I sit mesmerized through all these sorts of videos; learning, enjoying and loving the process.
I do too, it's brilliant!
Glad you showed us the state of the bearings, and being thorough, it shows it's worth the effort
Too right my friend, on so many occasions we hear people suffer a bearing collapse, but there were no tell tale symptoms, I'm honestly surprised that wheel bearings are not a long term service item that should be replaced on a periodic basis... 5yrs would be fine for a daily used bike, but even if they advised it every 10yrs, it would still be good advice, just on spec, because look what you can find when you yank them out!
I completely agree with the sentiment that a used bike is an unknown quantity. I got a used 2014 Tiger where the previous owner told me he dropped it in a river and parked it for multiple years. So I am going all the way down just like you are doing. I’ve never done them before, but thanks to your videos I feel comfortable doing them. And I am having a BLAST doing it. I never thought I could have this much fun working on a bike.
Glad to hear you're enjoying your project Jason, and im really glad the videos can support and inspire your progress, Take care and keep safe buddy, and have fun.. Del.
I've never done much more to a bike than lube and adjust the chain, but watching your detailed videos is encouraging me to do a full check/rebuild of my 03 busa! Will binge watch all your busa vids, create a massive buy list and go wild. Might even record so others can laugh at me online! Thanks a lot for your vids!!
Learn so much from these videos. It's almost a zen like experience seeing you demonstrate to us how all those hidden jobs that seem impossibly hairy, can be done. I'm finally starting to learn that proper maintenance is slightly more than stripping the fairings off and giving everything a good clean. I particularly appreciate the pride and care you take, making best of everything at your disposal. Your channel is almost as good as having you live next door - only difference is that I'm not leant by your garage door offering cups of tea and asking lots of questions! Good stuff
At my garage making me Tea ?.. now thats a good way to make friends.. lol.. Seriously.. thank you for your kind comments and support.. have good weekend... del.
I really appreciate the methodical way you show and explain these vital jobs, keep on greasing, great job.
Top stuff. The next thing I’m going to do off your vids. Thanks heaps and heaps.
Del that’s made some job of it looks way better that’s a good start fare play 👍🏻
That Frisbee would knock my dog's teeth out ha . Enjoying the build Del .
Excellent tutorials as ever, i,m a year round biker and have taught myself over the years various fixes, services etc and have no doubt saved a load of money on garage bills.
We have had wheeler dealers and other various car based programmes over the years, delboy,s garage has a real ring to it for motorbike enthusiasts- producers take note!
I feel sorry for you having to deal with all the smart arses, keep up great work del and f@ck the haters
Thanks Neil, they ain't so bad mate, tbh their incessant gibbering is quite comical in the end, like a bunch of twittering schoolgirls... sigh... bless 'em!
Moonfleet41 I’m glad you can see the funny side of it mate.
Thats social media for you .just how it goes , best to just ignore the people who just say nasty stuff just for sake of it.
cyberjack-CJ seems UA-cam is a fairly toxic place. I just don’t understand how people are nobs on social media, but probably not that bad in real life.
Couldn't agree more. There are many, many more of us who enjoy your enthusiasm and entertaining vids Del!
I was looking for another subscribe button after the bit about bearings, great stuff I'm learning so much.
This channel is gold
Gotta say that this is a great learning project for us that don't do this on a regular basis. Doing all of those bearings just makes sense when you don't know how it was taken care of in the past. Judging by the shape of that one, you made the correct call. I love the design part of these builds, but will never do that. This keeps me interested in the projects
Thank you Ron, it's an honour that you find these videos useful, it's just basic stuff, but baffling if you've never seen it, or done it, as you can see, there's not much to it, and that goes for the costs too, hope you stick around for the creative bit, because it's gonna very daft and lots of fun... but just gotta take care of business first, so I can rest assured that this bike won't assassinate me !
It us so peaceful to see these videos.... slow art....
Awesome Job......Penny and You Del Ride Safely and have A Wonderful Week.
Thanks Paul, keeping on keeping on lol... more to do, but had a nice ride out yesterday in the sunshine... you ride safe too, all the best, D&Px
@@Moonfleet41 I had an awesome ride to yesterday the weather was beautiful.
Great video Del. You change your bearings because you are conscientious. It's your bike and you do not have to defend silly comments or questions. Who could ever argue against changing them if you don't know the bikes history. It is always safer to change them Vs not changing them. Great work Del.
