If you buy a K and N filter they have a nut on them which makes them so easy to remove and put on, also you forgot the sump bolt! Also I’d mention the manufacturers torque settings for the bolts 🙂
Mark, that oil level will go down as the filter is empty so you may need to add a little more after it runs for a few minutes.
no synthetic oil you cheap son of a bish? 🙂 good info though. thanks
Do you have to torque wrench the oil drain screw?
+MrDzago  Triumph 675. I am 6’1″ and it fits perfectly for my height. I know this was posted 10 months but for anyone else who comes across this their ya go.Â
Dude, at 1:59 was like watching my first time.
you are stupid guy is not like this read manual careful before make mistakes.
What’s the name of the adapter you used to REMOVE the oil filter
Mark, What’s that tool you used to get the filter off, not the cap thing, but the actual wrench thing that plugs into it.
Can anyone tell me what adapter he used and what size? QUICK!!!
still waiting for the name of the adapter.
Thanks Bro.
I just spent $12 on the proper filter socket for filter removal and instal. The filter and plug DO need to be torqued. Do not remove the black piece under the filter. This video is not correct. The service manual for this bike can be found on forums. Do the job right , research. P.s. The right tools for the job
How frequent should i change my 636’s oil anyone? Im at 3k changed it at 600
hi mark just serviced my zx6r after having it for nearly a year now did it all myself as kawasaki take the piss with the prices they ask here in the ukÂ
go you auto parts place and you can by something to remove your oil filter instead of useing the crazy ass parts you have the part looks like a bell ive been doing it this way and i have no problems and the oil is easier to catch
Seems like that oil filter is in a bad spot
I see some 636 Kawasaki and they said that they are the monster edition how do you really know that there the monster edition and not just some bike that someone put a monster sticker.
First thought……why isn’t he using a 6 sided socket….second thought an extension what for….third thought stomach starting to churn over the feeling of the socket about to skip the bolt head and round it 😕 (PS!!! Craftsman makes an awesome rounded bolt remover socket kit that I have used on bolts rounded by derps using vice grips… It’s just great and not a bad price)…. Always a first timer when that mushy gushy oil flows out and you don’t expect it, i remember my first 😀
if you had a oil filter kn was easier to remove only uses 17mm key?
qual é a melhor marca e tipo de óleo para usá-lo?
Thx buddy !
I saw the oil was going to miss the tray before it even happened
1- the filter must be torqued to 12-14 ft lbs.
2- do not ever use a lint shedding paper towel to clean a filter crevice or a brake master cylinder. Use a shop towel. They are just as cheap and do not corrode or contaminate
Nice
buy the spill tray and funnel from dollar tree for $1 each and for slippery hands use latex gloves for oil change job.
