Thanks a bunch. 1st air filter service and this made it so much easier than just reading the service manual.

Happy to help Darren!

Love that intro montage. Never gets old. Thanks for the walk-through!

The owner's manual description of this process is hilarious. A couple of pencil sketches. Thank you so much for this video.

@Michael_Mears 3 года назад

12:04 yes, agree with you there. It's certainly a pain to get to, but if the tanks off, you might as well inspect/clean/replace the air filter. Thanks for taking the time to video it all. Cheers, from Oz.

Good job mate, very well done. I have the same model and colour VStrom 650 XT. I have just finished checking my valve clearances at 52,000 km ( first time) Only one intake valve was in the centre of the specification, the other 7 were all at the lowest end of the specification. Seeing that I had got that far I decided to change the shims of the 7 valves. Now they are all in the middle of the specification. It’s a bloody big job and quite stressful for a 79 year old. I also replaced the rear disc pads. There is a very good tutorial on google for checking and replacing shims for our bikes. Hit me up for that information if you need it. Greetings from Australia.

Well, now you're my V-Strom mechanic. Hope you're happy. Lucky you, they never break so this is going to work out. 😁

I’m glad Suzuki engineers adding the green clip for the fuel pump removal (10:27) The first generation was difficult to remove.

@passinthru4328 2 года назад

As a prospective buyer of this motorcycle (I currently own a CB500X), I found this video answers questions I've been wondering about, like how to access the air filter and the engine for valve clearance adjustments. Well done sir!

@OzADVRider 3 года назад

Nice work, I know how hard it is to be the mechanic/camera man/ commentator all in one. The job is so much easier without trying to record it.

@TTADV 3 года назад

Once it's your billionth (approximate) time doing it, the filming, commenting and performing isn't all that bad XD hahaha

@Hutchie2112 3 года назад

I weep in memory of the olden days, when , if well maintained, bike tanks were held on by a single lovely bolt at the back, and slid over daft big rubber bits on the front :) If not well maintained, bolt not required. Now , I need a map, a laptop, oxygen tank and ambien to be able to even contemplate removing the tank on my T7

@TTADV 3 года назад

It's so funny you mention this. I remember when I bought the 1980 Yamaha and was able to remove the tank with one 12mm bolt. I was like "this can't be right" :p

@Hutchie2112 3 года назад

ACF 50 is allegedly safe and good for rubber, so I used a dab of that :)

ive had 4 stroms and its easier to trade in than change air filter 🤣

@gBeau55 2 года назад

K, really like u dude! Been dreading changing air filter on my 18 Strom. Your video made it easy peasy! Really not that bad. Thanks to u, took about an hour and some change to take apart,add new filter, put back together. Probably take u der 45 mins next time. Thanks again. Oh where did you get those front fork boots BTW? Like em

@TTADV 2 года назад

Rancho shock boots from Amazon! :)

@stalkertechnics 8 месяцев назад

I don't know if I would have bought one if I had knew this before. All this needs to be done ever year for the inspection of the rear spark plug. Front spark plug then needs the radiator to be tilted. For adjusting (or changing) the low beam, you have to at least partly remove the speedometer, which also needs the fairings to be removed. If I compare it to my wifes F700GS, the V-Strom is just unbelievable complicated to work on. And all that basically only for the better engine sound of a V2. 😐

@orhansogut5492 Год назад

What is this sponge for, the one under the air filter???

@alcesspectre 3 года назад

Saved to my list to watch later, well overdue for a new air filter (among other things). Always have trouble with plastics and end up breaking tabs, been running high beam only because of this haha.

@TTADV 3 года назад

Time to get er done! ;) Also, you don't need to lift the tank to get at the headlights. :)

@alcesspectre 3 года назад

@@TTADV yeah just some of the plastic pieces need to come off I think. It's almost a guarentee I'll break something when everything is plastic.

@TTADV 3 года назад

Just an excuse to add your own aesthetic to the bike ;)

@saulocpp 6 месяцев назад

I don't know what is worse: replacing the air filter on the DL650 or the battery on the XT660ZA, where you also have to remove half the front of the bike before the tank comes off.

@azstrong3636 Год назад

Just purchased a set of Aux lights to install and watched your video on how to remove the tank (brand new bike this will be my first tank lift). At end of video you mention you were installing lights as well which is my actual end goal as well. Do you have a link to the rest of the video for installing the wiring for the lights? Thanks for the video on the tank lift.

@TTADV Год назад

The footage was lost to the ether 🙃😭 I'm glad that you found the tank lift video helpful! :)

@jphblais 2 месяца назад

Thank you for this awesome tuto! I have a 2016, is it the same procedure except for the surrounding plastics?

@TTADV 2 месяца назад

It “should” be! 🤞Dr. Vstrom is a great channel for maintenance and repairs if you need additional reference material!

@francisbombardier7189 2 года назад

I don't do dirt only street. At how many miles should I check the air filter? Great video

@TTADV 2 года назад

I seem recall the owners manual suggesting it be checked every 12000km?

@cesartapia610 Год назад

What do I do if my oil sponge is falling apart? Thanks.

@TTADV Год назад

Great question. You’ll want to replace it with a lightly oil treated filter material that is as close to the original as possible. If I recall correctly, that sponge is meant to catch oil from the crankcase breather.
