MY FIRST Dirt Bike Air Filter

I better drain the oil so it doesn't have a vacuum so i did get the oil out it came out pretty came off pretty easily for the record it's a 24 millimeter so pretty big honking uh bolt mine at least appears to have a magnetic um catch on it so that if there's any metal it'll catch it mine looks fairly clean so this bike has 12 750 miles on it so i wouldn't expect too much but it does look pretty good and i'll drain the rest of this oil of course wipe it down and put the new brass copper seal on here and put it back in and fill it up with oil and then put the well first i'll put the housing on housing cover this cover and then the oil i ran my finger with some foam air filter oilaround the new seal so that's nice and sealed up i guess there's only one way to put this on did i get really lucky and get it the first try out of curiosity let's see well that doesn't work no that might work too huh i'm used.

To hondas where there's only one way to put this on i guess BMW made it radially symmetrical all right i'll tighten that up now you're now perched on top of my honda i've got my drill at the weakest setting possible don't worry I'm not gonna grind down on these bolts i'm just gonna gently tighten them up and then i'll hand tighten them later i do have my drill on the weakest setting so as not to hurt it and i'm going very gently i don't want to just crank down on these it's probably all aluminum and not so strong so i'll hand tighten these in a sec just got a couple drips left to the oil almost done believe it or not the little attachment here the t20 5 attachment fell right into the drain the oil drain.

So i had to dump that out to filter out the the socket or the attachment here but anyway i got it out got these tightened up housing filters tightened up the main bolts tightened up so now we can put it in i think it's 2.3 liters i'll double check that but 2.3 liters of oil and then we can fire it up do a test ride after that i'll put on all the skid plate and side panel and stuff just to make sure everything's running before i button it up completely i already got my oil here alright i got my oil dirt bike air filter here and i find if i hold it sideways even with the handlebars in the way i don't need to use a funnel pour it sideways not too fast remember these are dry sump engines oh just as i was saying that these are dry sump so you can't fill them up all the way right away you gotta film up a little bit run the engine and then fill them up the rest of the way in as i was saying that i forgot went too fast and filled it up so anyway i'll fire it up wipe down the oil and then do the rest of the oil after it runs for a bit all right it's a few days later and my plan
