The Best Chemicals & Oils for your Dirt Bike/shop! 

This is the guy that can keep your moto career on a budget

Thanks for all the down to earth info, Jay. Much appreciated.

Your videos are great! Thanks for all of the super helpful info. As a fellow "old dude" I love these budget "real world" recommendations. It's great that you don't just blindly buy the high dollar stuff like the manuals recommend. I'll try the T4 Rotella.

Jay, try Shout laundry pre-cleaner for bike wash. Blast off the chunks, soak with Shout. Let it sit then come back and hose off. It has a good, neutral pH that doesn't hurt anodizing or aluminum. I also use Kroil for loosening stuck fasteners. Kroil is expensive but so much better than PB Blaster. Give it time to let it work.

I love engine ice coolant in my kx450f. I change it at the start of every season (red sticker bike). Never overheated

You persuaded me to snag some Rotella for my CR250. I change the oil every ride as it is and that gets expensive using the motorcycle lubes.

New to your channel came here from one of your tire videos. Great info and the way your explain stuff. Thanks for the video brother

Thanks for the straightforward explanations about what you use! Appreciate it

Gotta love this honest advice.

Honda polish for last detail, super cheap and easy to use I use rotella in everything I own and amsoil dominator 2stroke

Really interesting video I'd like to see more people doing videos like this i think everyone has their go to products im going to try the glass cleaner and scrubbing bubbles see how it works

Awesome video. Love how you replied to pretty much everyone. Question i had was already answered by you in the comments

I watched this because of the rotella in his hand.wanted to see what he said. Been using it for years works Great

Thanks for sharing! Very helpful

Finally some one who has the same perspective as I have had for years regarding chain lube and the dirts they attract acting as grinding compounds. What Motorex grease is in the tub you liked? What is the specific name or part # or...?

Such a golden video thank you guys!!!!!

I love the content on this channel thank you sir

This dude and this video is decent Lucas is gtg as well for the price can't beat it tbh great lubricity

Great video bro thanks. I'm going to start using Rotella in my xr600 and my 07 Silverado and my 03 Freightliner and my 79 C70 Detroit Diesel thanks bro now I only need one oil.

Shell t4 is definitely good stuff. Ive used quaker 1040 oil as well on a pinch with good success but mabye i got lucky wit that one. Most important thing is to change the dang oil, its a 4 minute job. I use shell currently in my klx125, and used it on a yz80, xl185, XR80, and piranha 90. I find it performs well especially with air cooled motors since theyre the ones that get the hottest. And wd40 i use to lube my throttle cable, I used it for tire changes, and chain lube. People hate on the stuff for whatever reason...

the thing i found that i like about the tire paste is it dries and turns to dust as opposed to making the tube and tire stick like all the other stuff i tried

wow I agree 100% on WD 40 for chain lube, I use to use chain lube yrs ago but got tired of the cost and could never really see a difference in performance between a designated chain lube and WD 40, plus its alot easier to clean

Last year i ran only Lucas 10W-40 for the trans, and Lucas Oil Mix for the gas, the bike went just over 100 hours on stock everything! when we tore it down to rebuild, everything was spotless! it is obviously very good stuff, but now this year with his new 2022 KX85, we run only Kawasaki Performance Oil, and mixing Oil, we will see how everything looks when we tear it apart.

Excellent video!

Thanks for the video Jay I just bought a 2022 YZ 250x two-stroke so it is safe to run the Rotella T4 in the transmission ? and I’ve been running the Amsoil dominator but I really love the smell of the bean oil and I know the klots R50 Has some bean oil in it so if I switch to the klots R50 what ratio should I run it ?we do mainly trail riding or dual sport trails and gravel roads please respond thanks Jay I’ve always love the smell of the bean oil but in the past couple years I have seen lots of bad reviews on the Castro 927 so I switched to the dominator hated to give up that smell but it was failing plugs in my bike and running oil out of silencer had to replace packing old bike so I made the switch to the dominator Amsoil but I would love to go back to that smell I just have never ran the klots R50 thanks again for the content and keeping it real and not letting big manufactures influence your con tent nice to see someone as popular as you being down to earth and honest mad respect🙏🤘👍✊

Another mechanic that uses WD-40 on chains!! Awesome, I get so much slack for using it, but I feel the same way as you do about the O-rings.

