P1000 What to service for the winter

[Anthony277]

I was looking for advice on servicing my Honda 1000. I plan on trying to change oil and filters every winter like I do on every other piece of equipment. I was curious if any one could share a detailed list on what all they do to service there machine. I have already had my initial first service done. Wasn’t sure how many spots should get greased or get attention..... I have watched several videos on changing the oil and clutch oil...... anything else you would change or grease after a year of riding in trails.

Hi,
Welcome to the club.

• Oil
• Filters both Engine & DCT.. Honda says every 1200 miles.
• Check Air filter.
• Check coolant, sub trans oil, diff oil.
  That's about all for common services.

every second year change.

• Coolant
• Sub trans oil
• Differential oil

Things to check and grease

• Ball joints - buy a needle for your grease gun and put some in, these are often overlooked.
• Grease wheel bearings - There is a bearing greaser
• Check a-arm bolts and bushings. Put a wrench on the a-arm main frame bolts and check tight.
• Brakes.
• Tie rods and tie rod ends for loose. Grease these too with the needle.

If sitting for a long time I would do the following.

• Full tank of gas and add stabilizer.
• Block intake tube to keep rodents out. (don't forget to unblock it)
• Buy some rodent repellent and spray around.

What else?

Just follow the maintenance schedule.. only other thing I would add to Hondasxs’s list is your cable adjustments.

Is that E-town Ky?

With the needle grease tip what are you greasing in the stock ball joints? Under the rubber cover?
