just want to say thanks for this video. even though it is older. it was exactly what i was looking for and exactly as you showed. appreciate the guide.
Thanks for your video. I got a new tire put on last year and didn't think to have the final drive oiled. I don't have much money so this helps me avoid bringing it back for service.
Thanks for the tutorial. Just changed my tires on my own for the first time, couldn't have done it without this video. One thing that was different on my 2003 vstar was there is no pocket for the rear brake drum support bolt to set into. They must have changed that on later models.thanks!
Very nice video. One thing though, the final drive assembly has more splines that are critical to check for dryness. These seem to be the ones that cause failure the most, and the final drive should be taken apart to check for grease.
Great video! Thanks for all the little details and tips. Just got this bike for my wife, and need to change the back tire. But, nice to see how you do the front too, in case I need to put new pads on later. Thanks!
For all y'all new riders , y'all will save a few bucks by just changing your own tires. And y'all keep on enjoying the wind therapy and being safe out there.
This was exactly what I need to know. It was very helpful. And better than another one that I saw on here. That dude cut out some parts. I needed to see everything done. What kinda grease didja use ?🤔
Welcome. I don’t lube the drive shaft but do put a little coating of grease on the rear wheel hub splines. As for the final drive oil. I couldn’t help you there. Best bet would be to call a Yamaha dealer and ask. Hope this helps. Ride safe.
I’ve got a 2015 650 Custom. Removed the wheels for rubber, got them back and installed them last night and now I’ve lost my speedo/odo/trip and gained an engine light, which I’m assuming are correlated because nothing else was touched by wheels and minor clutch adjustment at the hand control. Took the front wheel apart and cleaned up around that speedo housing and but still nothing. Any tips?
Thanks! Getting ready to have tires installed and I need to get my wheels ready for carry in/drop off install. Watched a few videos and yours is very detailed. What lube should I apply to the final drive? I have low mileage on a 2008 V Star 650 (2,500 miles) but the tires are old and I’ve read it’s a good idea to lubricant the final drive when I have it apart. Any particular grease?
Just bought this bike, trying to learn knowing it from top to bottom and how to work em, thanks dude.

Thank you for posting this video I was able to do it by myself step-by-step now I got to go put some new tires on. 🏍🏁🏁👍🏽
Awesome video thank you. I have an XVS1100 but looks pretty similar. My old bike was a XVS650.

Good shit dude very helpful keep on keep on!!
Does anyone know what size those 4 bolts are that connect the drive to the frame on the rear tire?
This was exactly what I need to know. It was very helpful. And better than another one that I saw on here. That dude cut out some parts. I needed to see everything done. What kinda grease didja use ?🤔
Hello. Ty for the video.
question: what lub do you use for the drive shaft ?
And when do you change the drive shaft oil ?
Thankies

Do you have a sensor ring on your front wheel?
Thank you.
Good video - very helpful - thanks.

I use regular bearing grease. Only need to coat the splines.
@Kirk M Thank you! I had purchased "Yamaha Yamalube Molybdenum Disulfide Grease - ACC-MOLDM-GS-05" that I used for this.
@@cliffcares6455 regular bearing grease is no good there and diff. should have been greased, 4 bolts to get at shaft splines
it MUST be 60% moly lube paste
any kind of grease will destroy the splines before your next oil change
thanks ❤❤
Great job, Ty
Where’s the shop at
Great video
Thanks. Ride safe.
Do you rent the motorcycles or do you just record the ones that you change for work?
Orc Lord These are customers bikes that I change the tires for.
What no torque specs ???
Ok 🌹 🇧🇭 🇧🇩
