This could not have been produced any better than you have done. It was clear in sight and sound. There were multiple shots for clarity and interest, the pacing was spot on, and you included every step. You are a natural born director!
I just did my first oil change on my 2011 CBR 250r and because of your video took about 10 mins LOL! THANKS AGAIN FOR SUCH A GREAT VIDEO. No BS straight to the point!!!
Just got done with my first oil change. It was a breeze thanks to your tutorial. Thanks a lot! Keep posting! My stupid Honda dealership wanted $165 just for a straight oil change.
VERY GOOD VIDEO THANKYOU. No bs, no rants, or tangents. Just straight to it with great camera angles and explanations you can actually understand THANK YOU
Very clear explanation, good video and audio quality. And you explained it very politely. Did not miss any detail, just perfect!!! Loved watching it and defenitely very useful.
Thank you Brown Brady, I look forward to your maintenance vlogs as they are truly Canadian in content. Good tip on the new oil filter needing to be loaded and then the engine topped up. I may have missed this but not now.
Great video, the best CBR250R oil change video on RUclips. I changed my oil and filter a couple of weeks back and forgot to undo the filler cap before I removed the sump plug, made a bit of a mess!
+Munday182 Thank you for the kind words. Yes, that has happened to me in the past as well, especially when I change the oil in my car. The good thing about changing the oil on a bike is that it's so easy to clean up the mess.
This video is perfect! I'll be changing my motoroil for the first time and I was kinda anxious to do it alone (as a girl), but now I'm much more confident it'll work out. Thank youuu!
We have same motorcycle! Same year too, mine is just all black. This is a good tutorial. I’m planning on doing my own oil changes, so this is very helpful.
Damn, they almost got me for $150 and I said the same thing after watching this. I bought supplies to do this two times for less than what I was about to pay for one oil change and chain cleaning...
I change my 2011 cbr250r oil once a year at the end of the year..whether it needs it or not :) needed a little refresher course before getting to it this fall...nice vid..very well made..subscribed..
Great video! Changed my oil today and had a couple of comments. (1) I partially removed both middle cowls to allow full removal of under cowl. Not too hard, didn't take much time and gave me great access to oil filter. (2) I used all dealer parts. Dealer pulled part number 15410-KYJ-902 for the oil filter number which did not match what I found online initially. I called the dealer and checked online and confirmed 15410-KYJ-902 is a direct replacement for 15410-KYJ-901. It fits just fine. (3) As recommended in video, I too recommend using a funnel to pour new oil in (after trying without and spilled some). (4) Old crush washer on my bike was wrong size and was fairly difficult to remove i.e. inner diameter too small. This is why I tend to avoid dealers for service work. Why pay $90 labor for someone to use the wrong parts for such a simple task? Not the first time I've had someone use wrong parts for an oil change. Geez. (5) Didn't find online prices much cheaper for parts so purchasing at dealer seems to be best choice for me. (6) Bike on rear stand works well for this task, allows a normal drain pan to fit beneath bike and provides a little more working room (can put kickstand in up position).
I missed this video in August i put the bike away on Dec 27th I had the dealer do the first service (recommended by them) to to change the oil & check the valves. Excited to do this myself early & i mean early next season!
Excellent video, clear explanation it was easy to understand, I've just bought a CBR250r so your videos are like an online academy for me, keep the good work!!!
I just finished my oil change. My only concern is: the oil in the sight glass never filled. I put in a litre of oil. I don't have a bikestand but surely it should show it was filled? I idled the bike watching the glass and no change. No level drop but it's as if there's no oil in there at all.
Seems your bike like your family member.. So clean and well maintained. I am planning to missing company free servicing because they messed up with my brakes and chain. Actually they applies engine oil as a chain lube. I scold them all when I seen this.
i got a 2013 as well and it smokes when i drove it fast for a while like not alot of smoke it was barely visible and i notice it once i smelled something was burning stopped and checked bike but nothing its just a very light smoke with cable burning smell it continuous if i drive fast. i looked around the bike and i dont see any leakage maybe cause its just a light leak and burns it all but again neither oil or coolant is going down ? it been like a week since it started and i had that issue like twice so far
I HIGHLY recommend removing the left side fairing. The lower front screw for the oil filter cover is WAY too hard to get out of there if you don't. Sorry, I don't have miniature hands, but they are not big by any means.
