4.33qt in the manual... also suggests 10w-40

[@badass1g]

Not in my 2020 it doesn’t say that. It suggests 4.1 qt and the same oil I used in this video.

[@dollarznc]

@@badass1g My 2017 manual does. Guess it's not 2015-2020 video then

[@badass1g]

@@dollarznc guess not thanks for letting me know

[@Yama_GG]

@@badass1g Lol I had to check, cause I was worried after buying an oil change kit. It says both 10W-40 and 15W-50 will work, solid video, I'm gonna put a label or engrave my mileage in my oil filter as you did for your oil change, good idea!

[@svgookool]

I use 15w50 on my 2019. The engine runs hot guys

[@clintbrown7275]

I just got a 2021 R1 and was debating on doing the first service myself. I did my R3 service’s myself but the R1 is a lot more expensive bike so I wasn’t for sure if I wanted too. So thanks for the video I’ll definitely do the first service.

[@badass1g]

For sure buddy it’s simple and saves a lot of money plus the hassle of having to take it in. I’d rather use the money for mods 🤟. Enjoy that new bike!

[@airgunbubba2505]

Great service video!!! As far as the tail, paint that shit blue! Great bike! Clean!

[@FlaGatorL]

He said check your clutch fluid 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@theinevitableend9412]

Lol rear brake fluid

[@imrelentless9577]

Just got a 2024 r1. Question what pictures do i send in or whatever because i got that 5 year extended warranty & lady said on the phone just write down what u did how many hours it took and follow what the owner manual says. She said a paper in the mail will be like a log book and log what u did to show proff. I only say this bc my friend ducati v4 after 7 months is not doing well with backfire and ect. So i wanna be on the safe side by going 2 the dealer ship but they say 350$ for the first service.so i find your video that u said i can take pics and what not as proof and i dont wanna spend all that money in the Stealership lol. So where do i take pictures or log what i do so, God forbid engine blows up i show them what i used how many hours it took and what not? Thanks 4 the video btw!

Can you share the link here fom Yamaha advantage…?

[@duhgivertakes]

Bro did you just say clutch fluid? For the love if god sir… do you see the Metal braided cable coming from your left hand lever… your clutch… see how it doesn’t have a reservoir… what you pointed at is the rear brake fluid reservoir.

[@badass1g]

You’re right. Thanks for the correction

[@GQ18]

Allen key size?? I’ve tried 30 different ones and still can’t break that drain plug

[@keithorlando6652]

Love the videos man! Whats the name of the site you did the warranty with? I searched what you stated in the video and couldn't find anything.

enjoyed watching your video very good thank you for sharing wishing you a lot of health and success I always support you.

[@red117john]

Wich is better for R1? Liqui Moly, Motul or Yamalube? Greetings from MX ❤️👍🏻

[@badass1g]

I’ve always ran the factory weight yamalube. I don’t know about the others.

[@kram_2783]

Just got that "clutch fluid" that's alright my 1299s has clutch fluid haha.

[@hezzryhmoe1509]

After 600miles break in oil change and then when is the next one?

[@badass1g]

Second one is 3000 miles later.

[@54metalero]

Nice video dude. I have the same bike. How many liters of oil use the bike? Cheers from México 🏍💪

[@dollarznc]

4.10L Full Synthetic SAE 10w-40

[@calimade8136]

I had mine done at the dealer because there's more required than an oil change on the service. Like the sync as well. Have you had any issues with running no cat? I have an Akrapovic slip-on and link pipe.. but I'm not sure how much damage I'm doing without ECU flash.

[@badass1g]

I’m at 7,000 miles with stock computer and no cat. 🤟

[@badass1g]

Just installed my third set of tires. I ride her hard!

[@IAMTHE1_]

Team yamaha 🔥🔥 nice video

[@gator9810]

Do I really need to order a new seal ?

[@badass1g]

I skipped it sometimes. Never had a problem with leaks after 22k miles. I’m assuming you’re talking about the crush washer on the drain plug?

[@intothesun3537]

Dude I had a 2004 R6 purchased brand new back then. My first and only bike. Had it 9 months and it got stolen from my apartment and and totaled out... that sucked

[@badass1g]

Time to get another one brother! Hope you’re doing well...

[@andrewfrost2568]

I had my 2015 zx10r stolen a few years back. Had switched to liability because I was selling the bike and it was stolen. Guy wrecked it and killed himself.

[@notonlymotovlogs7880]

What stands do you use in the rear? None of my fit

[@sorenaarbabi2264]

Was very helpful. Thx

[@lucaric6935]

it says 1month or 600miles. do i have to change it in first month?

[@badass1g]

I’d say whatever comes first

[@gsxrveli]

any tips for keeping scratches off the paint?

[@badass1g]

When are you Getting them? When you wash?

[@gsxrveli]

@@badass1g no just noticing them on tank i dont know exactly what from, im very careful not to put metal near it like keys, idk if my gloves are the issue as well, just very light scratches being noticed and its a brand new bike but it was a floor model so probably the problem, only had it for a few days guess just have to deal with it

[@badass1g]

@@gsxrveli yea the paint scratches very easy. It’s only a 1 stage paint sadly. The wheels scratch SO easy. When I wash the bike I use the power washer to get everything off, then I use a shammy to dry it. If you use anything else you’ll get swirl marks. Try not to hand wash it with anything it can easily scratch as you see.

[@gsxrveli]

@@badass1g Thanks for your response and advice will make sure to do that when I wash for now on

[@Excelsus95]

i know im 1 year late, but something ive noticed was scratching my 636 tank were the zippers on the sleeves of my jacket lol

[@adigotti]

Keep up the good work go look at my bikes

[@badass1g]

I watched a few of your vids! Nice bikes bro ride safe!

[@nickwarren5800]

Please always change the damn filter every oil change. Filters are cheap, not worth it to not change it.

[@badass1g]

I do now
