- My Honda Navi has been neglected ever since its exhaust stud broke almost 5 weeks ago, but it's finally time to fix it AND throw on a new mod I've had sitting around! I wish I could say it all went smoothly, but uhh...well you'll see! haha

Welcome to the "mechanic's nightmare"!😂🤣 A broken bolt/stud can turn a 1 hour job into a 3 day nightmare. I am so proud of you, your skills are getting so much better.👍😁
Thanks Tim!! That’s the only upside to stuff breaking- you get to learn how to fix it! 🙌🏻
Glad the Navi is back on the road!
The solution for your disappearing wrench problem is go to an estate sale or fair grounds and buy a bunch of used 11mm wrenches. I have like seven 13 mm wrenches. I have a nice selection of 10 mm wrenches also from ratcheting to long. It's nice to have extras and doubles.
That stud coming out is a miracle! So close to needing to drill out the block and install a helicoil.
Right?! I had already set it in my mind that if it got to that point I was just launching this thing off a cliff 😂
@LifeOfBurch I luckily haven't had that happen with mine. But, personally, I'd keep an eye on the bearings on the back half of the cvt(behind where the clutch sits). At ~7k miles on my Navi, I had a bearing grenade itself in there. Definitely not fun to deal with. I have my fingers crossed that everything stays reliable
I would of lost my shit to be honest...glad he managed it without being upset.
@@NickPCage if I’m being honest, that’s why no footage was included of me actually removing the stud. I lost my absolute shit, then decided I couldn’t focus on filming anymore, then lost my shit some more 😂😂😂
@@LifeOfBurch So you are human lol, I was thinking about my life choices after seeing that video. stuff like that make me go mental.
We have the same amount of subs, tattoos, navi, grom, etc... keep up the great content; it's seriously very enjoyable.
Great video Burch !!! 🤙🏽
Thanks Marvin!! 😬🤘🏻
love the look of kemimoto tail tidy. Installed it on my wife's navi. We had the exact same stud weld break on us .Luckily some Needle nose vice grips held it to tighten it
Dang that’s crazy that yours broke in the same spot! I’d say it’s definitely worth it for the looks though 🤘🏻
I don’t own a navi but I watch all your content, I’m hoping to start doing videos like yours soon especially because it all seems so fun to film
Thanks for watching bro! I definitely think you should start making videos! It’s a lot of work, but a lot of fun. And so satisfying finishing a video and seeing what you made out of the jumble of footage you started with lol plus it’s just nice documenting everything and having those videos to look back on later down the road 🙌🏻
I just kept mine stock and people still love it.
"You're like a real biker huh?" Was an adorable ending lol, good stuff.
.. after Nina gets comfortable on the Rebel 300, maybe find a sandy beach parking lot and have her try riding a dual sport :D? Haha, 10/10 can recommend sandy parking lots for teaching peeps how to ride (tall) bikes.
Even I’m tip toeing the DRZ so there’s nooo shot she fits on that, BUT it would be sick to get something a bit smaller like the new XR150L for something like that 🤔
@@LifeOfBurch Haha, half the fun is tip toeing just for a short enough time that you can get on it and rip away :p , gotta start practicing those No Foot Down stops haha (joking of course, keep it up Burch!)
You just need to be able to put one foot down
I do love the Navi concept. Honda please bring it over to europé.
I’ll trade you my Navi for a Dax 😂 We don’t get those over here, but they look awesome!
@@LifeOfBurch Think they're still holding out hope for the Trail/Hunter Cubs. Though its not like I can find them here in the states either where they're supposed to be available to buy, lol.
Hey bro I don't know if you ever got to notice in the mail but Honda Navi need to be taken to the shop they have a recall on the speedometer cable you should check it out just a heads up I took mine this past Friday
Are the 21 foot pounds of torque from the manifold the factory specifications? I looked for them everywhere and couldn't find them
I'm so happy nina was riding her bike. Awesome
She had already been out for a few hours on her own before that too!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@LifeOfBurch that's awesome.