Hey Brown Brady, I was wondering if you know how to replace the oil filter screen, I think it's a metal screen. I'm having a hard time finding info about this, I think this might be the part: 15421-KYJ-900 SCREEN, OIL FILTER
+Bruce Nguyen ok I found this for a cbr125 so maybe it's the same, it's hidden under the clutch cover, so that means you have to replace the gasket so maybe I should wait til I have to replace the clutch pack
So I snapped one of the bolts for the oil cover.. (I used a torque wrench). Also, the oil filter was missing the spring. Any insiggt? , I haven't driven yet.
well such a nice informative video to watch... having a 2013 cbr 250r myself made me love watching your videos.. hoping to see more videos relating to cbr 250r. need to know when to change the oil .. i mean after how many kms?
Hi brownbrady great video very easy to follow. I’m having trouble loosening the bolt to release the oil it’s locked it pretty tight. Anyone has advice on how to loosen the bolt?
I'm assuming you're talking about the oil drain bolt or plug. First, make sure you're turning it counter-clockwise if you were facing the head of the bolt. Also, make sure you're using the correct socket with a long extension, and not a wrench. If you still cannot loosen it, stop before you round the bolt. You can also try an impact wrench, or try a penetrating lube spray.
If you know that you're using the precisely correctly sized socket ( and I'm not talking about one of those sockets that aren't "squared" and have easily 16+ little teeth...use a regular squared socket with 8 sides to it), if you can find the room. use a hammer be it a rubber mallet or metal hammer to tab the end of your ratchet to gentle break loose the drain plug. I have to do that sometimes on my civic si 05's .
Thanks for the advice! Wish I read your comments before forcing it and squared off the bolt lol 😆. I had to go to a mechanic to replace the bolt, and i changed the oil about a year ago. Im about to do it for the second time this afternoon and needed a refresher from your video. Thanks heaps! Really helpful video keep up the great work
Thanks for the video, helped immensely. I bought 1 litre of motor oil and although I could see it going in, the lvl never rose to the markers. How much is needed? I read up that capacity is 1.5 liters.
Great video Question I just did an oil change on my cbr250r and there is steam coming from the engine when you turn it off. It comes for few seconds when you turn off the engine.is that normal.what would the issue be??
Hey @BrownBrady, is it ok in your opinion to add some oil into the oil filter and then put it in to avoid air bubbles? I usually do that. Also, have you tried Motul 300v10w40?
Great video by the way.Very nicely done. Do you think that soaking the new oil filter in new oil before placing it in the oil filter cover would be any help ....just wondering...
+Laurie Bass I don't think it would since it would get soaked anyway once you put it on. The only potential advantage I think would be that the gasket would be pre-soaked and would provide a better seal? Not sure.
I jst changed the oil and oil filter along with the Gasket.. Bt..when I start the bike and ride about a Km.. smoke comes out.. and i can see oil leakin out frm filter cap.. wht should be done brother?
This could not have been produced any better than you have done. It was clear in sight and sound. There were multiple shots for clarity and interest, the pacing was spot on, and you included every step. You are a natural born director!
This should be the standard of DIY videos. Step by step and direct! Awesome work bud!
Thanks!
I just did my first oil change on my 2011 CBR 250r and because of your video took about 10 mins LOL! THANKS AGAIN FOR SUCH A GREAT VIDEO. No BS straight to the point!!!
Man! Right to the point, no unnecessary talking, informative and enjoyable. I wish more DIY bike videos were as professionally done!!
Just got done with my first oil change. It was a breeze thanks to your tutorial. Thanks a lot! Keep posting! My stupid Honda dealership wanted $165 just for a straight oil change.
WTF !!! how dare for $165.. OMG
Lol highway robbery for something that should be under 40
VERY GOOD VIDEO THANKYOU. No bs, no rants, or tangents. Just straight to it with great camera angles and explanations you can actually understand THANK YOU
I appreciate your clear/ slow/ deliberate enunciation!
One of the best diy video on all internet :)
Very clear explanation, good video and audio quality. And you explained it very politely. Did not miss any detail, just perfect!!! Loved watching it and defenitely very useful.
This is the best DYI video I have ever seen.!
Hands down the best video about this topic.
Thank you Brown Brady, I look forward to your maintenance vlogs as they are truly Canadian in content. Good tip on the new oil filter needing to be loaded and then the engine topped up. I may have missed this but not now.
Very nicely made video mate. I need to learn from you.
+The HeartBrokenBiker Your positive comment is appreciated. Thanks!
The high quality of this video surprised me. Thank you.
About to change my oil for the first time. Best to know how to DIY so you can save money. Great video! Thanks for the help

