How to change the transmission oil in a Suzuki Burgman 650

- This is a very simple process and very affordable. If your not afraid to turn a wrench you can easily accomplish this preventive maintenance on the wet clutch/transmission and save tons of money in the process. this covers the 2003 to 2012 Suzuki Burgman 650 Maxi Scooter.
No need to remove any tupperware for this. You can fill it through the inspection hole using a smaller diameter hose until it starts overflowing. A 10 minute job. No fill plug access needed, so no plastics removal either.
That's Good to Hear, I'm sure this notice will make job easier for many...
It worked for me 😃 thanks
Tried this - liked the idea of saving time and energy removing the t-ware.
However as I injected the oil, it started coming back out of the inspection hole after only 100cc's or so. Since I had the t-ware off, already, I went ahead and pulled the upper filler bolt and finished it the canonical way. I added about *200(!)*! more cc's before the oil started dripping out of the inspection hole.
So, no - I don't think this is a good alternative.

Hi brother,
Which transmission fluid should I use please.... please advise
The transmission is the same as the engine oil. The final drive oil is where you use gear oil.
I never bother with removing the inspection bolt. Just put the correct amount of oil in, as the manual states. No need to see the oil run out to know it is properly full. Less possibility for a mess too. Great diy demo! Very much appreciate your efforts. Thanks!!
That is also a really good way to do it does save on the mess. Thanks for the kind words and support.👍🏻
Hi! Wow....these videos are so helpful! I always did my own maintenance when I was a young fella, but now I ache when I get down on the ground....I am going to have to find someone who can help me do this...who knows, I might even give it a go myself...thanks for these great videos!
harleycharley I’m glad I could help
Found that the inspection hole is a good place to add the oil to the transmission. The fill plug is such what a pain in the butt to get to. If you add the oil thru the inspection hole with a syringe to the point of being over filled, letting the excess run out, your good to go.
qt002 i’ve never done it that way but it sounds like it works. Thanks for the input and thanks for watching😎👍🏻 I’ll give that a try next go around.
What a great idea!! One of those "why didn't I think of that" moments. LOL.
First thing I thought of lol. Why would you have a separate fill hole way back there.
You are Brilliant
Thanks..... please which transmission fluid should I use...... thanks in advance
Had my 2017 650 Bergman oil Transmission oils replaced by York Suzuki yesterday, very upset as they damaged the outer casing plastic sealing lugs (catches so there is a Gap now,(won’t click back in) they denied damaging it said there mechanic Did not have to take the side panels off, as you can Clearly see they have to take them off to work and fill the Rear Transmission , last year they Major serviced the bike a Day later the Radiator Leaked and the engine Ceased they said it was a Road chip that must have caused it? I lost the bike out of action for three months and had to pay for a new Radiator, my thoughts were they must have moved and cracked the Radiator to fit two new Plugs is this RiGht ? Service cost me £350 plus an Extra £750 for a new Radiator, I’m still upset about the whole event, would like your thoughts here many thanks Pete!
I think anything‘s possible with the stealerships they make their money by the service, not by selling the bikes. I always had the opinion that nobody’s going to take care of my equipment as well as I am so I always try to do all of my service sometimes that involves going down the rabbit hole, but I just take my time and muddle through. I think it’s very likely that they could’ve broken both items. It’s a tight situation getting getting to the plugs. It’s possible that they could’ve cracked it the plastic cover. I’m sure they probably broke if it wasn’t broken before. Good luck and ride safe my friend. I hope this helps.
I was watching this and wondering why not just put fhe oil into the inspection hole? Seems to be a lot less mucking around.
Absolutely I was just going by the service manual. It can be done that way too.👍🏻
@@ManCaveMayhem You have an awesome channel. I bought a 2008 Burgman 650 2 months ago. My first motorbike in 45yrs. Last week I traded the 2008 for a 2014. One owner from new. Immaculate condition. Full service history. Paid 10k NZ. It's awesome. Keep it up. 😊👍👌
@@NZVideoGuy thanks for the kind words, my friend. I appreciate the support ride safe 👍🏻
Enjoy your videos. I don't remove the tupperware on my 2010 B650E. I use plastic ketchup bottles(Walmart or Amazon) with a section of plastic tubing forced onto the bottle tip to squirt it into the filler. Pre-measure the oil and squirt it in.
