Any of you guys use fumoto valve plugs? I love em!
@@DontNickMe Which original manufacturers trust these valve drain plugs enough to use them from the factory? Seems like it would be a great feature to advertise for them, 'easy servicing'!
Until then, no thanks.
@@James-dh1ji same reason they put horrible suspension and other parts. They're making bikes to make $$! Why do you think people have to replaced bikes so much?
@@DontNickMe I doubt this part at Manufacturer's volume would be that much more expensive than a drain plug and washer, and they could advertise 'easy DIY services' to make extra sales. Nope, that's not it. They looked at the risk versus reward and decided that this is solving a problem that doesn't exist. Operating a drain plug and washer every 3-5 thousand miles is not hard or time consuming enough to warrant ANY extra risk. Billions (trillions?) of engines have worked just fine with a trusty old drain plug and washer. No thanks.
So glad RevZilla let Ari start this series! No nonsense, practical guidance, great advice. And that aluminium foil trick is a brilliant idea 😁🔧🏍️
I change my own oil all the time I'm just here to support Revzilla and give them some extra views because I like them
Same here😁😁
And to see that sexy street triple
Saaaame! Lol
Appreciate it Steve!
Finally Ari is back with this series 😍.Although i already know and performed many times own motorcycle oil change.I just like to watch it
yeah, it's not too much different than a car, but it's still cool to get his advice
Just the aluminum foil trick was well worth the time watching this. Great tip 👍👍
The first time I changed my oil on my Nighthawk 250 I overtightened the oil bolt so hard that it cracked the crankcase. On the plus side, I got to learn how to rebuild an entire engine, which in the long run was an experience I look back on fondly, but you can imagine how I felt at the time.
Even if you do use a torque wrench- make sure you know how it works, make sure you know what it tightens to, and make sure you know whether that value is foot*lbs or N*m!!
I wasn't going to watch this video because I've changed the oil in my bike so many times! So glad I did. The tip about using the foil is GOLD! Thank you!
I love his garage. Everything is so neatly organized.
No excuse to miss an oil change when it’s this straight forward and liked the foil over the exhaust idea. 👍🏻
Glad to see your wound healed well!
It's a personal thing for me, but changing oil and pretty much any maintenance I do on my bike is therapeutic. I take my sweet time.
That aluminum foil hack is brilliant idea. I use an old rag.
Just a pure good feeling to see Ari back!! So great!
No bullshit, no nonsense, detailed, clear instructions and good advice for normal folks, not buy this buy that!
Thank you 🤙🏼
Easily the best videos from this channel. Good to see you back Ari!
Im really excited for this series. Sure, most of it I have already half assed myself, but Ari is very knowledgeable and there is always something to learn.
Right on Ben, glad you find something useful in the vids. We always aim to include a few tips and tricks that we've picked up over the years.
5:55 Thats the best advice that almsot nobody else talks about! Most people just measure oil by manual and ending up overfilling their engines not knowing that engine holds some old oil even if you drain it completly. I usualy add new oil so it overfills sight glass little bit and after warming up new oil and letting it cool down its always reads way below middle so i add a bit oil and it sits above middle and below max level.
Let's see a video on coolant and brake fluid changes
Sure thing, that's coming up!
@@AriH211 yeah bikes been sitting 2014 only 4,500 miles original fluids except oil has been changed thought maybe I should flush and fill with fresh fluids putting back on the road.
This video couldnt have been posted at a better time. I'm about to do my oil change and I also have the exact same motorcycle. Thanks!
Ha, perfect. Good luck.
Great to see Ari back 👌👌👌👍👍👍
thank you for not telling people to replace that washer for no reason at all.... too many people overthink stuff like that
That foil trick is brilliant thank you
May i add something to this great instructional. If you work on your bike especially when you are not using it as a daily, you might want to put some tape over ignition and killswitch. This way you will know that you are not to turn the bike on until you are done. Say that something goes wrong, you get the wrong oil, wrong filter, whatever, and you leave the bike with no oil just sitting there. It's a good idea to have tape on the main starting components to avoid turning it on when dry. Very useful on track bikes. Same goes for major repairs where you leave the job for another day.
Good to see a video from u again after a long gap
How's your jaw now
I don't need to watch this but I will because it's just so refreshing to have a series like this be done by someone this trusted in the motorcycle media world.
Right on David, means a lot!
