What's up with that suspension? You probably got asked a million times I'm sure.

I think this is the video where you use an air gun to get a bolt or something out from under your starter. Tonight I dropped the pilot jet under there and used that trick. Had to keep puffing until it landed on top of the "shelf" between the cylinder and the starter well. Thanks 😆

Which side does the cam tension go up?

Thanks for the tutorial, I am going to attempt tomorrow

Would using a Dremel with some tip maybe make the gasket removal easier?

Thanks Sam. I see you had the Clymer manual there; it talks about a "tool" one has to make from thin metal; you didn't mention or use that at all?

You should always take the beach down that section, faster, smooth and way more fun

so far away of a view, too bad not closer or more zooming maybe. cool to see, hard to see. Can see the era of skiing tricks lol seems so old

Darn that infamous cam chain tensioner

🤘🏻🏍Dr650SE💪🤜🦆💨🤢🤮....THANKS DOOD FOR THE VID

great video, thanks. Of the videos i watched, yours is the only one showing the release of the plunger after it's installed.

Suzuki must have some secret 'glue' they use on gaskets it is like indestructible and can repel about everything known to man.

I look forward to the 2030 DR650 when they finally fix this issue

Where did you buy the headlight from ? Looks mean

I have that same problem now. I just ordered the gasket. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve already commented on this video a while back, but I had my gasket literally break in half and oil started spraying out like crazy. Just wanted to say thanks for sharing your trick for installing the tensioner with ease. It worked like a charm when I replaced my gasket just now.

Do we have to release it ? I thought it will automatically adjust

Hi Have you got a bigger aftermarket oil cooler fitted?

Thanks for filming this Sam. I have to do this on the street and your video has helped me visualize the steps better and surely save time. Cheers.

Information I'm getting is that it's important to be at TDC and TDC in compression stroke. What's your thoughts?

Hi, very helpful video. Why did you change yours? Was it an oil leak or a rattling/tapping sound coming from the engine? I just pulled mine off and I was wondering is there a way to see that the tensioner is broken? Mine looks totally fine but I'm guessing it's an internal part that has given up. Thanks.

Very helpful and liked your “pace of progress” suggestions. I started early and substituted coffee for beer and was done in a half day, including some degreaser cleanup time while the exhaust was off. An impact driver with hex head (6mm) to remove my aftermarket (Staintune) exhaust was an important first step. An intermittent extra set of hands to help twist the exhaust around a bit was useful too. As noted nicely in this vid, you need a very narrow flat blade screwdriver to turn the CCT to lock and then to release. I ground down a cheap old one I had on bench grinder make it slimmer to fit. No need to worry about TDC if you do not move the wheel (and thus the engine piston) while the bike is opened up. I used a small amount of Grey permatex on the engine side and blue thread locker on all the bolts (expect for oil cooler line special bolts as they have reusable copper crush washers). Appreciate the torque setting mention as I did not have the service manual. Bought a $35 torque wrench which will someday get used again. Again, thanks for this making and sharing this vid - gave all the key steps and thus the confidence to do the job right. Keep rolling...

i completed these steps on my dr and after clutch was not engaging. not sure why

Thanks for the video and the advise. I have to tackle this in the next week or so. Very helpful.

What kind of headlight setup are you running? Is it better than stock? Looks like a cool robot or something.

Fantastic video bud .. thanks

Can you tell me where the location is at 2:20?

Hey man, thanks for making this video! My ‘03 DR650 is now leaking oil worse than my old Triumph! Was suspecting the cam tensioner cover gasket and I reckon your video confirms it. In doing research, as I don’t possess a workshop manual for the bike, I saw a comment that someone put there motor at top dead centre before removing the tensioner. I can’t see any reason as to why this would be necessary? And you didn’t mention it. Does the manual say to?

That's the same design as yamaha, best design, the Ktm sucks, they break all the time. When you gonna replace the timing chain..

Mine doing the same

How do I find the trailhead to this place?

Great video! I plan on doing this route this coming July. Can you tell me if camping or hotels were hard to find? Also are bears a concern on this trip/ Thanks

"Girl in the back is hot!" Excellent vid!

Great video. Brings back memories from a few years ago when I rode it. Thanks!

Now that looks like FUN!

One of my favorite routes. Well done.

Nice! My dad did the same thing on his GS 1200 with 2 friends. Said it was awesome and it looks like you guys had an awesome time!

This was related to altitude? I had a similar close call flying at high altitude in CO...7,000' + They stall pretty easily at the altitude

Seems like a VRS crash

Oh it went down hard. , was it hard to find?

what part of Kichina peak is this?

awesome! thanks for posting this

p.s. my wife wants to kick you in the shins.

@sdwwcwds Thanks for the comments. If you knew what you were talking about, I would take you seriously. A few things. I use a tripod. I have a consumer camera. I shot this for fun. I am NOT a professional. Have you ever shot video in the snow? And you have no tact. If can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all. I wasn't looking for your input.