Did the arrestor work better than the silencer at quieting the noise?
what silencer did you put on the exhaust ?
What exhuast is that. An where do i order one. For my navi.?
Can you post a part list for the studs and gasket ?
I generally hear a good amount of people who ride all sorts of Honda bikes complain about shitting fittings. Oddly, I still have a high opinion of their generally quality of machine, but these crappy fittings don't bode well. Not sure why they changed the types of fittings they use because this wasn't a problem 15-20 years ago.
If you’re talking about the exhaust stud that broke, that’s not a Honda thing I don’t think. Navi’s are notorious for breaking exhausts, especially the Vance & Hines that break at the flange weld. I think the Yoshi is just so beefy and strong that instead of the flange weld breaking under stress, the stud took the brunt of it. To be fair, I didn’t use a torque wrench the first time so it very well could’ve been over/under torqued, and it broke when I hit a huge bump, so it was just the perfect storm for a break in my opinion 🤷🏼♂️
@@LifeOfBurch In the past year I've seen a few people with issues on the Rebels, specifically suspension bolts, and another buddy has had issues with his Shadow, though, it's around 8 to 10 years old, so not exactly new. This is one of the things I took into account when choosing a middleweight cruiser recently and why I moved towards Suzuki instead of Honda.
Im goin in on em stixkers
That's better than finding the broken drill bits with your tire.
My Navi started sounding horrible. I just checked underneath today & one stud is cracked off like yours & part of it is stuck in the block :( the 2 nuts are gone & the gasket is disintegrated. Ordered a new stud for only $1.87. It's great that the parts on this bike are dirt cheap but really wish they used a better quality stud for the exhaust. I'm sure it will be a nightmare to remove the broken off piece. Do you think I should drain out the gas before putting the Navi on its side like that?
Don’t forget to gets some paint on that frame where the paint got off. Use cardboard for a mask, if you can fit it in that hole by folding it like an airplane.
We all lose tools, and don’t let some comments get to you. Your videos are great
What u need is a Knipex Plier Wrench they make a few sizes.
I hope Kemi Moto sees this video and reimburses you for that bracket 😅
Honestly they sent it to me for free to try out, so I can live with a broken bolt. It’s secure enough that it’s stuck on my bike at this point anyway since the bolt is free spinning and I can’t get the locknut off 😂🤘🏻
Hey brotha, the plastic license plate nut and bolt will work. You don’t need zip ties. I had the same issue. Keep playing with it, it works. I did mine and my brothers Navi.
Good to know! It looked hopeless to me, but I may have to go back in there and see if I have enough patience to make it work 😂
Some states require a reflector, but looks great
“Looks good but it kinda sucks” lol love it.
Gotta speak my truth!! 😂😂😂
@@LifeOfBurch absolutely!!
i think that the hanging while hot incident may have slightly bent the flange, a couple thou but noticiably
Dude just so you know a7/16 wrench will also fit an 11 mil
Left handed drill bits my guy
Talking about the missing 11mm wrench. I lost mine after working on my Tacoma a few years back. Later on i was in Oxnard CA picking up (truckdriver at the time) and what did I spy on the sidewalk? A Snapon 11mm wrench. That size must be jinxed. I later found my Craftsman 11mm riding in the air diverter beliw the engine.. It rode there for quite a while..
Welcome back nutbrown Navi! 🧟♂️
So stoked to have it back in action! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Great video as always... So, If ya get bored, come over to St. Louis! I've been trying to put some speakers on the Slingshot all weekend. It's either dumping rain or a 90 degrees and a billion % humidity (They like to trade off periodically), I tried to get the dog to do it but, that ungrateful mutt refuses to be a "team player" :(
Makes me feel a little bit better after spending 5 hours drilling out a broken bolt for a saddle bag, ez-out and extractors wouldn't grab. Fun stuff there. It's all fun and games u till righty tighty becomes righty loosy
I’m sorry that happened to you…but at least someone shares my pain! 😂😂😂 The only thing worse than breaking a bolt and realizing you need to somehow get it out with extractors, is the feeling when you realize the extractors aren’t going to be as easy of a solution as you thought 😅 After all those hours of fighting, the satisfaction of finally getting the bolt out is unmatched though! 🙌🏻
@LifeOfBurch always satisfying after a fight knowing you got it and didn't break more in the process on the bike. Drill bits are replaceable, breaking things on the frame or engine are a bit fear.
