[@MrP0lar]

i rewatch this video all the time as a refresher before i change my oil

[@chicagosbackbone]

I remember watching this years ago when I first bought my ruckus. Best ruckus/scooter videos on youtube. Thanks again. If I'm ever out your way we need to rip around!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Awesome, thank you!

[@BrotherKyler]

Thank you Mitch, just changed my oil for the first time. It was so easy with your instructions!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

You're welcome! Glad it helps!

[@greghawkman]

Hey Mitch great video....but the manual says not to rev up the engine to warm it up.

[@Winterstick549]

​@@greghawkman Just take it out for a spin

[@GuruBoards]

Great video and great videos Mitch! Just letting everybody know out there if you have a 2019 or or newer Honda ruckus, when checking the oil level, you do Not screw the dipstick in. Simply clean the dipstick off, insert it till the threads seat, and pull it back out.

[@hikerglenn]

I was going to say that too....you’ll end up a little low overall screwing it in. All Hondas (to my knowledge) the procedure is the same, you just set the dipstick back in the fill hole on the threads, then pull out and check the level. I worked at a Honda dealership (in the service dept) for quite a few years back in Indiana.

[@nerb6833]

I do the same!

[@MoJo-eb4lt]

I just sent my dipstick as well to check the oil, that is without screwing it in. Seems though that one side of the stick is lower than the other. Angle of dipstick in motor I'm sure, but still, what to believe?

[@stealthynoodle2707]

The fact you went into detail as far as amount of torque for each bolt amazes me. While I probably wont beable to use that info it's really comforting knowing that someone is helping out like you are

[@kr4dh4x0r]

I liked the video, recently got a ruckus and looked up how to do the oil change. Captions are perfect. Thank you.

[@Life_like_honey]

Thank you for an high quality information I’ve never checked out the strainer screen for last 17 years of my 2003 ruckus and I didn't even know it existed. lol I’m trying to restore my old ruckus on these days your videos are very helpful for me. All the love and respect from korea🇰🇷 thank you mitch u rox

[@MrTomYaYa]

Keep up the good work, Mitch! Great editing on the videos by the way! You've helped me to change my oil and my coolant now!!

[@JFrenchRennier]

Best Rukus Channel on the Internet for Maintenance. Especially love using proper torque & the camera work expertly showing exact placement. Thanks Mitch, you are my Go To & my personal Father & Son retirement hobby is restoring American Muscle cars then showing & reselling, Have built a couple or 3 drag cars & bikes just for fun. BTW - my 2022 Rukus heavy mods without an engine change is a 2022 cruises at 40mph normal top speed 45/46mph stage 1. The Ruck is my daily around town errand bike.

[@SebastiaanMollema]

Great video, perfect level of detail and video quality!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Thank you Sebastiaan!

[@JD-lb3dq]

Just wanted to stop and say your videos are straight to the point and incredibly clear and concise. Keep up the awesome work man. Just did my coolant and oil watching your vids. I'll check your channel for all other stuff I need. Thanks man.

[@chopkinsize]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@robertmarsh5786]

I don't have Ruckus however I just got a Nss250 Reflex. Its been sitting for 10yrs, I'm in the process of bringing it back to life. Anyway I enjoy your videos, they are very helpful!

[@KS-ro6in]

another GREAT job. I have now seen your Ruckus coolant change and oil change as I am thinking of buying a 2019 Ruckus...(although I wish Honda would offer injection vs. existing carb) . I am hoping they hire you and give you a job ...you do it that well . Again thank you and congrats . Kevin

[@drzoom11]

Getting my first Zoomer, (as the Ruckus is called in the UK) , next week and your videos have been fantastic. Clear concise instructions, brilliant. Thanks very much 👍

[@PottersWork]

Just bought a 2009 Ruckus with 190 miles on it. Been watching some of your videos on maintenance. Thank you for making clear and concise videos!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Awesome! Enjoy your Ruckus 😀👍🏼

[@sproozit6774]

I got to the end and was like "Hey, it's Mitch!" I've watched your GoPro tutorials for years

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

[@samuelmitgang1963]

[@pcalabro11]

Thank you , Mitch!! I've now changed the oil, replaced the battery, and installed a new oil pump. You are awesome

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

[@randyherrin138]

Thank you very much, Mitch. I watched a lot of videos but you were the one that I trusted. You don't try to convince me you know what you are doing, you just show me how to do it.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

I appreciate that!

[@joshwells2841]

Thank ya Mitch helped me learn my new ruckus better than before. Just picked up my GN 10w30 and getting ready to do exactly what you just showed me minus the torque wrench.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

You’re welcome Josh! Also when you check the level with dipstick, just put it in and sit without screw in

[@SaltedSeeder]

Thanks Mitch! When checking oil do not screw in dipstick. Have a great day!

[@gasketheadz5399]

I went into a repair shop in Vancouver to inquire about them doing oil change in my 2015 Ruckas. Their shop rate is now $180 per hour! Be looking at over 200 buckeroos for this simple oil change. After watching this video I went to the walmert and bot oil and a funnel for less $10. Thanks Mitch

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

[@WillRayneMC]

Dude! You're awesome!

[@BrendanWhelan]

Love your style. I did everything with the same tools you suggested but was having issues with the torque wrench, fitting it with the hose in the way. I tightened the oil screen bolt with the wrench as tight as I could. You think this will be okay?
