- Honda CRF250r Oil Change on Engine and Transmission is a somewhat long and in depth video. This is my little brothers 2006 crf250r and we decided it was time to change out the oil so we recorded and made a video. If you like it please subscribe!
“oil tastes pretty fresh to me” 😂😂
Haha
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Helped me change my oil so no complaints from me 👍
When checking engine oil, dip stick only needs to be placed in hole and checked when bike is level. (Not screwed in)
Well done. It made my first time changing fluids much easier. Thanks for the video
Billy Sharp Glade we can help! You enjoy the ride and stay safe!
Hey Billy sharp, that's a cool name
Explained pretty well if you’d ask me
I wish anybody will make video like you do, thank you
Haha thanks!
Yo I Just Did My First Oil Change Last Night Off This Vid! Bike Hasn’t Been Started In 3+ Years. 🌊💯💯🌊
Aye! Good thing you freshened it up a bit before starting!
What happens if I put too much trans oil and I used Lucas but I think I put to much in. Having trouble getting in neutral now. What if I put to much oil in. Can get into neutral. Please help lol
@@ElJefe100 50 or 100 extra ml shouldn't be too big a deal. Wouldn't go more than 50ml extra normally though
There's also a transmission check bolt that's an 8mm to check the level. Should be a slow drip coming out while the bike is standing level.
I used Yamalube in my 1985 KX 80, good stuff.
Thank you. Very clear, I am about to do my first oil change after watching your video.
Isn't your transmission oil level check bolt just under and to the right of the big ass fill bolt you keep taking off .
Yes it’s the 10mm bolt with the Phillips head
You’re supposed to use the same oil which is Honda specific, GN4 10w-30 for engine and transmission and there’s a check hole below your water pump
The manual says to use the same stuff, but in a bike with separate engine and gearbox, there are a lot of good reasons to run fluids more specific to the task. The transmission runs a lot cooler than the engine, and a high quality ATF is good for a wet clutch transmission. And for the engine, you can take advantage of a lot of higher end synthetic oils that you otherwise couldn’t run in a shared oil setup because of friction modifiers.
@@adambergen7250 glad you know more than the engineers that made the bike!
I'm planning to change my oils and filter soon as they arrive.. this video was a big help, thanks
Fun fact, i have the exact same scrapes on my left side aswell. If you sold this at some point i have it now 😂 or its just a coincidence. Also they don’t come with a washer from factory, they aren’t actually needed, the oil wont leak as long as the threads are good and sealed
thanks bru i deadass didnt even know that the tranny oil and engine oil were separate
Good vibes, you taught me a lot
Thanks for the video. It was helpful for new bike I got
No problem glad it helped!
Thanks awesome video. I’m about to do my first oil change on my 2021 crf250rx !
You just filled up the engine oil and drained the transmission. The transmission oil fill is on the other side of your bike. What year it your bike?
I have a 2016 crf250r, based on the user manual, the trans and engine oil specs are the same. Should I just use 10W-40 on both side?
Yes they recommend you use 10w-40 for both engine oil and transmission oil
@@aidanwinters4019 thanks for confirming. I wouldn't have to worry about the gear oil.
Ya i just went thru the manual an it says plain as day dont use anything with moly added its bad for ur clutch an stuff so the gn4 is what u wanna use for both engine an trans
Very good video
Glad to help!
Thanks for the great video! Huge help! I almost dropped the bolt in the drain pan laughing at “burp if you need to” 🤣
Michael Dunn 🤣 🤣 🤣
can you use the 10W-40 oil for the transmission as well? I'm thinking it'll still work. I'm coming from Yamaha dirt bikes where the engine and transmission share the same fluid. I add the 10W-40 oil and go ride.
This guy is wrong. You use the same oil for engine and transmission. GN4 10w-30. It has to be Honda specific
طبق سایت سازنده باید برای هردو روغن 10w40استفاده بشه این آقا اشتباه میکنه
Hello I just Got Crf 150rb 2022 expert and manual is saying to use the same 10-30 oil on transmission side should i ?
Go on a little test drive nothing crazy: goes full throttle down the road
Haha had the sudden urge I guess..
Very helpful thanks man!
Great video but it’s supposed to be 10w40 on both sides instead of 10w40 and trans fluid
I asked the same thing. Based on manual, it should be 10w-40 on both side. Am I wrong?
