Usually I only replace bottom crush washer .If top crusher washer leaks replace, which is rare.Thanks for sharing.
Love your videos (yes - realize this one is a couple years old - but still applicable to people like me that want to keep these beemers going. Like your carboard idea - and got to the bottom of a paper towel roll (sure TP would be same size) - and put a small 1" slit at the top and it slid right over to capture the stinky gear oil!...
Another great video! One point about torque wrenches - get the "click" in one motion. It takes a very finite amount of power to get a thread started (esp. after it starts to seat the seal!)
As a beginning rider I desperately need to learn these skills. If at all possible, set a better angle as much of the video was your elbow, as nice as that elbow is; it would have been great to see more of the mechanics. Godspeed.
Good video, thanks
Grazie, chiaro e semplice !
Thanks brother great video. My brake lines are failing now...uuuug
Thanks, very interesting !!!
in my Rt the drain bolt is impossible to unscrew . I have tried with pistol warm and impact driver , but no way .Any suggestion?
I have a r1150rt I want to know if it's the same procedure / ml / oil?
Nice !
What size crush washers do you need ? Thanks
10:55 you say it takes it right up to the edge. I put in about 850 ml about 50 over and it was no where near the threads.... I checked and the best way is get a graduated measuring container (typically plastic and shaped like an inverted cone. The only way to go is VOLUME..... If you over fill a little I doubt much issue, but to the treads "seeping" seems to me to be too much.
one bottle of gear oil 80w90 is 750ml, it's missing 100ml !!!
Thanks, I was just looking to see how I would simply check the fluid level, but I gather that it is full if the fluid is just up to the bottom level of the filler opening i.e. concern was how do you check the level on a opening which is parallel to the ground (as opposed to vertical where you might use a dip stick). This works, simple and efficient I guess.
Also thanks for mentioning the importance or getting the precise torque level, as you are compressing the crush washer..
Hi. The gearbox/final transmission crush washer has the same size of the engine one?
Can you use copper crush washers
yes
bonne idée de changer de bidon pour prendre un avec verseur, vidéo très frustrante, soit c'est flou soit il y a quelque chose devant la zone interessante, il faut déplacer la caméra svp
I watched to see what funnel you use. You didn't, you used a Motul bottle 😂
You guys are brutal with your torque wrenching.. you said it yerself… I CAN FEEL IT… geeezzzzz .. head bolts.. Rod bolts , & Main Bearings… that’s the only things I use a torque wrench fer…. Or to whack someone…. Nahhhh… but really you do need a torque tool for anything done here…
i am a professional mechanic and i only use a tq wrench where I must. It is way better to use your feel to crush a washer. the problem is many people do not know the feel of a fastener
@@narcissistinjurygiver2932 THANK YOU…. I’m Sayin.. I’ve got an R1100 & I Don’t Need A. Torque Wrench For A Filter & A Drain Washer.. omg.. the millennial mechanics…
@@donaldleavy4379 yep. I have more control with out a torque wrench and I can feel how tight to make a fastener
I don't think squizing the bottle of oil is a good idea as it would add air.
Is that Darth Vader in the background?
What the heck is that noise in the background?
I think its the focus motor in his video camera, maybe he should change the gear oil on that ;) JK
Oops you already mentioned it :-)
It has been said before, but should be repeated for anyone seeing this for the first time:
OPEN YOUR FILL PLUG FIRST
Not only does it allow for better fluid flow fromt he drain, *BUT* should you not be able to open it (and have already drained the bike) you're dead in the water with no way to fill the bike!!
Darth Vader breathing :)
