Yamaha R1 (07-08) Oil Change How To
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- In this video we demonstrate how to change the oil on a 2007-2008 Yamaha R1. It is relatively similar for other generations and models years as well.
The reason we use Rotella T6 is because it is one of the most widely available full synthetic oils that is Jaso MA approved, and that means that it is okay to be used in wet clutch systems such as the Yamaha R1.
Tools needed are a 4MM allen wrench, 17MM wrench or ratchet, and 3.1 quarts of oil.

Full Oil Change talking about race requirements and jaso oil.
Search for a video for oil change for my 07 R1. Have to say, best video on youtube for that bike. Good job
Thank you very much! We love feedback, especially when its positive.
Anything in particular you would be interested in seeing on 07-08 R1? We are about to set the bike up for intermediate track riding before october 16.
@@motomigos :D The positive ones are always the best. important to give feedback. I think maybe the chain, sprockets, adjust the chain :) i think its hard to also find detailed videos about the clutch, you know plates and whats inside the clutch house.
Absolutely agree lol
We have the chain and sprocket video already we just need to get a video on tire removal and itll go up
Thought about you should male a video about changing the clutch plates on a R1 07-08. There are a log of bad videos out there. I Think People’s are very interested in that.
Blessings brother! The vid is a must see for people who don't know🤘🍻 i actually have a favourite part haha when you crack open the oil🤣🤘🍻
Thank you! Gotta make the videos fun.
This I'd the ideal video right here
Thank you! Much appreciated!
New Zealand here bro. I have an identical bike. Mine is black with gold forks and gold levers. Im the 3rd owner. Bike has 19,000 miles on the clock and is very tidy. I paid $750 for some Two brothers slip on's and sounds great. How many miles should I do until the next oil change?. Once again .. A great video
If your only street riding I change my oil every 3-5000 miles when running full synthetics. Track riding or if your riding only consists of spirited constant hard throttle then drop it down.
Thank you guys 👌🏻😘
Your welcome glad we could help!
To avoid the filter oil on the headers, take that off while bike is on kickstand…Yamaha designed it that way
Good to know we will give it a try!
Did you really use Rotella? I know you can use a lot of different oils but what I was taught at school is it needs to be a Jaso approved engine oil for your bike. It has the right detergent and additives for motorcycle engines. Hopefully it didn’t do any damage. And no oil is not oil there are different oils for different engines.
Please read the description of the video or watch the video that's pinned in the comments. Rotella T6 is Jaso/MA and MA2 approved. Google would be a good friend in this case and could easily help you find a list of jaso approved oils ready to be put in your motorcycle with a wet clutch system. Also if you have a dry clutch requirements change.
@@motomigos I didn’t know that. Didn’t know Rotella was jaso approved. Cool.
Amazing 👍
Thank you very much. We appreciate the feedback. Anything youd like to see?
Will carb cleaner spray work instead of break cleaner
Carb cleaner will be better than nothing but carb cleaner can leave an oily residue. Carb cleaner will "most likely" be better than doing nothing at all but do your best to not leave an oily residue behind.
All the information I’ve read is saying 4.2 qt. So is it 3 or 4qts?
It is 3.1 litres not quarts. That was our screw up because we are used to measuring in quarts for American vs Japanese.
Why did you use 5w-40 instead of the recommended 10w-40?
That's because Rotella T6 only comes in 5w and 15w that is Jaso-Ma/Ma2 approved. They dont make a 10w jaso ma approved oil
@@motomigos hotter climates require heavier weight oils as oil thins more with heat, so 10w40 will be better than 5w40 in hot climate
@@gerardogle1732 You are absolutely correct. I deleted my comment because I had it backwards. Knew what I meant but said something wrong. (Deleted to not have incorrect information not to make you look anyway other than correct)
Hey, I’m looking at a 2007 r1 with 18k miles, everything is stock, he asking for 6k. He said sometimes the neutral light goes out. Do you think this would be a good buy & any problems with these past 18k miles? Thank you
I would check a few things like plastics to see if they have been replaced and cases. Beyond the abnormal the 07 08 r1 are great motorcycles. 18k miles doesn't scare me. The R1 in the video gets tracked often and driven cross country yearly on trips and has close to 25k miles. Check the maintenance on it and see if the owner seemed like he cared about taking care of his things.
18k is nothing on R1 if it's maintained properly. I have 08 with 50k miles, everything works fine. Listen for timing chain. Mine makes some noice, but i asked about it from certified Yamaha shop and they said no reason to open it up yet. And that many 25k driven have worse Condition chain.
I just bought an 07 R1 and that was what was wrong with it. The automatic timing chain adjuster failed on it. Currently waiting for the manual adjuster to arrive so I can put it all back together. Going ahead and doing a tune up and oil change while I have the engine apart.
Is it possible to use non 4T oil?? Wont the clutch suffer?
Rotella T4 is Jaso MA/MA2 approved who means that it is safe to use in wet clutch environments.
Subscribe for more.
What do you mean by non 4T oil?
Also wet clutch systems need Jaso MA/MA2 approval
@@motomigos I mean normal car engine oil
Normal car engine oil is NOT ok to use in wet clutch environments.
@@nihonkokusai additives in car oil will make a wet clutch slip
Crack that cold one🤣🤣

Please maintain your bikes looks more. It's a shame that it has rusted bolts and destroyed fairings..
The bike is a pure track bike and has bolts that are from a kit. All they do is hold plastic on. If you are willing to pay for oem bolts and fairings we will be happy keep the bike maintained to your standards. Otherwise we don't care what it looks like on the track.