You mounted the turn signals wrong. They go in the lower holes. They will snap in and be in the correct position (Thats why you have that gap).
With the 1100 and the Navi, we'll turn you into a mechanic yet, lol.
Definitely won't be purchasing that license plate mount. It looks good but is complete junk. Thanks for the video and saving me a few bucks.
Okay so the dang thing is a pain in the butt but they’re so fun when they work😂 does this mean we get to race now or what?🏁🏎️
👀🛵💨🛵💨
Slot the license plate holes towards inside which will bring bolts in, peace
After I had the Navi a few months I had to look up in the manual which way choke was on or off. They have a confusing label. Also, did you get the Honda recall in the mail? The speedo cable can snap I guess. So my Navi will be in the shop for a 3rd time before 300 miles. I'm not having a good experience with it like everyone else claims to have.
Yea both of our Navis are on the recall list 😅 I’m debating whether I want to just do it myself since it would be quite the ordeal getting both bikes to the shop just to reroute a cable.
Someone told me bleach toilet bowl cleaner to clean stainless, haven't tried it but might be worth a shot
Link 🔗 to studs please 🙏
Lol at kenimoto. I have their bar end mirrors on my fz1. So far so good but I expect failure at any given time.
LOL, we all do stuff like leaving the choke on and wondering why the bike doesn't run right - it just happens.
If it were me, I would've returned that license plate bracket - no way do I want to risk having my plate fall off or being THAT easy to steal [and you KNOW people steal plates], but you get +10 Internets for rigging up a solution.
PS: I have at least one zip tie I've added to my Street Glide :D Am I now a bike builder? ;)
yup a poorly made bracket
Great vid as always. Loved the ending. I’m curious what you think of the looks of the Honda Monkey, thinking about picking one up tomorrow but I also like the grom, help!
I got to test ride a Monkey at Daytona Bike Week and LOVED it! Compared to the Grom it felt much more comfortable to me, especially stock vs stock. The seat was much more plush and the seating position felt more relaxed. Not sure if the ergos are actually different, but that’s how it felt. I believe the Monkey is also geared a bit different to have a bit more low end. Plus, the Monkey feels much more “utilitarian” whereas the Grom feels more “hooligan” if that makes sense. I looove my Grom, but if I were buying new right now I think I’d go Monkey over Grom!
@@LifeOfBurch thanks for the thorough response 🙏🙏🙏 monkey it is!
Kemimoto "looks good but kinda sucks" is their company moto
For some reason this aftermarket companies don't put center support on this pipes,
Nina lookin' like a badass on her 300 on the streets!
Right?! She was out cruising for a few hours that day! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@LifeOfBurch A few hours?! Dang son. She basically a real biker now.
I’d say that bracket is a 3/10 quality, from what I saw
That bolt needs Loctite not anticize. anticize is for bolts you remove often Loctite is for when you don't want them to vibrate loose.
bummer a poorly made bracket, have to rebuild it to work as it should have been. then repaint so it looks new. lol
my choice would be to trim the original,
tweak it to please me (custom) ;)
then repaint or powder coat? to please me
might save a few $?
but more to get it juuuust right. lol
yup I be picky
even on something thats just a scooter ;)
I know a few folks in Asian countries that call it a motor bike, they live in the city & seldom go over 40 mph
Now to get an invite to Trav's with the DRZ?
