I can’t seem to find the update video. I know this was quite a long time ago but did you post one? How did this work out? I’ve got an old 1991 model and seems to be a fine running machine so I might leave it alone.
I did post one quite some time later. The bike seemed to run better but that was only "seat of the pants" type stuff. I actually haven't seen that particular Nulon product for sale lately so I assume it's been withdrawn from the market. Personally I'd just do the regular oil changes etc on your bike and leave well alone. Thanks for commenting and ride safe.
Yeah thanks for the vid I bought Kawasaki 10w 40 synthetic oil that's better than that Castro isn't it and is that alright for the DR 650 because they are real specific on what type of oil you should use because of the wet clutch I think my oil will be better though I hope I only have a Kawasaki dealership near me and I own a Suzuki dr650 which I love
@ratnest00757 Hey thanks for your concern. But this Nulon treatment does not affect wet cluches. As mentioned earlier it bonds metal to metal not fibre and metal. With regard to the oil. I have had no issues with this oil and I know of DR650 riders in the outback of AUSTRALIA that use the very same stuff. Out their it gets very hot believe me. So if they use it so will I. The oil gets changed every 5000klm's and is running like clockwork.
@ratnest00757 Good for you. What are you riding at the moment? I've read a lot of the the oil debates and theirs heeps. Because temps in this part of the planet rarely exceed 25degC I am of the opinion that "magnatec 10w40" is fine in the mighty DR.If there are any specials going on diesel oil next change I might try that.
Just did mine and only 1.9L came out blowed out with air pump! After putting new oil in 2.3 L and let it run for few minutes shows way to much over the full line! Should I remove extra oil?
Although not as clean as using a syringe and plastic tubing, after tucking a few rags below, loosen the filter cover and you’ll remove up to a 100 cc at a time.
@xAlSharptonx Approx 2.4 litres and boy was that stuff hot. Thanks for commenting i hope its of some help. Just be careful of the oil filter spring when you remove the cover and filter.
You do realize that you aren't suppose to use friction proofing oil in a motorcycle because they have a wet clutch Also the oil you used is designed for car engines not motorcycle engines which has a gear box the viscosity index improvers are certain to get rendered ineffective as time passes as a result of getting compressed within the clutch system and gears not to mention the heat that will be generated in the bike could go outside the heat range of the car oil
Oh bull wacky. One does not an oil flush. Just get the engine hot, let it drain for awhile, I am never ever in a hurry when it comes to oil changes, replace the filter and refill the engine to the correct level. Use the correct oil and filter too.

@UaEsKnight Thanks. Fuel economy looks like it has improved but really to soon to tell. Also gear change seems smoother. Will report later.

B Man Sounds like a good oil. I'm sure it will be fine in the DR as long as you don't tell the oil its a Suzuki :-}
Thank you for that good video it helped me a lot with my DR.
That's great. I'm glad it helped in some way. Thanks for commenting and ride safe!

wow, theres a lot more oil in that little engine than i though!! thanks for the video, im sure ill be referencing this later

How do you keep your engine so clean??
Just did mine and only 1.9L came out blowed out with air pump! After putting new oil in 2.3 L and let it run for few minutes shows way to much over the full line! Should I remove extra oil?
Probably a good idea to drain some out. Then start it up for a minute and shut down ,Leave it for two minutes and then check level. Ride safe.
@@MothershipVideos will do that, any tips for to pull out extra without removing nut?
Syringe and some plastic pipe?
Although not as clean as using a syringe and plastic tubing, after tucking a few rags below, loosen the filter cover and you’ll remove up to a 100 cc at a time.
Thank you very much for the vid
good job.
keep em comin please
thank you for the video
Thanx a lot for the video
Thanks. Do you still have your DR650?
Where is the little o-ring that goes between the filter and the case? Check the diagrams.
What are you talking about numbnuts?
Just regular washing I guess. Might do the occasional gravel/dirt road but not often.
No problem. Remember it isn't the DR oil change bible just the way I do things. Happy riding.

WTF are the last 2 seconds of the video????
Mate that was recorded on an old Sony Hi8 tape Camera. Can't have cut it out when editing. It was rather strange I must admit. Thanks for watching.

Perhaps you could post a video showing everyone how it's done properly. Ride safe.
