Thanks. I’ve actually been changing it based on how it looks. As soon as it gets dark enough where I can’t see the metal piece inside the spyglass I change it. That’s been more frequent than recommended but I don’t mind.
You should wear gloves. engine oil is bad for you. Same crush washer does for years. 2.75 quarts! why don't you all go metric instead of 50/50? Good video.
Nice and easy vid to follow the steps! I got a brand new mt07 last year but got a ”problem” when changing gear especially 2-3 that it feels a bit harsh and hard. Like a small boom when changing gear. Is that normal for the yamaha bikes?
Thanks! That doesn’t sound normal. I’ve never had any issues with the transmission. I would get it checked out. If it’s still under warranty I’d take it to Yamaha.
It happens with the FZ25, when I change gears from 1-2, it does make a sound. Check the idle rpm, it’s supposed to be on 1,300 rpm and check the chain tension
@@rebellucy6200 that’s interesting. Double check the chain tension as mine became too loose a couple weeks after purchasing. If that looks ok I’d suggest taking it to the dealer for inspection. Best of luck
Nice, oil and filter change is cheap insurance, do it guys, it only takes 10 minutes 😀
Exactly…very quick and easy job. 👍🏼
Nice review on the MT07 oil change procedures. Thanks...

Thank you 🙏🏼
At the begging I got scared when you were losing the oil nut since it was too tight. My FZ25 oil nut needs just 15 foot pounds torque not 32
Yes, the mt07 manual recommends the drain bolt be torqued down to 43 nm or 32 lb ft.
As long as it's between those two lines it's good right? I mean does it have to go max?
Great vid. Do you do it more often than they recommend? If so, how many kms or miles do you go?

@@Kmoto530 Cheers mate. I think I'll do the same. Love my MT. Ride it every day rain hail or shine.

Thank you for watching and your suggestions. 👍🏼

I have a new 2023 and experiencing hard shifts also. Did you get it fixed or serviced? I was planning on taking mine in to the dealer.
