Kawasaki Ninja 300 Maintenance! (Chain / Oil / Coolant)

[@apparentlygeo9592]

Thisnis my first bike. Ive had it for 4 months now and I've been really intimidated by maintaining it. You guys (and gal) made it look so easy. I'm WAY more confident now. Thank you SO much!

[@hunterhenderson9721]

Perks of working the midnight shift, get to watch Block when I get in

[@MiguelRPD]

Love you guys. Just got the same bike and im glad you're teaching the basics here.

[@Smallbore2wheels]

And now she is more knowledgeable. Definitely plan on doing that with my two daughters.

I was a mechanic for 6 years before lockdown and have one of those noco boosters and highly recommend

[@firstname8112]

You are my new fav youtuber like ever. I have been watching your stuff for the last 4 days and I've learned so much. You are my masta!

[@dougdays7426]

PSA.......Not sure if you know but the oil bottle is designed to be poured with the spout side on top. this will help stop the glug glug effect and it pours more smoothly.

[@ponylifestyle5995]

Really good video just got my first ninja 🥷300

[@generichards6497]

Cool you guys are so helpful. I know Captain Ana was grateful for all your help. Stay safe out there.

[@SportyRider]

Really liked the sports style Blockcrew member intro! That was really 😎

[@Jayhadd21]

Love when she’s on... much love to y’all!

[@Tashin32]

When the subscribe notification came up, I legit thought for a second that the distortion was oil pouring out of the bottom of the engine XD

[@CraigSmith568]

LOL, I thought the same thing.

[@Baby-Ghoul444]

getting a 2014 kawasaki ninja 300 as my first bike, just going for my learners next month and trying to find out how to care for it

[@Firestorm637]

First mod on every bike, lithium battery. Lasts 3-5 times longer vs toxic lead acid battery, longer warranty, no trickle charge needed as only loses 1% charge/month vs 1% charge/DAY with lead acid, charges in minutes, vs hours, less weight, no explosive hydrogen gas, no corroded cables, higher CCA especially for big twins, full power starts even at 10% charge(70% charge on lead acid is essentially a dead battery)

[@SLBPerformance]

If she decides to do exhaust and tuning. I HIGHLY recommend FlashTuneECU. Literal night and day difference on that bike once it's been flashed.

[@shane8493]

That was informative, Ana rocks. I so enjoy the service, install & bike builds. Great jobs

[@Ed_Campa]

Hey block, it is interesting to use a tool to check the alignment of the chain. I've read to not trust on axel marks only. This tool looks like a stick attached to a sort of "box", and when you fix the box over the chain, you are able to see the alignment of the chain. As you appreciate to have right tools in your shop, this may be an interesting acquisition. Deuces!

[@Yargilfist]

Pretty cool! Engine coolant drain was a bit more involved than I was expecting.

[@Nrgpack]

Nice to see you working on a metric, and sure, Captain Anna's bike will spice up your channel. Thank you!!!

[@Barnshal]

8AM here, nice way to start the day!

[@patmanwainwright3423]

Hey Block those NOCO are good also if you get there GBC007 lead you can install on the bike and have it plug into the gb40 with out removing the seat eg like the trickle charge lead anyway hope this helps. Ride safe stay vigilant.

[@KMaC-wt9lr]

Gold-zilla is sounding SWEET.. 👍👌🏼🏍

[@Firestorm637]

Great video for basic maintenance

[@redbeard_raccoon]

Just remember since you're using propylene glycol instead, you're going to want to keep track of hot days as Engine Ice gives less heat transfer for a higher boiling point so your bike is actually running hotter but you won't have boil-overs as quickly.

[@millenniomatic4856]

2.3-2.5 quarts of oil is what the bike calls for...

[@markraney8131]

Don't forget the brake fluid! If you don't know how long it's been sitting thats one that needs doing.