What i like to do when draining the oil is put new oil through where you fill and it helps drain more old oil out with the residue and wait till you see the new oil drain out then you know you got most of the old stuff out. Not necessary at all just something my old man thought me.
Btw i love this series, always learn new stuff and the way you teach it is awesome. Thanks
Just change your oil more often with that very same oil you're wasting. It's better for your bike and the Earth. You can't get all the old oil out of the engine, around 15 - 30% of it remains in the heads and other areas of the engine after you drain the oil pan. Your old man taught you wrong and your trick is an illusion.
@@James-dh1ji Yup. If you look at the manual it'll list oil volumes for "oil and filter change" as well as "full rebuild" and the difference can be drastic. Flushing the engine with fresh oil is a waste.
Can't thank you guys enough for making these videos! I just got my first bike a few months ago and your videos have been really helpful. Looking forward to more!
Right on, glad to hear in Andrew.
Same here. 2023 klr 650😂
Oh and I didn't know these videos existed! Made my day!Thanks so much
Well great.... As always you have good tricks... Aluminum foil... Thums up...
Always refer to your owners manual for oil change info👌🏼
Yup! These vids are an overview of the process, but the specifics for your bike can only be found in the manual.
Thank goodness you exist!👋🥳
thank god Ari. You're back at it i hope. was looking for your most current vids all over the place!
Excellent! Did not miss a single thing for the wet sump majority. Dry sumpers: there is also an oil tank.
Yup. Always gotta check your manual! This is just an overview.
Yay. It's different if Ari is the one who's speaking. Doesn't matter if what channel. 😁
Great video Ari! Looking forward to doing my first oil change on my new SV650! Thanks for demystifying the process! Picked up that torque wrench at harbor freight yesterday!
That is a great one. I'd like the similar manual on coolant change. Gonna look for it now.
A big plus with doing things like this yourself is that the bike runs better and is definetly a bit faster after! (not placebo at all)
I use a magnetic telescopic pick up tool to loosen the last few threads on the drain bolt to keep my hands clean.
Ari and RevZilla, two of my favorites together. This is awesome.
Would be cool to see more beginner style maintenance videos like this because not all of us are competent with tools
That's what this series is about plus it just started 😉
It is easy like changing diper . Get the dirt out install the new one very easy :)
Oil change was my first diy. It's so easy and so satisfying. Once a professional messed up and put wrong oil and it felt so sluggish that I ended up doing myself. What a waste of money and time. In India, they charge $3 for a change plus oil and filters for a mass market bike and about $20-50 for a big, low volume, performance bike.
I'm yet to try it out on my car.
You guys need to make a shop manual playlist
Yup, that's a good idea.
Good To Be Back..... Ari...
Great video! Love the DYI vids on The Shop Manual. Please keep them coming. And it's great to see you and Zack on Revzilla!
Every other Saturday ;)
Really nice that you are back :)
I like how he explains things he's very very technical and easy to understand great job 👍
Also, filling your oil filer (even if it's horizontally mounted like here) is a good idea, it reduces the time your engine runs without oil. That adds up considering you should change your oil pretty often.
Ari is the best!!!
Love the subtle ending
Excellent how-to video.
Cheers
Ari is the man!
thanks for tackling the oil disposal Q as part of this Ari!
I am so happy that ari is back
AMAZING video RevZilla!!
Plz do more instructional vidoes plz
These videos are really useful. Good series
Thank you, this is very insightful, don't have a license yet so I do my research here :D
Cool Ari is making this series with Revzilla.
Love ur video. U explained & demonstrated very clearly in a fun & relaxing way. Thank u so much.
Thanks! Straight to the point =) I'm gonna do my first oil change on my MT-07
Excellent video explained in simple way! Love it!
Had a good chuckle 2:00
Come on Ari - you know it never takes 20 minutes. Please add 60 additional minutes for unforeseen issues that always arise when I change oil lol.
What kind of bike do you ride?? My oil change on my R3 takes 15 minutes.
As a matter of fact, we timed an oil-changed on the Street Triple start-to-finish and it was 14 minutes including startup and leak check, so it can definitely be done. Lots of bikes will likely take longer, but 20 minutes seems like a reasonable target for most bikes. None of mine take longer than that.
Ari Henning haha yes I am just a noob 😂. I have a s1000rr, and cb1000r
@@kevinjones1942 My Duc takes more than 25 just to stop dripping.
