Basic Motorcycle Maintenance Part 1/5

Going to split this into a few parts. I'm prepping my bike for a trip to Deals Gap and I'm riding down on the bike. I just want to make sure the bike is in check before I depart. This video involves cleaning the air filter, changing and gapping spark plugs, cleaning the air suction reed valves and oil change.

what type of k&n filter do u have? is it the race type filter or is it the regular one

[wedginator]

@maniackawboy It's the regular k&n. I didn't know they have a race filter?

[ThatDayumWood979]

How long do you let the filter dry for, especially if it's not a sunny day. Is there a specific time period?

[Bulgdoom]

I believe those K&Ns are all considered "race" cuz they're cotton vs paper. Cotton lets more air but also a lot more dirt so in reality paper are the best filtration and my personal choice especially as a daily ride

Your vids are the go-to videos for my motorcycle maintenance. Also helps that I have a NInja, too
