Welcome to Dan on Demand! This channel contains Motorcycle DIY content to help you with upgrades, maintenance, repairs, how-tos, and tons of other bike-related content. Some of the motorcycles I cover are the BMW Motorrad F750GS, BMW Motorrad F850GS, BMW Motorrad S1000RR, Honda Grom, Kawasaki Ninja 300, Yamaha TW 200, Ural, Triumph Street Triple.
I make detailed DIY motorcycle videos along with useful tips and tricks. My content shows you how to upgrade your motorcycle, how to fix your motorcycle, and how to set up your motorcycle to best suit your needs. I provide simple and detailed step-by-step DIY instructions to help you.
The first bike that I had, and still have - (for a long time) only had a center stand- quite contrary to the current norm of the center stands being more of an exception. So would claim some fame on being a center stand expert of sorts :). A nice demo of how to put on the main stand. I have the exact same F750GS 40th anniversary model.. I tend to have my right hand on the grab rails, rather than the foot rest mount... an interesting take on putting the bike on the stand.. maybe I should try that
Hi! Your bike should have a button on the left handlebar with a partial circle ending with an arrow and an exclamation mark inside of it. If you press and hold it it'll disable DTC. This is handy off-road (if you know what you're doing). I would not disable ABS, especially for off-road since it can only save you. But to answer your question, no the tool doesn't let you turn it off (that I know of)
I am seeing issue when i reset, it gives me the message that service is extended but on the motorcycle it is reset back to service due. Unable to understand what is wrong
Which bike do you have? I'd try a few different things: 1) make sure that you're only changing one thing at a time. On my 2010 s1000rr sometimes the clock gets reset when I play around with menus or change different settings. 2) make sure you're using the newest version of the gs911 app. 3) check if you can make other changes, like setting the clock or changing the reset mileage interval.
Great video (and great series of videos) I checked the amazon link and it looks like that bracket doesn’t work with the adjustable windscreen models (with the lever to adjust the height) so will need to find another bracket, I’m sure installation will be similar
Hopefully you find one that works! Just so you know, this bracket didn't say it was compatible with this model year either but it was cheap enough to risk it and it worked out. Would the adjustable lever be in the way?
@nazirghumra4630 Yes, it'll slide out when you remove the rear wheel. Remember that you'll need to bleed the rear brakes after installing the new one. Good luck 👍
@sebas9248 I got a Corbin for my CBR F4i a while back and while it was much more comfortable than the stock seat, I found it very hard\stiff compared to the Sargent seats. If u get a Sargent for your f850 you may want to ask them to build up the area near the tank higher to avoid sliding into it. I had to send mine back to get redone and that was a pain...
went to open that handlebar tip with a screw driver it was solid i thought i was on the wrong track came on youtube saw your video that you mentioned its very hard and have to use some force to get it open thanks forget about these guys sending you jokes they dont know better
do yo have a video of how to realign the G310R handlebar? mine's right switch cluster slightly hitting the tank when it had full right turn. For the left, it has more clearance.
@jankovicm7 thanks for the question. Video detailing how to make an ignition controlled power source: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8yR5HHa3V3U.html The installation was on a Honda Grom, but the steps are exactly the same. On the F750GS I used the license plate light to trigger the relay. Terminal block I used: amzn.to/4e7BCqw Automotive relay: amzn.to/4aNqITY
Whats your opinion a few months in? I just ordered the front saddle for my R1250GS in the CFX material. I generally prefer a slippery seat since grippy seats tug on my pants as I move around which is uncomfortable for me. But I am noticing as I watch more reviews people seem to like the DTX material more in general, with a few people preferring CFX.
I love the seat(after sending it back for reshaping), and the wife really likes it too. I have CFX on my s1000rr and it is a bit more slippery but that fits the bike. On this one I went w DTX but honestly it's not all that different. The super grippy part is only on the side of the seat and helps when you squeeze the tank w the legs. I can still move around when needed and I'm guessing I'd be totally fine with either option.