Bruh, and to think I was about to spend $170 to get this done......your video is perfect
Damn, they almost got me for $150 and I said the same thing after watching this. I bought supplies to do this two times for less than what I was about to pay for one oil change and chain cleaning...
Just changed the oil of my bike after watching this video. Thanks.
Thanks for making a clear video, I just did my first oil change with your help!
Glad it helped!
Very nice job creating the video, BrownBrady. I'm about to change my wife's bike's oil and you helped a ton. Thanks.

+spdklls7 I'm glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching.
I used this to change oil in my 250 R as he did I did. First time I did since riding the bike. Very helpful. Thank you
Excellent video! Thanks. I just purchased a 2013 cbr250r and plan on performing all service on it myself.
Great choice, Mark.
Great vid for those new to this. Tutorials are very helpful. Looking forward to the next one BB.

Great camera work on your tutorial video. Thank you for putting in the effort. Very helpful to new bike owner.
what a great video I just did my first oil change on my cbr250r thanks to your video, thanks a lot
This is a great instructional video. It is exactly what I needed. Going to change my oil right now....thanks!
Great video. My neighbor has a 250 and I was struggling to find the oil filter (I have a 600). Your video was perfect!
Excellent tutorial. One of the best I’ve seen. Well done!
here in brazil honda recommends using 10w30. When changing oil, use a total of 1.5L. many are having problems with lack of lubrication in the engine.
You do great videos man! KEep it up!
+Your Fast Life! Thank you!
+BrownBrady like your video very much.....keep up the good work
Liked and subbed. Amazing quality and detail. Thank you so much. You just saved me a lot of money.
+RyuRanBodomFan I'm glad it helped and thanks for the sub!
You've got a great tutorial narration voice. 🤟
Very well explained. Just did my first oil change. Thank You!
Very good! Concise and no-nonsense! You're like a Human Haynes Manual! ;)
Are the same parts for a 150R. Great video. We live in Bermuda where the max engine size allowed is 159cc.
Nice vid. Thanks. Will come in handy for my next change
Glad it helped.
i come here every year to watch your video lol
Clear instruction, easy to follow. Good shit just what im looking for.
THANK YOU MY BOY BROWN
Make video for changing front and rear disk brake oil and coolant separately of CBR 250R ... It was helpful video..
You definitely deserve more Subscribers bro
This was the most helpful video I found. Thank you!
Thank you, this was really straight forward :)
Thanks man I appreciate it! I wasn't sure about 1 part and you definitely helped me
This has been done beautifully.
Absolutely excellent, clear video - thanks

Does the oil line still read accurate if the bike is tilted forward ?
Hey my friend thank for the video, i learn a little about this bike. Regards from Medellin- Col.
Amazing video man. Thank you, and great job.
Seems your bike like your family member.. So clean and well maintained. I am planning to missing company free servicing because they messed up with my brakes and chain. Actually they applies engine oil as a chain lube. I scold them all when I seen this.
Is it possible to change oil filter later as it was not available during engine oil change?
Very clear and easy to follow, thank you
i got a 2013 as well and it smokes when i drove it fast for a while like not alot of smoke it was barely visible and i notice it once i smelled something was burning stopped and checked bike but nothing its just a very light smoke with cable burning smell it continuous if i drive fast. i looked around the bike and i dont see any leakage maybe cause its just a light leak and burns it all but again neither oil or coolant is going down ? it been like a week since it started and i had that issue like twice so far