I like to use a little Shoe-Goo for my grips. It works great and is inexpensive.

Love your video! Just a question about the Motorex grease, did you mean the white grease, bike grease, 2000 or 3000?

Ya great help here for good products proven to work that don't break the bank

Jay, thank you for all the beneficial posts you take the time to do out of your busy day. I just bought a 2021 FC350 and it says the engine oil needs to be fully synthetic. Is the Shell safe/good to use?

now i can use stuff found in walmart!!! save on maintenance stuff that works! i start using this Dupont chain lubricant and degreaser from walmart as well and works great! good lubrication and easy to take it off!

I'm buying rotella from now on

I run rotella t6 full synthetic 5w40 in my atvs. I buy it in 5 gallon pale to service my superduty. It takes 16L so leftovers are for toys.

If you change your oil every 5 hours can you get 2 or 3 usage out of the same oil filter? 2014 ktm 350 xcf-w

Everybody has their own preference on chemicals .. always like to see what other people use

This dude is awesome ❤

It was nice to hear you say pam, I have used it a lot over the years as well fun stuff. Keep up the fun videos sir. dale

Good to know all the info on affordable effective chemicals. Any thoughts on hydraulic clutch fluid that is alternative to the expensive Magura Blood ?

Duly noted. But I’ll spend the extra just to support the brands within the sport.

You can buy 5 gallon buckets of the same oil at the store or online for a lot less than 10 individual one gallon oil cans.

If you rinse simple green off after a few minutes will it cause any damage?

Simple green stained my motor casing on the right side bad. Sprayed it on when the engine was hot and it’s stained. Looks like I had a oil leak but didn’t

Great content. Thx!

Thank you!!

For grips I always use clear spray paint spray a bit in the grip and done deal

Did you know that all of the dot approved brake fluid you can buy in the USA comes from the same 2 plants? It’s tightly regulated and 2 companies make it all, no matter what it says on the label.

what's your opinion on maxima coolanol coolant?

Great info. Thank you.

Rotella is the best. But I like amsoil dominator the best for my 2 stroke

I have a 2005 Crf450r and 20 crf450x can Rotella be used for both sides motor and Tran?

I've heard rotella in the DRZ400s makes it bubble/ foam have your ever heard of this?

Everyone hates me for using rotella in my bike. "Say goodbye to your clutches" These are the same people who pay bookoo bucks for a carb clean. I'll let them spend 16 bucks a quart at the stealership.

Hey Jay I’m surprised you use Scrub n Bubbles. The PH is so acidic. I Love your content bro

Rotella and klotz My man

Is the Shell Rotella t4 good for the clutch considering it doesn’t have additive for the clutch?

Awesome vid. Thank you. The Hunter mounting paste is orderable on eBay.

Klotz 2 stroke all day ! Made in Fort Wayne Indiana .

Is the rotella t ok for a wet clutch?

Jay, what would you use to get the tiny littler spec of dirt that are stuck in/stained the cast engine cases?

Should I run 1540 shell Rotella on a 2003 Xr 70 ?

Might be a stupid question… Iv been running Yamalube 10w-40 in my 23 YZF250 since it was brand new. It has about 24 hours on it. Would it be ok to just switch to Rotella t4 15w-40?

What kind of grease is the black container?

What about the rotella 15w40 for a rekluse clutch. ??

Motorex has several different types of grease, which is the most recommended for the bearings of the motorcycle wheels and for the motorcycle in general?

