2023 KTM 390 Adventure Oil Service & Filter Change
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ย. 2024
- Hello and welcome to the episode, today I’m performing the first service on my 2023 KTM 390 Adventure. I’m performing this at 300 miles and as appose to the 600 miles as manufacturer recommends, but in this video you will see why I’m doing this prematurely, so stay tuned until the end.
right, so the first thing you want to do is start the engine and allow to idle for 5 minutes.
while its idling remove the sump guard with a 4 mm hex bit as shown
put all your bolts in a pot so you dont lose them
now switch the engine off
place a suitable under the bike, it will need to hold just under 2 litres
using an 18 mm socket remove the oil gauze filter bolt, its important to use a 6 sided socket as a multi groove socket can damage the bolt heads.
allow oil drain for a minute
using pliers gently remove the gauze filter
now look at the state of this after 300 miles, imagine waiting 600 miles. but at least its doing the job
using an 8mm socket, remove the oil filter cap as shown
using a small pick or flat driver, remove the oil filter, do not pry on the engine casing
now there is one more drain bolt in the centre of the engine
using a 6mm hex bit unscrew the bolt, make sure the hex bit is inserted all the way in to avoid rounding the bolt. you can remove the sump bracket for easy access.
you can still see that this small filter has collected more metal filing
remove the oil filler cap
you dont have to do this but you can tilt the bike left to right in order to drain the oil from the edges of the sump.
spray everything down and clean with a non microfibre cloth
clean all the parts
normally you would replace this paper filter but i will doing that in another 300 miles,
time to reinstall the parts, using your fingers only, screw the lower sump bolt in and tighten to 12nm
now push the left oil gauze all the way in.
screw the 18mm bolt in with your fingers and tighten to 15nm
push the paper filter in nice and firmly
push the cap on and make sure its flush all the way around
install the bolts and tighten to 10nm
give everything a wipe down
add fresh oil to the engine, i put 1.2 litres in for now and the inspection glass level was on the minimum
install the cap, start the engine and allow to run for 30 seconds.
now let the bike sit for 2 minutes
add the rest of the oil until the inspection glass mark touches the max mark as shown
i used 1.7 litres of oil in total
when checking oil level its very important the bike is on flat ground and sitting upright
start the engine and check for leaks while its running.
install the sump guard as shown, you can use some grease on the bolts to stop them corroding in the future.
final check on the oil level
here are the tools you need.
a clean cloth, pliers, small pick or flat driver, 18mm socket, 4mm allen hex, 6mm allen hex, 8mm socket, appropriate oil, parts cleaner, and a suitable draining bowl. please take your old oil to your local garage or recycle centre.
right, the last thing to do is take the bike for a 10 minute test ride, come and join me.

I think this is your most Zen oil change video yet. 😊 My own method is less beginner friendly as after removing the pan protector from the bottom of the engine I ride the absolute Snot out of my bikes shifting through every singoe gear up and down and then immediately dump the oil knowing full well it is at maximum full running temperature. The reason being is I want to flush all the gears, clutch plates and settled shed clutch material up into suspension within the hot oil and them dump it out removng as much suspension junk as I can leaving a super clean engine to put new clean oil in. I did not want to leave sediment and spent clutch material (think sand paper or brake pad material) in the engine only to pour new oil in and seal it and then immediately mix up the settled junk in the motor and load the new oil up prematurely with junk. You cannot get this level of service when a dealer or shop sevices your bike so you have to do your own oil changes to get this level of flush on oil change. But beginners won't like the risk of burns if they are sloppy at removing the oil bolt. Dealers and shops won't run bikes in for service to temperature and if you rode your bike to the dealer flogging the Snot out of it then it will only sit for ages in the work queue before a technician gets around to it allowing all the junk to just resettle removing any benefit to enhanced engine life.
You are absolutely right, this is why I do my own work.
Hi Nick. Another useful maintenance video, especially for those who haven`t done much home maintenance before. Ride safe 👍
Cheers Dave
Nice video. Easy to follow. And with what we need to use and torque settings too. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Good video, I usually use diesel to clean oil passages.
