You are right, also it improves drain as air enters to replace drained oil space. Normally bolts can be opened, but mentioned situation would seize driving for short period.
Wow thanks, this is an excellent video! It's been over 10 years but this information will be relevant for many people for many years to come! Good job, kiitos!
Hi, I have owned my XV535 for ten years now and your videos have been of great help to keep it running smoothly after all these years. Thank you for making these and please continue to do so! -Jack from USA
Thanks for your kind words. I'm glad that these videos have been helping you and other peoples. Just have been busy lately and no new ones published. I try to do something on next season ( season reaching end here soon, I'm in north ).
Don't know if you still around 2012- but my bike seems to have the oil window closed up (removed) just a black plug in its slot from where the location of your unit is; any suggestions on how to check the oil levels with out the oil window?
Mielenkiintoista. Putsarista kanava kaasuttimeen joka antaa öljytöntä bensaa lmukanavan ja venttiilin kautta sylinteriin. Puhdistaisin pois ja seuraisin tuleeko uutta. Mistäs se voisi tulla, venttiliohjurin kumin kautta, mutta luulisi savuttavan, ja kulkeutuisiko ilmanputsariin? Pitäisikö silloin olla jo venttiilivuoto että puhaltaisi kaasarille päin ?Tällaisia ajatuksia ja pohdintoja.
You are welcome. Here driving season is a bit postponed as 1.5 weeks ago weather turned very cold and this week it is snowing! Temp -4 deg C ( abt 25 deg f).... Damn.
You are welcome, I'm happy it has helped you. We have -16 degrees Celsius this morning and 2 cm of snow on the ground, so driving seoason is over here :-( De nada, fico feliz que tenha ajudado você. Temos -16 graus Celsius esta manhã e 2 cm de neve no solo, então dirigir seoason é bem aqui :-(
Colder conditions use lower viscosity eg 10- and in higher temperatures ( ambient) use 20-. Just make sure it is for motorcycles with wet clutch ( eg it is in that oil). Normally stated on the can/bottle.
Do you mean final gear, on rear. Look the filling hole until enough. See video. If you mean motor oil, its mentioned in text and see sight window for final adjustment.
Have you any Virago group in the facebook? That is often useful source to find some parts as some peoples may have extras. Yamaha dealer, e-bay, Amazon etc Does it help?
@@jarmojarvinen1585 I have a bike that not require oil filter & the air filter compartment is on left under seat. While battery on right. Easier. Hihi. But it has other limitation which is no fuel gauge. :-p
Right it does, but dont be surprised if you find one more. There is one casette type on left lower side, access needs more work and not cleaned at every oil change, pretty hidden.
Hi, see ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_22tVBjxofQ.html at 23-25 seconds. There is brown long cassette going into square hole. That cassette is filter actually.
Hieno juttu, itselläni on tuo Virago ollut jo aika pitkään, hyvin on toiminut. Virago ryhmissä välillä starttiongelmia ja kaasariongelmia. Startti kuluu ja kaasarinkumi/muoviosat hapertuu.
@@jarmojarvinen1585 Yeah, the r is great :-) By the way a friend of mine told me, that together with the filter also the bolt washer should be changed. Would you happen to know anything about that?
Great video, this helped me a lot. What is the difference between filter 2gv-14451-00 you mentioned and 2nt-14451-00? My bike is from 2001 and there is the other filter recommended.
Hi Jarmo! I really liked your Virago videos, so I shared them on my website: www.viragoclassic.com/. Its an old website, that I restarted. I really hope its ok with You and I hope many more people can see your videos in the future!
Quick question, does the bike have to be perfectly upright or can it be on the stand leaning towards the left a bit to fill the oil? I see you are still answering comments made a few months ago on a 8 year old video. You are a legend!
Hi, I would say that it does not matyer in what position the bike is during filling, but you need to get in oil enough. BUT have it on flat place and in upright position when checking the level of the oil 😊. Right?
Hi, funny thing, your comment appear to be placed 4 days ago, got notification of that. When I come to comment i see that I have replies 7 years ago .. strange. Anyway I hope you have still your bike and you have enjoyed it. Haven't done any video lately, but I will do when spring comes in :-)
