    goddamn excellent video.
    Perfect angles and lighting to see all the work/locations. Love the fact you CLEARLY showed which bolts, wires, parts, etc to remove, and which new spark plugs you used. Fantastic attention to detail

    Damn fine video man!
    1 good thing about the 2nd Gen ('03-'05) is that the air box and fuel tank were seperate. No need to disconnect lines, instead of syphoning gas, you could prop the gas tank from the pillion seat latch, it's not a fantastic solution, just unless major component word is needed it can come in handy. You can still do all this and then some without needed to mount the bike to a stand/wheel mount.

    Isn’t bad to remove the fuel tank? I read somewhere it let’s air into the fuel lines. Correct me if I’m wrong please

    • @ketchupmustardracing
      @ketchupmustardracing  Год назад +3

      I’ve never heard of it being bad personally, but to rid the fuel lines/system of air bubbles; i always flip the key switch with the starter button on multiple times to prime the lines and push out any air. The short noise you hear from under the tank is the fuel pump priming the fuel injectors for startup, it starts right up with no issues for me if I make sure to prime it after I’ve removed the tank for service.

      Priming the ignition switch and running the fuel pump would pump them lines right up and the sparks would take care of the air

    I’ve been trying to find one for weeks, does anyone know what the piece above the battery is that holds the seat in place is?

    • @jekpom
      @jekpom Месяц назад

      Late af but are you asking what piece holds the seat in place? There’s a hook that slides into a hole at the front of the seat, and two bolts on the end where you have to pull back the cushion that holds it in place.

    Do the coil packs rotate, or just pop out?

    • @ketchupmustardracing
      @ketchupmustardracing  Год назад +2

      Yes, the Coil packs do rotate but alternatively they should just pop out. You can rotate and pull at the same time to loosen them up and pop them free… if that doesn’t work you can lighten wedge a screw driver under the plug end and try to pop them out but BE GENTLE; you can snap off the cap if you pry too hard!

      Two hours give or take, depends on how mechanically inclined you're and your toolset.

      No you can keep the fuel in, I suggest running it lower than full before changing tho just to be safe! 🤙🏾
