  • This is a "how to" video, showing viewers how to change the oil and an oil filter in a motorcycle. It was a fast filmed video so some things may not be correct. Everyone has their way of changing oil but this is how I do it. Hopefully the video helps. Feedback is much appreciated so I can do better in the next video!

    It would be useful to warm up the engine and check the oil level as a final step for this video. Cheers!

    What about the oil screen that’s supposed to be cleaned at every oil change?

    • @bigacefilms
      @bigacefilms  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You are correct. I didn’t add it but should have mentioned if oil change is done regularly it will keep it from acquiring large debris.

      Not necessary....If you check it once...and know your bike , with a healthy motor and regular oil changes....I leave mine for about 3 years between inspections.

    11/16ths wrench?
    Kawasaki (Japan) make metric bikes, shouldn't that plug be metric?

    • @bigacefilms
      @bigacefilms  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You are right, it is a metric bolt size. The wrench I suggested is another alternative for those who don’t have metric on hand. Good catch Beepbop!

      @@bigacefilms saw on another video that the plug is 17mm. I picked up a 2005 model yesterday and will be changing the fluids this weekend. Thanks for the informative video!

      I did my first oil change in my new to me 2005 Vulcan 1600 classic last weekend. I also removed the oil screen while doing so and am glad I did because it had a lot of debris that looked like metal shavings.

      I no longer have my Vulcan. If I did I would’ve done a video on it to assist. This other TH-camr has this video th-cam.com/video/rG_-ETsu0Uk/w-d-xo.html hopefully it will help out.

      Thank you! I could attempt one. I’ll look into it. Mine was is already a year old so I may give it some more time. But wouldn’t hurt.

    • @bigacefilms
      @bigacefilms  ปีที่แล้ว

      Si je comprends bien votre question, pas pour les plus grandes tailles de moteurs. Ils ont besoin de plus d'huile.

    • @JW-bw8nj
      @JW-bw8nj ปีที่แล้ว

      20w50 oil is commonly used in air cooled v twins like a lot of Harley Davidsons, but most liquid cooled bikes, like the Vulcan in this video, require 10w40 oil.

    11/16 socket ? Bike is Metric. 17 mm is the correct socket.