@@danondemand Thanks for the review. What does Sargent actually do for the reshaping- do you need to specify something in particular? I am kind of sitting on the edge with the decision to purchase the seat. Generally they seem to get good reviews but on this video thread itself another viewer complains the same about the slide forward part... In Europe there is a dealer based in UK for the supply and I wonder if they could help out with addressing such problems. A heated seat definitely would be a big plus for the F750GS. I do like the comfort seat from BMW but I wonder if the Sargent could extend the ride time before I hit my limitations
@lowlandsrider I explained the problem of sliding forward and they told me to send it back for rework. They built up the narrow front section that is near the tank to be higher, and shaved off the center section. That modification made all the difference and I absolutely love the seat. I recently did a pretty long road trip and seat comfort was not an issue for me or for the wife. We both think that the F750 stock seat was pretty good relative to stock seats on other bikes, and with this mod it's awesome.
Thanks.. looking forward to your heat installation video. Appreciate you getting back with a response. Have fun with the very comfortable looking saddle and ride safe, cheers
Thank you 🙏🏻 You are a great person for the good benefits you provide. My question is, is it possible to explain in a video how to fix the bike problem? The front tire is straight, but the handlebar is not straight. There is a deviation to the left due to the BMW 750 GS bike falling. Thank you
Hi, sorry about your bike falling.... If the fall wasn't too hard your handlebars are probably just bent. They're not too hard to replace and not very expensive (aftermarket). If it was a hard crash it could also be your forks which would probably be a much more expensive repair. It might be best to take it to a mechanic or a friend who knows bikes.... Good luck.
@@danondemand Thank you for the good feelings. The fall was not severe. There was only a slight deviation to the left in the steering wheel. Is there a video explaining the method of repair? Have a happy day 🙏🏻🌹
No, dealers have their own specialized computer and SW that can also push SW updates. And yeah this thing is pretty expensive but since I do all my own service on multiple bikes it's paid for itself pretty quickly
@@danondemand Ah, makes sense. I was gonna try the $50 OBD II blue tooth reader and then use the app unless the GS911 can also adjust the fuel to air ratio? Would love to make the GS run just a tad bit richer if possible since they mostly come lean from the factory.
Weirdly enough, this is the first video I found where someone actually explains how to do a quick shift..great video man. I do have a question, when my bike is equipped with the quick shifter, is it still possible to shift normally, or do I have to use it? Keep up the good work!
Hi. I bought the bike with those crash bars and I want to remove them. My question is when you installed them did you remove any factory-fitted screws? If I remove the bars will I need to put any screws in the open sockets?
@@danondemand I want to install hepco & becker lower and upper set. I think they might use different mounting points and when I remove the wunderlich then I want to be sure everything is tight up correctly (no missing screws)
Yeah it's definitely on the pricey side. Do you have the Nexus? I know other options exist for resetting the service reminder but I'm curious if they also let you change all the other bike settings.
Why not just clean the original oil screen instead of buying a filter? That’s the recommendation from the factory. Good job on the video! Everyone except one video so far has done the same, tossed the screen and installed a filter, just wondering if it’s being missed in the owners manual, states to clean the oil filter. I bet people think it’s a typo. Anyway you did make a good video!
So the bike has two "filters". There's a screen that you clean out near the drain plug and also a filter element that can be replaced. I definitely cleaned some of them instead of replacing them if they're not too dirty. At some point it's just easier to replace it though especially when there are a bunch of little particles stuck in them
Hi Dan, there is another question I would like to ask you. Does your motorcycle with an electronic quick shifter feel like the rear wheel is getting stuck or swinging when you downshift suddenly? In addition, electronic quick arrangement can only be used at high rpm, right? Thank you.
Thanks for the question! No, it never feels like it's getting stuck, and yes it's usually smoothest during acceleration for upshifts and deceleration for downshifts.