Willa Jabir Yes you really don’t need to remove the Tupperware for much of that IE the oil change etc. I mainly did it to clarify the locations for people. I should have explained that in the vids 😳
@@ManCaveMayhem having a devil of a time trying to get the lower shield off my '16. How do you get the oil level bolt out of the trans. with the cover on?
Dennis Herreid I’m not sure about the plastics on the 16 it is different than the 12s I don’t want to steer you in the wrong direction.
@@ManCaveMayhem I hired a motorcycle mechanic to do the trans and final drive oil change. The lower foot shield had to come off. Thanks for your response!
How's the car tire working out for you?
Dennis Herreid fantastic👍🏻
I want to thank you, just changed both engine and transmission oil on my 2011 650. Your instructions were on point and you probably saved me a bunch of money! Thanks a lot.
Ivan Thanks for your kind words and support and have a happy Thanksgiving!
Did you buy yours used and how much did it cost? My neighbor is selling a 2014 for 5800
opichocal mine was at the Honda dealership for like a year. Some dude traded it for a new gold wing. No one would take it So I got a smoking deal for it. I paid 3000 bucks out the door.
Why are you comfortable using a viscosity oil that isn't recommended by Suzuki, and what is the reason for using an oil formulated for diesel engines? I saw another guy on UA-cam using the same diesel oil for a smaller 4 stroke, gas powered scooter. Harley Davidson recommends using an oil formulated for diesel engine's if your unable to get their oil brand, but never explains why. Why not use a viscosity oil recommended by Suzuki and formulated for motorcycles? Are you privy to information nobody else has including Suzuki? Seems like darklore someone picked up from online motor oil forums.
MotorheadRedo The diesel oils are formulated for wet clutch applications and have anti foaming agents in them as do motorcycle oils. I use it with confidence I’m not advising you or anyone else to use it. I’m sorry if I gave that impression.
Is it possible to add oil via the inspection screw? because my long screw doesn't turn, i don't know what to do?
I’m pretty sure you can do it that way it just makes a little easier to know when it’s full if you fill it through the top long bolt. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching and ride safe.
Hi, I have a problem with a 2012 Suzuki Burgman 560. Can you help me solve it? My problem is with the movement of the scooter. The sound of the scooter is loud and the movement is delayed, but if you move slowly, the scooter goes quickly, but the basic sound of the scooter is
That’s a tough one a not sure what you mean by the movement is slow and the scooter is loud. It could have something to do with your belt maybe. But without being there to hear it and see what’s going on it’s hard to diagnose.
Good morning. Can I have your WhatsApp number or email for easy communication with you?@@ManCaveMayhem
I wish you was around me I'll pay you to fix my old bike
Thanks for the vote of confidence. Thanks for watching my friend.
I wish you showed how to get the plastics off
If I am correct you said you can use the same oil the Rotella T6 540 Synthetic Diesel Oil for both oils, the transmission and the engine oil. Is the correct ?
Bob Grabowski Yes that is correct. But the final drive oil is different. I hope this helps.
i changed my motor oil for my an650 2007, i put 2600ml for 10w40oil it rest 500ml can i use the same oil 10w40 and put 360cc to change oil transmission ? thnx !
as a nurse, you can use your syringe differently, just put the tip into a cup of oil and withdraw the plunger and it will fill the syringe. instead of withdrawing the plunger and filling the syringe. Great video.
thomas murdock Thanks for the info and thanks for watching. Hope these help.👍🏻
Great video. Thanks for demonstrating how to do this service. Thank you.
Always open the fill before the drain plugs!! If you open the drain and can't open the fill, you're screwed!!
I just flip my bike upside down 😂
What’s the correct oil?
Same as the engine👍🏻 the final drive oil is different.
Evening, can you make a change the rear shocks video? Thanks!
Hi, do you think motul 7100-4t- 10x40 full synthetic oil is suitable?
It should be for the transmission not the final drive though
@@ManCaveMayhem for final drive oil ?
@@mustafa-ss the Suzuki Bergman 650. Also has final gear drive oil which takes a gear oil I’m not sure of the weight I did a video on that too.

Thanks for the video..... very appreciated....need to know how much transmission fluid .....should I put in my burgman please and which type of fluid.... thanks in advance.
It’s approximately 360 ML but if you watch the video there’s a vent plug on the top and it will overflow out of the top plug when it’s full. Watch the video. Hope this helps👍🏻
Hi, I think you need to use the kind of oil recommended by the manufacturer? Or not? I think I need to charge 80W-85 or 75W.