Hi there would a 2018 ktm 350xcf be ok to run rottella 15W40.P.S love the videos very helpful

Thanks

I found it the best oil always depends on Whose selling it to you when you're breaking in a motor use a non-synthetic after that depending on your motor in my case high RPM 2 stroke I like a synthetic or whatever I can get my hands on but the best oil is always oil mixed in the gas for your 2-stroke LOL this was a joke people oil does matter but as long as it's a good brand oil you will be okay don't believe the hype but make sure you have oil cuz when you run out you will be wondering why your oil went bad LOL

"...cuz I don't like going to Walmart any more than I have to." LMAO!

Can i use this on my hona cr85?

I know you’re supposed to run motorex oil in the KTMs. Would you be able to use shell rotella for ktm and without causing premature wear?

How do you ship Oil? Is there a way.

I run rotella in everything I own.

So is that just the regular WD-40 you use to lube o ring chains ?

Hey Jay! I got a 2011 crf250r and in the owner’s manual they recommended 10w-30 oil, should I put the rotella 15w-40 or rotella 10w-30? Thanks

Is the Rotella good for both sides of the crf450r? I have left over Castrol GTX 10w40 synthetic that will no longer be used for my car. Could I use that in my bike to get rid of it? Thanks

Are you putting the rotella in your transmission as well? Lol cause I’ve been using the Honda transmission oil on my crf450r

Any particular reason you use the T4 regular instead of the T6 synthetic?

So 15w 40 is good for all the parts in the dirt bike and atv motor and what about the clutch is it ok for that to??

I would read manual for engine oil and filter changes. Mine is every 6 races or 15.0 hours.

hey bud i got a 2015 kx 450f and it been dogged i’ve got taken with a bandage pig what kind of oil should i run in this bike i’m new to 4 strokes should of stayed with 2 lol but the oil looks to be thick and yellow what would you put in this thing thanks bro much love

I have seen Rotella T6 used a lot in 2 stroke dirtbike transmissions and street sportbikes but never T4. T6 has JASO listed on its label but not the MA or MA2 symbol as none of the Rotella oils have been sent to Japan for JASO testing and certification. Not saying the Shell products would not meet the JASO as Shell says they believe their oils do. Thus it would be illegal for Shell Rotella to put the JASO MA, MA2 symbols onto their containers. I thought everyone used Belray waterproof grease. LOL. I have used it for 30 years.

The only guy I trust

The Rotella T4 is harder to find these days. but they usually have T5 and T6. Seems like only difference is T5 syn blend and T6 full syn. What are your thoughts about the Rotella T5 or T6?

What's the difference between Rotella T4 and Rotella T6? I used Rotella T6 in my DR650... Not sure if that was a good idea.

I'm running EBC DRC clutch and they won't recommend any synthetic. Is Rotella good, Is it Synthetic?

I just follow the manual. Yamalube has worked.

Do you use rotella for the transmission and engine oil?

I’ve been thinking about switching to rotella for all of my quads and dirt bikes. Should I use t4 or t6?

I had heard the rotella wasn’t as good as it used to be and rekluse no longer recommends it. I run all amsoil and love it.

*What about transmission (dexron 3) fluid in a GasGas Trials 2 stroke for the oil change?* It was in it when i bought it changed it out for the recommended oil later. Couldn't tell much of a difference ride wise, but hard to tell longevity. The price is much cheaper for trans fluid though.

Would you run that 15w-40 in a bike that calls for 15w-50 like a ktm 350?

Napa auto parts sells tubs of tire paste for 20$ how does that compare to the stuff from hunter?

*can i use the rotella t4 15w40 on my honda cr85?

Is the Rotella T4 15w-40 engine oil safe for 2017 yz450f?

Three pieces of safety wire on your grips vs glue. Won't slip, ever.

For years I have been saying Maxima Chain Wax is designed to sell more chains. If you put wax on a chain the dirt sticks and wears it out faster. But that being said Motorex Chain Lube is fully synthetic and acts just as WD 40 it works amazing.

What’s the best gear oil for a Crf250r

will rotella work for a ktm 690 enduro?

Is she’ll Rotella safe for wet clutches??

I run yamahlube 2r oil for two stroke
