Thanks brother. Just trying to help people with the stuff I wish my dad had been or been able to teach me before he passed. I learned a lot of stuff the wrong and hard ways.
Thanks Eric. Hopefully helps some new riders out. Not the first video on this, won't be the last, but I wanted to make one as true to the book as possible to give people the confidence they need to take this on themselves.
I enjoy doing it on my bikes once a year. Its good to spend some time really up close with the bikes to keep an eye on everything and spot any issues coming up (if any) right away.
Hey Optix, double check the rest manual. Most manuals will give more than one oil rating. For example: "Between this temperature, and that temperature use ___ oil, but between this other temperature and that other temperature, use ___ oil instead." Usually there will be a table somewhere that will say this. As long as you're following what your manual recommends for the temperatures you'll do most of your riding in, I think you'll be just fine :)
I like how you can do it yourself with the ninja. So many reservoirs with my Harley. Yup looks similar except all I need is a 17 mm and I can get everything from a local auto parts store
Oh, I see. Most every bike is like this. I have oil change videos on both Italian and German bikes, same thing. Heck, I have oil change videos on the Sportster and V-Rod and they're normal like this. Big Twins do things weird.
Hello! Congratulations on a good video and the professionalism you show in it. Would you be able to tell where we can download or purchase the manual for the model(CB 500F 2022) you are using?
@@YouMotorcycle Is it the same as the 2022 CB500F? We are interested in how to check the chain play, whether it needs to be tightened and how to do it.
@@YouMotorcycle In the video, you show an original filter for Honda, and in the link you attached a compatible one. Where to order an original, on Ebay, Aliexpress there are ads, but how original are they. If you can give me some advice? Thanks!
Dear, I would greatly appreciate it if you could explain to me the reduced power of the HondaCB500X. It should have 35kw, but mine has 25kw. This is what is written in the traffic license. The motorcycle was bought used in Switzerland. What is the mechanical procedure of restoring 35KW??? Thank you.
I don't know. I'm in Canada. If I were you I would find a Europe based cb500 group, maybe there is one on Facebook, and ask them. They will probably know better
what year was this bike? i just recently got a 2023 one and im wondering if the specs are different. still waiting on the service manual to arrive that i ordered.
Truthfully I can't remember, it's a customer's bike, but as far as I know, while certain components of the bike has changed (suspension etc.) the engine has remained unchanged, so you should be fine. If you ordered the service manual anyway please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong so we can let others know.
I don't have any customers with that bike so I've never looked for it, sorry. I would ask in the CB1000R forum. If anyone would know where to point you in the right direction, it would be those guys!
Thanks mate, just wanted to check in.. According to the manual, you do not need to change oil and filter together, the schedule calls for an alternation.. Thus, many of us have been lead to believe that you change both oil and filter at the same time. What is your opinion on changing both oil and filter at the same time? Cheers mate.
Oil filters are cheap and I'm doing 90% of the job anyway. All it costs me is an extra $10 and 5 minutes of my time. For that I get peace of mind in knowing I've gotten ALL of the old oil out, and I don't have to wonder about whether or not I replaced the filter last time, or if I need to do it this time. I've spent tens of thousands of dollars on motorcycle insurance that I've never used, never had an accident/claim/theft/etc. Spending $10 on an oil filter is a lot better insurance for your motorcycle as far as value goes.

Just did my oil change watching this video! Very helpful
@@moparlyfe5689 that's awesome, thanks for stopping by! 👌🏻
Great of you to let the people know that they should be resetting the torque wrench to zero after use. Best days to you Adrian 👍
Thanks brother. Just trying to help people with the stuff I wish my dad had been or been able to teach me before he passed. I learned a lot of stuff the wrong and hard ways.
@@YouMotorcycle- Rodger that 👍
A very good tutorial on some basic maintenance that will save folks big money over the years. Great job. Eric
Thanks Eric. Hopefully helps some new riders out. Not the first video on this, won't be the last, but I wanted to make one as true to the book as possible to give people the confidence they need to take this on themselves.
Aaaaa thank you so much! I have my first 3000 mile maintenance coming up, and this made me a lot more prepared!
Thanks for leaving a message. Happy to help!
That's really simple. When I had my little 300cc the oil change was way different
Hope this helped :)
Wow thats very interesting I thought you would need alot more oil than that but very helpful video might start changing the oil myself now

Good video and advice ( t/ wrench ) as the cb500f is going to be my next bike that was very helpful. Thanks 👍
Mate, this is awesome video. Just planning to do small service on my cb500f myself. Thanks allot.
No problem. Glad it was able to help you and thanks for leaving me a comment I appreciate that! Enjoy the CB500F, it's a great machine.
You told people they can use any oil so long as it's the right viscosity. You should have made it clear it MUST be motorcycle wet clutch oil.
You're right. I link to it in the description, hopefully that helps.
Very helpful. Thanks for the video! Had a question though...
My manual says to use 10W-30. Should I go with that or use 10W-40 like you did?

You mean the CB500F? Kawi makes the Ninja series :)
@@YouMotorcycle I was referring to the Japanese motorcycle in general

@@YouMotorcycle 🤘👍
Nice job, thank you!
Happy to help!
Make a video how to change the front light, please
Bring your bike over and we'll look at it
@@YouMotorcycle its too far, i live in germany

@@ilkishabb I don't remember. This video is from a couple years ago. Why not have a look and see?
@@YouMotorcycle In the video, you show an original filter for Honda, and in the link you attached a compatible one. Where to order an original, on Ebay, Aliexpress there are ads, but how original are they. If you can give me some advice? Thanks!
@@ilkishabb you get Honda parts from a Honda dealer
Do you have a link to where you can get the universal oil filter attachment?
Here you go: amzn.to/3M4p6ZO
Thanks for the video
The dealer wants over $200
Happy to help. Hope you got it done without problems!
That's a pretty easy oil change.
Very! Especially with the lift table. Piece of cake :)

@@YouMotorcycle thank you but nobody knows 🙃
@@milosevicgorann lol I've never even owned one so I don't either. This was a customer's bike
I guess it recommends to change oil every 1000km or what ever number of months comes first?
Every 1000? No definitely not. The manual says every 12,000 km (8,000 miles) or every year, whichever comes first.

Hi. Do you happen to know if there an online manual for the Honda CB1000R 2020?
Thanks