Thanks my friend👍🏻 I will check it out!
Thanks!
And a super thank you to you🎉 I certainly appreciate it. I’m glad this video helped you ride safe my friend and keep the rubber side down.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
thanks dude!
Anytime my friend 👍🏻
sr , if you have videos how change spark plugs, I will appreciate it, thanks.
salsan88 We don’t have any yet but there will be one coming soon hopefully.
sr mancave mayhem, I did today the change of spark plugs, no´t too much dificult but not very easy, the only bad is I install autolite sparks plugs, I can´t find the originals and the motorcycle dealers was closed, I will change sparks in the next oil change, tanks for your videos helps a lot.
salsan88 cool we will still be doing a video on it👍
Just changed the motor oil of mine today. Didn't even knew there was another oil change to be done on the clutch. Can I change the transmission oil and it won't affect the brand new oil i've just changed? I don't know if they are connected or not.
Yes you can change it separately👍🏻
I just got the oil changed. Took out 2950 cc. Measured out the recommended 2600 ml . Unable to check window so will do it tomorrow when friend comes over. Both filter and bolt very difficult to remove. Had work done at shop last yr. A mechanic friend had to use foot and a half ratchet and got it loosened for me. I was able to complete the job. Job done by 70 yr old women…hope to do transmission oil tomorrow. Watched video’s several times.. Thank You very much. The dealership wrecked my drain bolt on my suzuki bouldevard a few yrs ago. Then denied it. Got that repaired at the Honda dealership for $almost $300.00 dollars….
I’ve heard those kind of stories too many times to mention. I’m glad I could be of some help to you. Good luck in the future.
Food for thought, why not fill the transmission with the seringe through the level plug?
Are usually do it. That way I showed it that way because that’s how they show it in the service manual. It does make more sense though to do it the other way. Thanks for watching my friend ride safe.👍🏻
I have enjoyed all your vedio"s . l am researching this bike and thinking about finding a used one like you did. I ride an 06 gold wing and looking for another toy. I think scooter looks like more fun than a small bike for me. Thanks for the education. I enjoyed your channel
Earl Baker good luck in your hunt for a scooter! Thanks so much for your support and thanks for watching👍🏻 Ride Safe 😎
cool and helpful videos, thank you.. brother
Héctor Pérez I’m glad it helped. Thanks for the kind words.👍🏻
I’ve watched your videos for years very informative
Thanks for your kind words! I’m glad they can help. Ride safe my friend👍🏻🇺🇸
Thank You...real helpful!
Thanks for the kind words👍🏻 glad I could help. Ride safe!
Thanks for this. I just bought an '07 Burgie 650 and since it's been sitting a while, I'd planned to change the oil as soon as I get it home.
Thanks for the kind words. And thanks for watching I’m glad the video helped👍🏻🇺🇸
Hello Can I know the type of oil used? Is it Ker oil or Hydraulics or ordinary oil where possible
Ali Khalil The transmission oil is the same as the motor oil. I have been using 5w40 synthetic for the engine and transmission.
Thank You..Did it once but I needed a review…..
So glad it helped👍🏻
Could you drain it then add the oil in the inspection port and not even mess with the fill port?
I’m sure you could. I just did it according to the shop manual
Very very simple
Transmission oil same engine oil right?
Jirawat Wattanakuljaroensin yes that is correct.
how many sparks plugs use the burgman 650 ?
salsan88 Two spark plugs. The Burgman 650 is a two cylinder engine. Thanks for watching😎
Question.
I changed my transmission oil and when it was time to refill I didn't have a long enough syringe on hand, so I went on and refilled my transmission oil through the (overfill) hole till it started pouring out.
My question is, isn't that kinda the same? Whats the real difference between refilling the transmission oil from the fill plug as opposed to the "overfill" plug?
Since, I've ridden my 650 a good 220miles and its been running great. I am slightly concerned as I have a 1400mile road trip with my burg man here in a few days. What do you think about my situation?
Dickotine You should be fine👍🏻
@@ManCaveMayhem cool thanks a lot. Do you still have/ride your burg man?
Dickotine yes in fact we are planning a trip soon. Will be doing a moto vlog on it.
@@ManCaveMayhem o niiice. I will try and motovlog my trip as well. I'm loving how fun these machines are.
Dickotine They are great! Ride safe!
What's the mileage of the scooter buddy?
