good video. I'd recommend not using air to try to drain out more oil, use some fresh oil since youll have over half quart extra to flush out first. A lot of people have dirty, wet air in their air compressors. Also a micrometer at the chain tightening step makes it so alignment is perfect too. About to do the first service on my 2024 black zx6r also

very good point. my compressor is new and drained daily, but I never thought of dirty wet air on older compressors. Never thought of using a micrometer. I'll definitely start using that tool for chain adjustment now.

Also I have a 2023 zx6r tuned and I Change my oil every 1200 to 1500. Using AMSOIL in all my bikes and cars never had issues.

Nice bike and great job but can’t mix coolant it might gel up specially with that coolant you put in.Also needed to clean the chain every 400 to 600 miles.

I did my first and second oil change at 200 and 900. Ive heard a lot of people say it helps get rid of the metal shavings and beter for the engine break in. Who knows. Nice bike i have the same setup but RPW

i did my first service at 250km/1 month as my running were low.. now its at 1400km and my second service is scheduled next month .. should i skip the oil change? dealership said you can skip it and get your oil changed every year as your running is low..

That’s one way to do it.

Why is your bike running low on oil? Is it a 2 stroke or 4 stroke?

@SmokeyTheBear00 4 ай бұрын

@@ScooterNinjayou shouldn’t be “running low” unless you have a leak or you’re burning oil. Also I wouldn’t listen to that guy. One oil change a year is not nearly enough.

How about clutch lever adjustments?

@MaxamillionEd Ай бұрын

they usually come with the right amount of tension during uncrating. i would recheck it at around 10k miles

At 14:33 you put the same counter pin back on? But you also bend it when before it wasn’t bent so if you take it off again would you just need to replace it I’m sorry I’m new to bikes

@MaxamillionEd Ай бұрын

you can reuse a cotter pin once. anymore than that and it can break off when you bend it back. it loses integrity the more you bend it back and forth

Would the engine mess up if I top off the coolant with what you show in your video? because the coolant is green and you have blue. Genuine question, I want to do this as well but still new.

@MaxamillionEd 4 ай бұрын

What you want to check is propylene glycol and ethylene glycol on the bottle. Kawasaki uses a green one and Honda uses the same exact formula but it’s blue. If you were to mix ethylene with propylene let’s say half and half you’ll have weaker cooling because they each react at different temps. If you were to mix the two and just did a top off where one ratio is way more than the other type you’ll be ok.
