The centrifugal oil cleaner is under the 3 screws on the crankshaft end, this also has a gasket and separates out a lot of aluminum dust you should check this next time
Hi their I've just cleaned out my oil strainer and I must of lost something inside cause I have no clutch but I see At 2:38 that theirs a little black circle thing on the casein and on mine I don't have that maybe that's why I don't have a clutch but I did have a clutch before I took the casein off so you couldn't tell me what that black thing is called or what so I can sort my ASAP please?
Cheers for this guide Tony, I've literally gone at the casing with a rubber mallet and haven't been able to get the clutch gasket cover off at all - any ideas on how I could get it to loosen without cracking the case? Looks like it's jammed on.
Drift R1DR it just needs tapped all the way around, be CAREFUL but you can go around to the other side and underneath you will see like a lip that you can tap, but be CAREFUL
I have been driving this model bike for the last one month and I really love my bike. Now I covered 1200 km. This week a problem is bothering me and i cannot manage to solve it and i think you could help. The handle at the right (gas handle) just at the end there is a screw which is getting loose with every few km. I tried to tighten it but after few km it will untighten again could you help me to solve this problem pls.
anthony abela you would be best to take it out and have a look, they are in fact weights to help stop the vibration. you might have to get new ones or if not use some gasket sealant and screw it in.
Thanks for your help I managed to solve to problem. As you suggested i took out the screw out and checked what was happening i managed to put some thread lock which is not permanent and it seems that the problem is solved.
I've read that the strainer can get clogged like this as soon as 1000miles, so it looks like the casings are assembled a bit dirty. Also, there often seems to be a bit of that grey rubber/gasket material. 125ccbikeclub.awardspace.co.uk/oil.htm#Centrifugal-Oil-filter
Sir, i baught new honda unicorn 160, 1st august 2017, After changing my biker's engine oil, the engine caps were to stop, it took some sands and I stopped it without being clean, Is that a little sands of oil stenner filter? Or will my whole engine get worse? please answer me, i have no extra money for new one
Amazing video Tony I needed your suggestion on what should i do I have CBF 125 PGM-FI version . I recently serviced my bike from the service center Since then bike has generated a serious problem It stops after every 5-7 minutes When informed them about the problem they are charging me hefty money just to check so can you possible no what is the issue so that i can DIY.
vibhor gupta normally needs to be a new pump but i have seen them been taken apart although i would not reccomend it, is it "kanjarooing" "jumping" lack of fuel when engine is running. Could be a few things....
It's the same engine apart from the colour change right up to around 2015 when it changes to the CB125F, or CBF125R depending where you are in the world
Do not laugh. My colleague works on the suzuki service and no mechanic lubricates such gaskets. It is against the "rules". Lubricate oil filter seals but not this gasket.
+Tony Bigt i change my oil every 1000 miles. i don't know why they didn't just put a disposable oil filter on this bike, it seems a lot having to replace gaskets just to clean the filter.
Danny Muirhead as I did on the video I greased the gasket well so I HOPE I do not need to use another one but saying that I will have to get one just in case!
@@1bike2up i also have a cbf which says to clean every 2.5k miles, how many miles until you clean it? Is it dirty every time you did so? Thank you so much for replying
You don't need grease for the gasket. The only time grease is used is to hold it in place. This is what the dowel pins do as well as ensuring the cover goes back in the correct alignment. Some surfaces are gasket maker only. This isn't one of them.
Ste r be careful when you put the engine case side back on to get the clutch arm in the right place, check the clutch cable is not too tight as well, what oil you using not that it should make a difference straight away....
Hi Tony just wondering if u could help since I bought my cbf 125 when I slow down gentley then accelerate again I get a little thrust nothing major or the kangaroo hop just a bit annoying and affects smooth riding any tip if poss
It's on the clutch arm have a close look , Honda tell me I have to take my bike their for them to have a look but haven't got any way of getting it their :/
get one for Christmas - you really need one: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Grammar-Expletive-Mug-Novelty-Funny-Gift-Mug-/290972346136?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368
Ur taking off the whole clutch cover to reach the oil strainer because Honda were too stoopid/lazy fit specific little hatch like Suzuki did with their GNs. Omg how crap.
I know....I'm bad ! This is true I had never cleaned it until 30,000 kms but I changed the oil like clockwork but it just goes to show the the sh*T that is there even changing the oil like clockwork!!!!
Thank you Tony for another excellent video. I have a CBF125 as my first bike and your videos have helped a great deal.
you left out the most important part showing the cleaning process! lol
lovely video. Waiting for you to service that centrifugal oil strainer as well.
I opened it and it was OK, but I will video it next time 😉
Another good video Tony, somebody who can actually show a proper job being done cheers 🍻
thanks for that comment 😉 i do the vids hoping to help fellow bikers and to show its not that hard because i hate being ripped off, ie: garages!!
Thanks for the video, planning to do this soon. Can i just ask what did you clean the inside and strainer with ? Also what grease did you use ? Thanks

