How To Change The Transmission Oil on a 2018 KTM 250 XC-W TPI

[@Cross-Country-Biker]

Big up Dustin, I am going for the 10hr interval, for my slow hard enduro with clutch slipping

[@ofirlevy1428]

Those acerbis skid plates could be attached directly to the frame like the oem skid plate or you have to install the bracket that comes with it?

I've always used belray gear saver 75w in my 09' and now my 21' yz 250's.. are there any good alternatives that are as good for cheaper?? Cheers!!

Hello Sir, Is it necessary to check the gear oil level if you put the recommended amount of oil in the bike?

[@rmatvmc]

It is definitely recommended to check the oil level when doing an oil change. Here is a link to the owners manual for the 2023 GasGas EC 250 if you want to check that out and see the service schedule and maintenance procedures. azwecdnepstoragewebsiteuploads.azureedge.net/23_3215102_en_OM.pdf

THANK YOU, I HAVE DOWNLOADED THE MANUAL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS.

[@christianbryan8023]

Great video. I just wonder why KTM would come up with a bolt to check the engine oil level. Not too smart at all.

[@niculaandrei592]

No oil filter?

[@rmatvmc]

Nope!

[@donproper3632]

Hell no it's a 2-stroke who watches these videos

[@yanyudharamadhani3166]

what is the engine oil capacity and every hour must be oil change?

[@BabyRicaxO]

He said that in the video! You must be kidding!

What is the name of the funnel he’s using? How do I buy it?

[@rmatvmc]

This is the Motion Pro Pro Funnel. You can check it out here: www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/motion-pro-pro-funnel-p Thanks for tuning in!

[@cadwarrior]

why do you remove the oil check bolt if you just added the specific volume of oil?

[@ponydown418]

cadwarrior - I guess for those people who can't add the proper amount... Lol

[@cadwarrior]

Pony Down 418 , i think this bolt is for checking the oil level after a ride

[@PNWEnduro]

Also when you drain the oil you never get 100% of it so the amount you need to add will vary slightly. It's best to remove the oil cap when you drain the old oil and remove the check bolt when adding new oil. Once oil starts coming out the checkpoint you know you have added enough.

PNW Enduro agreed

[@eric89q]

Every 40 hrs seems a bit high, no?

*Great!! And First!!* 😃

[@kevin1q2w3e]

Sorry I'm new to this. I'm so confused. So why are you checking gear oil when this video is about transmission oil change. But then filling it in the engine oil whole? Is engine oil the same as transmission oil and gear oil?

[@rmatvmc]

On a 2 stroke like this, the engine gets lubricated by mixing the gas with oil. But the transmission and clutch use the same gear oil like shown in this video. Hope that clears it up a bit!

[@kevin1q2w3e]

@@rmatvmc ohhh okay awesome thanks so much!

[@Rcaceres]

i believe it’s 675ml... 800ml when you cracked the case open

[@66AGW]

True!in the manual is 800 but i think is wrong...

[@66AGW]

If is more oil than 800 ml what will happen?

[@rmatvmc]

Probably not very much depending on the bike you may notice it shifting a bit differently at first. But most bikes will have a vent that excess oil can drain from if filled too much. As long as you have enough oil to come out of the oil level check bolt, you will be fine. Hope that helps!
