How do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?

i bought this bike and it had no type of manual for it so if someone could tell me what type of oil and oil filter and anything else that might be good to do while changing the oil.How do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?I wasn't going to answere this since one the previos poster nailed it but then I saw one say that you can use regular car oil and that is wrong. On a Harley maybe because they have seperate oil for the transmition and the engine but on your bike the oil is used for both so you have to use oil that works for both ie motorcycle oil. This time of year go with 10w30 or 10w40 if you live in a warmer climate. The oil change is the same as a car, remove the plug, drain the oil, change the filter(which is a bit of a pain to remove given the limited access), put the plug back in and add oil. Check the sight glass window with the bike held stright upright not on the sidestand to tell when you have enough oil in it. If you get your oil and filter from a dealership they will be able to tell you exactly how much oil you will need. Get a K%26amp;N oil filter because when it comes time to change your oil next time they have a nut on the end of the filter which makes it much easier to remove and everyone I have talked to says they make better filters too and when you think about the rpms we run these things at getting good oil and filters seems like a good idea. Also if you go with synthetic oil you can change it less since the oil lasts longer once again check with the dealer and see what they say but I always use it and have never had a problem with 5000 mile change increments.

Oil only gets added to the gas on 2 stroke engines and yours is a 4 stoke so don't listen to that one either.How do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?take it somewhere if you are asking this explaining itwon't help youHow do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?Start here

LHow do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?Under no circumstances do you ever add oil to the fuel on this model bike. 10W 30 or 15 W40 is what is commonly used on motorcycles. Make sure you use 4 stroke motorcycleoil, not 2 stroke or car oil. They are very different! Your best bet is to go to a Motorcycle Dealer or motorcycle parts store for your oil and filter. They can help you find the right filter. It will cost more than car oil and filters but thats the way things are.

Why do people that know nothing about the subject chime in with answers that are completely wrong? Oil added to the gas is only for 2 stroke bikes like dirt bikes.How do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?So I don't have to re-type, in the search box, search for %26quot;How do I do an oil change on a yzf 600r?%26quot;

The only difference is, the oil drain bolt is on the very bottom of the engine.

The oil level sight glass is below the oil fill cap.

Don't pay attention to the %26quot;only use motorcycle oil%26quot; statement.

After doing research, I found out automotive oil is no different than motorcycle oil.

Just use quality, brand name 4 stroke motor oil.

10w40 in cold weather %26amp; 20w50 in warm weather.How do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?I use the regular ol' 10w-40 full synthetic. Works like a beaut and always has. Oil is oil. Buying bike oil is just paying more for the word %26quot;bike%26quot;. 10w-40 is never stocked as fully as the more popular weights, but I've always been able to find it at any gas station, auto parts store, etc.



DEFINITELY make sure the bike is vertical when you check the oil level. If you don't have a center stand, prop it against a wall (with a blanket in between if you baby it) or get a friend to hold it straight while you check the window. Too much oil can cause as much damage as not enough.How do i change the oil on a 2005 kawasaki ninja zx-6r 636?the oil should be added to the fuel
