Its not a 636. 07 came with the 599
You forgot to a MAJOR part to this to show views. This with the new Oil Filter; Step 1 with new oil filter make sure to not let get dirty in anyway, Step 2: dip your a finger into the NEW oil only and apply a little oil with your finger on the ring of the oil filter before installation. Step 3 do not over tighten oil filter just about 1/4 inch turn after hand tightening. Reason for applying oil to filter o-ring is so it doesn't bunch up when tightening improper seal = potential leak.
Thanks for the video. It's gonna save most viewers alot of money. Its much easier then I first expected.
Awesome video man. I just got me one of these bikes, and was worried about finding a video to teach me to do a few basics, this video along with your spark plugs video were brilliant.. so glad you did them, THANKS!
Helpful vid, I just bought an 08 zx6r and thinking of doing the oil change soon.
coat the oil filter seal before install, will come off easier when you do your next oil change. It also helps let the filter seal not bite on the engine and slide, that way it wont bind up and kink on the filter, causing a leak. And oil filters are HAND TIGHTEN ONLY. Never tighten with wrench or filter cup. Manufacture spec for oil filter tightening is 3/4 to a full turn of the filter after its touching the block. Any tighter and it will be overkill. Will be almost impossible to remove next time
Nice video bro also just a side note the 636 engine was discontinued in 06 the 07 and on engines are 599cc not slammin u just passing some info
@06675Daytona ya i only got the fram because they didnt have the filter at the auto parts shop. I ordered a K&N to change it before I go to Daytona bike week.
Torque wrench is also definitely on my Xmas list.
great video, i have question
don't you drain the oil first (open the nut & drain oil) then remove the oil filter? or it doesn't matter
Nice Video man! Thanks, it helped a lot.
Gave a good general idea on how to thanks
Just did this on my ZZR 600, thanks man
Nice video dude, going to do mine tomorrow, was going to leave the filter cause I CBA taking off the plastics but obviously you don't have to lol.
Cheers.
How do identify that I poured enough oil? I mean is there any visual metrics so I can be sure that it is enough?
No prob. i was learning on this bike as i did them. just passing along the knowledge
@Chevvy82 Thanks man!
Ya I just got the bike so Im doing everything on it as well.
Ya thats the oil I use in Florida. Recommended by the manual.
Dont have a video for the coolant but its not too hard to figure out.
I have a video on the spark plugs which you wanna do every 7500 miles.
You don't have to. If the filter sits sideways I don't, If I can put some oil in the filter before installing it and I know it wont spill out when I am screwing it on to the housing I will put a little in there. Its not necessary though
not sure but they have several tools at any autoparts for removing oil filters
so when you took your oil filter off did you make a mess all over that side of the motor (water pump, plastics, block)? I didn't expect much of anything to come out after I had already drained the oil but got a lot all over the side of the bike and soaked the foam on the bottom fairing. at least next time I'll know to make a little oil ramp :-)
should you fill up the filter with oil like you would with cars?
Thanks for this video. I need to change my bikes oil after I ship it.
Also Rotella T6 is a good oil that's inexpensive at Walmart its JASO MA certified which is wat Motorcycles take
What did you do with that lucas gas treatment?
@Sean Kennedy good tips for the rest! Thanks
thanks bro this really helps......you should have like a donate site so people could donate like a $1 if they feel like you saved them money......look it up and thanks again
WHOA! Lol, i was hella surprised when the camera started floating out of nowhere.
You are pretty tall. Is it un-comfy for you to ride or did your body adapt? I am 19 and 6'2 and I just purchased a 2007 zx6r yesterday and I had a 5 hour drive home I was so sore. So I hope my body adapts,
Did the same today (3 litres) looked full, started it up and let it idle for 5 mins and the level in the glass drops as the oil works through the engine.
Great video!
hey, how many quarts did you put in? I did 3 and looked through the glass and it looks full. Bike is level and all, just seems odd
Who the hell cares what engine size it is? Did it help you change your oil or not lol
how many liters of oil thakes the zx6r 08?
Well its not a 636 but a 599 cc but great review. I haven't riden my bike in like two years. I am start riding soon, I finally have the money to fix what some vandals did to it.
@IIIQBIII Not a problem. I was in the same position as ypu which is why i made the videos
Good video... But the be only takes 3.2 quarts and next time you should drain out then remove filter! Oh yeah and we have the same bike. It's "NOT" a 636 it's a 599 which is a 600. 2008 ZX-6r. Thanks for sharing the video with others though. Ride safe.
The first time i changed the oil it took me ages to get the filter off it was so tight, i ended up having to punch a screwdriver through the whole thing, I had to put so much force I needed a friend to hold the bike down. When I put the new one on I made it hand tight only, one year on and I'm changing it again- I cannot get it off, I've got the tool everything it is TIGHT be warned Also the manual says replace the air filter IMMEDIATELY after riding in rain.... I wouldn't pay too much attention
There are measurements on the oil bottles. So you can see exactly how much youre putting in
@serghie roman
@B0o0o0gieMan Correct. Open the oil cap and drain oil. When it.s almost done draining, then I take off the filter.
the frame actually comes black in this yr model
Good video. two things to note though for others. when you put the new filter on make sure you apply some oil to the seal on the filter to make sure it doesn't leak. second make sure that you dont over tighten the drain plug when putting it back on. most blocks are made of aluminum now and can be stripped pretty easily by over-tightening them. nice bike
sucks where Kawasaki placed those oil filters, add to that how tight they are from the factory.
it should be.
"front bottom" he he
its not a 636cc its a 599cc
Well ill go off what every tech ive ever met has told me.
The manual was probably written by small people with small hands...got the hint? If you are an American biker (or most countries with good size men). You should have more than enough strength to tighten the filter beyond it's torque spec. Most oil filter wrenches are not made to install oil filters. Just remove, such as the one in this video. I've been working on cars since the 90's, trained by a 40 year master mechanic. You tighten any filter with a wrench in a shop and watch the laughter.
the 2013s will be 636 again according to the wiki
not sure but they have several tools at any autoparts for removing oil filters
