal opinion of fact?
@@Wide000 look at internet. Racers swear on them. Paper expands with oil and you also cant clean metal filters good enough . Paper also has a rougher fine structured surface
H I I’d rather talk to racers than read the internet on that advice, paper also loses its integrity, unless you can support that with fact micron levels type of paper number of pleats it’s just another internet must be true comment, also the filter he’s using has a magnetic catch so has multiple redundancy particle features.
If racing, racers will change them regularly, will not be used for 100s of hours, when you race you don’t skimp on low cost details, that causes expensive costs there or later at the next race, this is proven in every form of motorsport, not hearsay and been there done that, so not good advice for a weekend warrior.
If you want to be cheap, on cheap parts, then go right ahead sooner or later it will catch up with you unless you sell your bikes regularly like some do. Then you pass your problems onto someone else. Nice😔
Frankly unless you have had a bike for at-least a year done at-least one top end, most advice on reliability or your maintenance regime for advising others is just meaningless.
The best point on stainless steel is that they are used on aviation, and you know when the motor on a plane stops, you die, so they would not use them is they were not better.. That sold me on it
Vegas RoManiac Glad to hear that. Great point indeed.
how often do you change oil? in terms of miles if you could.
If I'm bored every 25 hours but I went 40, with an oil test no issues oil came out 72 percent oil life
do you use regular car oil?
Yes Walmart super tec, 10w40
Alot of people say you cant but ive always used regular car oil and never had any problems with the clutch
@@johnnyisasinner8613 yeah most of people repair motorcycles like is some kind of church , if the priest said there is a God you got to believe it. Without questioning...
yeah these guys who rebuild top ends on wr's at like 40 hours
Oh my, put some gloves on while handling gas, please
I like the way my skin feels if tear in touch gas.. And super glue..haha
Really? lol
Our mechanic guys here touch oil, gas, gasoline every day without gloves.. They are doing that for over 30 years and the don't have problems on it.. Maybe there is but it won't hurt you if you do it few times during change oil.. ;)
