I feel like it's almost a necessity to have some kind of protected storage, especially for smaller machines like motorcycles. Keeping it out of the elements and being able to do maintenance and detailing.... Oh indoor detailing is always a good time haha. I plan on keeping all my motorcycles well taken care of.
Thanks man. It's an anti-corrosion spray to prevent the battery terminals and connections from developing oxidation, but I didn't realize these types of batteries don't need that type of treatment haha
It's amazing how easily you can access things like the battery and the air filter on the old monsters. I have the same battery as well. Now let's get her inspected! 🙂
That's one of the awesome appeals to bikes like these... so simple to do simple maintenance. I've looked up how to do the valves so it might be something I attempt when the time comes again. Love simple machines.
Hey there! I sprayed on battery terminal protectant which reduces corrosion on the battery terminals... HOWEVER... I was told that it is not necessary for these types of batteries... so it was pointless for me to do that haha. It's what I normally put on my car battery terminals.
You can, it would help with gas leaking out the cap if the gas level is higher than the cap once turned vertically. Whenever maneuvering the tank, you'll always want to be careful of snagging any fuel lines or mindful of any leaks. It will leak some from the cap if the level does reach there when lifting the tank.
Thanks for checking out the video! Yeah motorcycles are much simpler to work on than the various Porsches you tackle. Now this naked motorcycle I have is an even simpler machine to work on because there's not as much stuff to strip away. Not to mention, my bike's only got 2 cylinders and is air/oil cooled so no fans or water lines going through everywhere. This bike is almost as simple as it gets haha.
Hey folks👋 I'm a Norwegian guy riding a Ducati Monster 600 I have a Question .. i have a Yuasa 12 v(16ah) battery that is leaking .. but i want a gel version.. Can I use a 12v( 20ah ) on my Ducati Monster 600 ? .. i don't.. I've already bought one battery .. but I'm kind of worried I'd Ruin the electrical system .. what do you all say ???? Please answer .. help please 😋😋🤗🤗
Don't worry, you should have resistors and fuses in place if things are too powerful. Or, if they are not powerful enough, you will have resistors clicking and stuff like a dead battery and whatnot. I believe...
Gigi Prisco it’s a custom exhaust I did myself. It’s the stock exhaust cored out and modified with an added perforated tubing and muffler packing. I then removed the heat shields and sprayed matte black. It sounds pretty amazing for an at-home job. I’ll have to make a video about it. I have the video footage just haven’t put it together yet
@@ToastToGo yes please! I was looking for some aftermarket exhaust for my s2r but i actually like the sape of the original ones, if i could keep them improving the sound that'll be amazing! Looking forward to your video 😉
Gigi Prisco ah excellent. That will motivate me to get working on it haha. I’ll have to find the link to the instructions I followed as well I could share with you. Been a a while since I’ve done it, hope I can find that forum thread 👍👍
It was battery terminal protection to prevent corrosion between terminal post and connection... HOWEVER... I didn't realize at the time that these types of batteries do not need that spray
@@meech7520 You're quite welcome! I have been so used to doing it to all my cars, didn't realize this higher quality AGM motorcycle battery didn't need it.
I love how you acted like this was just a normal video in a line of videos as if you haven't been gone a long time. You're just like, no big deal, here's a damn video lol. No hello or hey it's good to be back. Nope. Just a test like you never stopped doing them and you're already bored lol. BTW it's pronounced, U = you, ASA= ausa
Oooo I'm getting new video ideas from you.. like... one that fills in the timeline gap from my previous video until now... now that would make sense haha. I'm camera shy again, I need to get my footing! I notice that too... like when I'm training people to do certain things at work, I get very monotone and boring.. I dislike that about myself haha
@@ToastToGo I'm sure you probably don't remember but it's not the first time I've given you ideas for videos. Gave you a list years ago. I wonder if I could make money being a freelance vlogger writter =P
@@adamschreiber3570 Yup yup. I haven't ridden it as much as I should, I feel kinda bad it sits in the garage a lot of the time but it's running well still and it's more gorgeous than ever. Occasionally I hope on the bike and go for a quick ride around town from time to time.
Thank you so much for this!!! I almost paid $80 to get my new battery installed, this literally took me less than 15 min!!
Fantastic :) Now you can save labor over and over and change your battery in all your future bikes!
It’s nice to see an upload from you. Your Monster still looks great. That’s the beauty of having a garage.

@toasttogo - what are you putting on at 3:11? 5-56? Great vid man!

My favorite part of these videos is the creative tank holding. Last one I saw was a shoe.
Hahahaha... that is excellent
I can't even watch the video right now, but I'm excited that you posted one! I'll be sure to watch when I get home :) peer pressure works lol
Peer pressure definitely works haha... Dave was hounding me to make a video.
How did I miss this???? That intro is so EPIC!
It's an oldie but goodie! I was quite stoked to slab it in front of my video because it brought back that nostalgic feeling. :)
He's still alive!
DarkNinja I still exist!
You're baaaaaack!
Somewhat! I want to make more videos this year! It's a good time. 8-)
Great vid man. Glad you’re back
Great to see you here, Nissan lover boy! :D Thanks for the warm welcome
hi ! What exactly did you spray on the screws ? thanks
Hey there! I sprayed on battery terminal protectant which reduces corrosion on the battery terminals... HOWEVER... I was told that it is not necessary for these types of batteries... so it was pointless for me to do that haha. It's what I normally put on my car battery terminals.
Great Video - it helped me a lot to service my bike! Carry on !
Fantastic, I am glad it was able to give some help. :)
Do you need to drain gas from the tank before you lift the tank?
You can, it would help with gas leaking out the cap if the gas level is higher than the cap once turned vertically. Whenever maneuvering the tank, you'll always want to be careful of snagging any fuel lines or mindful of any leaks. It will leak some from the cap if the level does reach there when lifting the tank.
Nice! Never worked on a bike so this was interesting to see. More toast......MORE! :)

You don't need the spray with an AGM battery
Hah whoops... still learning

Yes yes!!! She's aliiiiiive!!!
3:05 What did you spray on the terminals and why?

@@ToastToGo Got it...thanks !!!
@@meech7520 You're quite welcome! I have been so used to doing it to all my cars, didn't realize this higher quality AGM motorcycle battery didn't need it.
@@ToastToGo Understood. Just changed the batter on my Multistrada today....your video came in handy. Thanks again!
@@meech7520 Awesome :)
Mahalo, brah.

Quite possible you could make some sidddeeee cash doing that :) I'm gonna see if I can find that list somewhereeee.
How much for the Ducati 😍lol
Haha! Why, you waaaant it? That'll be $4,200 and its all yours haha.
ToastToGo what cc’s is it?
1000... well actually... 992
ToastToGo 2005? So I guess that’s your baby now
