00:36 "I will put a high-performance plug"... GREAT but I would like to know what BRAND & MODEL did you put & are you happy with the change ? Did you use an Iridium spark plug ??? Thanks again for your KZbin; I can tell from it that you're a perfectionist... I would love to have a mechanic like you.
@dragonmodgarage27732 жыл бұрын
In all honesty i dont know the brand on my mind now i have used the same brand on meny bikes and it worked perfectly every time.I buy them localy for years now but i never gave 2 cents about full spec of the spark plug. You are right i shuld look into that. Thank you for the genuine comment much appreciated mate🤜

Have you tried riding it with the top of the inner tube aligned with the top bracket? The service manual recommends aligning the top of the inner tube with the table. But they all come out with the top a little higher.

@@dragonmodgarage2773 I'm referring to the inner tubes of the front suspension. The manual says that the top of the tube should be aligned with the table, but none of them come like that. They all come about 3 millimetres or more above the table. Notice that on yours the inner tube cover is well above the table.

Two years later... I'm still riding my 2010 660 MT03 & I'd like to know if your fuel tank was empty when you unplug all the fittings under it & remove it from the bike ? Thanks for your answer 😀😀😀 PS: So far, I changed the battery once but without removing the tank, just lifting it as you did at the beginning with a wooden bar to keep it lifted.

hello friend! your bike is too beautiful, congratulations! I speak here from Brazil, I would like to know if you can easily get parts for MT 03 2008 where you live? Here in Brazil this bike only sold in 2008, now it's hard to find some spare parts. I have an all original one and I was wanting to change the top frame of the panel but I can't find it anywhere.

@mazzinga47163 жыл бұрын
When you changed the oil and replaced the filter shouldn't you bleed the filter housing from the top bolt of the filter cover, when you started the engine? I believe it is the same with the XT engine, your manual should say so. Correct me if I am wrong. Top video btw,

Havent read anything about that in manual and the top bolt is case bolt so i dont think it is ment to be done that way.I did blead it b4 from the botom bolt but i never felt that was air coming out.Maybe the oil system is different on mt.IDK😅

Ye i wraped it with techwrap carbon and red.Now red is thiner so it is easyer to work with where carbon is much thicker and difficult to work with.If you havent wrap b4 mate id say take single color for the first time and you will see how it goes. Also you will need 50x120 to wrap the whole bike👊(with no mestakes ofc) Tank needs to be wraped in 4 sections as well if you check out my detailing video you will see where the lines are.