I’m not sure what you are asking? The miles that are on my scooter at the present are about 12,000. My average fuel mileage is anywhere from about 55 to 65 mpg. I hope I covered it.
You sir have a knack for good diy’s. You did that so well I think even I could do it now.
Nice video, I personally use a small length of tubing + funnel to save taking out & refilling a syringe (same for final drive oil change to).
Racqueteer Yes that probably is easier that way. The syringes can be a sin it the butt. Thanks for watching and thanks for the input😎👍🏻
Does this cover the 2013 models also?
nolafishr I’m sure they are very similar but I can’t confirm this 100%. I know the plastics are different but the drivetrain should be the same.
You should my friend! I've seen yours and they are good!
You are very wonderful in offering your content and benefited from your information and thank you very much. I am one of you from the Arab world from the country of Iraq specifically thanks. Thank you.
Thanks my friend for the kind words.
@@ManCaveMayhem thanks to you
I eat and use the exact same ice cream/bucket! haha
Tri Pacer That’s awesome. Great minds think a like. 😂 Thanks for watching👍
Thanks for the great videos. Do you have a video showing me where my diagnostic plug is on my 2013 650 executive. Thx
No I don’t unfortunately and I have looked in the service manual and was unable to find anything. They show the diagnostic codes but that’s it.
@@ManCaveMayhem thx. It's accessed by the air filter. I disconnected my centre stand sensor that keeps the bike from shifting for maintenance safety. Now my bike shifts as normal.
@@jefftreadway8412 awesome! That’s great! Ride safe my friend👍🏻
Engine oil and Transmission oil should be same fluid?
Saad It is the same. It’s just filled in different sections of the motor. The final drive or gear oil is different.
ManCave Mayhem Thank you!
HOW HOT DOES THE FINAL DRIVE GEARBOX GET WHILE RUNNING ? ON A 2003 650 BURGMAN
I’m not sure what you asked. I think you missed a word there. I’m assuming you might be saying how hot does it get?
@@ManCaveMayhem yes my 650 seems to be hot almost motor temperature
Not sure 🤔 I’ve never had a reason to check it after a ride.
Thanks great info
I’m glad I can be helpful👍🏻
Have you ever had to deal with a striped drain bolt on the transmission? Is so how did you repair it? Thanks in advance!
I have not, but I think if I had one, I would probably look for a Helecoil and install it. But you have to be very careful about shavings getting into the transmission when you re tap that hole.
@@ManCaveMayhemthank you so much
Thank you so much for responding to the first question but I do have another question what is the torque on that boat for the clutch drain bolt? Thanks in advance
Alguien sabe dónde se encuentra el regulador de energía de una Burgman 650
How do you get enough room to remove the filler bolt without removing the lower Tupperware on a '16 ?
mancave mayhem, thanks a lot for your fast answer, Im learning with your videos.
Добрый вечер,а на русском языке можно
nice video. very detailed!
thanks for share
Can i fill the oil from inspection bolt?
I’m sure you can. I was just doing it according to the shop manual
Sorry dude. You've been misled. There is no need whatsoever to remove the lower left body panel to do this service - nor the crankcase oil change. The wet clutch does NOT have to be filled by putting fresh oil into the TOP opening. The reservoir can be filled from the center opening, in the exact same manner the rear drive oil is refilled. No need to remove the lower body panel to do the oil change either. Yes you must still remove the maintenance lid to access the oil filler plug.
I take it off. I find it's easier. also while it's off I clean up all the road scum and junk off of the lower end of the engine. Thanks for watching.
A noble reply. But the panel is still a major-league pain-in-the-geezer. For the deeper maintenance items, I'll let my mechanic mess with it. And one more item, I will be changing the rear drive oil every time I change out the rear tire. Just seems to be a more convenient maintenance venue. Keep up the good work!
Will you please explain HOW to remove the lower panel? it looks like a pain in the butt....
There is more than one video here that explains it. I totally is a pain in the geezer I recommend letting your mechanic do it when he does the "heavier" maintenance. For simply changing fluids, it simply isn't necessary. Happy trails!
I second this. I don't remove the cover to do the transmission. Just re-fill from the level hole. Way easier.
Hello my friend possible to know the type of oil is it Sea Oil or what I would like to keep a picture of the oil if possible
deea deea You would use a wet clutch compatible oil. The oil that I’m using is a 5w/40 Rotella diesel oil.
