You can use the time code chapters bellow to skip to the sections that you are interested in if you don’t want to watch the entire video. Keep an eye out for Karl as he helps me out a lot in this one.

I do a full service on the Suzuki DR650 dual sport/ adventure motorcycle including the DR650 oil and oil filter, clean the DR650 air filter, check the DR650 chain for adjustment and wear, oil the DR650 drive chain, Load test the DR650’s battery and check the DR650 tire pressure. Karl relaxes and patiently waits for the work to be completed.

We also talk a little about motorcycle oils synthetic vs conventional oil and my thoughts on what I run which is Motul 7100 full synthetic motorcycle oil.
