Thanks for this video man. Made alot easier for me. Any experience with removing oxidation from your rims? Bike sits in garage, and i havnt used it for a year, but dont eant to mess the rims up with these harsh chemicals on the market. Any idea how to remove oxidation? 0000 steel wool and polish? Maybe a little courser? Any advise is appreciated
This is a great video. You actually show the work done rather than talking about it after. Could you make another video about pulling the gas tank to replace plugs and air filter?
Thanks Glad you like the video. I try to make it as informative and show how its done. I have seen to many that go to fast or just talk about it after they have pulled parts off but dont actually show how its done. And Yes that would be my next video soon as i have to get back in there again. Or I may just do one for show. Since I have already changed the plugs on mine.
Your welcome glad my videos help out. I need to make one every time I do something. I'm a visual person I need to see it done rather than hear how it's done.

That is a great educational video. Loved the tip on the oil container you used to refill the trans case. I'm trying to get setup with all the tools I need to change oil on my '09 Stratoliner. Is that just a regular floor jack you're using? Oh yes, that's a fine looking Raider as well.
Thanks yes just a regular 3ton floor jack you may need a second pair of hands just to help set up wood blocks. and some 4/6 blocks under rear tire just to raise the bike enough and 4/4 wood blocks on the kick stand to keep it stable.
Thanks! I have a stratoliner, and the front oil transfer tube leaks (I think just an o-ring/filter under the bolt). But, the frame rail is in the way to remove the bolt. Is there an easy way to fix this leak, without pulling the motor. Or, is it not too hard to remove the mount bolts, and just jack the motor up about 1.1/2". Any advice would be great. I hate this little oil leak.
@@mikeandhisbikes3502 I took a couple pics, but don't know how to send them to you. I can't use the comments to upload a picture. I guess I could make a youtube video and send you the link. Let me know if I can just email you the pics. The leak is on the right side (when sitting on the bike) down low and forward, almost to the oil filter area. It is an oil transfer tube, and part #12 (a little o ring) if you go to Revzilla and put in 2006 yamaha stratoliner - oil pump parts diagram. I'm temped to just loosen the bolt until it hits the frame rail, pull the tube back, and use a bit of black permatex silicone (RTV) and tighten it back up, as it doesn't leak too much. Just enough to annoy me, and piss on the garage floor. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hey nice video but i noticed that you had the bike on a jack and you didnt use the weep hole to see if its upto the level it should be. I have a bike stand. Do you think if i have the bike level when changing the gear oil effect how much of the oil i get out? I know i have to put in 0.58 L of oil back in but im planning on using the 3rd hole to check the level. I wonder if i have the bike up right if it effects the fill level if using the weeping hole. Any info would be appreciated
would that be called transmission??? transfer case refers to a redirected drive to another wheel. seems that i'm missing some mechanical connection here.
Thanks for the video! I just did mine for the first time the other day after watching your video. Made it so much easier knowing what to expect
Glad it helped
Great tutorial, you made it look easy..
Thx for this video, it's the best one I've looked at. Thx again.
Awesome thank you. I will be changing my fuel pump, soon as I buy it. I'll make a video of that at a later time.
well done bud ...this video was very helpful .. and clear explanation ... thank you.
Excellent video. First job to do in the morning. Thank you for posting

Hey man, nice video. Need more for the Raider, for sure. WHAT BRAND/TYPE of oil did you use? Gracias
Motor oil yamalub full synthetic and transfer case was Kawasaki brand
Thank you for your helpful video can mention any other equivalent oil say like Motul
Thank you very much
Very cool! Thanks
I have the Stratoliner, the manual says less than 1/2 a quart , but I also filled mine at least 20 ounces before it showed near full
I have an 09 strategy. Is the fill line the small t40 under the fill. Or is the fill line the fill plug height like a harley?
Stratoliner

How often should you change the transfer case oil?
some say every other oil change me I do it every oil change 5,000 miles but thats up to you.
16,000 miles in the manual…

Send me a picture. I have a friend that has a stratoliner.
Look me up on Facebook or messenger Miguel Arturo Zamora

I only put what the manufacturer says it takes so I use that measurement on my funnel 550ml I think it is I have it marked.
And yes bike being level drains just fine sometimes if I don't have it on a jack I tip it over a little just to make it poor every drop out.
Ok thanks. Thats what i was wondering. If some would still be left in the case because its not level.
Hi, what oil do you recommend please?
I've used yamalube or amsoil for the engine and the transfer case. I've used the Kawasaki gear oil gl4/gl5
Super!! :)
Do you remember what exactly from Kawasaki the transfer case oil you used?
Kawasaki Gear Oil SAE 80W-90 api service classifications GL-5 GL-4 (HYPOID) for gear drive and differentials
@@mikeandhisbikes3502 appreciate it thank you 👍
How many miles are you getting to a tank of fuel in that bad boy?
The way I drive it around 40/gallon
if i take it easy to the tank maybe 135 to 140 but im pushing it.
It's not a hex T-40. It's a torx T-40.
Yes I stand corrected.
But I did put that on my video 10 mm hex and T40 torx at 53sec into my video
So how do you check the level for this?? Do they come filled from the factory.
To be honest not sure how to check it. I just drain it and add new gear oil to specifications and I'm done.
And yes they have to come filled from factory otherwise you would hurt it running it dry.
that bike has a two-wheeled-drive?
Sorry I'm not understanding the question. It has a transfer case that's separate from the engine and a final belt drive.
would that be called transmission??? transfer case refers to a redirected drive to another wheel. seems that i'm missing some mechanical connection here.