You are absolutely right my friend, but you know ho it is with the trolling peanut gallery, you'd hand them a cure for the common cold and they'd say it's dangerous... we don't focus on the negatives, they'll always be there, but with the bearing in that state, this time it was worth a mention and to show the answer to their stupid question, rather than say it. Thanks for your support mate!
another perfect class, thanks my friend for sharing your knowledge, and congratulations on the work tools that make the activity a lot easier
Great job Delboy! FYI, how you test a bearing of that type is rotate it UNDER LOAD! It might feel fine just spinning it unloaded but when you apply pressure you will feel if it's chowdered and rough
Dead right mate, I think the term is rumble, it's the first indicator you can hear in your car if you've got a bearing on the way, you hear the rumble inside while driving and the offending wheel will be hotter to the touch than the others... thanks for your input mate.
Bearings: Point well made Del :-)
As always, most informative video for us old guys lol. But seriously, thank you for taking the time to do this one, really. I was going to get my rims powder coated (my treat for birthday), but when I took the wheels off and brought them to a friends place, he said it would be too much to do (no tools). So I though that was it, but decided after two weeks to do it. So I had the bearings popped out (not as good as your way, will have to invest in a pully) and my rims are getting powder coated a flat gold. Bearings ( seals/bearings on order) should be here in a week or so. Then I can start putting the bearings back in, going to try your idea of putting them in, I do believe you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Great news buddy, sometimes jobs just won't get done because they're a lot of work, but when you get stuck in, there's not much to it, it's just nuts and bolts and once it's all back together and looking great, you'll be glad you did it... have fun and good luck!
I have a "Friend" Who seems to know-it-all(LMAO). I never take anything he says to heart. I just 'Smile and carry on'. I really do enjoy ALL your videos, Del.
Thanks buddy, we all know one of them aye lol... thanks for your support mate, much appreciated.
My bike was stored for 15 years and I’m going through replacing a lot of the vital components bearings, brakes and ignition components along with wheel bearings and tires
"These old bikes" never a truer word said Del! Nasty looking bearing indeed mate at least you have peace of mind now. :)
Sure thing buddy, exactly that... hope you're well mate, have a great weekend!
@@Moonfleet41 Thanks Del I will it's my 40th tomorrow
@@SurreyRider Just spotted this mate,, Happy Cake day for today then.. i remember 40..sigh..!
@@Moonfleet41 Thanks Del, Much alcohol and cake was consumed :)
I always keep varying sizes of flare nut spanners in my box. They work wonders
Screw the haters Del! This channel is awesome! Looking forward to seeing what happens with this project :)
i see no haters
I don’t understand why you bother to watch the videos just to criticise?
If you don’t like the content... don’t watch. Simple
Another wheel bearing down! I like how clean you keep your shop, that’s how I keep my garage too or at least I try to lol
Thanks Ethan, a clean space i a safe space aye..!
You’re welcome and yea man!
Well said Del - Total sense.
I’ve had a front wheel bearing collapse pushing the bike out of the shed . Thankfully it wasn’t 5 minutes down the road .
I’m right with you on always changing them on old bikes . I always change mine
Nice video Del, it's the only way to go bearing and bushes all round. You only have one life. So no short cuts that way we get to ride into a very old age we hope lol. Penny and you have a very relaxing weekend mate. Cheers
You too Sir, and I couldn't agree more, bearings on-negotiable!
Great to find a channel where the host is very realistic and down to earth! I run a garage myself so appreciate your work and thought process very much. Originally found your channel after doing some research on the Clarke lathe. Happily clicked subscribe, hello from a fellow biker too. Thank you and have a great new year when it comes.
Good morning Stef, Good to hear from you sir, and thank you for the cool feedback, i really appreciate your words of encouragement, it makes all the time spent making the videos worthwhile... Hope you're enjoying the Lathe, i use mine all the time, and make all kinds of handy things with it, plus help a few mates out as well.. have a happy new year mate, welcome aboard and keep in touch.. Del.
Great video. Just Watched it and went to check on my bike, had a ticking sound in the rear wheel, pulled the hub and found a bearing that was shattered in 100 pcs. Weirdley it did not show any symtoms exept the ticking noise. Went ahead and ordered new bearings for front and back wheels
Great content in your channel.💪💪
By far the best 25 minutes of my life learning how to fix my bike. You are a God in explaining what you do and why. I subbed! Keep this stuff coming mate!
Thanks for the sub mate, that's very kind, and really appreciate the kind words too. !
