Shop parts for a 2024 Yamaha TTR110 Dirt Bike.
This comprehensive MotoSport.com guide walks you through changing the oil on your 2024 Yamaha TTR110. This dirt bike is known for its simplicity and reliability, and Yamaha’s design hasn’t made substantial changes to the TTR110 engine and oiling system in years, so these directions apply to most recent models. Ensuring your TTR110 has fresh oil is essential for engine longevity and peak performance.
Tools & Supplies Needed
- 12mm socket or wrench
- Ratchet (if using sockets)
- Oil drain pan
- Funnel (clean, small)
- New engine oil: Yamalube 10W-40, or other high-quality 10W-40 motorcycle oil
- Measuring cup (optional) (for exact oil fill)
- Shop rags
- Nitrile gloves (recommended)
- Used oil disposal container
Preparation
- Start the TTR110 and warm the engine for 5-10 minutes. This helps the oil flow out more easily, carrying impurities with it.
- Turn off the engine and place the bike securely on a level surface, using a stand if you have one.
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Remove the Oil Filler Cap/Dipstick
- Locate the oil filler cap/dipstick on the right side of the engine, above the clutch cover.
- Unscrew and set aside; this allows air in so the oil drains smoothly.
-
Position the Oil Drain Pan
- Slide your drain pan underneath the TTR110, lining it up with the oil drain bolt which is located underneath the engine.
-
Remove the Drain Bolt
- Use your 12mm wrench or socket to loosen and completely remove the drain bolt.
- Let the oil fully drain. This may take several minutes as warm oil drains more thoroughly.
- Make sure you do not lose the crush washer; if it’s in bad shape (cracked or significantly deformed), replace it.
-
Inspect the Oil
- Look for metallic flakes or an abnormal color/smell in the used oil – this could be a sign of engine wear.
-
Reinstall the Drain Bolt
- After the oil has stopped dripping, wipe the area clean and thread in the drain bolt by hand to avoid cross-threading.
- Use your wrench to snug the bolt firmly; don’t over-tighten (spec: typically about 18 ft-lb, but check your manual).
-
Add New Oil
- Using a funnel, pour in 28 fluid ounces (which is 0.88 quart / ~830 mL) of fresh 10W-40 oil .
- If you’re using a quart bottle, mark the bottle so you leave about 4 fl oz remaining after filling .
- Let the oil settle for a minute.
-
Check the Oil Level
- Hold the bike upright (not on the side stand) and insert the dipstick fully, but don’t screw it in.
- Remove and read the level. It should be between the low and high marks.
-
If low, add oil in small amounts.
If too high, loosen
but don’t remove the drain bolt to let a little oil out .
-
Start and Idle the Engine
- Let the bike idle for a minute, then shut it off and wait a couple more minutes for the oil to settle.
- Re-check the oil level and adjust as necessary.
-
Final Steps
- Reinstall the dipstick/oil cap and wipe up any spills.
- Run your engine for a few minutes and double-check your work for any leaks at the drain plug.
- Dispose of the used oil responsibly—take it to a proper recycling center or your local Yamaha dealer .
- Clean your tools and work area; Yamaha recommends always putting tools back in order after each job .
Important Model-Specific Notes for 2024 Yamaha TTR110
- The TTR110 does not use an oil filter; this makes oil changes easier and quicker than bikes that require a filter replacement. Only drain and refill oil.
- Oil capacity: 28 fl oz. Overfilling can cause oil to be forced into the airbox and result in poor performance or leaks. Check and double-check your oil level.
- Always check and adjust oil level after idling the engine for a minute and letting oil settle.
- Don’t use automotive oil or oil with “energy conserving” labels, as these may damage the clutch.
When to Change Oil
- For new bikes, Yamaha recommends the first oil change at 10 hours or one month, whichever comes first.
- After break-in, change the oil every 6 months or 30 operating hours (whichever comes first), or more frequently for hard riding.
Quick Tips
- Warming up the oil ensures a more thorough drain and helps catch metal contaminants before they settle.
- Never reuse old oil. Always use motorcycle-specific oil for the TTR110.
- Keep tools organized and clean after servicing your bike.
Now your 2024 Yamaha TTR110 is ready to ride with fresh oil. Regular maintenance ensures your dirt bike keeps running strong and maximizes your investment in the Yamaha brand.
