This is probably the best video for removing the tank on the 2014 and newer V-Strom 1000.

Nice video, thanks for this. The process is almost identical to the older 650 and 1000.

Thanks for making the video, I also kinda like the way the tank looks without all the plastics, looks a little more retro

Thank you so much for making this video! Perfectly detailed, incredibly helpful.

Geez, it way more complicated than any bike I've seen to get the tank off. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the video. It seems like it's not the best design for regular maintenance but . That's the problem with the more computers get involved over a human designing it.

Excellent video! Appreciate you posting. This will be very helpful when I remove my tank. Nice to know where those hidden zip ties are lurking

Hey this was great! I was installing heated grips and needed to get the tank off! You made it easy

Great video Jim, you make it look so easy.

Thank you for documenting and uploading very helpful. I have a 2017 model but suspect it’s exactly the same procedure

Excellent video and commentary, top stuff. Cheers. 👌

thx for the step by step tutorial on how to take out the fuel tank...

Shout out for this video tutorial. It has helped me immensely! 🍺🍺

Thanks for all the great videos. I am looking forward to you checking the valves of the 2015 v-strom! Cheers

Great video - I appreciate the detail that you went into. Thanks!

Another thank you for making this video! Extremely helpful. I have a 2019 1000XT Adventure.

Awesome Jim, helpfull video....now i can change my air filter to myself....Come to Italy and join with us !!!

Thanks for sharing! Very helpful!!

Top quality video ,many thanx.

Thanks for the vid, helped a lot!

Just saved this link to my V-Strom folder.

I really wish you had taken the time to pan the camera around under the tank and around the filter canister. I guess I'll have to take it apart anyway, but I was hoping to get a clue as to where the air intake was, and if it was amendable to making some sort of pre-filter that could be accessed easier. Nothing worse than having to tear your bike down to this level at a campground in the dark to simply bang and blow an air filter you clogged on a dirty ride. Or on the trail.

Great vid! Thanks! Reminded me of doing this on my 09 V Strom 650 about 10 years ago. Now I have an 18 V Strom 1000 glad to see they’re pretty similar actually! Did you ever do the wiring fuse box video? Love to see it if you did!

Thank you very much!! great video... and good quality imagen!!

I'd cover up the tank while taking of all the screws, so not to risk scratches...like the video...very usefull :-)

Thank You!

tempting to just leave the plastic off when you're done. I had a KZ650; air filter was right under the seat. Procedure took less than 5 minutes. No tools necessary.

thanks for your video. Suzuki believes that it should be designed to make maintenance easier. The low-level disassembly should be done when the level of work such as the abs module or engine cylinder is necessary, and the spark plug air filter should be designed so that it can be easily done at the level of the brake pad oil filter, so that the motorcycle does not break down further. If you had to change the air filter while tearing off number 10 like that, how much risk would the bike be exposed to... It's easy to postpone replacement even if it's uncomfortable. I think it would be great if the design could be changed so that one side cover could be removed and replaced if possible...

Thank You Thank You Thank You

Cool . Thanks .

Every how many milles needs to reemplace de air filter as well spark plugs? And great video by the way definily id suscribe to youre Chanel

Спасибо друг👍🤟🤝

와~ 필터가 저기있구나 👍

Excellent work and explanation. Removal of all the plastic panels on the tank was not strictly neccecary for this job, was it..?

Hi! Thanks for the video, but one question.... I have V-Strom 1000 xt, 2017 year model, for remove gas tank I must do same, or have changes? Thanks.

Thanks for showing how to do it. What crash bars do you have? Givi? where did you buy them?

Hi , your video is on the track! Can you made a video for the 4 spark plugs vstrom 1000 2015 ( mind is 2014)

Anyone else having trouble getting the fuel line back on.. mine the green tab doesnt want to snap back down... hardest part of my valve adjustment lol

Vstrom looks best in white

Are you going to show us how to adjust the valves? what sparkplugs are you using? Keep up the good work.

Do you have a video on rear brake light removal?

hi I need help, may you can help, I have error FI c17 and can't figure out what can be (v-strom 1000 2015) thx

I have to say this worries me. I’ve just bought a ‘18 XT. My old ride, a KLR, had me changing/cleaning air filters every month. They would get so clogged up the bike wouldn’t run past idle. I live in Kenya and red clay dirt is part of life. More than 50 percent of my riding is on dirt roads and 100 percent is in dust! (Unless it’s the muddy season 😉)

Can you please recorded, how to replace spark plugs, the front one., Thx MASTER!

I wonder how much of this applies to the 2018 VStrom 1000 tank removal?

With the 2 vent lines on the tank, there's another smaller line in that bundle. It's bent to almost a 90 degree angle. That just hangs freely correct?

Thanks.

Great video my friend, but you could record videos in Portuguese, for Brazilians your subscribers would increase a lot, it's just an idea.

Does the fuel tank have to be empty`?

How to change spark plugs?

What a Misson and Labour intensive deal, just to do an air filter

nice t shirt... where can i get one? :)

The air filter should be easy to change, a 10 min job tops, who designs these bloody things these days? is it so most people will take the bike to a dealer to get the filter changed? I wonder if the redesigned vstrom 1050 model is the same? or maybe even worse to do?

pain in a arse...
