Changing the Oil and Spark plugs on a Fz8. If you been thinking about doing the oil change or spark plugs on a Yamaha FZ8, then this is the video for you!
Came across this video and, watched it...there are so many things wrong with this video. The amount of coolant you added through the lines wouldn't be enough to replace the coolant lost...it would need to be filled from the top and, refilled after running it to get the air out of the system. Torqueing a oil filter by hand? That's only recommended by a professional...Lol. Adding additives to the oil is also, not the best idea. Oils are specifically blended and, tested to work and, perform the way they should...if you want the oil to be thicker to make the transmission/bottom end run a little cooler you should have just bought and, used a little bit thicker weight oil. That being said, it was good to see some insight of what to do and, what not do...thanks for the video!
Yamaha at it's finest. I have the XJ6 (fz6r naked) and already it's so over complicated and stupid to change the spark plugs (on a normal motorcycle you are in the engine in 3 mins.. not on Yams). Totally forgot how shitty it is imma buy a Hornet 600 then. Also Yamaha's service repair are crazy expensive (100 bucks per hour in France)
Thanks for the video! Just what I needed. Want to change my spark plugs to.

Hey dude, the amount of coolant you lost out of the coolant pipe, did you pour the same amount of engine ice back into the radiator?
Been awhile since the video but i believe i filled that lime back up and then topped off the rad.
