Triumph Tiger 1200 - How to Change Engine Oil & Final Drive Oil
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- I'm doing the 800 km break-in service for my 2018 Triumph Tiger 1200 XRx. Other than the regular checks and inspection, this service involves engine oil & oil filter change, as well as final drive (shaft) oil change. I go through these procedures in this video.
These are what I used:
1) 4 liters of Castrol Power 1 (or Power RS) Racing 4T 10W-50 Engine Oil (www.amazon.com...)
2) K&N KN-204-1 Oil filter (www.amazon.com...)
3) Motul Gear 300 75W-90 final drive oil (www.amazon.com...)
Thanks. I have the 2020 Tiger 1200 Alpine and a 2019 Indian Springfield in my garage.
For anyone watching, fill the new oil before putting on the filter. The manual makes it very clear there is a risk of air locking the oil system on these engines if you fail to do this, if you don't know what that means your engine has a very high chance of failing if it does form the air lock.
The procedure you’re mentioning is for the new tiger 1200’s (2022 model year onwards). For the gen3 tiger 1200s and earlier (like my 2018 tiger), the manual states fit the new oil filter completely before filling new oil.
You can refer to the oil change procedure for the gen3 tigers here: api.triumphtechnicalinformation.com/handbooks/documents/624329815b05bf5ce5065128/pdf#page176

Thanks Dave!
Very helpful presentation. Thank you. I have the exact same bike.
Good video! Thanks!
Funny, I have a 2018 Tiger 1200 xrt and a 2021 Indian Springfield as well. Thanks for the video!!
thanks bro for all the info, i just bought a 2023 tiger 1200 gt explorer and i got a 2022 fatbob , some how we both owned 2 bike lol
I just bought a 2017 Explorer 1200 and own a Electra glide ultra limited.
The rear fiel drive, you can do 50000 miles without change in the oil
Recommend only using the nut on the oil filter to undo.
Recommended in manual to fill oil before putting oil filter on 🍻
Hope you meant filling oil in the new oil filter before fitting it :). Filling oil in the engine before fitting the oil filter will leak oil :)
@@eazyontwowheels You need to fill until it just leaks before fitting filter otherwise you risk an airlock (on these engines).
@@daveo9844 someone else recently made the same comment. Which model year tiger do you own? I’m guessing it’s the newer gen4 one which has this potential air lock issue? The gen3 and earlier tigers (like my 2018 tiger) don’t have this issue and the manual states fitting the new oil filter before filling engine oil.

@@daveo9844 ah yes, gen4 then. I checked the manuals and the oil fill procedure is slightly different for gen4 (2022 model year onwards) in that oil needs to be filled before fitting the new oil filter. This is not the case for gen3 and earlier :)
The best way to change the oil on the bike is after a long ride,
Come si fa il reset Service change oil manual?
the washers are regular ones, or special (made by specific metal)?
Regular copper washers
What's up, bro? You have 2inch chickens Stripes on your rear tire.
This is a ridiculous comment at anytime, but especially at the 800km break in service!
Agreed....
