Just a heads up for anyone doing they're own oil change on these bikes, my brother and myself just did our 1st oil changes based on this video *Thanks BTW*. We did some of the steps a little differently though and had some better results in terms of oil spillage, what we did differently, least on my bike, after running the bike for 5ish mins etc I checked the oil, then opened the fill port, then I emptied the oil pan, both nuts. Then we changed the filter on the front, which had very little oil spill out from it. Then we changed the DCT filter and had no oil spill out onto the side of the bike, all in all doing it this way minimizes oil spillage on the bike, which = less cleanup :D. How ever, upon putting the bolts back in on the DCT filter cap, which yes, we put them on by hand 1st then torqued them down to 9ft pounds, we both had the same bolt, *right side on the cap* snap the heads off, so be warned, these bolts quality is *VERY* poor and I don't know how Honda missed this issue. Even the left side bolts showed signs of stretching with just 9ft pounds of torque. We ended up having to go into town and replace all the bolts with some M6-1.0 x 16mm bolts, we then hand tightened them and applied 6nm instead of the mentioned 9ft pounds of torque and have had no issues since, but I feel like these bolts, and where they are would be fine with just being hand tight and then some since this isn't a high pressure area. Its best to be safe then sorry, so don't go by what the manual says instead hand tighten it and if you feel you need to torque it down don't go past 6-7nm *Yes NM Not FT Pounds* :) Hope this helps others with the DCT models :D.

Hi Gustavo. Just wanted to once again thank you for your wonderful step by step videos. Also, I wanted to share my personal experience while doing my first oil change at 600 miles. Everything in your video is spot on except when it came time to torquing down the DCT filter cover. You along with the Honda Rebel 1100 Service Manual state that 9 foot lbs should be used on the two 6M x 18 mm flange hex bolts. They require a 8mm head size socket or wrench. I now know exactly what the dimensions are on these two bolts because I broke/snapped one of them while applying the 9 ft lbs of torque. I called my Parts Department at my Honda Dealer to order some replacements. Spoke to a well knowledgeable parts and service guy who also owns a 1100 DCT bike. He told me that the Honda Service Manual is wrong in providing those particular 9 ft lbs of torque. He said that they should be hand tightened snuggly and evenly instead. Anyway, I wound up replacing both of those bolts. The second one, even though it did not snap, was severely stretched and distorted. Thing is, even when I was initially torquing down those bolts it just didn’t feel right to me since it just seemed like way to much pressure. Anyhow, I had to get some reverse bolt removal bits, drill a hole into the broken bolt, and than work it out of the hole. Thankfully none of the threads on the engine were stripped. So now I have two new bolts on the DCT filter cover that I hand tightened and so far so good. BTW, I later watched a video by Ron M and he also uses the hand tightening method for those bolts. Once again, thanks as always for all your helpful info 🙏😎🤞

I just got my 600 miles service done, dealer charged $200, didnt mind paying just to make sure everything was up to specs. Doing next oil change myself. Thanks for sharing, very informative.

Just bought my DCT, glad I watched this and read the comments about the bolts stretching and breaking. Lots of good stuff 👍🏼

This is the most articulate service video I have ever seen. If I ever sell the bike I’m going to tell people I did exactly what you did. Thanks so much 😊

Did an oil change last weekend using your guide, went very smooth. No stands were necessary, once drain bolts unscrewed you can straighten the bike to assure complete drainage. Also poured little oil into new filter before installing it to prime filtering matter.

THANK YOU for putting the part numbers in the description. I've been looking for them for about an hour before I thought to check your video for them. I'm a little overdue for my 600 mile oil change and need to get the stuff ordered >.

You're an absolute legend for this video and every other video. Thank you!

Thanks for the video. I’ll change the oil myself. Definitely helpful video. Thanks a lot

Thanks- I almost forgot about the DCT filter.

Just picked up my 2024 Rebel (manual) a couple weeks ago, and getting ready for a 200 mile oil/filter change. I don't have a pair of pink pumps, but sure I can get by. 😀 Thanks for informative video!

Thank you for sharing the torque measurements!

love it - Very detailed instructions with complete parts replacements and even torque specs. . .

