There actually is a dipstick to check oil level on the right side of the engine below the clutch case... so make sure you haven't put too much oil in it because you may blow the oil pan gasket or worse-the headgasket!

because of you motornosity i went out and upgraded from a 2001 r6 to a 2017 matt black r6 what a dream bike already doing mods like yours.

Catching up on my subscriber videos and you make this oil change look so simple. I would have been freaking out just with taking off the plastic (I have broke several in the past). Thanks for sharing! Tell Abby Happy Mother's Day!

Motonosity is one of the few people who can make a good, fully informative video on this stuff. Great work my friend!!

I'm very impressed that you took time to answer so many comments! Keep up the great work Brent!

Had my bike for a while now but still love these motonosity DIY gems. 💪🏾

Dude thank you so much for your detailed videos! Everyone I buy a new bike/ car I always KZread how to videos to help me do my own work and I try to choose the best videos, and for my 2019 R6 it was all your awesome videos! Your such a cool dude, you have a beautiful family, and your down to earth. ALL of your videos are helpful! Especially the oil change, servo eliminator, and air mods video! Because of you I’m sending my ECU to Bauce Racing, who btw, are very professional and great to deal with! Keep you the solid work bro.👊

When I changed the oil on my 17 only removed the left lower cover and loosened the left side cover towards the back. Also the bike has a dipstick to check the oil level.

Dang, thanks man! I'll try out just removing that lower cowling next time. Also, can't believe I couldn't find that dipstick before haha. Found it checked, oil level is perfect :)

Motonosity the light just turns on when the oil pressure is to low. So you could damage your engine with to less oil.

This video was such a huge help! Changed my oil and filter successfully!

Love your videos bro! All the way from South Africa!

Hi! Can't believe you got a new R6! I love this bike since the first models! I've been giving my blood to my work in the last 4 years, that's why I actually didn't follow my inscriptions on YT, and I didn't even know you had changed channels...Thanks to ++AB I got the track back to Motonosity! HAHUAHUAH! By the way, in 2013 my life took a change and I had to move to a bigger city to work, then I got limited time to spent on internet...but in 2015 I finnaly got a Yamaha XJ6N! I'd made a couple videos on my own channel! It's nice to be back! Have good roads!

I like how you show things like this and people can ask as well :)

I know my r6 2014 I have no issue at all about cold start. and the way it is. I wish you were closer here. I'm in california and I thought you were in cali at first until I started following your blogs/videos, you're in Texas... But either way I will be watching you all the time for all the blogs/videos that you make for either of your bike but more in to your r6 because that is all I have to compare for now as what I have. thank you so much. love the quick shifter. I also have that for my r6 2014 but generic quck shifter gp style love it. I hady ecu flash by vcyclenut. keep up the good work.

channel locks are good as well. ive used them in the past to remove oil filters.

There's an oil dipstick below the fill cap, slightly towards the rear brake foot lever. It looks like an idle adjustment knob. Using that dipstick is the proper and only way to check your oil level.

Just bought 2017 r6 today. Can't wait till Monday so i can ride it. Waiting on the god damn Insurance...

Nice video thanks!Some practical Help for viewers: 1.you really only need to remove the very bottom left side body panel, and loosen the main left side panel. I saw he removed the entire left panel and upper small panel. That might be slightly helpful, but that’s really over kill. 2. the oil filter can be removed with a standard Toyota 14 four oil filter wrench if you have one handy which I did.

Such a beautiful bike

Maintenance vids are the next best thing to build series. Gotta build'em, ride'em, then maintenance'em. Please tell me that you're going to make a video installing a Dynojet power commander soon?

Just got myself a '20 R6, coming from a '09 600RR ABS. The Honda was designed that you could 'cheat' and change the oil/filter without pulling plastics. Looks like there's no way to do that here. Nice video, great job!

Really gud stuff bro no click bait just on point

I can't wait to see what you're going to do to this bike. it's gonna look sick

Channel locks work good too on getting the Filter off. Just used them to get the filter off my new R6

good job motonosity, i'll try to do these with my r6

hello, thanks for the videos that you have done, has helped me a lot to see this bike is really good. I would like to ask you what is her consumption to 100 km? I know it depends a lot on my driving but at least point in a normal driving up to 150 km/h

Thanks for posting! Yeah the cold start thing is an issue but not a big enough one for me to return it (this continues to happen after i changed my oil, dont know if me using 15w50 would make a difference)

saludos amigo Motonosity ,que tipo de aceite debe usar los R6 2008/2017' aqui la temperatura es de 28/32 grados centigrados. gracias y saludos desde VENEZUELA.

Great video thanks! I tried to use the link that's list below to buy the rear stand but the link is actually for a pressure washer..I'd thought I'd let you know, thanks for the video again!

Great tutorial. Well done.

Hi man, I have the same bike and loving it! Just took it for it's first oil change n was told the clutch is dragging, have u had any issues?

just a quick question. Do I have to change filter every time I change my oil or not. If yes what mileages. Let's say for an s1krr. Thanks

Great video! What tools are used? Embraco key I see, but not the other

I own a ktm rc 200 whis also has similar riding position as your bike. I have neck pains when i ride this for longer distances. do you face the same issue?

Can you make a video of 2019 R6 chain tensioning please? Also a guide to washing bike an safely cleaning radiator? Thank you!

