After each ride if you ride in dusty conditions. Every couple of weeks on normal conditions. Change the air filter once a year.



You don't need to change jets as any part of routine maintenance. You only change the jets if you make engine modifications like aftermarket exhaust or internal engine modifications.How often should i change the air filter, oil, and jets on a wr450f?Adam, if you buy one, invest in a manual. So many people ask technical questions about their bikes that can be found in a manual.



It will provide you with all the relevent details ie; servicing intervals, fault finding etc!

Like the other answers, if you are punishing it on the dirt. Change your clean your air filter.

Oil wise, I wouldn't do it after every. I would say every 500kms if you have ridden it hard and your oil has darkened.

This is an indication of your oil becoming dirty, but by no means bad. Change your filter as well!How often should i change the air filter, oil, and jets on a wr450f?You should change your oil after every ride right after you wash the bike and get ready to put it away if you want it to last. You need to clean your air filter after every ride also. It doesnt matter how tall you are it is if you can handle the power. Why not buy a YZF 450 or a CRF 450 they are the best bikes around and give the least amount of problems and lastHow often should i change the air filter, oil, and jets on a wr450f?In dusty conditions, you should clean the air filter after each ride. Oil and oil filter every three months or if it smells burnt. Carburetor jets should not be a problem if you store the bike properly.



I'm assuming you have no experience from the question. A 450 is a whole lot of bike for a beginner. I would shop in the 200-250cc range. Make sure you can reach the ground while sitting in the saddle.



Save yourself frustration by buying a shop manual.
