After riding for some time the oil level went beyond max level . Now when i checked in the morning the oil level is at max level.. I rode it a bit and checked , it's perfect, but when the engine is piping hot, the oil level goes beyond max

Does the flip up part stay up when riding? Or does it not have an indent for that?

Yes it does damage camera. My IphoneXR camera got bad twice due to this once with lower CC motorcycle and once with higher cc.

The clearest, straight forward, easy to follow guide ever. I watched probably 10 other videos and come away scratching my head, this 5 min video is super easy and clear. Mate thank you so much.

This seems like a solid way to do it, indeed. For my MT-07 Yamaha recommends a different way with the bike on the sidestand (because the MT-07 doesn't have a centerstand) and measuring the distance between the chainguide and chain by pushing the chain DOWN. My dealer does it yet another way. He does it pretty tight. Someone elses recommendation is to keep it on the loose side. I follow Yamaha's instructions and your method to force the wheel forward by blocking the chain and sprockets. Brilliant tip!

Well that checked the diodes, and thank you for that! But I don't think it tested the regulator function at all.

Nice tips, not thought about double chaining it, but I am new to this! I've got two alarmed disc locks and a break lever/throttle lock. 1 chain and an anchor point, to be installed at this time.

The paint tip is idiotic

Im being maliciously targeted by a neighbour. The police dont care Once i got my bike back within 11 hours of noticing it gone... which is only a michigan 125 i use the following until i can use my BMW f700gs which is locked in a garage at an unknown location. 2 chains directly to a thick metal gate with rear wheel atatched to said chains 1 chain from front wheel to frame of the bike 2 alarmed disc break locks 1 clutch lock (buys me more time but doubt ill need it) A cover and bungie corded the cover down. Behind a locked gate with a camera facing the gate and me with a plethura of "things" i could use, im sleeping in the room attarched to the gate with the window locked open and an monitor always on to glance at the camera Fool me once... you'll never fool me twice I cant stand motorcycle thieves

What’s something I can use instead if I don’t have a dip stick?

👍

So the horn,.. you have to reach for it, so I'm gonna say it's your own muscle memory from other bikes, it's not really an issue if you own one full time

Hah! I also keep hitting the horn when going for the indicators. I'm a new rider, so its nice to know it isn't just me

👍

In most bikes you should not do that using the center stand. It's more precise using a paddock or the side stand. But I guess on your motorcycle is different. thank you for the video. It's great

Thanks for explaining the lock. I've been having some problems trying to figure the dang thing out.

Hello, You have to strech your chain. Excellent video 🎉

Put a shorty dump pipe on it and hand a bag each side.

@FabMotorbikes I’m facing an issue on my RE Interceptor 650. After riding for 10 minutes & crossing 2000 rpm, odometer light goes off.Downshifting or going neutral light comes up. I tested the following: 1. Battery voltage (Ignition off)- 12V+ 2. Battery voltage (Ignition on)- 13.1V-13-8V 3. Battery voltage (rev) - 14.1V-14.3V 4. Checked all 3 phase of Alternator. Could you please give me some leads on what could be the problem?

Amazing video man, might not be the same bike but you gave a clear gist of it. Looking forward to working on my bike more now

Forget the phone, what about your brain?

I wonder whether Honda will put the 1100cc engine in one.

Is it possible to fit a 15'' laptop in the side bag? What's with the optical illusion? Leaning to the right on the side stand; exhaust on the wrong side?

Use a rag instead of a wrench between the sprocket and the chain. Cool tip I saw in another video, except yours explained why you do it! Thanks!

Thanks a lot👍👍👍

When I use forward positive bias I get reading just shy of average in the .47 then .49 and on past node .51

Your English is so easy to understand for people who are not native speakers. Back in school we had radio plays to learn English and the protagonist had exactly your voice. It's kind of strange but also really cool. I would like to thank you for your first-class video about the Yamaha FZ6. May I ask where you come from? greetings from Germany

Great video

I gotta choose it over the Yamaha R7 just because of that E clutch but the R7 does look abit cooler

Too tight... can also damage the front sprocket spindle

I own a CL500, I use a waterproof roll bag that straps directly to the saddle itself. You don't need a luggage rack. Works great as a back rest for long rides as well 😂😂

I learnt the hard way. 1000% you need the vibration damper

One of the most annoying things I’ve noticed is the exhaust pipe keeps switching sides! 0:27

And he put back those junk plastic Yamaha screw who broke off 🤣😂🤣 , what a knobhead

What about the throttling problem RevZilla are talking in their scl500 review (at 12th minute mark)?

Straight to the point, no BS, well explained.. Perfect Video Mate 10/10

This video is old now, but it's exactly what I needed. My DR650 has been draining power for a few months now and instead of firing the parts cannon at it, I tried various ways to narrow down the draw. I first charged the battery and tested the voltage, then let it sit a couple hours and it was lower. I unplugged the fuse to my heated grips and charged/tested again, still losing power. I did the same for the stator, but it kept happening. I also tried messing with the ignition key as people say it can have issues, and removing it to charge/test, but it wasn't the issue. I took off the R/R and tested it just now like in this video, and I am seeing power across two of the three contacts in the reverse polarity configuration.

I wonder what is the experience of passenger riding with you with that big exhaust right there

:)

I don't know my bikes issue. The stater I tested the pins and they all passed both the ohms and current. The battery is 40 days old. Yet I have to use a charger to charge it. When I rev bike the voltage doesn't change on battery. Which means its not being charged but rectifier looked ok with the pin tests

In my country this one and triumph Bonneville t100 2009 cost the same. Which is better choice?

I used your video as a guide to change my air filter. Mine was also as yours, clean and looking almost new, but I did it anyway.

I had the same problem with a heavy clutch and I found out that someone had changed the springs and put harder springs on the clutch so I replaced them with standard springs and the clutch is perfect, the clutch is a lot lighter and easy to use in traffic makes for a better ride

Sure not a tmax

Isn't it supposed to be set with the rider weight on the bike

Great video, but should this normally be done with a torque wrench?

Good points but your chain slack is going to change with different weights on bike i always get my 2 kids to sit on bike when adjusting chain for my 90 kgs

This is exactly the knowledge I was seeking!! Thanks!

Great review of the new features thanks so much

Cant rely on The Markings look for tchain to runt straight instead.
