You speed deamon you!
Just tickling the throttle turns you into a monster, it’s wonderful 😇
We have fuds up here too that are sh1t scared to overtake a cyclist on roads like these lol
OEM bearings are open ended why Suzuki ??, mine failed 6,000 miles, New sealed bearing are 80% cheaper and have lasted 18,000 so far.
Sounds like you had a dodgy set or the outer seals failed prematurely, oem should last longer than that🤔. On the plus side the new sealed bearings are holding up well, what make are they?
Is it Rykas?
Nope . . .
The camera team turned up to get a look at your bike 🏍 😂

@@BatFastard01- I believe so bud, yes👍
The cafe featured in this video I believe is called Whiteways Cafe in Bury Hill. The one people are referring to in Boxhill near Dorking is Rykas as far as I know.
Yep, it’s Whiteways cafe at Bury Hill. It’s not a bad little stop if you like bikers🤢.
get yourself to boxhill sometime soon. its been revamped and the food and drinks are spot on. always a couple of busas there as well as all sorts of bikes
I may well do that, its been a while since I’ve visited. Thanks for the heads up on the re-vamp 👌

Well done Mate 😎
At least I achieved peace of mind by changing good bearings for new bearings 😂🤣

Had my K8 since 2008, makes no difference but mine does have both cut outs on the axle bolt ,best colour as well Blaze orange/Black 👍👍

@@bikerantics5001cheers mate much appreciated
Makes no difference which way the axle is facing
I think you’re right👌
Easier to undo the nut on the disc side without hitting the muffler. Spanner goes down. That's about it.
Sound theory, could be just that🤷♂️, thanks👍
For motorcycles with a chain drive on the left-hand side, positioning the spindle nut on the right reduces the chance of the nut loosening due to the forces generated by chain tension. The rotational force of the rear wheel under acceleration can cause a left-hand spindle nut to potentially loosen.
I don’t think that’s true🤷♂️. If the rotational force is causing an effect wouldn’t it be due to axle movement🤔. If you have axle movement your bearings would need to be seized to the axle for it to rotate. If this were the case having the nut sprocket side would tighten the nut, wouldn’t it🤔🤷♂️
@@bikerantics5001 I'll try and explain simpler. On most motorcycles, the chain drive is located on the left side of the bike. The chain transmits power from the engine's front sprocket to the rear sprocket, causing the rear wheel to rotate. This power transmission creates a set of forces: Chain Tension and Torque: When the motorcycle accelerates, the engine applies torque to the front sprocket, which is transferred via the chain to the rear sprocket. This torque creates a pulling force (tension) on the top part of the chain as it pulls the rear wheel forward, causing it to rotate. Resulting Rotational Forces: As the rear wheel rotates under the influence of this torque, a reaction force is generated in the opposite direction of the wheel's rotation. This is due to the principle of equal and opposite reactions as described by Newton's Third Law. If the spindle nut were placed on the left side (same side as the chain drive), the rotational forces and the tension in the chain could potentially cause the nut to loosen over time. Here's why: Rotational Direction: The rear wheel rotates clockwise when viewed from the right side of the motorcycle (assuming forward motion). This clockwise rotation means that if the spindle nut is on the left side, the rotational force could apply a counterclockwise (loosening) force on the nut due to the direct interaction between the forces of rotation and the threading direction of most nuts (which are usually right-hand threaded). Chain Tension Influence: Chain tension also plays a role. As the chain pulls on the rear sprocket during acceleration, it can induce a slight twisting force on the axle. This twist can exert additional loosening pressure on the spindle nut if it is on the left side, aligning with the direction that would loosen a standard right-hand thread nut. By fitting the spindle nut on the right-hand side of the motorcycle (opposite the chain drive), the rotational forces act in a way that helps secure the nut rather than loosen it: Securing Effect: The rear wheel's clockwise rotation (when viewed from the right) would exert a clockwise force on a right-side nut. Since most spindle nuts use right-hand threads (tightening clockwise), this force works in favor of keeping the nut tight. Mitigating Loosening Forces: With the nut on the right, the potential loosening forces generated by chain tension and rotational dynamics are significantly reduced. The force applied to the nut now acts in the same direction as tightening, thus enhancing the nut's security. I hope this has cleared it up for ya..
@@kevinansell9341 the forces you’re describing would need to be transferred by the axle to the nut, for this to happen there would need to be something wrong with your bearings🙄
@@bikerantics5001 You either didn't read my last or didn't understand Torque and resulting counter rotational forces generated, I think your hung up on Wheel Bearings seizing before counter rotational forces can act on the Nut..Nope nowt to do with seized bearings, I've dumbed it down as best I can in the above, Gogle Newtons 3rd Law.
Okay, lets try one more time🙄. You’re not actually describing how the rotational force of the wheel transfer to the nut🤷♂️. I could state, quite rightly, that the moon effects the tides but without details of how the process works it’s a fairly empty statement. The same as all your texts, which read more like diatribes🤔, there’s a lot of words but none describe how the rotational forces directly transfer to the nut🤷♂️. Please don’t try using Newtons third Law again 🥱. In this application the law is referencing the tyres force on the ground and the ground exerting an equal and opposite force back at the tyre. Please do your research before answering and give a full explanation not just empty paragraphs 🥱🫡.
If they is a locking pin then the rear axle matters, but most cases nah doesn't matter. I fitted a aftermarket exhaust which made getting a torque wrench to the nut difficult disc side, so I swapped mine over, no problem. Regarding the chain I always do mine on the paddock stand for 2 reasons. I clean it while I am adjusting it and I've noticed I'm rubbish at getting the spec right on the side stand. I much prefer going straight down rather than at an angle. Then again I'm the kinda guy who will happily just change a wheel bearing that has gone rather than changing the set as per the recommendation.
Yeah I’ve had no problems having my nuts in the wrong place🙃 I’ve never tried tensioning the chain while the bikes on its side stand, just struck me as making the job unnecessarily awkward🤷♂️ I dunno whether that’s bravery or stupidity with the bearings, but if it works I can’t knock it🫡
@@bikerantics5001 in fairness I got that from an old mechanic down my end, who when I had my learning bike checked them and replaced just one on the front wheel. Miss that dude I started doing my own maintenance when he died.
@@BLG80 Same reason I do my own maintenance, you certainly don’t get that sort of customer service these days🤷♂️ The time, effort and money to take your bike to a mechanic, lose it for a day maybe two, to do basic maintenance just isn’t worth it. I’d much rather fit it in to my own schedule 👌
Any ideas ,
Got exactly same bike today riding out. Battery's good but ignition will not come on
@@agaryord8301 when you say the ignition won’t come on do you mean you’ve got no electrics at all🤷♂️ nothing is lighting up🤷♂️
@bikerantics5001 nothing at all the clock is on the display but nothing wondered where fusebox is
@@agaryord8301 you’re positive the battery is okay? Do the lights come on? Indicators work? Any clicking anywhere? Does the fuel pump prime? Does the clock dim when you turn the key in the ignition?
@@agaryord8301 I believe the fuse box is under the left hand plastic, between the tank and the fairing.
@bikerantics5001 nothing comes on tried both keys. I was riding lights all display went off . Pulled to stop then nothing at all .
I think the rear axle bolt is nut on disc side on Gen2 busa so you can slide the rear caliper out of it's locating slot to aid removal of rear wheel but it's a bloody pain in the arse anyway! I'm always catching my wheel with the caliper. I use an Abba stand to adjust my chain and no problems.
🤣 it’s definitely a pain in the arse but worth it when you ride it🙃
Nurse nurse is out of bed again, and this time, he's trying to read 📚 books 🤦♂️🤭🤣
Only bits not the whole book🤷♂️. My single brain cell would go into overload with all that knowledge 😂🤣
On my 600 SRAD the lock nut is chain side, no probs so far 🤘
@@mickusable me neither 🫡
wheel nut is normally on disk side on Suzuki's but it don't matter only time it would cause an issue is depending on your exhaust you might not get the axle out without removing the endcans and chain tension dont matter where/how you do it so long as you end up with the 20-30mm
@@heatz711 do you reckon putting the axle the other way could stop the mysterious (🤣) chain tightening scenario when you tighten the axle nut🤔
@@bikerantics5001 no that's due to swingarm flex lots of bikes do that just gota account for it
@heatz711 I thought it was down to the axle having different diameters and when you tighten the axle nut it pulls the threaded portion through and when the unthreaded thicker part of the axle is pulled through it tightens the chain😮💨🤷♂️
@@bikerantics5001 it could be but ive always put it down to the flex worth swooping it over just to check it out
I don’t think your swingarm should flex when adjusting the chain. I don’t think it should flex or your cornering stability would be compromised, especially at higher speeds🤷♂️

