DIY: All The Things!

Jiggles · September 12th, 2012, 10:59 PM

Alright so when I went through the process of installing my new airfilter jet kit and exhaust I documented everything with video. I could possibly make video DIY's of everything I did and everything that led up to the things I did (i.e. Let's get nekkid!) Question is, does my DIY video suck or should I do more of them.

Here is one for an oil change, it ended up being much longer than I had intended.

Might want to clarify that it's washer then spring then filter on the oil filter bolt. Everything else looked good, well done.

Jiggles · September 12th, 2012, 11:49 PM

I wasn't sure so I did spring washer filter

Jiggles · September 12th, 2012, 11:54 PM

Added an annotation for my mistake

Trailerboy531 · September 12th, 2012, 11:55 PM

Oh **** I typed wrong. It is spring then washer then filter. But again, You might just want to put an annotation writing the order out because I dont think you spoke all 3 words.

Jiggles · September 12th, 2012, 11:57 PM

well balls, I didn't know the order but I got it right

Jiggles · September 13th, 2012, 12:00 AM

As I got more tired throughout the day in my other footage I ended up talking a lot less, I could always do a voice over or just put worded notes in, possibly even steps straight from the other DIYs on the site. My intent for DIY videos would be in addition to the write ups

cuong-nutz · September 13th, 2012, 12:05 AM

All good man! You have way too much time on your hands you whore!

Jiggles · September 13th, 2012, 12:12 AM

Lol, well I don't want to waste my useless time editing videos if people won't find them useful

Fappy · September 13th, 2012, 08:36 AM

Great video man -- my only suggestion would be to add something like "2008+ Ninja 250" or "How to change your oil on..." to the title, so that people searching for similar vids can find it by the title. They'll probably skip over it if they don't see that.

Unless this is just for the forum here, in which case... Doesn't matter

broilmebk · September 13th, 2012, 08:54 AM

Nice video. F the birds!
Oh and yea, when I'm looking for youtube videos I usually search for 08+ ninja 250 in the title, or check to see its a newgen in the video still

Aggrotech · September 13th, 2012, 09:09 AM

It's mostly for ninjette peeps, idgaf about anybody else

Jiggles · September 13th, 2012, 08:04 PM

So again question, when I did the fairings I talked about what to do but when I did the airbox, just from being tired I didn't really talk at all. So should I go record a voice over of whats going on in the vids or should I just type everything on screen like the few parts I did in the oil change vid?

Trailerboy531 · September 13th, 2012, 08:17 PM

Voice over; we want to hear your beautiful voice

I want Sandstorm looped in the background underneath.

Jiggles · September 13th, 2012, 11:24 PM

I don't reuse songs (except that one time)

rawbert625 · September 14th, 2012, 09:45 PM

this is a pretty good DIY. Would be great if all the DIY that no longer have pictures/videos would be re-made. Like cleaning carb's, chain adjustment, and so on.

keep up the good work!

Jiggles · September 14th, 2012, 10:56 PM

Working on it!

mariorivera830 · October 9th, 2012, 02:58 PM
