Lol me being a tech myself for different brand , my dealer for cf moto told me they had to do the valve adjustment for warranty and I said bs , but I played along took it , little did they know I covered the bolts with heat tape , when they were done I inspected , and my tape was still there , needles to say I got a free service and valve adjustment out of it when I was done with the service manager lol
They said the same, that my warranty would be voided if the valve adjustment wasn't documented, and I wasn't paying almost $800 for the valve adjustment/check they wants over $1k for the fluids and the valve check. Eff that. Warranty voided and traded the machine.
I've checked valves 2 times since 2021 once on 20 hours 320km and again at 1350km been on the money both times. We have 5 year warranty here in Canada so probably void said warranty since I did it myself but did video doing it gust incase. Dealer really tried ripping me off when buying it almost walked away but sold both my other wheelers that morning to help pay for new bike and needed it for trip the next day. Been a good machine only problems I've had have been Reverse lights have never worked And winch solenoid just failed not long ago.
@@bigjay6743Did it void your warranty? I was told you could do it yourself as long as it was documented. I'm also in Canada. Is the valve adjustment on a uforce XL easy to do with the engine in the machine? This video is great but the engine is out of the machine. I am at 20 hrs now and this is supposed to be done.
My dealer said don't bother with it till 2000 miles and said doing my own service wont void the warranty. I have always done that stuff myself. Great job on the video's you have turned into a professional.
My 800xc had been adjusted twice both times they said a couple valves where tight...first time at 300 km second at 2500 km . Being told to baby it at break in with amsoil in it will produce a slow break in period I believe.
Perfect timing, was going to do mine at 500+ miles..yeah i really dont want to take 75% of the plastics off so i think ill wait a bit and just do the diff fluids.
Great Video . I know what you mean , I had to adjust my 2021 at 200 miles , slightly out of spec. My Daughters 2022 we just going to change the fluids it sounds & runs Great so it don’t need all that. Keep up the good videos
I checked my own at 200 miles. They were set perfect. No need to adjust. I’ve got slightly over 1500 miles now and it runs perfect. If I notice it run differently or hear some clattering I’ll definitely go in and check everything out and adjust if necessary.
GREAT VID! Even an average non- shade tree mechanic like myself can do this! ( Just have to get through the plastic jungle and breaking tabs thing ). High quality presentation Steve! Thank you!🙌
No promo codes right now. This is our busiest time of year we can’t keep up as it is. If we put promo codes out we will be so far behind 😂. That and we already have the absolute best prices.
Thanks for this one. I just bought mine new, but will never go back to my local dealer. This was the one break in item, that I wasn't sure about doing myself.
love the videos, keep up the good work. Now you need to start hooking guys up with some tunner info cause those dudes down in Mississippi selling tunes are a Joke.
Hi friend I want to ask that mine 1000 Zforce I see one slender head (front side) exhaust pipe it’s glow red but the other slender exhaust it’s fine no red so do I need valve adjustment or there something other reason I really no idea could you help me I appreciate you thanks
On the measurements…. Did you mean exhaust between .006mm and .011 and .009mm? All I can find is .006-.009 and nothing for .09 or .06mm. Thanks for the video. It helps a lot!
Red. I just took my cover off. Maybe a silly ? But. The machine have to b in park? I have it in neutral. So the line is on the top an I can't even get a gauge to slide in there. Friggin awful. Glad I checked it
I believe there is something like 10 or 12 Allen heads that are keeping the rack on the mounts, then it's a pain in the ass to get the 100k clips out and keep track of them all.
So which video should I go by? You have another video showing to turn the engine until one side is completely compressed and the other side completely relaxed. If I line the mark up with the head, I can’t get a feeler under any of them.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I appreciate your knowledge especially when I don’t want to take my machine back to the dealer that’s 2.5 hours away. Feeling 100% confident to do this service myself now.
