    Your LTZ 400 is super clean man I have a 07 LTZ 400 I’ve been doing things to it to make it look better

    Really appreciate how meticulous yet efficient you are with your work. Constantly changing the oil on my dvx 400 and learned a couple of great tips in this video! Thank you

    Hey man Why 15w 40 diesel oil instead of 10w 40 regular oil ?

    • @PatrickRiggs33
      @PatrickRiggs33  5 місяців тому

      I think I outlined the reasoning pretty good toward the end but basically the Rotella T4 is a JASO/MA rated oil (wet clutch safe) and is cheap so you can change your oil often (which everyone should be doing). without pissing money away. Motorcycle specific oils are relatively expensive vs. Rotella at less than $20/gallon. Hope this helps clear up any confusion.

    Any chance you still have your old tusk heel guards and nerf bars? Been looking all over and can’t find a set since they discontinued them

    • @PatrickRiggs33

      I no longer have the heel guards but I still have the nerfs if you are interested.

    Any particular reason you're using 15 40 instead of 10 40? I'm about to change mine, some people recommended me to use 15 40 even though Suzuki says 10 40 in the manual if I'm not mistaken... Why is that?

    • @PatrickRiggs33
      @PatrickRiggs33  Рік тому

      This oil is available literally everywhere. KTM specified to use it for quite a while as did Rekluse before they came out with their own oil. Many race teams still use this oil without issue. 15-40 T4 is an excellent oil as is their 5w-40 T6. Change it often!!

      I no longer have the stock carb or I would. It's a very simple procedure on the LTZ I am sure there are a ton of great vids on UA-cam for the LTZ or DRZ carb

    What size crush washer is it for the oil drain plug also where can I find the oil filter oring at?

      Order a bunch of them from the rocky mountain atv oem parts section. You can also buy a universal pack of crush washers from them for multiple machines.

    I have a question about my LTZ 400, I changed petcock to a raptor 660 one, but now when I turn on the choke it cuts off, what could cause that?

    • @PatrickRiggs33
      @PatrickRiggs33  Рік тому

      Not really sure I understand. If it's running, and holding an idle on it's own why turn on the choke? It should only be used for a few seconds to get it started.

      @@daytonwalter1747 Good call! If you plan on just keeping it simple with an exhaust and stock carb get the dynojet jet kit and follow their instructions. It will run really well. Also recommend a pull style choke for your stock carb if you don't already have one.
