Thanks man. I really appreciated that you break it down to the laymen watching like myself. Sometimes when you aren’t familiar with a process you don’t focus on the most important aspects of working on a motor like the crush washer and over tightening the plugs

thank you! super helpful video. my dad and i just got a 2009 vulcan 500 and i’m changing the oil today

This is a really good video. Clear and to the point. Many thanks.

Awesome video. Big thumbs up. Have a great weekend.

Thank you so much that is super Chrystal clear and pleasant to hear .

First time changing the oil on my bike. Thank you for this tutorial. Awesome

Been watching several of your gun videos and found you also share interest in the Kawasaki 1500. Be safe.

Nice bike. I have a 3003. 1600 Vulcan. Love the bike. Got close to 71K on it. Runs strong to this day.

I've been a subscriber for along time. This is the first video I've seen that wasn't gun related.

Thank you so much. Now I feel confident on doing it myself. Thanks again!!

Awesome ride!

I know this is an old video, but I was taking a quick look to where the oil filter was on my bike and who do I find. Old WHOTEEWHO, one of my favorite boolat slangers. Thanks brother!

Thanks for the informative video.........enjoyed watching it

Hey thanks--just a question I have 2003 1500 classic in which they is also a small plug opposite side to remove the collecter spring???? which collects any debris??? in case--this is done before rplacing your new oil?? have you doner this??

Always remember to double check to make sure old oil filter gasket has been removed. Double gasket will result in a blown engine..

Thanks for your time and the video. I have this bike! Smooth ride. Biting at the bit to start riding. Been a long winter in Ohio...Lol

Thank you, helped me a lot

Great tutorial... thanks

Nice! Cheers from Bolivia

Oh cool video thank you

Could you please tell me what could be causing a clunk while shifting up or down and how to fix it I just bought a 2002 kawasaki Vulcan 1500 classic. Thank you very much!!!

Good looking bike.

Great video thanks

Is there a reason you had your front lowered? I just got an '03 meanstreak

Man that is one beautiful bike. If you have no use for the oil bottles the new oil came in - take a real sharp knife & cut them completely in have & use the residue on the sides of the bottles to lubricate your firearms after you clean them = Just a tip from JAMES in Cali.

Love the seat on that bike! What seat is that,i wanna get me one of those for my bike!

true blue help! preciate Cha much 👍

how easy is it to fix a oil drain plug hole that the slandered drain plug leaks on and yes it has a crushed ring on it , got the big used and I believe the guy buggered up the threads and when I tighten the plug down it gets to about tight and then just spins loose , how easy is it to tap the hole to a bigger size plug??

Great video...Thank you....I'm trying to change the pul on my meanstreak 1600, I can't get the oil filter to move at all...nit much leverage given the low ground clearance, looks like you have safely managed to prop the bike up on something solid to allow you more leverage to open your filter....any tips on how you did this?

Good video, really helpful. One question, on your bike (same as mine) can you please tell me where the fuse box is located. Thank you.

Great video. Thank you dude. This is my 1st bike and my 1st oil change on it

Where are the Ruger American's at?? I was looking at kawasaki vulcan videos & seen one of my favorite gun-tubeers. Who Tee Who is everywhere 😄.

I like the muffler on the bike I was wonder if we can get those at

Good video, but you forgot to remove the screen and clean it off with brake clean or even some gas. If you look directly below the oil fill plug, all the way down at the bottom side, there will be a bolt that if you remove it, there's a screen in there. It catches all the gunk and debris in your engine case. I take mine out every oil change and clean it with brake clean. It's also a good way to keep tabs on what's going on inside tour engine!!

Hey man when you put your new pipes on did you have to get the carbs re jetted?

what kind of pipes r on that bike they do sound really good

Thank you brother. One question, what type of oil filter do I use for a 1998 Kawasaki 1500 special

What kind of pipes do you have on it? They sound awesome

I notice that you had the front wheel raised higher than the rear wheel. Was there a reason you did that? Would you still get an accurate level in the sight glass? I would've thought it would cause the oil level to read a little higher, as the oil would gather more in the back of the sump?

YOU FORGOT TO SHOW PEOPLE HOW TO CLEAN THE OIL PUMP SCREEN WHILE DOING THE OIL CHANGE!!