Wonderful. A motorcycle with an oil dipstick on the filler cap, I assume. It's a simple design and it works. I hate the oil level sight glasses. I don't know how many of you are familiar with using copper anti-seize on motorcycle bolts, but it's the thing to use for me. Seems like if you put a bolt in at 6 ft lbs., a few thousand miles later, without some anti-seize it might take a lot more than that to get it out.

alright buddy, I'm very close (7400 miles) to change the oil on the bike, I cannot wait, and I bought magnetized drain bolts to catch any metal residuals 😆. As always thx again for your videos, always helpful and fun. :)

Thank you for always explaining the maintenance work carefully.

You make the best instructional content for my bike please keep it up

Great job Gus. I appreciate your videos, very informative.

Fantastic step by step with everything you need. This is worth a sub/like for sure. I appreciate this kind of content so I can do things on my own!

Really ,really enjoying your videos. Thank you My 21 was delivered today.

Another excellent how-to video. Thank you Gus!

Your videos are great look forward to them keep up the good work!

This video is by far the best 1100 dct oil change video on KZfaq. The video quality and attention to detail is outstanding. Question: Do you think it is necessary to replace the DCT filter O-ring after the 600-mile break-in oil change? Thanks!

Thanks once again Gustav for another Best in its Class How To Video 🙏

Gus Your tutorials are the best, by far!! All of the mods I have done have been successfully done by watching your step by step videos Question. Is your horn stock?

im due for my first 600mi service in a day or two. good timing

Thanks for taking the time with a video! I'm about to do my first 600 miles change. This looks straight-forward. I'm going to drop the oil before I do the filters. What bike stand are you using? Looks like it holds the bike nicely.

The red high heels the wig and the nose glasses that’s a classic that’s funny !!!

Nice and clean 👌. Thank you!

I appreciate the pro tip of taking off your red stiletto heels first; man I hate getting oil on those!!! 😂

Another Great Video

really Great job nice and clean 👍👍👍

Hi Gustavo. Thank you for your videos. They're always very detailed and relatively calming. Quick question. The o-ring that goes on the oil filter, is it the same o-ring that goes on the cover for the DCT filter housing? So essentially, we'd need to buy two of the same o-rings (P/N 91302-PA09-003), not just one? Thank you again and all the best!

Hey man thanks for the video! Just got my Rebel 2021 1100 standard yesterday and found your channel to be really helpful so far. Sadly my old bike stands won’t work on this. What are you using by chance I see they are thuhle or something like that. You have a model/part number or website by chance?

Love your high heels!

Mostus Excellentus! 👍 Took long enough to get through my break-in miles, but finally getting to her first oil change. Of course, there you are giving great instruction and detail! Thanks again, brother! Love your thoroughness. Would've never known or thought about the DCT filter or the 2 drain plugs. I should probably pickup a service manual... is the one from Helm the one you have?

Great job buddy

Why the women's red shoe? By the way, when I do basic maintenance on my 2022 cmx1100dct, your videos are the only ones I watch. Your explanations are clear and concise!

excellent work

The service manual (Engine Oil Section) says "Place the motorcycle on its side stand." when checking oil level. Isn't that why the dipstick is on an angle, so you can check it on the kickstand? I'm due to change it on my DCT in about 100 miles and will see if extra oil comes out of the (2) drain bolts when tilting the bike upright. I don't see anything in the manual about the bike position when changing the oil, just when checking it. I'd be curious as to what Honda service says. Maybe that's why there are the (2) drain bolts, so you can drain either on kickstand or when upright? Thanks for all the videos and safe riding!

Buen video. Gracias ✌️👌👍

great job like always! l like your assistant shoe's.

Hi there brother, may I know where did u buy your paddock stands, specifically the rear bike stand. Thank you. Ride safe.

Is that petroleum motor oil or synthetic? Can I use Mobil 1 synthetic? What's the purpose of the little bell?

Hy there, I have Questions, Is it important to bike stand strait for drain waste oil or is it ok to stand tilt on original stand ? Second Question is, after how many miles I need to channge again oil? What’s your recommendation, And thanks for make vedio, I learn it very well

This video is excellent! Would you happen to have the part number for the oil filter remover wrench kit? Also what oil catch pan do you use? Or thr size?

