Sometimes you can take the front wheel off and header and let it rest on the oil pan then raise the bike up off the motor and lower the bike back down over it when putting it back in.

The front sprocket nut coming loose was a common problem for these bikes. I found this out when mine was missing as well. They apparently came out with some sort of recall for it at some point.

@@TomsTinkeringandAdventures Way late, but mine undid itself during a ride, and consequently the front sprocket slipped off it's fitting and onto the threads. It was a weird sensation being in gear, revving the mess outtta the bike, and it not going anywhere. I cringe thinking about it now, but the revving spun the shaft with the newly loose sprocket sitting on the threads.. wore them down dangerously flat.. Never did find the nut. And I nearly cried tears of joy when the new nut was still able to screw unto the funky threads lol.

I believe you should change the oil and filter again. And you need to start it and let it idle until the fan turns on . Take it for a ride with couple of revs and problem us solved .

Hey first off great video and thanks for the information. I wanted to see if you were able to locate the coolant temperature sensor. I was able to identify where the thermostat is based on your other video, so thanks for that!

Well we no longer have this bike so I can’t look at it. A lot of times the sensor threads into the radiator or near the thermostat housing. Should be easy to notice, with a small wire harness of 1-2 wires.

You should do time lapse montage into your video’s seeing you working on it. Maybe with some music? Would make your video’s more fun to watch. Sometimes the talking is a bit too slow and too long. I really like this R6 project!!
