Bro I never met my dad (I know too dramatic for an oil change KZbin video) and I don't know if that would have made any difference but this type of manual/repair stuff have always made me feel so insecure and intimidated, it is like what if I F-up how am I gonna fix it, who is gonna help me? Well thanks to God KZbin exist and channels like yours so today I am doing my first oil change ever!!! I am doing it right now as I am typing... I will tell you later how it went but thanks nevertheless bro... Much appreciated from Costa Rica 👍👍👍🔥

[@moosatoor4247]

Very good video. Explaining what size Allen key it is to open up the drain bolt. I stripped so many oil drain bolts because I didn't know the Allen key size needed. This video really helped me out. It'll be awesome if you can make a video on how to change the spark plug. I have the 14mm spark plug socket but I can't seem to get it to reach all the way down. Basically no more to turn to take out the spark plug. I would also oil the back of the Air Filter.

[@Maxsmotoshop]

Sorry it took a while to reply I’m glad you found a video useful you need a special tool to remove the spark plug the tool comes with the bike if you do not have one you should be able to get one from your local dealership

Obrigado pela revisão 🇧🇷🇵🇹

[@mattwatterson8985]

Cheers for this mate. Cracking vid! Ive just bought a 2020 CRF 250RX. I’m guessing the placement of everything is pretty much identical? Also… After how many hours/miles would this be needed… I’m a newbie to off road!

[@OKC_forreels]

@maxmotoshop I pinched the o ring and had a oil leak at the bottom of the oil filter

[@eliballard]

I was just wondering what oil you prefer I use the same brand as you but I didn’t know if the 10w 30 or 40 is the best Honda recommends 30 but I didn’t know if it matters or what your take on it was?

[@CH-xu7rl]

Can you do more with the 2022 CRF 250RX Coolant Change.

[@Maxsmotoshop]

When I get an opportunity I will do so until then locate the drain bolt on your water pump it is on the right side of the motor take out the drain bolt and then remove the rad cap let all the coolant drain reinstall the drain plug refill the coolant run the bike for a few minutes let it cool down and double check your coolant

[@CH-xu7rl]

So I have a ton of questions. They told me when I bought this new to break in for 10 hours and then change fluids. What do you think. Also should I change oil filter every time I change oil.

[@swingingforgold5743]

@@CH-xu7rl I am happy to answer any questions just do me a big favor and hit that subscribe button and the thumbs up… I definitely would recommend changing the oil after a few rides on a brand new bike also do the air filter clean and oil as they don’t come with a lot of oil in the filter to begin with but I do not think you need to change the coolant right away… when it comes to the oil filter I think they’re only about nine bucks and I definitely recommend changing it every time you change the oil

[@vladgorobchuk6542]

Do you recommend greasing your bike before your first initial ride? Is it ok if you do it a bit later? I just bought this bike recently and have been struggling to find a direct guide on maintenance and how consistent I should be doing some of them. I know its a bit off topic just felt the need to ask.

[@Maxsmotoshop]

Definitely grease your bike within the first year but the sooner the better as you can see there’s little to no grease on most of these pivot bolts and pins from the factory… I usually like to do a service after every few rides depending on how hard I’ve been riding

[@CH-xu7rl]

i used that maxima grease and it is hard to clean out. do i have to use grease. also what about using K&N filter oil and cleaner is that ok

[@Maxsmotoshop]

Yes you have to use Greece or it will suck in dirt the K&N filter oil and cleaner are only meant for the K & N filter how use gasoline to clean my air filters and then hot water and lots of dish soap to clean out the gasoline

[@austinfarley2344]

Thanks dude!

[@Maxsmotoshop]

No problem!

[@landonedwrads9256]

Got a question does the engine oil lube the clutch to? Is their a transmission oil drain bolt or is it all together?

[@Maxsmotoshop]

No, only one oil

[@brandonvitiello5842]

I'm assuming to remove the plastic to then remove the air filter is also an 8mm bolt?

[@alexdoyle1159]

all the plastics are 8mm on this bike

[@motomarkoz]

How long is the change oil interval?

[@250RX_channel]

Just to confirm there’s no extra change for a transmission oil? My ‘05 250x had 2 dipsticks.

The engine and transmission oil or not separate anymore there is only one oil

[@jacoboreimer2673]

Hi, I recently bought a Honda CRF 250 RX 2022. I'm curious to know if there is a way to mount a headlight (not a light bar) If yes, could you make a video on how to install, please?

[@Maxsmotoshop]

I know it’s not what you want but there’s a dirtbike LED light kit on Amazon and that is probably the way I would go other than that search for a polisport headlight if I ever get the chance to install one I will do so

[@jacoboreimer2673]

@Max's Moto Shop thanks for the response. I'll try and see what will work for me.

[@Kilvington_racing]

What would happen if the oil filter spring wasn’t quite sitting in the hole in the filter

[@Maxsmotoshop]

Hard to say, it might just be in the spring or your oil might not get filtered properly

[@CH-xu7rl]

I did the Air Filter clean but used the belray foam oil. does it matter? Also Im getting a slight backfire every so often.

[@Maxsmotoshop]

It doesn’t really matter what kind of oil you use it’s more important to put on as much as possible… and make sure you’re putting in quality fuel do not use regular
