WOW! That's a serious strip down. Nice work.
Thanks.
Great post, massive Job to change clutch, my R1150R has done 40k miles and when the time comes it will be my worst nightmare, well done sir
Very interesting..thank you
Watch "Old Yeller" the movie ,
that might be an appropriate name!?
Love your channel, you working on bikes
and your adventures with HH..
Looking forward to you guys adventuring to Canada!
Thanks. Hopefully one day we can make it over to Canada. That would be awesome.
Bumble Bee is on her way to my zone… great moves
wooow, its a good thing your checking the transmission & clutch, better to check
Big yellaw....b ella.... Bella that's my name choice for your motorbike. Hope it goes back together OK 👍
Another great video, how about Daisy or Buttercup as a name 😀
Always fix the main stand against the front tire with a strap. Many GSs felt off lift when people worked on gear boxes etc.
A beer with your mate and wrenching on your bike. The recipe for a good evening in the garage
Oh yes!
Good work! Having done this on mine, definitely look at the slave cylinder while doing this job as they often leak and could contaminate the new clutch. Also the release bearing is the size of a polo mint and will be shot if original. As you left it in when dropping the box double check the pushrod is not bent before reinstalling. You can get a clutch plate from motorworks with an oversized centre with a bit more meat on it to rule out the gearbox splines stripping out in the future if you want. Good luck!
Thanks, I have not seen a release bearing. I will look in to that.
It’s located within the slave cylinder where the pushrod enters. It allows the pushrod to spin with the engine when you engage the clutch. When it fails it gets noisy, the seal fails and allows hydraulic fluid to run along the pushrod to the clutch. Never idle in gear at traffic lights for long on these bikes. Shift to neutral asap to extend its life
A friend of mine calls her car "Marge" because it's the color of margarine..
❤best nominated name in the comments!!
Honestly if you want to know what you have bought you got to take it apart
The flying banana 😊
Name it,the screaming yellow express!
You can twist’n push the snorkels of the throttle bodies inside the airfilter box to get them out of the way.
Bedankt
Thank you very much, really appreciated!

Custard cream/ banana milkshake wonderbike bmw /buttercup
How about calling her “Old Mustard” great vids love the progress it’s what I used to do rebuild old bikes I’m feeling like getting my hands dirty again 😂good luck 👍
Thanks. Get those spanners out again 👍
Great work…..really loving these videos. How about “General Custard”?
The Berlin Banana? - Great video showing some real progress (didn't see Lord HH doing much though, nothing changes 🤣😂)
Good name. To be fair he can’t really be trusted with a spanner 😆
Also check the slave cylinder if your not replacing it, when they leak the fluid goes down the shaft that the clutch rod goes through and then ends up in the bell housing.
Thanks. I will look in to it.
We’ve got a yellow pan (rs Mexico) it’s called bumble! Another option could be pooh, as in Winnie the Pooh although that gs has been a bit of a s#it !
Got to be " Sarah " !!
Yellow Peril? 🤣👍
How about Hans (solo) !! ? ... being a German bike like ?!! ✨️
That’s a good one.
Thanks A beer on me From Givi Eric .
Thank you very much, really appreciated. I will enjoy that beer 🍻

Awesome, glad your happy with them. Thanks for your support it’s really appreciated.
Rebel Yell
3:00 that was me hahaha. Still don't know who he is lol. I'll check his channel after this 😅
Well worth a look. We have done some awesome adventures in the past.
Hallo, how do you like the nama Robin? Robin was the Side Kick from Batman. Maybe an idea. Have a nice evening.
Betty the beamer 😅
Sorry I wierded you out mate 🇦🇺👍🏻🤣
May I suggest you call her Phoenix (or did you put that in my head with your thumbnail)
Thank vey much for your support mate, it was really kind of you and absolutely blew me away. I really appreciate it. Legend.
Name for your bike "Scrap Iron"
😂
As your destination “Sahara”
Take a spare Hall sensor with you as a backup. What bench are you using?. Am on the lookout for a new one that doesn't wobble everytime i do a bolt up
Not sure of the make to be honest it was a second hand one off market place. I think the gs it the limit of what it will take.
Great video lots of work 👍🏻( name of the bike ,wanting, as in wanting for nothing )
The money pit or "mistake"
Any update on the build, have you been able to find the time?
Build is still coming along buddy. Just about to start editing the next video. Hopefully I’ll have something out towards the end of the week.
@SidekickSolo nice one , take your time and get it right.
Tweety Pie? 🤣👍
That’s a good one!!
Name ...Baron von custard.
great progress, will be worth the effort
Thanks.
How about Hannah banana 🍌 😂😂😂
Bloody hell, it’s a major breakdown getting that clutch out, not something you can achieve at the side of the road
I find you need another garage to keep all the parts while you’re doing jobs like this 😂
Luckily I have a large van parked on the drive I can put all of those parts in 😂
Ahh that’s your secret, I did wonder 😂😂
I also have no idea who the other guy is 🤷
Look up Helmet Head. If you flick through some of his videos you will find me in those too. We have been on some good adventures.
Me neither but he looks like trouble!
