This guy is the shit man i have a 2017 r1 and everything I've done to my bike has been with this guys videos...so far so good man you've made me into a home mechanic. I love it

Brain thank you so much! My R1 was stolen and recovered and now I’m rebuilding it with your help - i have never worked on any motorcycle before. And the best thing is I ordered everything from SBTG shop! Thank you very much for sharing these videos

Brian there is a neat little air bleed screw just above the low point drain. The owners manual will show u. Works great for purging the air and takes a second

Hi Brian, so, I believe it's important to fill the system with destilated water first after you have drained the old coolant, let ir run until the fans come on and drain the water again, you'll see that there's still the old green coolant there that was trapped around the cylinders, if you skip this step then you'll be potentially mixing both coolants, just speaking from personal experience.

Great! I'm removing the cooler for putting in a new exhaust system. Purging and refilling the system is definitely a part of that process. Since I'm converting it to a dedicated track bike, I need to put in a track compliant coolant anyway. Thanks a lot for doing this video.

I just want to give a shout out. Thank you for making these videos they are perfect... makes life 10 times easier and cheaper on the every day rider. Thanks again.

The bolt that you used to bleed air was the drain plug, in the owners manual for R1 and mt-10 it says to crack the air bleed bolt for the water pump. Air bleed bolt is located right above the the clutch line by the water pump. Not saying you did it incorrectly or that this wouldn’t work but I changed my coolant today and I did you’re method with the drain plug to get out air but then also cracked the air bleed bolt and got a considerable amount of air that bled out the pump. I saw some comments about ppl following you’re video and then the bike overheating so yeah thought I’d add that in there.

I must thank sbtg for these vids. Helped me a whole lot with my r1.

Good info Brian. I didn't know about squeezing the hoses to purge out the air. Going to do this next warm day on my zx10r.

Beautiful bike just got a '18 R1M. It's a dream!

I followed your steps to the T and spent a while with the cap off squeezing the pipes and moving side to side to get air out , I did notice on the first heat cycle that the temperature gauge was all over the place jumping numbers and went a little higher than usual , after I let the fans kick in and go off four times it was acting normal again thank God, just wondering if you have experienced that on the first heat cycle after fresh coolant , I'm pretty sure the air is out now but the first heat cycle worried me a little 👍🏼👌🏼, thanks for the great videos

I really appreciate your videos thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. Blessings!!!

Great job , I need to do this but just wondering if I can re-use the washer on the drain bolt 👍🏼👌🏼

when you flash the bike the fan turns on much lower like 190 and it works alot better for cooling

whatever bike he rides, I ride from here on lmao

Thanks fellas. Appreciate these

Great video love this channel good clear concise instructions !

Thankyou in 2022…for my 2016 r1

My bike has two draining bolts, water pump and cylinder. Which one of the two should I remove? Thanks.

I was wondering what your thoughts were about using Evans waterless coolant? I used it on my R6 and it worked great. Thinking of using it on my R1.

I am looking forward to new projects

god dammit Tyler.... you got ONE job.

I just followed what u did on my bike , Thx u

Hi Van, Saludos from Venezuela…!!! Is there any particular reason you’re not using Water Wetter?... I bought from you online the WW to change my 2015 R1's cooling fluid, because on some other videos (not yours) they are using it, but now I see you did not used the WW on the 2015 R1 you had

Nice work Brian

Top vid very welll explained 👌 and very much appreciated 🙏

Thanks Man. That helped a lot.

Great Video..could you PLEEZEEE Do the same for the R3....Thanks !!

Are you kidding, I can't treat that like engine oil!!! The river is half a mile from here. I dump in my neighbors yard. Every year he puts all the crappie leaves off of his tree in my yard , ...Bro It's been a minute, or two, Your killing it friend.

Beautiful bike 🤤

Hey bro very nice video not as clean as your bikes but thanks for the detail you buy chance have any videos on gsxrs keep up the videos well appreciated thanks ride safe bro

Van, I just changed my coolant to Engine Ice. I flushed the old one with distilled water until I couldn't see any more blue coolant. Should I be alarmed if there is any coolant left in any other parts of the system as in the radiator or hoses. 2016 R1s. Thanks in advance.

I did the same process looking this video after everything exactly same. I now see check engine signs in my r1 dashboard.

When review Dashboard bike aim or starlane

09-14 r1, do I need to have bike centered upright like here? or can I have it tilted on kickstand and get same results?

Hey Brian, I got 2017 R6 and wanted to know after you run the water, should I run some coolant through after and drain it to pick up any remaining water? Love the content! Thanks

Help someone, everything was running fine, I did the coolant change on my 2018 R1 now it overheats even when fans come on, what gives? Not my first time changing the coolant pretty sure I did everything correctly

I thought there was an air bleed bolt on the 2015 R1

I also broke the drain bolt for coolant Anywhere else I can drain it from?

Please, this is the same principle for R1 2005??

Hey Brian, is it vital to let coolant out of the cylinder head drain bolt as well? I am troubleshooting coolant spill out of the overflow hose on my track bike and i am not sure whether i had air in the system or what. Someone suggested that it could be a head gasket but i got no funny exhaust smoke or milky oil. Suggestions?

Thanks for this vid

can you save jug 2 for next use or will it be garbage?

is there a R6 vid from STG how to change coolant , looked around cant find it

how many liters of coolant did you use?

How much does the bike hold full drain?

Hey Brian is there anything that needs to be done to the oil cooler system ? Or is the coolant change part of that

Im on the last step gettin the air out i filled it let the bolt out with cap off then filled it squezzed the hose filled again then capped it when i took off the bolt no coolant comes out like theres pressure holdin it in is that good to go?

Yea Tyler! Quit textin!

Hi, Could you upload oil change how to YZF-R1 2015-

jesus TYLER! texting and filming is dangerous

engine ice is junk. laughably low boiling point. ditch it and use evans coolant