The centrifugal oil cleaner is under the 3 screws on the crankshaft end, this also has a gasket and separates out a lot of aluminum dust you should check this next time
I didn't get round to filming that bit !
If you still own that bike, could you please record a video about how to adjust the valve clearance. I would be very grateful ;)
Nice
i know this is a dumb question but what do you call the torque wrench adapter piece to unscrew the oil drain nut?
Hi their I've just cleaned out my oil strainer and I must of lost something inside cause I have no clutch but I see At 2:38 that theirs a little black circle thing on the casein and on mine I don't have that maybe that's why I don't have a clutch but I did have a clutch before I took the casein off so you couldn't tell me what that black thing is called or what so I can sort my ASAP please?
does the oil in a dirtbike flow in from under the oil screen? or does it flow in from on top and go down?
Cracking vid. Doing mine tomorrow.
😁
Do you happen to have the torque settings for those casing bolts please?
stuckintraffic?getabike! I AM OLD SCHOOL!!! no torque settings for me!!
you didn't take the circulation filter apart I'm sure that's filthy that's the thing with three Phillips head screws on it ribeye or clutches
Topgunviking Hard To Kill its was and it was clean
Thank you for this video Tony. You make it look easy! :)
And remember to use lint-free rags for cleaning or the strainer will clog up again, and very quickly.
muy buen video,, era lo que andaba buscando,, Gracias

My 4years old honda cbf stunner overheate after running 4k.m. what is reason?
SUJOY DAS have you checked the oil? What oil are you using? Air filter when did you replace?what is the ambience temperature there?
Thanks for this vidéo 👍, i'am french and i cherche this oil filter .
hi, so the first time you cleaned the oil strainer is at 30 000 km ? am i right? so after 30 000 km it's what it looks like if you never cleaned it?

You're not supposed to re-use that type of gasket. Why copper grease on the bolts?
Next time you come to remove it you will see why 😉
Why would a gasket require grease?
@@forevercomputing I will give you a few more years then see if you get it !
@@1bike2up Unlikely, my CBF is due a rebuild since 2016. Been off the road since 2017...
Yes, like in this video
are you doing the centrifugal filter, is it difficult to do.

not hard at all, 3 screws if I remember

Sir, i baught new honda unicorn 160, 1st august 2017,
After changing my biker's engine oil, the engine caps were to stop, it took some sands and I stopped it without being clean,
Is that a little sands of oil stenner filter?
Or will my whole engine get worse?
please answer me,
i have no extra money for new one
Sadhan Giri take apart and clean and flush (diesel would be the cheapest way to flush)
i am dont know how to flush , service center not flushing my engine
Open engine and wash (flush) with diesel
any video reference please, open engine mean open cluch cover?

vibhor gupta sounds like fuel pump issue...
Tony Bigt thank you for the reply do you have any suggestions what exactly should I target in fuel pump or any video for reference
vibhor gupta normally needs to be a new pump but i have seen them been taken apart although i would not reccomend it, is it "kanjarooing" "jumping" lack of fuel when engine is running. Could be a few things....
thanks Tony for your help I will get my fuel pump checked as soon as possible and update you I just hope it's not a ecu issue
its for honda cbf 125 2011 version? thank you
It's the same engine apart from the colour change right up to around 2015 when it changes to the CB125F, or CBF125R depending where you are in the world
What did you use to clean the inside and the screen? Thanks!
Brake cleaner is fine.
tony can you tell me how much oil to put in the engine please? around abouts
1 Lt , but with full strip down 1.1lt
+Tony Bigt thanks tony
total km your bike
Kick start install possible?
Check out parts for the CBF Stunner 125cc. You'd need to order some parts for the Indian version. Where this was made.
Does this also apply to the 2015 replacement, subtly renamed CB125F?
I think it is exactly the same
@@1bike2up No, there are some changes, the power output is different, but getting to the strainer would be the same process.
thanks.
😂
Fantastic video. I'm about to change out the oil in my 2003 Gilera Cougar 125. Is it work doing this and checking the oil strainer?
does the gilera have an oil strainer?
i haven't opened the casing yet but I am presuming so, as is it a unbranded honda engine.
Humm
I bought a gasket for the clutch over any way do I am going to give it a try and see what happens
+R.O.S.S.C.O let me know how its looking
Never lubricate the gasket. Just clean and degrease both surfaces and put dry well.
fatjoe205 have been lubing gaskets for over 30 years with no probelms, alias with it lubed i have been able to reuse sometimes...
You are doing bad, ask the mechanics.
fatjoe205 lol
Do not laugh. My colleague works on the suzuki service and no mechanic lubricates such gaskets. It is against the "rules". Lubricate oil filter seals but not this gasket.
Each to their own big lad.
after how many kilometers you changed it?
nafiul nagib 32,000kms
thnk u..:)
how many miles is it before the strainer needs cleaning on cbf 125?
+Danny Muirhead i think they say 7500 miles but as you see i left mine well passed that but i do change my oil like clockwork!!
+Tony Bigt i change my oil every 1000 miles. i don't know why they didn't just put a disposable oil filter on this bike, it seems a lot having to replace gaskets just to clean the filter.
Danny Muirhead as I did on the video I greased the gasket well so I HOPE I do not need to use another one but saying that I will have to get one just in case!
so you used the old gasket? you didnt replace it?
+Danny Muirhead no, the one in the video is new. I greased it well up so maybe next time it will not break / stick and might be able to use again.
What torque did you use for the clutch cover bolts?
fatjoe205 all by touch
do you clean the filter every time you change the oil?
No way !
@@1bike2up i also have a cbf which says to clean every 2.5k miles, how many miles until you clean it? Is it dirty every time you did so?

You don't need grease for the gasket. The only time grease is used is to hold it in place. This is what the dowel pins do as well as ensuring the cover goes back in the correct alignment.
