Thanks so much for your work on this video. Yeah, I never change the oil outside like you did. Ground is so unstable. I always change my oil in the garage with a hard flat surface. In addition, since I do not have a "lift" I "tie" off the bike with rope from the overhead rafters. I don't want to have my fat head squished by a falling bike. Be safe and good riding. Go Indian!
Thanks for the comment! I actually just did this one outside for the video. The lighting in my garage, and the chipmunks and garbage make for poor videos. Haha.
Thanks. yes, camera was very clear. Yeah, watch those rodents. My friend had a hangar and those hungry little critters chewed up his tires and some of the electrical wires. Thanks again
I have an inch/lb torque wrench I will likely use for tightening. Those are always good to use.
If you say so….
Great video! Thank you my friend!! 🙏🏼
My original filter was on so tight i crushed the damn thing before it finally broke free.
I suggest a torque wrench to the 5 N/M specs for the plugs. It's amazingly not as tight as you think.
That’s a good tip - i don’t like to suggest a torque wrench for non structural or non critical parts. If you know what you’re looking for though its a great tool
Personally if its not a critical fastener i prefer to see a rotation distance. complexity can sometimes lead to more problems then it solves.
Ex: clean well oiled threads on your plug vs. a dry plug and receiver thread, or dry plug and dirty receiver threads can give a totally different final ‘stretch’ on your plug threads if going by torque alone. A quarter turn from tight is almost impossible to mess up.
You can try the Fluid Extractor by OEMTOOLS. I’ll be much easier I think.
