SUPER SIMPLE Oil Change! | BTV #05

[@frictionzone7191]

That bike is designed to do the oil change on the kick stand which is why you have and extra .5qt. And add oil to the filter ring.

[@340rps]

When you start a Victory always crack the throttle a little to avoid the chance of destroying the starter clutch if the motor kicks back.

[@chunkycharlie5759]

I miss these episodes. May not have had the most views but I liked them. Even referred back to the video to find the drain plug location on my Victory.

[@cirkad]

Can you add a playlist link to the other BTVs ?

[@jamess5094]

Wish I wouldn’t have sold my Vegas 8ball. Loved that bike.

[@pcracer2]

I'll sell you that hammer! Its sitting in my garage...

[@Drfudd]

just found a good way to watch BTV videos, I watch them at 2X speed because I already know how to do most of these, but it's good to get a professionals opinion on simple jobs like these. much better at 2x speed

[@fader2701]

Love the victory. I have a magnum that I really enjoy

[@Frank_Torre]

Awesome video to start Wednesday. Honestly not a cruiser kinda guy, but love a black bike.

[@KeystoneTexan]

Those Victories are badass bikes and easy to maintenance

[@honored_death4347]

i know this is an older video but i was wondering if you have ever had a victory hammer 8-ball where the bike can shift fine and throttle up in neutral but the moment you shift gears and try to go and throttle up it feel like you're in the wrong gear and the bike has trouble moving even struggling to get up to 10mp. i cant find anyone to work on the bike near me and i found this video hoping you could point me in a direction to at least to a part that might need fixing.

[@Wolfy887]

Cool bike. Great walk through of the parts and procedures👍🏾👍🏾

[@maxthomson2948]

These videos are great, this is the workshop goal I'm heading for, that's a dream job and a half

[@ParadiseBiker]

And that's how the pro's do it 😁... (Hey suggestion since you guys tend to work in the same space that bikes are started in, I see at the Dyno n such places they have the little exhaust tube thing connected to the outside to let the fumes out)

[@marcusgeorge1825]

Maybe the Carbon Monoxide improves their mental capabilities...

[@therog67]

CAN YOU WORK ON Vision too

[@bwarrencivic]

Really enjoying this series

[@cavscout454]

So I know this is and older video but... I have the same fender eliminator turn lights, you should mention to your customer if they add a load stabilizer the lights will blink at the regular speed

[@HJBProductionsLLC]

How do you remove a locked gas tank Fuel Cap? I lost my keys but I was able to get a replacement ignition and Fuel Cap but now the old one is stuck.

[@edsharps7395]

Those allen screws on top, then go buy a keyless one from witchdoctor or victory only.

[@JoeSmith-vf9gz]

Super simple and thorough. Thanks very much.

[@borabora5349]

I love the way you work, very professional. 👍👍👍

[@shfontenot45]

Yay intro is fixed no more choppy Brian!

[@the-brand]

I think these videos are pretty cool! And, just a smart business move in general 😎🤙 much love

[@hashtagjustadad5110]

So what happens if you don’t warm the oil before draining? Also, do you check the oil level when the bike is on its stand or do you set it up right and then check the oil level?

[@spacecoastz4026]

I always change the oil when the engine is hot, because hot oil will more fully drain. Correct procedure for this bike is for it to be upright to check oil level.

[@connorwatts8025]

Can you do a video on motorcycle storing?

[@marcusgeorge1825]

Plenty around... Google it!

[@ericx7476]

Love the tank on this bike.

[@thelyftrider2845]

If only i could back track my trip a little bit to get it worked on by you guys

[@mannycontreras4491]

My 2016 vegas has a low oil level light on but it's nice and topped off. What should I look into doing first?

[@340rps]

Are you sure it is not low fuel indicator?

[@mannycontreras4491]

@340rps It will has letters appear saying "oil low"

[@Trappasaurus]

Great video. Thanks.

[@trevorhuntsman]

you should record doing a customers fork seals

[@ZebraActual]

What bike lift is that?

[@SweDownhill]

I'm always wondering how many takes it took to film that intro... Saying "WBRG BTV" is a real tongue twister and a long acronym to remember 🤣😃

[@cniky]

Hope you see this Brian or Chase. I am about to do my first oil change by myself, and was wondering, since my MT07 2014 was on semi-synthetic oil for the past 5 years, is it a good idea to go full synthetic this time?

[@DavidSmith-jj5pr]

switch it all you want. won't hurt anything.

[@340rps]

@@DavidSmith-jj5pr A lot of bikes the clutches don't like synthetic, stick with manufacturer states for type

[@Tashin32]

For some reason I can see you having changes of clothes there for Brian so he can do like 10 of these in one day. Doing a single service on these bikes in an entire day strike me as something that would make Brian's eyebrow twitch. XD

[@adarngoodjoe4043]

I've never had a Victory bike. I don't really know whether it's a quality bike long term. But I've always like their designs from an aesthetic point of view. I feel like they should've kept the Victory name instead of hanging onto the Indian name for the sake of heritage. But what do I know. I'm sure the design aspects have bled over into the Indian line. They certainly have some sharp looking bikes and I like the overall direction they are heading. It will be curious to see if the cancel culture ruins that brand too in the name of faux racism.

[@christopherdecarlucci2985]

The title card says 2014 and the description says 2015 just to let you know. 😀

[@chaseontwowheels]

You are correct sir. If I could bake you a cookie and send it to you I would but I suck at baking.

[@FingersnifferOG]

Didn't put oil on the filter rubber gasket, good luck to the next guy!

[@JP-pp9ke]

I thought it was interesting he didn’t pre fill the filter either. Unless I missed that part

[@marcusgeorge1825]

@@JP-pp9ke no need to pre fill the oil filters, however running a thin film of fresh oil around the rubber gasket of the new filter is a must! I think this series needs to be re-named as amateur hour! No way would I let this guy touch any of my bikes!

[@youngboyham5716]

Swag 😎

[@marcusgeorge1825]

You could undo the oil filter by hand? This is no way to show how to change oil and oil filter... Both the drain plug and filter for any bike has an actual torque setting. Also the “guess work” for the amount of oil is really poor! All manuals tell you how much and what kind of oil. These are usually in three different amounts. Completely dry (brand new amount), amount of oil required if you are just draining and not replacing filter and an amount for a drain and filter replacement! It ain’t rocket science, nor does it require guess work when the information is at hand or easily accessible on the web! OMG! Is possibly the best way to sum up this video... 👎😶

[@340rps]

No torque setting for the filter. There is a torque setting for every bolt and nut on the bike. better use discretion when tightening the oil plug. The drain plugs are very prone to stripping the threads on the motor. Thought is being upside down people are going the wrong way and stripping the threads.

[@kylenieb4946]

Please move the mic so we dont hear your heartbeat the entire video, makes it super distracting and basically unwatchable

[@evansolomon169]

"Professional" mechanic not adding oil to the filter. 🤦‍♂️

[@dav8388]

It will fill the filter so quick it doesn't matter. I have been working on cars most of my life and never once filled the filter.

[@2wheelz420]

My Kawasaki Factory service manual says there is no need to add oil to a new filter before install....

[@evansolomon169]

I just checked the manual for this bike out of curiosity and it doesn't mention anything about pre-oiling the filter. Seems silly to me, but whatever. I prefer not to have a dry start.

[@kitandrei]

@@evansolomon169 But the filter is mounted sideways. Would you not spill most of it while trying to seat it and screw it in?

[@evansolomon169]

@@kitandrei I always fill an oil filter about 2/3 of the way full.