Good afternoon ma dear... hope the Mrs n kids are all safe n well. And yourself of course. LOL My big cousin was the Scottish motorbike speed champion and it was Kawasaki he has always rode for! He's the main dealership here too. xXx have you got the Mrs to sing at our fire range or whatever it is....i Keep getting it wrong!! Haha xXx

Whats seat is thay I'm looking for a better seat I have a Mustang it's not wide enough for me and the passing part is even worse

I'm wondering n I've got a 2003 and every time I went to the garage with it, the also flushed the transmission oil witch is supposedly the same oil! Do I do this also?

I use this universal tool I picked up to change my motorcycle oil . It is called the C9 ! I change my oil every mile . No need for a filter that way .

What about oil filter screen?

what kind of pipes are on your 1500 .. I'd like to change out mine

I have a 1600 nomad. And I cannot find the oil screen anywhere. Do all of them have it?

I'm new to bike riding and I'm about to purchase a 2003 Vulcan where the guy said it's sat for 7 years but he drain the fluid and it starts and has a new battery he says all he needs is to be serviced what exactly does that mean

If you dont mind me asking what type of foot controller are those on your bike (5:12)? need to get new set for bike i just purchased. cheers

So it's only 3 quarts? Thanks.

I have an 2000 vulcan 1500N FI do you know how to adjust the idle? And where the idle screw is located?

Wondering about the oil screen. Should we not pull and clean at the same time?

What pipes are those? That idle is an eargasm

If you have a screen filter on the passenger side be sure to clean it before you fill with new oil oil

I can not find an oil level window. Vn1500d classic, 1997. Who can help?

Hey My son has a same bike and he poured 4 cans of oil and now the oil indicator plug is always on Should we drain the excessoil pouredin or we can ride the bike as it is.. we are in Troy MI.

I have a Kawasaki Vulcan 800 how much oil do you use

Reguar 10-40 wet clutch motorcycle oil correct?

I just changed the oil my my 02 Vulcan 1500 and 50 miles later I checked and it was brown,is this normal? Please let me know! Thank you very much!!@

Where do you find what kind of oil is recommended for the oil change? And where can you buy the oil and filter for it?

There´s a screen filter on the other side of the engine that needs service too, brother.

What pipes do you have on that bike

Hoody hooo!!!! Knuckle up buckle up!!!!

Do you use synthetic oil or regular oil

Смотрим в России ваше видео . Очень полезно . Спасибо.

Was that regular car oil 10 w 40

Where did you get the pipes?

Did you use regual car oil

There is a prefilter screen that should be removed and cleaned. It is directly across from the drain plug on the left side.. You don't even need to remove the drain plug.. If you remove the plug for the screen it is a way better way to drain the oil. It gets it all because it's leaning that way on the side stand and it's the lowest point. Another plus is the regular oil drain plug strips out easy and the screen plug dosnt. To remove and clean.. Remove plug on left side (17 mm) use brake clean or another fast evaporating solvent to spray the screen. If never cleaned before it may have gasket material and metal flakes in it.. That's normal if it's never been done just clean it out put back in and fill with oil to 1/2 way between the lines..

you did replace the oil cap before running the bike didn't you?

You did not cover how to do a burn Out Steve! :)

I'm having trouble the second gear popping out anybody has any clue please give me some information thank you

So the book says 3-1/2 quarter, you only put 3, I just got a 1999 Vulcan nomad 1500cc, first time I rode the motorcycle oil spit out behind the cylinder near the breather, I was told that to much oil in engine will spit out, I have the bike straight and the oil level was way above H, I did drain some to get the level in between L and H but still spitting out, I was told to keep the oil level right above the L,

5:32 hahahaha

What year is the bike??

Your idle should be 950-1k rpm. Yours sounds like 650-700. Also you never mentioned the boards under the front tire.

The 2000cc vulcan is completely different. 3 drain plugs and filter in the front.

Didn't clean the screen filter

U missed the screen

Whode who

☝🏽 Attention ☝🏽 That’s ugly seats and ugly designed tank and the sound is good but the pipes and the handle bars don’t go with that bike and that sissy bar..You should have turned it into a bobber then the pipes and handle bars would look good and it looks like it needs saddle bags 💼