I HIGHLY recommend removing the left side fairing. The lower front screw for the oil filter cover is WAY too hard to get out of there if you don't. Sorry, I don't have miniature hands, but they are not big by any means.
+tomfarr56 Good recommendation. I agree, those screws on the oil filter cap are hard to get to without removing the bottom fairing.
Hey Brown Brady, I was wondering if you know how to replace the oil filter screen, I think it's a metal screen. I'm having a hard time finding info about this, I think this might be the part: 15421-KYJ-900 SCREEN, OIL FILTER

Also, the oil filter was missing the spring.
Any insiggt? , I haven't driven yet.
Same thing happened to me last week while I was putting the last bolt on. Have you ordered a replacement bolt for the oil filter cover yet?
Hey I was wondering if i could use the same replacement parts on my CBR 125? or are they completely separate models?
well such a nice informative video to watch...
having a 2013 cbr 250r myself made me love watching your videos..
hoping to see more videos relating to cbr 250r.
need to know when to change the oil .. i mean after how many kms?
Great vid man. Thanks a lot. Got a new sub !
do u recommend synthetic oil if the bike is stored outdoors during cold weather and switch back to regular oil when the weather gets warmer?
Where did you get the bike stand with the flat pegs on the side
Thanks, helped guide me to change my oil and filter.
Hi brownbrady great video very easy to follow. I’m having trouble loosening the bolt to release the oil it’s locked it pretty tight. Anyone has advice on how to loosen the bolt?

Thanks for posting your question on my channel. Your question has been featured in the January 2018 episode about swingarm spool and lift stands.
Thanks for the advice! Wish I read your comments before forcing it and squared off the bolt lol 😆. I had to go to a mechanic to replace the bolt, and i changed the oil about a year ago.

Hi there,
Helpe me please, I put I little too much oil after the change, it exceeds the 2 lines for far.
What should I do?
Great video
Question
I just did an oil change on my cbr250r and there is steam coming from the engine when you turn it off.
It comes for few seconds when you turn off the engine.is that normal.what would the issue be??
is there any way to put the oil filter on backwards
Hey @BrownBrady, is it ok in your opinion to add some oil into the oil filter and then put it in to avoid air bubbles? I usually do that. Also, have you tried Motul 300v10w40?
I m here after the years but can i know from where you got that parts
my cbr 250 make rattling noise from front plz can you tell me how i resolve it?
Hello, What is the dimension for the oil drain bolt gasket ?
I HAVE A QUESTION, WHEN YOU POUR THE OIL, THE LEVEL HAS TO BE IN BETWEEN THE 2 LINES O ABOVE OF THE 2 LINES?
Would it be ok if i don't change the oil cap gasket when I change the oil? Or is it a must do?
Thank you for the video. Not spending $65 per oil change
Can you just use a front stand to raise the bike or do you have to use a rear stand?
another great video! thanks!
+JaxYamaRican Next-Gen Motovlogger Awesome. Thanks for watching.
Great video by the way.Very nicely done. Do you think that soaking the new oil filter in new oil before placing it in the oil filter cover would be any help ....just wondering...
+Laurie Bass I don't think it would since it would get soaked anyway once you put it on. The only potential advantage I think would be that the gasket would be pre-soaked and would provide a better seal? Not sure.
It'll help......make a mess
i like pouring a good amount into the filter before hand. gets messy sure but also prevents air pockets from being trapped inside your beloved engine!
Can I just use a regular 12mm washer?
is there any difference at all between the 2013 & 2011? I have the 2011
Please do a video on changing brake rubber for cbr250r
Nice simple explanation!
Gracias por siempre bueno hombre :D . Thanks forever good man.
De nada señor.
I jst changed the oil and oil filter along with the Gasket.. Bt..when I start the bike and ride about a Km.. smoke comes out.. and i can see oil leakin out frm filter cap.. wht should be done brother?
Maybe you put on the filter on backwards, if that is even possible. Or maybe the gasket is not properly seated? I'm not really sure.
Hey bro I'm buying used cbr 250r 2017 model bike is pretty good but when I checked the engine oil level sensor was dry ,is will any problems ?
I have used only one litre of 20w-40 oil hw much oil is required for CBR 250r 2012 bike?
2.2L if you're just changing oil, 2.4L for oil and filter change and 2.7L total.
