    That tiny bit of oil you flush by dry cranking isn't worth it in my opinion. I wouldn't lean on the film strength of used oil.

    I thought KTM suggested tilting the bike over & filling the filter holder area around 1/3 way with oil before putting the filter back in?

      That's right. Rocky Mountain also gave an oil change and missed this vital step. Lots of self taught gurus' on RUclips mate. Trust but verify, they are not all as smart as you think they are. That goes for 3.5 and 4hr oils changes ROTFL. What a clown

    Quick question, where/how do you dispose all those chemical waste-products? Most Auto-Zones in my area always say their collector is full or want to know exactly what is in the waste. Oil and contact cleaner don't make a nice combo for collection spots. I want to be ecologically conscious.

    Just bought a 2023 KTM 250 XCF. This is my first four stroke ever ! Have always used Bel-Ray in my bikes for over 45 years with EXCELLENT results for all my two strokes. Do you think the Bel-Ray EXS 10W 50 is a very good ? superior ? or is it an inferior oil to use in this bike or any of these new four strokes in your opinion ?

    How much oil you running in the gasgas MC450F? (Same motor as the ktm as you know)
    And what other oil can you recommend as I don’t get the shell rotella here in South Africa .

    Question, I just drained my oil in my 2010 yz 450f and put in the 1 quart that it’s supposed to have (from what the owners manual says). I notice that when I start the bike, the oil goes to the top of the sightglass and starts bubbling a little bit. Looks like air bubbles floating to the top. Do I have too much oil!? Need help!

    ... he never did tell us why he didn't warm the bike up first. Along with a few other things. Also 4hrs is ridiculous unless you're using mazola vegetable oil.

    • @dirtbiketv1
      @dirtbiketv1  2 года назад

      I didnt warm up because its all at the bottom of the engine after sitting- as for the other deal -- you must not be around much racing but regardless of what oil you use it can be as early as one sand/mud moto and your oil is shot in 40 minutes. Or over 8-10 if easy trail-dualsport riding. Thus its a good idea to simply check how your oil looks after changes and then go longer or shorter based on that. You sound like a smart guy so I assume you can see that and tell. Thanks for watching --

    • @peterpedant
      @peterpedant 2 года назад

      @@dirtbiketv1 Its not about being smart, its about personal experience. You say 8-10hrs for easy trail-dual sport riding? My KTM 450exc has over 525hrs on it, oil & filter changes every 50hrs (using only motorex oil) just had its FIRST top end rebuild and the cylinder still had the original cross hatchings present and didn't even need re-plating. just a new piston, rings & timing chain and valve seals. I ride in all conditions, including sand (in the summer) and Mud (in the winter).
