    Great content YY… Learned a lot. The trick with hooking the rear stand onto the bike first before setting it down while lifting the bike off the kickstand is pure Genius. Jus got a rear stand couple weeks ago. Been doing it ALL WRONG 😑. Good job Dude. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

    Great video bud! Couple things old piece of cardboard stuck between exhaust collector and chain keeps cleaner /lube off of it, and and can catch the gunk as you brush it off. Use a Sharpie to mark the adjuster bolts, helps us older fellas without glasses keep track of turns. And yes that German torque spec you used is fine, tightened to GOODUNTIGHT😆 works every time! Keep up the good work and ride safe!

    You could also put cardboard or newspapers under the rear area to catch all the drips. Also, many motorcycle chain manufacturers recommend kerosene to clean the chain. Very affordable and works great. For lubing the chain, the Grease Ninja works great!

    Nice. Couple of tips I use - use kerosene to clean the chain instead of those expensive products. Kerosene is also the best for cleaning road tar/grime from the exhaust, engine, oily bits of the bike. When tightening the axle back up the wheel CAN move slightly. A mechanic taught me to put an object - screwdriver, small spanner, etc - between the chain and the rear sprocket nearest the floor. Gently turn the rear wheel and the screwdriver will jam between the chain n sprocket and pull the wheel snug to the blocks. Hold it gently and tighten. Perfect every time. Chain lube - the chain manufacturers themselves recommend you use gear/diff oil. Basically heavy weight oil. This is not some witchcraft it’s written on the manufacturers boxes that the chain comes in.. good video though.. I also agree that a piece of cardboard under the bike is better than water

    And yet if it is seriously tight without a torque wrench like out on the road? Or just whatever? It is NOT coming off ever! Especially since tires and chain wont even allow things to go for years or that many miles...Hell I was a Kawasaki mechanic in the 70s and NOBODY used torque wrenches on axle nuts or pretty much anything other than engine and I never saw anything come undone ...in fact tire places and such never torqued car and truck wheels until more recent decades when so many wheels became aluminum and I imagine there were lawsuits spawning laws and regulations and policy requiring such (which is all good)....but steel on steel good and tight (not stupid tight though lets just be serious that sh!t is NOT coming off ...period...not saying dont use a torque wrench if handy by all means do! I am just saying it would be nothing to lose sleep over...I can just picture someone being too afraid to ride their motorcycle because they dont have a torque wrench to tighten axle nut after chain adjustment.....dont make me laugh...btw it IS a lock nut too! Historically they always had cotter pins

    I normally put a rag between the chain and the sprocket. Rotate the wheel back and it actually cams the wheel forward, shoving the blocks into the adjusters. While doing that I then tighten up the axle at the same time.

    Nice video. As a suggestion to keep the concrete, driveway pavers, or even garage floor free of overspray: Head over to your local school and contact the music director and ask for old bass drum heads. Drum heads are made from plastics, usually mylar, or a polyester mix. They have a metal rim, and are easily cleaned.

    Bad advice for three reasons: 1) One of the most important parts is setting chain slack and the owners manual procedure was not followed. 2) you always set the axle nut to the owners manual specification as bad things can happen if you over or under torque that nut. 3) you do not kick the tire into position, a small object is placed between chain and bottom portion of sprocket, then tire is rotated and held forward while you tighten the axle nut.

    dude, just use carboard between the tire and chain and ground. so easy. no need to water your driveway . and your chain is way too loose.

    Well the Maxima is a Chain Degreaser. So I’m sure it will not. The Big Orang???? Possibly. But my R1 has 12,000 miles with the same chain an I clean it the same way. Zero issues and looks as new as day 1. Buy definitely use what you think works best for your chain. Thank you for watching the Channel.

    Dont trust user manual on atleast 2nd gen mt09 since it says that slack should be 5-15mm (0.2-0.6 inches). Which is way too tight.

    The owner manual is wrong on the chain tension. It indicates 36-41mm measurement from the bottom chain wear strip. It should be slack travel between those measurements. I got hold of the technician service manual from Yamaha to prove damage to my gearbox was their fault! Hopefully you all know this!

    Not quite sure what you mean on this? The manual for the pre 2021 bike has a different way of measuring the slack to the newer bike. Older one has the 5-15mm by measuring the total slacki.e both up and down movement. Whilst the newer bike has you measuring down from the chain strip whilst pushing down total 36-41mm. Two different ways of measuring. Not sure what your saying is wrong? If I understand, your saying that the 5-15mm from previous bike is now 36-41mm on the new model. Measuring both the same way. ( Total slack up and down) Thats a big jump if thats the case?

    To have gearbox issues, im presuming it was the output shaft bearing on such a new bike, the slack would pretty much have to be zero, to wear that quickly. Im intrigued to know what the service manual from yamaha you aquired said that is different to the owners manual?

    Always tighten the chain on its tightest spot or you risk it being miles too tight on the tightest spot. Torque the axle nut.

    Never rely on the adjustment notches to adjust a chain they were all absolutely useless on the 10 + bikes i owned. To do it right you need a chain alignment tool, motion pro makes à good one. Instead of kiking the tire, put a rag between the chain and sprocket and turn the wheel to jam the rag it will tighten the chain and pull the wheel all the way in. Check forums rspecially for the mt09, xsr900 chain looseness specs and for the torque values of the axle nut. The values are insanely wrong to the point of causing damage. I simply never rely blindly on any specs in any yamaha shop manuels. I could write à small story about this.