@@ralphnickoloefeliciano2120 it is 10w 40 all around except for the forks and brakes
I like using gear oil though with additives for cleaner performance. It’s all about changing frequently in reality. Full Synthetic isn’t the best for wet clutch.
@@ralphnickoloefeliciano2120 نه شما کاردرست انجام میدهید وسازنده هم همین رو توصیه کرده
To check the oil you don’t thread it back in
Yup. That makes the oil on the low side if you do that. Never thread it in like that.
Right on guys good video and well explained for the newbies out there! Keep killin it. She still running?
Thank you! Of course she’s still running she’s a Honda! Haha but actually not sure because we sold the bike a while back. We do want to get something again!
@@golfandcats Good point I'm definitely biased to hondas! Too bad though you should get another toy!
Lmfaoooo i put the same honda 10w 40 engine oil for the engine and transmission is that good!?🥶
10w40 gn4 good for both engine and trans. Says right in the manual so you should be ok.
You don’t screw the dip stick in to check just a tip put it in with out screwing it in
Did you actually taste the oil?
Lmao 😂
Dude the HP Trans Oil bottle has a notice on the label that says "Pro Honda HP Trans Oil is formulated for the use in 2-stroke transmissions only." You just put it in a 4-stroke motor. The owners manual suggests "Pro Honda HP Trans oil, Pro Honda GN4 or HP4 (without molybdenum additives) 4-stroke engine oil or an equivalent. Viscosity SAE 10W-40." You might want to point that out in case the 80W/85W may ruin someone's transmission.
No it’s for 4 strokes
It’s trani not engine
What it is yall?
What transmission fluid weight are you using
boss is your 250 hard to start cold?
I know this is way late, but what fluid are you running in the transmission? I run 10w-40 in the engine but I’m not sure the transmission?
hey dude i have a question my crf 250 has been puffin a little bit of blue smoke out of the exhaust what can cause that everything is fine im thinking about wrong oil in the wrong compartiment ?
Super help and bike life quality
Great how to big thumbs up from me👍🏻
Thank you!
i found 2 or 3 aluminum slivers in the oil filter there about 1/4 inch long and dont know what there from
You probably miss shifted jk haha
Don’t worry about it just keep monitoring it each time you change the oil.
Great video Man U gave me a lot of help! I have a crf450r
I’m glad it helped! Sold ours but maybe get another one someday..
Im confused tho cuz the manual recommends that u ise the honda gn4 n if using other no additives.. so what is moly an what is better to use for oil? I have a 07 crf450r
What did you end up using
@@kingryan1232 i stuck with what the manual an honda recommended lol 😂 figure they would know best
@@dopedickinsonbb8359 okay thank you so the gn4 by honda and did you use same for transmission?
@@kingryan1232 yup 👍🏻 thats exactly what i did homie
@@dopedickinsonbb8359 thank you I appreciate it I just want my 250r to last for ever
Nice video man, thanks.
My bike is pretty hard to start but after it’s warm it starts right up what might it be?
It could be a lot of things. What bike you got?
4wheelfunBros Crf250r
Check your valve clearance. They tighten over time and can make it really hard to start, also try this method when the bike is cold: choke on, 5 slow kicks (not hard enough to start the bike) 2 or 3 throttle twists then give it a good kick.
JJM I’ve tried that I think I need a new spark plug because it’s misfiring and backfires
If it’s hard to start and missing, spark plug is a cheap thing to check but if not sounds like valves
what happens if you put your gear oil in the engine oil without starting can u just drain out
will it damage the engine its already drained will flush through with the right oil it hasnt been started
Yeah just drain it out and refill. You’ll be fine. If you really worried you can do a drain/refill twice.
Can you use the Honda gn4 10w-40 for both?
Yep. Straight in their manual it says its good for both engine and trans.. the 10w-40 gn4.
Honda recommends the same oils because the gearbox oil lubricates the balancing shaft as well.
Good video
Thanks for taking the time......BUT wear a helmet always pls. Safety first.
No problemo! And yes I agree my lil bro was just too excited but still gotta throw it on all the time
Shut up
how much ml do you fill the engine oil & transmission?
600ml I think he said
For the transmission too?
