2024 ZX6R First Oil Change |HOW TO|

[@TriumphLover]

Get some shop towels/paper towels ready when you remove the filter. It should help a great deal. Washing the bike anyway is always good to do.

[@lukegader5211]

I agree it made me cringe when I saw the oil just dripping down the rest of the bike and he didn’t do anything to stop it

[@timoteileahu]

@@TriumphLover yeah ill do that next time instead of letting it run out

[@timoteileahu]

@@lukegader5211 lol mb its ok i washed it off

[@Jason-ip6wq]

Just put aluminum foil on the headers

[@timoteileahu]

@@Jason-ip6wq why? No oil got on the headers

[@Rhea-eo3bz]

Love your fit 😍

[@TheManHimselfCoreyCross]

You actually don’t need to remove the fairings for oil changes btw. 😊

[@timoteileahu]

It makes it easier and i wanted a good view of the exhaust for the vid, gotta show yall how good it looks lol

[@AZMZDA]

Awesome tutorial! Have the same bike and currently doing the first oil change this morning 🤙🏻 How is the clutch engagement with the Mobil1? Was looking to use that same oil but heard a lot of mixed reviews on Full Synthetic and clutch engagement compared to Conventional/Semi Synthetic oil

[@timoteileahu]

@@AZMZDA i didnt even ride the bike yet but ill ride tmr and let you know

[@timoteileahu]

Clutch engagement is good i think it feels better now, the bike runs smoother

[@mep9532]

Use a plastic cup before you pull the oil filter . Cover the oil filter in the cup then twist it take off .

[@oariv]

cool simple but yet wise

[@HVACOG]

I got the same exhaust

[@nikhiltiwari1224]

Does changing exhaust before first oil change affects the engine!!!??

[@timoteileahu]

@@nikhiltiwari1224 nah its fine

[@HotSizzleTV_]

Can you do a video changing the oil without taking off the fairings? Also is it 3quarts of oil ?

[@timoteileahu]

@@HotSizzleTV_ sure imma change it again soon

[@HotSizzleTV_]

@@timoteileahuis it 3 quarts of oil for the change ?

[@localredditard6391]

Could you post a video of the graves exhaust with the baffle in vs without it? I am trying to figure out what exhaust I wanna get and there aren’t many videos of it

[@timoteileahu]

@@localredditard6391 yeah ill do it in the next video i post this sunday, and ill make a short

[@AZMZDA]

Question for you man. Do you notice on the left side of your bike near the engine, what sounds to be almost like a rattle/ticking/chain sound when it idles & gets more progressive as you ride? I have the same year, make, and model and happened to notice it. Brining it into the dealership next week to get looked at but wanted to see if this is “normal & common”

[@xyzkev6647]

The notorious Kawi Tick. Normal sound, look on forums online and they say the same thing.

[@TheManHimselfCoreyCross]

Dang I thought you had more miles on it than that! I have 5000km as of today! That’s like almost 3k miles or something.. but yeah, right on! Keep up the videos! I also use a k&n 303

[@timoteileahu]

Kn is wayyyy better but yeah i havent been riding as much i was in europe

[@Jswizzelsticks23]

I chaning mine at 1200 first oil change brother no problems at all

[@oariv]

I am humbly asking whether the 17mm drain plug uses a crush washer that is to be replaced periodically? I also would like to know if the service manual specifies a torque value and if so what is it please? Bless you in Jesus' name.

[@SagarLama-o4k]

Nice to see 😮bro

[@eduardovela5297]

make a funnel out of foil paper for the filter

[@losothedon]

What type of quad lock U have on your bike? Does it work properly?

[@timoteileahu]

Just a normal one, but it comes loose lowkey, need to tighten it better

[@losothedon]

@@timoteileahu that’s y I asked pretty much hear they come loose u have to keep tightening them up on 2024 zx6

[@timoteileahu]

@@losothedon yeah i mean my friend has the ram mount on his bike and its looser so im ok for now idk what else to get and i already have the phone set up for it

[@myst2893]

@@timoteileahucan you tell me what model of kn oil filter was it? Was it 303?

[@chappi9131]

A piece of cardboard underneath the plastic guard would act like a water slide or a gutter

[@codenameFourtySeven]

I kept a rag underneath and degreased it after the fact or else you will keep smelling that burning oil

[@timoteileahu]

Yeah nah i made sure to wash it good after that, no mell whatsoever

[@codenameFourtySeven]

@@timoteileahu Good on ya mate

[@scout_gonzo]

I don’t think that 900 miles is awful but I would’ve done it sooner. At the end of the day, it all depends on how hard you rode it 🤷🏽‍♂️ If you babied it, don’t see the issue. If you rode it hard, probably would’ve stuck to the 600 mile mark 🤘🏽

[@timoteileahu]

@@scout_gonzo yeah i was gonna do 600 but kept pushing it off

[@elithegreat6463]

Usually, you can train a Chimp to change oil, and of course some common sense and a bit of thinking. If you can see it's obviously going to leak as you remove the filter, then why would your common sense not figure out to put some aluminum foil, and or shop towels to soak up, and or divert the oil away from the engine exterior..C'mon Dude
