  • With the rest of the bike getting a full treatment I thought I'd better at least scrub down the motor and make it look as good as it runs.

    Another great video Pete! As a former boat builder I would never used steel wool on anything as it imparts tiny bits of steel into everything and it rusts. Scotchbrite or copper wool is safer.
    Love your tap/bolt method. Certainly, saves the cylinder fins from the hammer. Music a bit loud. Thanks for sharing your tips with us Triple nuts! Keep the great videos coming. Cheers, Kirb.

      Thanks for the advice Kirby! I agree with the music. This is an early video of mine and let's just say I went through a LONG learning curve with editing haha

    great idea with the bolts. how about putting the bolts in a lathe and turning down the bottom 25mm or more to the smaller hole size and then continue.

      That's a great idea! Definitely worth whipping some of those up for future builds. thanks!

    I would stop using the music and narrate the video later, but the info was good.

      Thanks for the input! Since I do the WHOLE thing start to finish on a cell phone it's hard sometimes to get the proper audio mixing. This is something that I've been working on and am glad you brought up. I hope to upgrade to more proper equipment this year which should hopefully make for much better quality.

    The bolts you are using to pull the cyl drill them out to 3/8 and tap them , then run some 5 inch down threw them, they well then push on the studs in the case

    Just grind the bottom of the bolt, or insert a length of steel rod into each hole. :) plus your method

      @@PetesClassicCycle Yeah. Penetrating oil, time and some heat. Time, sleeping on it, persistence. Your method looks good. I use lots of antiseize; like you said. Seems that the spring washer on head bolts is the entry for water in the first place :(

      @@pauloconnor7951 that's what I heard. Apparently one guy machined up his own head bolts with a flange and then completely eliminated the lock washer all together. I'm sure there's some type of sealant that you can use though

      @@PetesClassicCycle . Yeah there's copperised silicone. Could just fill the spring washer with it. A tad messy. Keep water out. antiseize works too. Ride regularly; long enough to get hot and evaporate water out if it previously got wet.

    Great video, but why use music ..?? It would be so much better without the music

    • @PetesClassicCycle
      @PetesClassicCycle  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the criticism. This is an old video done when I was still learning lots about audio tracking with very crude software. I have since been working really hard to produce videos with better sound quality and try to use a back track that best suits each video..unfortunately it's not a 1 size fits all thing making it very hard to do.