My Kawasaki Z900 was engineered awesome I don’t need any foil over my exhaust. No oil hits it.
Such a great host, Revzilla chose well.
Holy Shit!!!!!! Ari!!!!!!! I instantly subbed to RevZilla. Thank you so much RevZilla
Soooo glad you are back man
Nice vid. I save $140+ every time I change the oil on my BMW f700GS myself. It's easy.
I suggest getting a fumoto valve drain plug. I use them on all my vehicles. Makes oil changes simpler and no tools ever needed!
Thanks for the info on fumoto, I wasn't even aware that existed,
Until I see these coming stock on vehicles from the manufacturer, I cant trust these valve drain plugs. What would happen if you're riding your bike down the freeway and the fumoto valve fails? If it fails slightly you have engine oil on the rear tire. Major failure and your engine seizes. I'll stick with the old reliable oil washer/ plug and torque wrench, and spend the extra minute or two, thanks.
James It wont fail. Double locking & a C clip to hold it shut
@@James-dh1ji I've used them for years on 5+ vehicles. Never experienced any failing. It's double locked
@@DontNickMe Anecdotal evidence with a sample size of 1. Until these valve drain plugs are approved and equipped by an original manufacturer or equivalent (wouldn't they love to advertise 'simple oil changes', but they obviously don't see the value in this, or it's too risky), I'll take the extra minute or 2 and use a trusty old drain plug and washer that has been proven not to fail on many hundreds of million vehicles. Not worth the risk to me for a very small time savings.
Love Ari big time but miss old lem lem lectures
THANK YOU ARI. THANK YOU REVZILLA!
i dont know if Ary in revzilla now... we miss you bro... welcome back
Ari u are the best, missed you
Glad your back Ari
Awesome! You guys got Ari Henning too!
Love these videos.
Great video and thank you for the tip.
Now I have the courage yo do it myself.
Thank you
Well I use a torque wrench to torque my oilfilter .. in my manual it specific states that it is not allowed to torque the oil filter on by hand since it will not be the right torque (kawasaki Z900 2018) they say to use a special tool (oilfilter wrench) and use a specific torque in NM
I torque everything to the same spec. I use the "should-be-good" ft/lbs.
@@Steve-ec6ed bruh😅🚶🏾♂️ everytime
I think companies do this for legal reasons. But i use a torque wrench as well for my filter, its not much like 18 pounds.
I torque the filter by hand until it stops turning (I have Z900 2018 too). Aren’t the wrenches really just for removing the filter?
do a video on spark plugs, how often they should be cleaned and when to change them??
I love this guy!! Ever since MC!
CBR300R oil change is 8k or 12 months while the filter is 8k. I change oil twice a year, and the filter once.
Great to see you again!
Another great and practical video, thanks Ari.
Me watching Ari teaching me how to change oil even though I did it countless times just because I missed him
2:57 lol, love from India..😘
This is a great series of videos - thx!
One trick I saw on UA-cam is to pre fill your filter a bit before putting it on.
Love this new series
As a former RC390 owner.... I busted out laughing at the 390 comment. Those bikes had so many issues in the early years. Mine got warrantied and I didn't get it back for 8 months. Great bike though.
I blew my head gasket a half-dozen times in one race season, and that was with gasket upgrades, getting the cylinder and head decked, etc. Never had so many DNFs in one year. 😩
This new series is essentially the same as MC Garage which is to say: GREAT!!!
Ha, it's close, but we're trying some different filming strategies and hoping to make it a little more casual without getting long or off topic. Being succinct is my MO.
yay !!! ari hanning is back!!!! dude where were you ?
Cant wait for more advance maintenance videos👌🏻🤛🏻
you are good at it man
I had to laugh so hard when you mentioned the rc390. True!
A couple things, it's a really good idea to have a printout of all the torque values for fasteners on the bike.
When adding oil, it's a really god idea to measure it out rather than going by the sight glass or dipstick, it will greatly reduce the likelihood of putting the wrong amount in.
LOL, its a basic skill but you still manage to make me laugh. Ace work again Ari, keep em coming
Thank you
Perfect presentation !
it takes me 20 minutes to figure which direction I should spin the upside-down oil filter.
hold it with your hand, try to turn your hand to the left, thats the way
Funny this should pop up now as was about to go to the shed todo an oil change on the bike
excellent video thank you Ari
Some bikes have two drain plugs, eg. XR650L