Now that would be badass! 🤘🏻
paid Kemi Moto $40 to make the plate look worse lol
This just happened to me today literally 🤦🏾♂️
Same
Pfft, everyone knows the Honda Navi comes with a tail fender delete stock.
You just zip tie the license plate to the back of the grab bar :p
Extreme couponing- Honda Navi edition! 😂🤘🏻
Use a 7/16 instead of the 11mm you can't find... 😮
Well, you never know!
Omg I won something?
$100? Damn. I live in Indy.
Dude the battle I fought against that damn stud…I wish I had just found someone to take me up on the $100 offer 😂
bro you aint never seen a crusty dusty abandoned motorcycle
Next time try a left handed drill bit, and don't forget that because it is left handed you have to run the drill in revers. Most times the bolt will come out with the drill, but always use a drill that is right for the ez out just in case it dose not come out, I find the square ez outs work best, but for get about the snap on ones they break or round off way to easy . When you use a right hand drill you are making the bolt tighter in stead of backing it out, which makes it harder for the ez out to work. You can also get a extension for the drill to hold the drill farther away so no need to squeeze the drill in a tight spot making it a lot easer to line the drill up to the bolt. Pays to be a Industrial Millwright some times. By the way I do like most of snap on tools just not there ez outs.
Digging the hand tattoos. Try doing your fingers?. I have exo 3:14 on my left hand and on the right proverbs 19"8. Before I get a bunch of negatives. Look it up
Nice dude!! I didn’t know you had hand tattoos. Finger tattoos are definitely in my future at some point, but they’re so tricky to heal with all the hands-on stuff I do.
For the side of the license plate mounting hole/ plate screw you were having trouble with; pull the mounting nut off the turn signal mounting screw and slide the turn signal out of the hole (don't worry about the wire, it's not in the way enough to matter). Now mount the plate with the plastic screw and nut, and then trim the extra plastic off the screw that sticks past the now screwed on nut. Re-mount the turn signal and life is now back in equilibrium. 😉
Great idea! I don’t know if I want to put anymore time and energy into a $40 tag mount, BUT if I wake up one morning with extra motivation or extra hatred towards zip ties, I’ll definitely be going this route! 😂🤘🏻
Oh Honda.......#Whathappened?
This isn’t a Honda issue. This is a “Burch abusing the ever living hell out of his Navi after not using a torque wrench” issue 😂🤘🏻
You make an interesting vlog with these Hondas. If you want a boring motorcycling life, sell the Hondas and get a Suzuki SV650. Been around forever, super reliable, because the problems were worked out over a decade ago. It would probably make your vlogs a lot less interesting, though.
Glad you like the vlogs Kenny! That’s the only solace I have as I’m breaking everything and fixing it, is at least my pain can be entertainment for everyone else! 😂🤘🏻
LifeOfBurch Have you modded your other NAVI much, since buying the Nut Brown One? Considering you were already in there I might have done the other bolt too; because #1 it would have been stressed from the other one breaking. #2. You don't know if HONDA put anti-seize on it. P.S. I have a "hack" for the broken bolt that worked for me once. I drilled a small hole in the bolt (smaller than you did) then inserted a hardened steel rod coated in super glue. Once dried I was able to lock on to the rod enough to get it out.
This is why the Navi failed in India. Wasn't built to Honda's usual high standard. Plus it wasn't a real motorcycle and it wasn't a real scooter either.
i have 8k miles on mine still running
@@ronsmith7262 Honda have just added on a $350 in store credit to the Navi here in Canada, so ..
@@ShahryarSaigol the only thing I’ve done is change the back tire 4x and the front once and 2 belts. Runs good
First?
First again!! 🏆🏆🏆
@@LifeOfBurch let’s goooo
Now delete that hideous rear
fender
zero sympathy for dude who put an exhaust on a navi.
I've watched 3 of your videos and.. is time to tell you so you can realize how much troubles you have with screws and bolts, dude is time to use less pressure on those, ok!?
