2021 YZ250F Oil Change Tutorial

[@timdrazba9489]

Very thorough video and since I am a new dirt bike rider this was incredibly helpful! Thank you for explaining everything and not assuming we already know the basics.

[@DanMX2112]

Dude bike is sick, glad to see someone kicking content on it. Really makes me want one, we will have to see what the future brings. Keep up the content, your killing it!

[@codyscrazycooking2676]

Not me here two years ago wondering if you ever got that bike ! ? Hopefully so 😊

[@tylerthornton6483]

bought my 2021 yz250f today! but it’s suppose to arrive at the dealership sometime this month the wait is gonna feel like forever but this bike will be a huge upgrade I’ve had a 2017 crf150f for 4 years now and this will be the first bike I bought myself super hyped

[@hyslopboys9600]

Great video. FYI the bolt you are told to remove in the manual, is just below the bolt you loosened. Doesn’t really matter either way, but the other bolt is easier to get at and doesn’t put your hand near the header when bikes running.

[@Richiehervig]

It’s still insane that you got a 2021 bike man!

Thanks dude, i had some questions and you def answered them in this video and were accurate to the manual which i did not have at the time. Great content

Fantastic!! We’d love to see you check valve clearances too 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@HeliAdventureSeeker]

good morning I found the video very useful for the service of my bike. at minute 9.32 what do you use? as a cleaner

[@GamersUnion101]

Used to go for month before changing oil on my 15 kx450f

[@SWATTracing]

I just did my first service on my '21 YZ250F, it's definitely not as easy to service as my KTMs. There is no space to get a torque wrench in to check your sump bolt. I know you can do it by 'feel' but I prefer to do it with a calibrated wrench

[@peytonshirley5154]

How did you do it how and gods nsme am i supposed to tourqe this damn drain bolt im so frustrated

[@SWATTracing]

@@peytonshirley5154 I bought another 12mm socket, then cut it with a grinder until I could get the torque wrench and socket in and out. Works well 🤙🏻

[@johnprotopopov8107]

That isn’t the oil pressure check bolt I have the same bike and it’s actually a bolt under that one if you look in the manual. And what brand is your number plate graphics is it black numbers with a clear background or blue background?

[@diemar11]

Great video, thank you for sharing. Just for curiosity, what happens is the bikes stays on for long time how you mentioned on the video and spits the coolant? That would breaks the bike?

[@TacDonut556]

Love the videos bud I have a 2020 yz250f I want wondering if you could do an hour meter install video?

[@TacDonut556]

@Rider_9 your right it does.. made this comment before i knew that.

[@BikeLifeRJ_YT]

Drained the oil without getting oil on hands 💪🏻

[@itsnaj780]

Loved this video im a new rider plan on getting my first bike soon but I wanted to at least be able to keep up with the basic maintenance myself

[@clippin2695]

Question, where did you get your exhaust cover? I have been looking for one and haven't seen one anywhere...

[@treyhornbrook8931]

I have a 2021 too they have a safety feature where they will shut off after seven minutes of idling or 5

[@clintcollins1053]

Hey, i saw the bike carrier you attached to your hitch, that's totally what I need for back of rv so I can stop having my brother take my bike. Can you tell me what your using. Thank you.

[@slime5430]

That's for the oil pressure demonstration. Couldn't find a manual and just finished a rebuild

[@samuelpano219]

Just got this exact same bike, awesome video

[@Ericiscrazy]

Hey man I have a 21YZ 250 F and I’m literally changing the oil as we speak and I’m wondering how much oil I put in there. I just want to specify and I have the same exact canister as you.

[@tekbuck9079]

He said 23.5fl oz, or 0.75 litres

[@SWATTracing]

The oil pressure bolt you talk about isn't the one referenced in the manual.

[@akmoto_]

Are you sure? It’s the only one

[@SWATTracing]

@@akmoto_ yeah, check out page 3-11. Picture at top left of the page. The bolt is lower down the engine, you access it from below the exhaust. Bolt faces LHS instead of Forwards if you get my drift.

[@SWATTracing]

@@akmoto_ do see what I mean? Maybe I'm going mental😆

[@tylerwildman243]

i got this bike and there is like 5 different oil weights why did you go with 10 50 rather than 10 40 or 20 50

[@bryancorelli9344]

you should do a YZ125 vs YZ250f video.

[@tynelson5502]

You think it sitting after the last time it would’ve all been settled pretty well

[@HONDAracing22hca]

Why do some yamahas have a 12mm and some have a 14mm oil drain bolt? I cannot find a crush washer that fits mine and it’s leaking

[@akmoto_]

Buy a crush washer assortment, comes with many sizes. Then you can figure out whatever your size is

[@HONDAracing22hca]

@@akmoto_ bought an assortment and none fit perfectly. So it’s still leaking. I’m wondering if the owner before me didn’t re-tap it and put a BS bolt in.

[@akmoto_]

If it was re-tapped and the threads aren’t perfectly straight in it could leak

[@516chris]

I’m not saying you’re wrong I’m just asking because I’m confuse myself you say in the video you can’t put the oil filter on backwards but I know a lot of people that run it the opposite way I was here to figure out which way is the right way to do it but I looked at a lot of other videos and they’re also doing it the other way is there really a wrong and right way to do it

[@akmoto_]

You physically can’t put the oil filter in backwards on this bike. It may not show on video but there’s a post in the side case and a hole in the filter. There’s only one way to install it

[@mephistoc9286]

Hello What is the best oil recomandation for this bike please? 10w40 10w50 300v? Pick up mine next w.e.

[@studay1007]

Very informative! Thank you

[@gango5040]

does the 2022 yz 250f take 25.3 oz's of oil, I would assume but wanna confirm

[@bradymoto2352]

First love the vids

[@BikeLifeRJ_YT]

Bike and video is so good 💪🏻

[@jamesc5066]

What oil filter do I use?

[@tylerhowlett2521]

What can you use instead of contact cleaner for the screen filter

[@yamumsasscrack3723]

Air compressor blower gun

[@jorgesoto8680]

Next time just turn screw a couple turns out and check pressure that way. Never take out bolt like that

[@tynelson5502]

How close is this to the 2020

[@Rivera_alex]

What size oil filter did you use? I’m new to the YZ world. I read the manual and couldn’t find anything.

[@akmoto_]

There’s no “size” to get. Just go to a website like RMATVMC or Motosport and input your bike and find an oil filter that fits your bike

[@mrrage1217]

Is it the same as a 2019 sorry I'm new to this and cant wait to get mine

[@hughroperbeatyou8910]

Yes the bikes are pretty much identical from 2019-2021

[@youngman7655]

Hey man I only ride mx should I use semi synthetic or full 10w50?

[@akmoto_]

It’s really up to you, hard to go wrong either way. I personally use semi synthetic because I change the oil so often, I couldn’t justify the extra price for full synthetic

[@youngman7655]

@@akmoto_ ok thank you I change my oil every 4 hours so I’ll go with semi.