What’s up with the pink stiletto on the right side when replacing the oil filter? Even with the DCT I’m not sure those are the best for riding a motorcycle… :-)

Does anyone know which rear pit stand this gent is using, please? I’m from the U.K. and struggling to find one. Many thanks

That looks like an inspection sticker that’s done annually in certain states

Why do you have to guess how much engine oil is needed? It's usually in the manual, some engines even have stamped the oil capacity somewhere on the engine. It should say something like 1000/1200/2500ml vice versa. Just drain the used oil properly then dump the entire amount mentioned in the manual in the engine

Hi, What bike lift are you using to lift your bike up? Thank you.

Thank you for the video. It helps alot. Can you tell me what size these washers are? The ones that came in a kit does not match the one from the bike. Its slightly bigger.

If there is only one oil reservoir, why two filters then?

Great how to video, very thorough... what front stand is that your using?

Are we just not gonna address the pink high heel in the background?

I have a (Pittsburgh) torque wrench from Harbor Freight and I just don't trust it. I got my drain bolts really tight and it just wanted to keep going so I stopped. Has anyone else experienced this when trying to get bolts to spec?

nice video,, long time no see,, good luck friend.

Hi, could you please make a video on your exhaust and the wrapping you've done. Thanks.

May I ask you for more details about the back seat? Looks better than standard one. Where did you get it please?

Good information...

Another great video..., I have seen many of your videos and frankly I did not expect anything less. I also own a rebel 1100 and one small job I would like to know more about is removing the battery. Have you done this on your bike? If so is it as simple as it should be or is it more complicated? I am talking about a complete removal of the battery. Any info would be appreciated... Thanks

I see you are using wheel chocks to hold the bike upright. Not everyone will notice or have this. Besides the bike being level it also must be held verticle to get a correct reading.

Sir Is it true that once you know how to bike you know how to ride this cycle ,,im biginner ...and its AT not manual

What has a red high heel shoe have to do with an oil chance?

Where did you get the oil pan?

Hey Gus! I was wondering what stand you use for the bike? Is it on Amazon?

So you don't need to screw in the dipstick to check? I definitely would have if I didn't see this video

You're crazy to wait that long for an oil change.

What kind of stand do you have for the bike?

Hi, thx for the vid! What stands would u recommend for the Rebel?

Hi my friend. where do I order the oil change kit? i could not find for the 1100 dct

Do you have the Filter part #’s by chance? Both oil & DCT, and O rings? Thanks

Your videos are increíble!! thanks a lot for them. I'm sure I'll do the next oil change myself. one thing, would it be possible for you to share the service manual? I've searched for it and can't find it. thank you anyway! stay well.

What front stand is that? Did you also get that front harbor freight?

thx for the video 🙂its a very fun process, i will do it for sure. What's that little hanging bell for? i seen it on others rebel videos.

Hallo my friend. Iam considering to buy this bike but I have an objection regarding the top speed. I heard that top speed is 160km/hour. Is this true?

Does the dealer put in a new o ring and crush washer automatically or not? Love your videos.

What's with the high heel in the background when your doing the oil filter

What are you using to hold the bike up? What brand?

Did you do your first 600 mile service?

Wait oil change every 8000 miles? Then what us the 1000 mile service?

What stands are you using

What is the horrible sticker you all have over there on the top left shock?

Gus did you buy all the parts online?

Was waiting for this one? Which state are you in?

Oil filter torque … what is that in NM?

Do we know what's the pink high-heel shoe doing there? Is it essential for the oil change?? 😂

can i ask where did you get the rear seat from looks great for a pillion , have you a link please 🙏

have you maybe the pdf manual?

Hi Gustavo, where can I get the service manual for the 2022 1100 dct

Do we have to reset the oil setting on the screen and do you need to empty the whole can of oil 4 l

Hi buddy. Quick question. How do you reset the maintenance for the oil on the dashboard?

Any update on the Corbin and Mustang seats for the 1100 ?

Hi, I ordered a DTC version without ever seeing it:) Looks like you live in the same area (I recognize it in your videos). Is there any chance I can see your bike? I will buy coffee:)

👍💯

Can you forward the listing of all the parts I need for future oil change kit….

Part number list?

Can you help me transport scooter engine from USA to Iraq
