Great video, thanks. I would suggest highlighting the recessed centre bolt on the crankcase cover though, which can be missed when removing that cover. The crankcase cover should easily remove once all the bolts are removed, with nothing but a light tap.
Melly and I enjoyed the video. I always enjoy seeing how things work and how to service them. If the video didn't have music it would almost be one of those ASMR vids that are all the rage. Well shot and well lit. Easy to understand even without any dialog. I could do the same service just by referring to your video. Well done. Cheers Bro 🍻
Wow, very detailed, I really have to save your video. Thanks. Can you please show a video showing gear and bearings replacement or checkup also for Xmax 300.
Eventually I'll do it. I would do it now, and loads of other stuff but my Xmax doesn't need that job done. If I got a sponsor or some sort of income from this channel than yes, I would do many more maintenance and upgrade videos. As it sits, I cannot change parts just for a video.

Hi Alex wonderful video on v-belt replacement. Question..whats name of the tool you use to hold tight the hub to prevent turning during dismantling the centre bolt. TIA.
It's a clutch holder tool. I made my own, the one you see in the video. There's pictures of it a few comments up. i.ibb.co/jL5CR74/20200823-200833.jpg i.ibb.co/0V862nj/20200823-200850.jpg
Olha, olha quem ele é 😁 Tens jeito para os videos,tens meios ,continua.😉 (bem melhor que eu🙂) Ps:o vareador da minha estava a abrir mais que esse,o parafuso do vareador teve de ser tirado com maquina pneumática para pesados, exageraram na cola 😆 Abraço
O parafuso do variador é uma questão de alavanca. Como disse Arquimedes, dai-me um ponto de apoio e levantarei o mundo. Eu uso uma chave normal e um tubo como extensão, funciona sempre. O video ficou um pouco longo mas parece-me melhor e com calma que quem vê este tipo de video procura informação. Mais virão, outras motas e outros temas.
Viva! Neste caso uso limpador de travões (brake cleaner). Este produto tem inúmeras aplicações. Além de, obviamente, limpar travões, limpa contactos e desengurdura como nenhum outro. Com um spray destes e uma escova de dentes velha deixas tudo como novo! Nós discos de travão, por exemplo, é só aplicar e deixar secar.
They don't need grease, it all spins as a set. Sure, the secondary sheave slides on the shaft but any grease could be centrifuged to the sheave making the belt slip. The Yamaha service manual does not call for any lubricant of any type, they actually warn not to allow grease to contact the primary sheave assembly. Just make sure everything is spotlessly clean when you assemble it and you're golden! Ride safe!
Can consult what is the distance between the holes on the variator? Which variator/clutch holding tool did you use? Any link? mine seems a bit short. Thank you very much.

@@luiscarlosredondoaguirre4345 No, the spacer does NOT need any grease. In fact, if you used grease, the centrifugal force would eventually carry the grease over to the variator making the belt slip. So.. No grease, WD40, motor oil, nothing. just make sure it is clean. At 20k , make sure to change the spark plug (see my video) , change the motor oil (video coming) and replace both air filters. Eventually, the valves will need checking (also a video coming on that) and the forks will benefit from fresh oil. Both these jobs are easier that the belt replacement, believe it or not! For now, I'm just waiting on parts. Ride safe!
a little... impact takes off the clutch nut... the variator bolt is a different story. Never had an issue with any other scooter I've worked on until I attempted to replace the vbelt on my XMAX... I have a 400 ft/lb rated impact, the variator bolt won't budge, guess I could buy a stronger impact, but a DIY removal too is a lot cheaper.
Ups, that's not good! i.ibb.co/8zFnYmG/Screenshot-20210606-221549-Drive.jpg As you can see, the torque value is correct. When using a rachet torque wrench make sure to rotate it back a couple of "clicks" otherwise it might not work. I've seen it happen loads of times, maybe that was your case.

Hi.
Do you know the size of the V-belt?
I don‘t want to get the OEM part because it costs like 130€.
The internet doesn‘t seem to know either…
No need for "size", there's a reference number.
Aftermarket belts prices, in my experience, don't vary that much from OEM.

With it I know for sure that it fits and that it will last over 20000km.

I use Tengtool. Not as glamorous as Snap-on or Facom but still a nice option at a very reasonable price.

In fact, if you used grease, the centrifugal force would eventually carry the grease over to the variator making the belt slip.
So.. No grease, WD40, motor oil, nothing. just make sure it is clean.
At 20k , make sure to change the spark plug (see my video) , change the motor oil (video coming) and replace both air filters.
Eventually, the valves will need checking (also a video coming on that) and the forks will benefit from fresh oil. Both these jobs are easier that the belt replacement, believe it or not!
For now, I'm just waiting on parts.
Ride safe!
at 2.33 those two bolts allow you to lift the air box without taking the cover off. unnecessary step
Impacts would have made short work of this job.
a little... impact takes off the clutch nut... the variator bolt is a different story. Never had an issue with any other scooter I've worked on until I attempted to replace the vbelt on my XMAX... I have a 400 ft/lb rated impact, the variator bolt won't budge, guess I could buy a stronger impact, but a DIY removal too is a lot cheaper.
I broke the screw when I used torque 115 n.m. Tomorrow I have to call to dealer to get a new screw :(
Ups, that's not good!
i.ibb.co/8zFnYmG/Screenshot-20210606-221549-Drive.jpg
As you can see, the torque value is correct.
When using a rachet torque wrench make sure to rotate it back a couple of "clicks" otherwise it might not work.
I've seen it happen loads of times, maybe that was your case.

Bloking the handle against the rear clutch is a big mistake
Why?
Because of the long lever, at the point of contact there's hardly any force.
You could put an egg there and it wouldn't break.
Everything is,very slow in your video
What is that tool that holds everything from moving?
