Thank you for this video it got way more into detail than I was expecting. I just bought my first xj600II and never have done any work on a motorcycle before.
Caution!! A good tip is to cover the air box intake with small aperture wire mesh (< 1 cm mesh) to stop mice entering. Some mice made a nest in the air filter in my Diversion, unnoticed because of the tank. The bike was laid up so was some time before I discovered the damage and I am still trying to fix it. Imagine what they produced over the years and where it went with all those breather tubes and the carbs down hill . . . . . . . . !! 'YUK' does not cover it.
While the music is nice. I wish you would talk through the video, so we could hear your thoughts and impressions. Sizes of bolts etc. is a time saver and sometimes the lighting was not great. Real time is not a bad thing if its learning time. Thanks.
buen video tengo una yamaha diversion 600 del año 99 y no hace falta quitar la caja de filtro para cambiara el filtro por lo menos en la mia , ano ser que esta moto seha diferente saludos desde españa
You say "don't forget to close the fuel valve" , but this is a vaccum operated petcock : only opens when engine is turning, unless it is in the "prime" position wich you tought was the "closed position". This is used to prime the carbs with fuel. eg. when you clean them or purge them.
@@hosuandreiremus I own a xj600 and the first problem I had with it was a petcock leak, this made me research a bit more on this subject. Your vid is very good btw Peace
The best performing oils tend to be synthetic and are typically in the low viscosity range. However most all bikes have wet clutches in which engine and crankcase use the same oil as such use half-synthetic type oils or mineral based oils (thicker) otherwise clutch slipping may occur.
Find It Fix It Hey man if you can even just get a video of them on the bike with the airbox and tank off it would be enough. I can get the carbs themselves back together, that's not the problem. I can't figure out the cable linkage and bracket mounting.

How did you get the airbox back over the carbs, ni on impossible. Perhaps heat
@@subjektivenoise Can you please help me in this, even if mine isnt in the prime position it still leaks. Do you know why? Thanks!
Buen vídeo, muy instructivo y fácil de entender. Gracias
Thank you 😀
how to repair the leak that is damaged? Yamaha no longer sells exhausts for the XJ600
How many screws does it take to hold together two lumps of plastic?
Great video!!
Alguien que me diga como es que va esactamente las mangueras que salen y entran en el filtro
Gutes Video, schöne Anleitung zum Service....nur die Musik ist nervig :)
ola boa sou do brasil rio de janeiro como eu consigo peças do motor da xj600 Diversion alguem poderia me informar
Hi There i have xj600s naked 2006, which engine oil should use?
thanks
I don't know. I am not a qualified mechanic and would not like to give advice. I recommend you check your owner's manual.
The best performing oils tend to be synthetic and are typically in the low viscosity range. However most all bikes have wet clutches in which engine and crankcase use the same oil as such use half-synthetic type oils or mineral based oils (thicker) otherwise clutch slipping may occur.
Very informative and well done video. Do this engines burn oil? Thanks for the answer and drop by when you can, you may like my content.
Hello bro could you help me I have 2 ou 3 question about how to connect the some stuff on the bike
I no longer have the bike and not sure how I could help.
THANKS!!!
Good luck
is it 10mm fuel filter for the xj600?
I can't remember. It was a long time ago when I had that bike.
That sucks they put the air filter in upside-down. Had to remove all that crap.
I can't figure out how to get the carbs on my 92' back together. Help pls
Not sure If I can help with that. Never had to take mine apart.

I will try and get that in the next week or so. I am currently having an issue with the throttle and I think it is coming from the cable linkage.
Find It Fix It Thanks bro. It would be much appreciated.
Have a look at my new video. Not sure if it will help very much, but I tried to take a video of the carb from all angles.
Very nasty air filter position. Its like this bike was designed by renault
I think this is a common location on bikes of this age
