I noticed that some service manuals now seem to try make some jobs look more scary than they are. The VStrom when I was doing the valves wanted me to remove the throttle bodies and everything, absolutely not necessary. Nice to have an actual lazy person like myself getting things done effectively :P I actually now do a little wrap of tape around dodgey driver bits as I've had too many close calls. Space to do valves doesn't look horrible. Ride by wire really doesn't look tasty :/ But cruise control tho......gerdammit. You didn't do the lick test on the old plug......missed opportunity. Very interesting to see my future bike being worked on :P Hahahahaha I love the honesty at the end :P As I said, we've all been there and it's not ideal. I type as I watch, I quote, "I actually now do a little wrap of tape around dodgey driver bits as I've had too many close calls." Tape is your friend my friend :D
The tape trick on driver bits is a solid idea I will use in the future!!! Yeah, I can't live without my cruise control anymore. Between cruise and a legit full windscreen I want to sell my ZX10 and upgrade to the latest gen. Lick test on the old plug?? I will take care of your future bike as if it is my own....LOL.
On the air box, if you remove the front bracket and velocity stacks the air box will lift up and tilt back so you can get to the plugs without removing injectors
Making it look easy. PROFESSIONAL!!!!
What a coincidence, because today I will have my 2nd service in the Suzuki Center :) price - about $400. Nice job bro!
thx.
Great sharing and nice video bro
Thanks again bro for fantastic video. Soon I have to go in there for other reasons and your video is top notch like always...
You are welcome and thanks for the kind words!
Damn magnets.

Looking good! I need to give you a jingle and see if we can meet up when I am in Colorado next month for a week!
Oh cool let me know
@@MonkeyButtRides will do!

Thanks for the tip!!! I bet that would work on my ZX10 to!
Now I know why my mechanic makes so much of my money.
Haha yeah, time is money as they say
I have 6000km on my gen 3 busa and the 2nd service is due this month. Should I change the spark plugs or keep then until next year? Thanks
@@drenkajdomcaj I would change them