Diesel is an excellent cleaner
Looking forward to the execution of the VALVE service - performed by YOU 😀😀
Yes I will be doing this at 10k (if I still own it then lol)
Excellent Nick. With respect may I suggest copper anti-seize on bolts instead. You were definitely right to do this at 300 miles, especially with KTM's somewhat dodgy reputation in some countries for how they honour their warranty.🕊
Absolutely
Better to replace the filter kit then cleaning and using especially the oil filter
See my next video
Nice and informative video. Interesting to see how the 390 engine oil change is done. Good practice to half the oil change intervals.
I have a 790 Duke and I can see some similarities in parts and ideas of prefilter screens and such.
Maybe the 790 engine oil change is easier cuz every bolt and cover is on the same side of the engine block. Cheers!
I wouldn't mind a 790 myself !
The battery on my 2023 390 Adv died just after 150 miles. Of course it was not covered by their warranty.
Too many loop holes with the warranty. That's why it ain't worth the paper it's written on.
Hi, first thing first? a great thanks for the torque value. And now, how do you reset the "maintenance" warning ?😀
At the end of the video
Lovely vid! Max chill 😅 What is the spray? A car detailing APC or something?
It's brake cleaner. Cheers for watching
Lovely job bro.. cheers and love from India 🤗
Thank you !
Great video. Was hoping the lower filter was the same as the standard Duke 390. The exhaust appears to cover it and looks a pain to remove.
Oh damn
I'm considering changing my oiil 1 month before scheduled service since I'm going to Arctic Circle Raceway next weekend. Fresh oil while giving her te beans would just be a precaution
Sounds like a good idea
I appreciate the videos on basic maintenance. They add variety to your content. Could the oil filter be coaxed out with a strong magnet? It sounds a bit mad but would prevent clumsy people like me scratching the casings.🙄🤗
its worth a try, i'll give it a go as I will be doing the first service in a couple weeks (at 600), it will be a similar video but with 300 mile update with additional safety checks, adjustment and chain tension. ( i know i said i was going main dealer but i'm going to do it myself again)
@@nicksepisode I'll look forward to that. Pleased that my suggestion wasn't just bonkers!!
We will find out haha 😄
Nick,
Did your oil change help out your shifting and finding neutral. Great idea to change the oil soon to get ride of all of the break in swarf in the engine. Wishing you and Jodie the best.
Hi Rick, Yes, changing the oil helped a lot. Bikes has now covered 1200 miles, and it's spot on.
Not sure about spraying cleaner where the filter goes chance it may enter the engine.
This cleaner evaporates, so all good
What did you spray from that white bottle, Nick?
Brake and clutch cleaner
@@nicksepisode ❤ awesome thanks
A very informative video 👍
Glad you think so!
Nice post Nick...
Were you using torque wrench? Is it okay to use normal wrench?
yes, be gentle on the oil filter bolts though
What liquid were you spraying in your pressure bottle to clean with?
Brake cleaner
Are facing any oil decrease problem in ur bike after every 2000kms. Because am using motul 10w50 engine oil in my 1 month old ktm 390 adventure. . Do u think castrol is good?
Castrol is good. Yes oil consumption is high in this bike
What is the spray you are using to clean it?
brake cleaner
I need to get out more if you’re on 300 miles already 😎👍
Enjoying the weather while it's good ! Lol
I did the same thing. Filters were dirty with particles. Why wait?
yeah exactly
whay u re use the oldoil filter its bad for re use .
This is replaced in the next 300.miles
See my other video
Good informative video.
Some people just like to waste oil I guess. You gain nothing changing at 300. Peace of mind maybe?
You see the swarf that come out. It was definitely worth doing
He reuse the old filter
I replaced it after another 300 miles
Am i correct in saying that you are a mechanic
indeed
@@nicksepisode and a man of few words 👍🤣🤣
@@johncollins2966 absolutely
@stevem7797 I wouldn't recommend loctite
, these are prone to corrosion here. No idea why the manual suggests that.
