Ive changed the oil in probably 100 motorcycles, dont even know why i felt i needed to watch this video, but the in depth tutorial was really well done. Appreciate your effort, and it earned my sub. Lol
Doing my oil today thank you for the video I'm at my 620 mark went for a long ride yesterday to get it up there haven't been riding much waiting for my buddy to get his bike done lol
Really good explanation. Thanks
The oil level is simply supposed to be in between the upper and lower line, not filled to the top of the line
It supposed to be at the top line my man, if it’s below it’s simply showing you, you are low on oil….but do what you want I keep mine at what’s called the fill line. 👌
Could you possibly link me that K&N filter cant find it online
Just ordered my stuff for oil service on my first bike for my first time😅hopefully all goes well😂
Thanks for the video man, save me lots of money!! But I still need to know what else need to be done for my 400 abs on the first service 600 miles beside oil change.
I believe its just a chain clean, lunricate, wax if you want too and then tighten your chain back into specs as needed.
I missed the part where you put the oil filter back in. I'm assuming before you added the new oil? How tight do you tighten the filter?
I'm about to get mine done tom do you think synthetic would be better or mineral? can't find it in the manuel
Synthetic is better the mineral!
Nice vid I was told 500 miles was the mark but even then they want to charge me 200 $ for a oil change
How many liters of oil did the engine take?
What size are those driven spools im trying to buy some but it gives me 6mm 8mm and 10mm
I have a 22 ninja 400 thanks in advance
My 2021 is 8mm.. should be the same
Idk if you can do it with a n400 but you can take a turkey baster and suck out a little oil.
You could do that if you have one
What pants are those?
Can I use the same oil and filter on my 2023 400z ?
Should be able to it’s the same motor!
what's the theory of prefilling the filter? same as cars? I stopped prefilling my filters this year because of some interesting points mechanics have made about imperfections being in the new oil, and you're essentially bypassing the filter by prefilling it. i'd imagine the same is the case on bikes, but i'm a bit ignorant of bikes still ( in pretty mechanically inclined though on cars and trucks, having done timing and engine rehauls in my dirt driveway under a tree ). great video for sure though!
It’s really up to you some guys do it some don’t, you’ll just have to add more oil after you run the bike is all
@@HardcityRaindrops I gotcha. hope you get better luck with the insurance stuff bro, and good recovery!
Salute!
Fellow 2021 400 rider.
I was looking and saw people talking about there are things the dealer checks that may have been or become loose etc. as a result of the break-in.
I am also at my 600 mile mark and am curious if you did anything outside of the oil change?
Just doing the clutch springs but you don’t reallly need to
I’m assuming you hand tightened the oil filter.
That’s what said to do in the video
@@HardcityRaindrops my bad must of missed it.
Missed it as well
What k&n filter did you get?
not sure what he used but a k&n hf(303) works for me
Hey I just recently purchased a motorcycle. Do you recommend doing the first oil change by the month or mileage. ? It’s really stressing me out lol. Thanks In advance.
First oil change is at 600 miles for most new bikes. After that, I change mine every spring at the beginning of the riding season. Once a year is fine unless you put on a whole bunch of miles.
Read the owners manual to your bike. If you don't have a hard copy you should be able to find it online. That will tell you per the manufacturers standards. If you ride a ton you may need to change oil a couple times a year
Was the oil black? Honda's oil stay clear.
Can I use fully synthetic?
Yep
@@HardcityRaindrops Did you have any clutch slip issues?
Ive been thinking about getting this as my first bike and I was wondering if I should I just need more opinions
@@dr.rupture8467 I would get a race rail instantly...
First of all the you would have to be really a terrible rider to drop this bike, it weighs nothing and is very low unless your like 5’3 even then you can still one foot it easy. So I would not get a naked bike on that premise, naked bikes are not as aerodynamic either and do not have a windscreen and then will get annoying unless all your doing is riding casually to work or once a week or so, so if you want more of a street bike I’d stay with the ninja 400. It’s a perfect starter bike. That you can seriously learn how to be a great rider on. All depends on your goals as a rider. If your just a weekend warrior and riding to work go z400, if you want to get serious into this street bike life and learn how to ride hard and fast and a lot go for the Ninja and nothing else.
The z and the ninja have the same engine but different power bands and gears.. ninja can handle highway speeds better.. plus the wind screen snd fairing just look cooler🤣
It gets really hot in stop and go traffic, that’s pretty much the big hate about it, and maybe that the handlebars are all one piece so if you crash it’s gonna mess up the whole front end alignment.
This is my second bike. My first was a Ninja 300 but I was hit on it and returned to the 400. From my experience, they are very forgiving and a great bike to learn on. Extremely fun on non-highway roads but still manageable on the highway. I'm sensitive as hell but it's treated me well even when windy (learn to counter lean and drag with one leg). I can keep up with higher CC bikes on rides (within my safety level).
I'd only ask what other bikes are you looking at outside of the 400...
At 8:02 something falls out of the drain hole ?
😮😮
Definitely saw it
just a heads up.....the word autozone should never be spoken by somone who wants to be taken seriously....unless its to buy soap or airfreshner.
They have the same k&n filter that anyone else would have, so just heads up a real mechanic will go to whoever has the part! Js
@@HardcityRaindrops yo are correct...but a real mechanic will lie and say he got it at any other parts store lol.
@@ericvig163 why??????????????
Dumbest thing I’ve ever heard
Spoken like a true moron. This parts house that sells the same exact thing as the one 2 blocks down the road is worse because of the name. Smh. All of them are the same, same parts, same fluids, everything. Clown ass statement.