The axle, if it's not broken, don't fix. second if you lift the bike up one end you will put unforseen pressure on the chain if you lift it in the middle of the bike you are putting equal pressure through out the bike 🏍 so in your case I would definitely try on the side stand 👍
@@blackdotkiller1 but the bible says to put my bike on a paddock stand🫡. If you lift the bike from the swingarm it takes all the weight off the suspension giving a false reading of slackness . . . doesn’t it🤔. And bollocks to doing it on the side stand, especially with my axle going the wrong way😂🤪
You just answered your own question. You've taken the suspension out of the equation, tightened up the chain, and then you take it off the paddock stand now. The suspension is put back into the equation when the bike is back on the floor the chain is under more tension 🤦♂️
@@blackdotkiller1 but it’s the same weight and suspension movement whether it’s on the floor or paddock stand🤷♂️. All of the weight is still supported by the swingarm pin/ bolt and the suspension linkage in both scenarios. So weird the bible changes method depending on bike year🙃. If you lift it by the swingarm pivot then the suspension will sag, probably causing a difference in tension, wouldn’t it🤔
The whole weight of the bike is being lifted at one spot compressing the suspension however small it is then you fit the chain place the bike back on the floor now the spot that was taking the whole weight of the bike is no longer compressing so it tries to go back to its original place but can't because you have tightened your chain so if you drive it over a big pot hole your suspension will stop at the point at which you have tightened your chain and at that point your chain will stretch because the suspension can't go any further
@@blackdotkiller1 yep, but the compression shouldn’t be any different whether the bike is supported through the wheel axle or a paddock stand. The weight above the swingarm pivot point doesn’t change. The distance between the swingarm and the subframe hasn’t changed so the effect on the suspension is the same. I suppose in the end so long as the tension/ slack is where it needs to be the science really doesn’t matter🫡🤣

Absolutely 👌

@seahawkgreenblue6085 I think crash bars would ruin the beautiful looks of the Busa, but I totally understand you wanting full protection.