Great Video man, What Torque wrench do you use? I was hoping to do this with mine as well

Thanks dude for cool video.

Thank you these viz r brilliant

Dope video mate

Hey man. Thanks for the video. I just bought mu 2017 r6 2 days ago and already put 400 miles on it. The dealership recommends at 600 miles to take it for the first maintenance. But its $650. Can u tell me whats all the do? Is it just oil change or the do more things to it? Your help will be much appreciated. Thanks for all the cool vid

awesome video buddy

I like your bike man,nice garage bro. What is the difference between your R1 and the R6? Is it a toce exhaust on your R1?

Just curious are the torque levels for re-tightening the drain bolt and filter in the owners manual? If not how do I find out what they are?

i love yor vids keep doing what your doing😀

This video is perfect! 👍

Awesome video. Thanks!!!

i hope to get more info from your new bike before i get mine because people out in youtube are complaining about the new bike with cold start and stuff like that.

+X Tian I've heard that as well and it does take a few extra seconds to start up that I would expect. But it DOES start. So unless any problems arise, it's really not an issue. I'll update on anything that I find noteworthy!

This was actually pretty interesting. All of my oil filters have always been internal.

would you recommend that I take mine in for the first service? I wanted to do it myself and save $. but if it's not required to take it in I'll do it myself

Excelent video bro

love you blogs. big fan of your blogs and I'm myself is yamaha r6 fan. and I'm actually looking forward to trade my r6 2014 to the new r6. just for the look that i like about the new bike and the electronics that came with the new one now.

+X Tian thanks a lot man!

for your new oil filter, you do not need to add new oil on the o-ring/ seal.. It comes greased from the factory. Thats half the reason why they add that plastic cover to it.

What torque wrench do you use for your whole bike? 1/2, 3/8 or 1/4?

You could have used I think either 6mm or 8mm bolts in the holes where the spools go and it will temporarily prop the bike on a pit bull stand. Until you get spools anyways... Loving the R6 videos

I've got a "KN 204-1" oil filter, will that still properly fit?

What’s your recommendation for changing your oil after first oil change?

After watching this video it makes me really appreciate my sv650s. No plastics to remove and takes me 5 minutes to do an oil change.

Like your videos they are pretty good. Watched yours before I did the oil change on my 17.. only thing to note the K&N filters leak now due to them being made in china.. just a heads up. FYI

Bro do you recommend ktm 390 with minimalistic mods or new Yamaha r6

Not that I own an R6, but this was a good tutorial :)

Man don't understand why Yamaha makes it so hard to get to the oil filter. That's why I like my zx10r it's right there at the bottom and very easy to get too. But u made it look easy so can't be to bad good video very informative!

Do those universal filter wrenches not fit on motorcycle filters? They sell them at Autozone for like $9

Does anyone's 2017 R6 shudder when shifting into 2nd or 1st from neutral? Doesn't lurch forward but I hear and feel a hard clunk

I have a tip, intead of punching a hole in the old oil filter with a screw driver, you can take it off by wraping it around with tape and then pulling down.

Hey, I followed every step on this video, but my engine light turned on once i was finished. Any suggestions?

Hi dude , may I ask 2017 R6 has two Oil filter?

get you a magnetic oil drain plug broski, very cheap and very helpful!

No clear window check or dip stick to check oil level>you have to go by a light on the dash.Motonosity.You make everything look easy and simple.Will you take your R6 in for service or is the oil/oil filter change enough????

man, i loved my Ninja 300 but it takes, what seems like a lot, just to do an oil change on these sportbikes. I got used to it though. Love how much easier it is on my Vulcan S.

Yyeeeeey new vid

I bought a r6 2017 and the guy at the dealership told me that the first time I change the oil I have to use 10w-40w oil and after the first time use 15w-50w always..... That's OK? What u think?

Brent, what exhaust are you going to upgrade to?

I really need this bike. But I'm sure there are some who need it more than I do. Someone is going to be very happy.

Nice video FIRE garage damn son!!

Nice . Where and what GoPro stand is that ?

Well done bro :D

I don't have a bike and I won't have one for at least the next 3 years but I am still watching this.

Well it’s been 3 years, did you get one yet? Lol

If there is enough room you can wrap your hand around the filter with sandpaper in your hand and twist

I really like the look 20th out the cowling

you can also use channel lock pliers to remove the oil filter...

Wait, do you have to have a valve adjustment done?

When is the next Jeep vid! That hood looks sick!

Yo, motonosity I know you probably wont see this but what kind of gas did you put in your r6?

I cannot get the quick screw faster out it seems as to be stripped. Any suggestions?

My quick fastener screw just spins and spins (center only as it should), but never loosens so the tabs can fit in. I am going crazy, thoughts??

Why do you put mobil instead of other brands?

I have a 2000 R6 I bought from someone now when I turn the key on and push the button or just clicks it will run when I push start it so I lookes undertne seat and tbere is a wire that is running from the negative side of the battery to the fuse box

Can u use the stand on the front of r6

I've never been this early, one of the first 300 viewers

What exhaust are you getting

So I'm at about 400 miles on my new r6/hardbreak in, I'm about to order the filter you got but they say it's not recommended for the bike. Did you ever have any problems with it?
