- Removing and reinstalling the rear tire on a 2010 Yamaha Royal Star Venture.
Sorry for the trouble at the end getting the splines to line up. But you get the idea. Easy to remove rear wheel. - Komedie
Fantastic vid, Erick. Thanks for taking the time to replace the rear wheel, step by step. The torque amounts would be an absolute bonus, as well. All in all, you inspired me to want to do the work myself. Thanks again. Jesse
Insightful video that helped me change the rear tire on my 07… Thank You! 👍🏻👍🏻
This video assumes that anyone watching it and about to take the rear wheel off has a lift like yours. I have a handy lift that does not have that hole in it to allow the rear wheel to drop.
instead, it is actually much easier if you remove the four bolts holding the final drive unit on. That way, you can swing the tire out if you don’t have those rails around your saddlebags. While you have the final Drive unit off. That is the time to drain the oil from the final drive and change it, it is also the time to pull the driveshaft out and lube the splines. It is also the time to lube all of the linkage bearings and bushings for your rear shock….It may seem like a pain to do those chores, but if you don’t wanna do them yourself, you can always schedule an appointment at your local dealer. He’s only charging $125 an hour now
I won’t dispute your points. I’m not an expert in video making nor am I an expert in motorcycle repairs. My only point was to show that the tire can be removed fairly easily.
I will consider making additional points that I think of in future videos.
Great stuff, Thank you for uploading from the UK.👍👏
I find placing bike in gear stops the spline from moving. Hope that helps. Thank you for your video.
Having trouble getting that axle out. Bike is 13 yrs old and I believe this is the 1st time. Nut is off, pinch is opened but when I impact it, it goes in instead of out. Drill is on reverse.
Great video. For my future bike. Thank you very much. What is the biggest rear tire I can put on this bike.
My m109r has a 250 right now.
Спасибо👍
Hey Eric. Great video. Thanks. Quick question. Where did you get the flame pinstriping?
The silver tribal art came on 2010 model only.
The blue pin striping was hand painted on by an artist in Buffalo New York. I bought the bike with it on there.
Great video! Thanks a lot , can you please post a pic and or video of the order of the axle separator and washer ? I think on my 06 RSTD IS Wrong …
I don’t have a video of that.
What size is the Allen bit that you used to take the axle?
10mm
Great video, Helps a Lot! 🫶
Hi eric just got myself a 2006 royal star i change the engine oil the manual say 3.7 liter wit the filter only 2.7 liter come out there is a liter somewhere in engine that is not coming out do you no anything about that problem thank bro..
If the bike is level. The lowest point is the drain bolt.
I don’t measure oil. I just add till the sight glass is at half full. Because over fill cause blow by. And you end up with oil in your upper air box.
YA IDO ALL THAT BUT WHEN I REFILL ONLY 2.7 LITER GO BACK AND MY OIL IS DIRTY AGAIN DONTNO WHY THERE IS A LITER THAT DONT COME OUT STRANGE..
Cant get anything to loosen. Side bag took way too long due to nuts too tight. Had to cut the rubber washer out with a utility knife and wrecked the large metal washer so i could get a grip on the nut. Finally got the side bag off then tried a 12v 3/8 impact wrench then a 20v 375 torque and it just stripped my socket caliper bolts wont budge stuck tight as hell. Any tips? John O
Diana O'Neill omg. You are having a hell of a day. I haven’t had any issues that you are having. But sounds like you need to buy sockets for stripped bolts.
I have them. Never really use them.
Where are you located?
I’m Cleveland area.
@@ericdrake1444 we are in washington state. Got a flat while out on the road over a week ago but our mechanic is overloaded because of riding season so we are trying to get the tire off at home :-/
@@ericdrake1444 problem may be its sitting on the driveway where the towtruck left it. Just on its stand. We have a low profile rear spool stand for johns ctx 700 but dont think we can use it to lift the back tire of the royalstar off the ground
Diana O'Neill without being there. I would recommend you get to Facebook. Yamaha Royal star group. A guy named Mike E. Is the guru of the bike. Also. Others from that group that near you. Might be helpful. I’m on that group.
@@ericdrake1444 thank you, will do!
I got a bad sound this morning after my new used '99 venture turned over three times and then sounded like it siezed up. It was a sickening sound like something had already broke, sending the rod into something and stopping the turn. But why on startup, and no warning? I'm hoping someone recognizes this; I just got it without warranty and don't have the bux to fix major problems.
So I would start with the oil. Smell it. See if there is fuel in the oil. If fuel is present in the oil. The engine has hydro locked. Common reasons are the fuel shutoff valve is leaking when turned off. Fuel shutoff valve is not shutoff. Carbs have sticking floats. Etc.
Smell the oil. Start there.
@@ericdrake1444 thank you many times, I think you nailed it. It's a vaguely fuelly smell and I had just overfilled the oil res on the last ride!. And I never shut off my fuel. . . . Hydrolock. The other possible route is gas through the float needle seat o-rings. I think I'll start shutting off the fuel a quarter mile from home. . I should rebuild these carbs.
