  • Don't be afraid to work on your bike!
    That's right, if I can do it so can you and it'll save you money and you'll enjoy the fact that you're learning your bike.
    It can be intimidating working on a motorcycle if you've never done it before but learning is pretty easy these days and for general maintenance like changing an air filter or the oil is actually quite easy so get in there and take care of your bike!
    In this video I'm just doing some routine maintenance on my 2020 XT250, air/oil filter change, fresh oil, and making sure my chain is still good to go.

    Two things to add. If you are going to do any kind of work on any Metric bike, you need a couple of JIS screw drivers. Look just like a Phillips, but won’t round out screw heads. Vessell is a good brand, but there are others.
    Also, get a box of black nitrile gloves.

    Thank you for the xt250 content 😁
    I just picked one up for my father to ride on the back roads. Can’t wait to outfit the bike with a few accessories, love what you’ve done with yours. Thanks again for all the info. New subscriber here!

    Just bought a 2013 with 7800 miles yesterday, did a small teardown oiled some components, pulled the air filter out and it's a K&N, I'm thinking on going back with the stock filter, I have the "recharge" cleaner and oil but think the stock does a better job of trapping the dust and debris..

    More good XT content, as always. The only suggestions I would add, at times, would be air pressure checks, battery checks/maintenance and fuel quality checks. (I like to use a little Seafoam in my gas to keep injectors clean.)

    I love maintenance on my XT250…. Not so much on my XT1200 though. Just the air filter alone you got to take off left and right panels, lift the tank, and about 20 screws just around the air box.

    Good stuff - I enjoy fiddling with my XT250. However, I cannot work out how to remove the side of the airbox with the steel filter in it. Have you done this to yours...?

    Thank you for the video sir! Where do you get your replacement parts from, filters, crush washers, engine oil and such? Thanks.

      You're welcome, thanks for watching! I usually just stop by the dealer since they have theses things in stock but buying online is just as easy. Rocky Mountain ATV usually has oil change packages that generally include what you need.

    What do you use for chain lube? What kind of chain?

    • @precipiceofgrind
      @precipiceofgrind  7 месяцев назад +1

      Stock chain and usually have a can of Honda chain lube or recently I got a couple cans of Yamaha off road chain lube, both work fine. Guess I could use WD40.