[@dryzl3910]

Yo block I just got a KRT 300 what are the maintenance schedule for the 300s

[@Paul20661]

Just got to work 10:00 Watching this after haha ✌🏻

[@Paul20661]

HAHA LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT WAS GOTTA BE MY LAST DAY AT SUBWAY PROMOTED TO CUSTOMER Now waiting for the cinema to reopen so I can go back there

[@jasonyoung7873]

Off topic. Do you conceal carry? If so how do you do it on your bike

[@Firestorm637]

Air cooled motors are cheap to produce vs more complicated liquid cooled bike. All gas motors require alot of maintenance because of all the moving parts vs an electric vehicle. Air cooled motorcycles are limited by HEAT/air cooling vs serious horsepower numbers like liquid cooled motors. More horsepower means more heat, oil loses viscosity with increasing heat/friction. Liquid cooled motors mean more horsepower, stable heat environment, durability and long term reliability.

[@hoveringcow]

I absolutely love the tyre.Whst brand is it?

[@chrisnj7587]

I think that Ninja just wanted to pee on goldzilla when the coolent came out. LOL!!!!!!

[@Firestorm637]

[@edrosa5079]

I have a question i have a 600 motorcycle motor i took out of a car and am wondering what the 2 holes under the oil pan are for i do not know motorcycle engines so be nice please

[@coreythomson6769]

Hey I think I put to much oil in my ninga 300 and oil coming out the crank vent breather

[@michaeljames6821]

What about spark plug,air filter and brake fluid....

[@rimaspazereckas2748]

If in doubt...change the oil...oil is cheap engines are not...

[@Stape_Playshion]

Thank you!!!

[@jasonsanderson9385]

@ captainAna how do you like your bike? My wife wants to start riding with me and she wants a sport bike... No Cruiser like me.... Been looking at new Kawasaki 400, GSXr250 and R3.... Just recently found used Sazuki Bandit 600 1 owner garage kept BUT will 600cc be to much for new rider? PLEASE help, any and all opinions on what bike to get. Looking at bandit tomorrow, hoping to have a bike in garage by Sunday for mother's day gift, Thanks in advance Ride Safe

[@CaptainAna]

I personally love my bike! Some might say the 300 is too small of an engine but honestly it's all about what she feels comfortable on. My biggest recommendation is for her to test ride if at all possible :) good luck!

[@jasonsanderson9385]

@@CaptainAna thank you!

[@jasonsanderson9385]

@@CaptainAna just wanted to let you know, I just got my wife the Yamaha R3 with 3k miles. It's the bike she wanted and has 0 clue I bought it & being dropped off tomorrow

@@jasonsanderson9385 awesome!!! I hear those are great bikes. Please tell her I said congrats and ONE OF US ONE OF US! haha

Chain better on loose side vs too tight side

[@jtec99]

If the fairings really suck, could always do the poor man MT03 mod and strip all the plastics off 😁.

[@peter10245]

Pop the Garatsch open a bit Block. Love the Garatsch Stuff. Stay Vigilant. ;-b

[@brba100]

What kind of engine coolant was that

[@zerozenn]

This is my model bike and I just flushed the coolant and radiator fan. I'm still having abit of a over heating problem tho, I forgot to burp the hoses. Might there be anything else that might cause it?

[@tune2356]

Hey what coolant fluid did you use? I don’t know what fluid to use. I also have the same bike

[@zerozenn]

@@tune2356 oh shit, forgot I posted this. Everything is good now and I used PEAK blue coolant & antifreeze 50/50.

[@tune2356]

@@zerozenn lol thanks for the reply. Strange question but has your bike ever had a buzzing noise at high rpm’s?

[@zerozenn]

@@tune2356 no it hasn't, tho if ya haven't gotten a yearly look over at a shop I recommend it if ya feel something maybe be wrong.

[@vvdd903]

what coolant type is use?

[@luish8056]

4:56 wait, what? What brand?

[@marclapalme1394]

Kerosene. Cheap and good.

[@clubstyleridahd4695]

Why did she pick the 300 over the 400?

[@CaptainAna]

more availability and cheaper. 300s are a dime a dozen so I picked it up for a steal

[@DOUGHBOII777]

Got one with 8000 miles for 800

[@cyberpunk4622]

May the fourth be with you, now that fluids changed they are.

HA! Leave it to a girl rider to have clean oil!! JK JK! I Love lady riders =P