@@jeffreymills7627 I wouldn’t attempt to rebuild these carbs unless you are familiar with four carbs and syncing them. There is a Facebook group. Mike Eyykamp sells a ready to install set. Contact him before going any further. He will help you diagnose this fuel problem.
My opinion. Drain the oil now before attempting any further repairs.
@@ericdrake1444 Sounds like you're saying that merely accessing the needle valve seats harms the sync. . . I did drain it and got access to plugs. Pulling plugs as soon as I dig up an 18 mm thin wall socket. Since exchanging my carbs isn't an option for me, if I can't replace the seals without jacking up the sync, if I don't find a better option, I will probably just start shutting off the fuel a quarter mile before I get home.
On voit rien avec les sous-titres
Very incomplete and sloppy procedure - sorry but if you put something up on you tube make sure you have all the procedure worked out and the proper equipment. You need to have something under the tire when you return it to the hub, Not showing all the axel washers and parts leaves viewers scratching their heads. You need to fix this and then repost with proper updates.
Mike Alvey....totally disagree, just saved 150 on labor and a trip to the shop 30 days out,, shop told me to bring in rim and new tire and they could mount and bakence for 30, watched this video once and had my back tire off in 30 mins...no issues...I was careful to put bolts, washers, and any hardware together so they go back on same way....just will need to Google tourqe specs for reassembling........great video in my opinion!
Until you have attempted to remove a rear wheel from a royal star venture, your comment is invalid.
I think in the video he does mention showing you how to reinstall. The missing piece to the puzzle is the washed. Never showed us where if feel from or where if goes back in. Other than that I thought it was helpful, I don’t see a better one on CZcams. I still need to figure my washer. Thanks for making the video.
Where did you get the scissor jack you have supporting the rear of the bike??
Steven Wick I bought it off Amazon. Says $40.49 plus $9.99 shipping. There are others. But this one has moveable arms to adjust to different frame widths. And I use my impact driver to lift the bike.
@@ericdrake1444 Thank you, i found it like you said, on amazon. I Just changed the rear tire on my newly acquired 99 Venture. Not having or being able to find oneof those style jacks , i had to make shift a jack , i used a small two ton floor jack on the shock relay ,then place 2x8's under the frame and lower it on to them for stability. I will be purchasing one as i need to do front end work. How stable is the bike when it is on that jack? It looks like you placed the tie down strap attachment points further forward (as i did in my bike table ) as where they were originally was not a good spot. How and where do you attach the straps to the back of the bike when working on the front end? BTW your video of the removal of the wheel was GREAT!!!!! Thanks again have a GREAT DAY!!!!!
Steven Wick thanks for the reply.
For the front tire lifting and strap location. I keep the straps forward at all times. I did have to drill new holes for the u bolts. Please see video of front tire removal on my page.
The jack no matter front or rear is extremely strong and sturdy. I’ve never used the jack without the table. Or the straps.
@@ericdrake1444 ok WELL I cannot keep the straps on the handle bars as i am also removing the front forks and triple trees and replacing head bearings, fork,fork seals, fork oil and front tire. am thinking if i remove the rear saddle bags and fasten straps to saddle bag/trunk mounts right up next to the fender that should hold her upright. I will go into detail and maybe you can toss out some ideas as the guys on the Venture forum have. I am a pretty aggressive rider , i love to lean way into the turns, I have a 97 triumph Daytona T-595 (955cc sport bike) and also a 2005 Road Star (1700 cc V-Twin Yammi cruiser) i take both into the corners aggressively, i have worn the wear bars on the roadstar floor boards down to the nub TWICE from dragging them in the corners. well i was out getting used to the Royal Star and after about 100+ miles i decided it was time to drag a floor board as i went into the corner( typical 90* intersection ) and as i just touched the floorboard to the pavement it felt like the front suspension was twisting. Bike got a little out of shape but not to much, i calmly eased her back up a bit and continued my line through the turn. My first thought was a tire and since i'm changing the rear i figured might as well change the front too. Make it a matched pair . Guys on the venture web site said check steering bearings , and i also wanted to check and change fork oil im pretty sure it is from 1999 so while i've got her in the air i'm gonna hit the whole front end. Have you experienced a front end twist or wobble hard into a corner?? Again thanks for the video ,oh one question on front tire video, did you have someone hold the bike up while you put jack under front, or did you have it strapped, then snug up jack ,loosen straps jack her up and then re-tighten straps ? if not how ? Just curious because its usually just ME in the garage.
Steven Wick I always do myself. I strap it up. Then lift the jack. And loosen straps slightly to lift even higher. Till its high enough. Never removed the straps. If you want piece of mind. Remove the seat and run strap over frame to other side.
I’m aggressive on my Venture too.