I know this is an old video. Its not the besst oil its above conventional its a good base oil. Why wouldnt you run a oem oil filter. Those are the best ones bud
I honestly do not know. I forgot they actually have OEM oil filters for this bike!
4wheelfunBros they are factory tested and if it fails honda will fix the damage
Soo helpful thanks
No problem!
“taste pretty fresh to me”
باید ازروغن 10w40درموتوروگیربکس استفاده کرد هردو یک روغن میخواهند طبق ساید هوندا ژاپن
Very good ,am from brazil ,i have crf250x...
Thank you!
tqvm brother
Hope this is a joke because he put the wrong oil in the tranny. Both sides use 10w40 4 stroke motorcycle oil.
I think this video is backwards, oil on oil filter side trans fluid on kick start side
You are right, he was backwards. Hope he didn't hurt his bike...
Nah yall just dont know what ur talkin ab lol. That bike would have blown if he did the oils backward. Trans oil goes on kickstarter side and oil goes on oil filter side.
Your a funny guy
Your transmission oil is actually your motor oil and your motor oil is actually your transmission oil. Great video but I'm afraid you got it backwards..
J&B Nelson Nah dude have i do this exact method for my ‘13 crf i use 10w-40 pro synthetic for engine oil and 80/85 pro honda transmission oil for the tranny side. The bottle literally says transmission oil on it. Handbook even tells you that. Ik you can also run the same engine oil in each side of the cases if thats whats ur talkin ab.
@@redrider2503 OK COOL! I Was Looking For This Answer Because On The Manual, The Trans/Engine Oil Reads The Same. So It's Cool That I Use The Same? Mobile 1 4T.
Mr Orchard Beach Personally that method is not preferred. Most swear by pro honda trans oil 80/85 which i do as well and pro honda 5w-40 or 10w-40 engine oil depending on the temperature where you live. Theres tons of youtube videos and forums online describing it more detailed hope this helps.
KX only has Engine oil. No transmission oil.
Hey Billy
Cheers
Bruh said oils taste fresh to me LMAO why dude just change it 🤣
“Peace of mind” 😂
Sup brother, I went to check my oil filter before and when I tightened the long bolt(top one) it snapped inside the case. Should I take off the cover and remove it myself or what?
Yeah, since it snapped you will have to remove that cover anyways. Do that and see if you can get a grip of the remaining bolt and try to spin it out. If the bolt snapped inside the crank case and you can’t freely get a grip of the bolt I suggest you take the bike to a machine shop or someone that has experience removing snapped bolts.
4wheelfunBros thanks bro, how much do you think it will cost for a bolt and gasket?
yuhhdizzzy depends where you get them. I’d say around 25 bucks
4wheelfunBros oh cool, im having my Aunty go into the shop tommorow and im gonna remove the case cover to remove the snapped end early in the morning so my parents don’t find out😂 do you have any tips for removing the case?
Oh lol I see! I can’t really remember but all I think you gotta do is remove gear lever and then all bolts to cover. I suggest you look up a couple how to videos on that before starting. Hope it works out for you!
Omfg he just fuckin tasted the oil
Isn't it a dip stick not a screw in stick dip it don't screw it
Why do people have to explain every move...I think I know I'm supposed to put the bolts in the hole and tighten...just show us how to do it if we don't know how to do the littlenstuff we shouldn't be trying...sheesh
Thank you for showing me exactly where the drain plugs are. Oh wait. You fucking didnt
skate boarder yea he did dumbass
While your at it u can tighten your chain😂🤷♂️
That could have been the next video but unfortunately the lil broski decided to sell the bike:(
Chase Conway chain looks good to me
Swear
Did he just taste the oil😐💀
Can you put automatic transmission fluid in the transmission?
Matt I do on my two strokes I don’t see why you couldn’t usually you should use type f auto trans oil
How much oil goes in the block?
u dont show what U doing visually
Yo 4wheelfunBros ? check out synlube motor oil. They use it in NASA and on the rover robot on Mars. it last about 100,000 miles or 10 years or more. Also check out, a waterless coolant call "EVANS cooling systems", you never have to change it. you can buy "EVANS cooling systems" on Amazon but Synlube you have to call in and order here the website below.

Will do!
Definitely Russian
Nazar Nakonechny Not really actually we took our sweet time!

Wear some gloves
How much oil do you need to the engine