Great tips in there pal 👍🏼
You are so right regarding the bearings, my Ducati is 20 years old and has only done 10000 miles, i have replaced all the rear wheel bearings - they were nackered ! I am just about to replace the front ones- they were notchy and and dryed out. Great vidio.
Good move buddy, and great to hear you're still rocking the Ducati!... I've always been surprised that they aren't a long term service item and placed on a periodic change int he service schedule, but then we can't expect the manufacturer to hold our hand for a lifetime, some things are down to common sense aye?
@@Moonfleet41 Thanks for the reply - i have done a small vidio on my channel on the bearing change.
When I lived in Oz nearly everyone did their own work on their various machines, I always remember this guy telling merit you but something used, start off with brakes tyres bearings etc first, cosmetics last really good advice. It's amazing how everything adds up cost wise, & a lot of its hidden, great vlog as per usual guys, all the best both x 👍👍😎
Sure thing Geoff, good advice... and hope the paintwork was all tickety boo and looks great now it's back on the bike?!
@@Moonfleet41 yes, pretty satisfied, most people wouldn't have bothered but my OCD struck again, my missus can't believe how Ilook after my stuff, it all.goes back to not having much as a kid. I bought Jean a new Hyundai i30 in 2010, my mate reckons it's in better condition than when it was delivered , ah well !!!!!!!👍👍😎x
Amazing. I got a 600cc SRAD, and I recognize so many parts that look identical on the 'busa.
Little tip and one that I use at work is stick your bearings in the freezer over night. This will reduce the size by a "smidge" and will help to fit the new bearing.
I got lots of applications like this where the outer race is the Transition fit and the inner race is top end clearance so that the shaft effectively slides through.
Doesn't all work but sometimes it's just the ticket.
Great work and well played changing those brgs - well buggered.
People forget that if something goes wrong on a bike, not going to end nicely - peace of mind is everything.
Hi Marcus, Yes, there is no denying that the good old "Freezer Ploy" is a well tried and tested method... but personally i have always questioned the practice of effectively "freezing" hardened steel parts, and then forcing them into a warm or heated metal hub....the sudden instant change in temperature must cause a heat shock?, that can't be good for the steel and must have some effect on it like quenching hot metal.?? no?.. maybe not, and maybe im paranoid.. but as they press in so easy like this, im happy working at room temp for now... thanks again for your input buddy, have a good week... Del.
I had the real wheel bearing explode on my Fat Bob a couple of years back. The bike was only 5 years old with 8000 miles on the clock. I was going down my local By-pass at the time, and had just slowed down from 70+ mph. I was just exiting off one of the roundabouts doing around 40mph. When without any prior warnings or odd feel, the back end just seemed to collapse. At 1st I thought it was a blowout. Fortunately I was only just over a mile from home and was able to limp home at around10mph. Which in turn sort of welded the remains of the bearing to the wheel. What a hassle it was to remove, fortunately the damage to the hub was repairable. All in all, a scary experience!!
Bloody hell mate, that could have been so much worse aye.. glad you got away with it, and incredible for so little mileage aye..!
It is so great to see your videos. Always entertaining, educational and superb wisdom on the white board. It is much better than anything on TV here in Sweden. Keep it up Del and Penny, you both deserve a lot of credits for all the hard work you put in. Love from Sweden!
Ah, thank you my friend, that is so kind and how wonderful to hear from you all the way from beautiful Sweden... we really appreciate your kind support, it's wonderful to know we reach out so far and wide! Have a great weekend, ride safe, D&Px
I agree 100 percent about the wheel bearings, I don’t know why someone would question you, I’ve learned a lot from you, thanks for making these videos !!! I really mean that!!!!!
Thanks buddy, I don't think that the kind of criticism certain people make is based in right or wrong, it's simply haters hating because it's their coping mechanism and what makes them feel better about themselves, I wouldn't normally bother, cos these people are worth the breath, but as I discovered such a badly corroded bearing, I thought it was poignant to make it clear... thanks for watching buddy, appreciate the support!
Good job fare play 2 ya ur man lik my self uf u dont know the bike change every bearing on it double check every thing on t bike its your life your takeing a chance with .i enjoy looking at ur wrk fare play bud tnks
Well that's fantastic job sir:) You're the guy here but I think that's little bit to much grease on threads for me but maybe I'm just a noob here :)
Greets from Poland . Ride safe !
Great work, and many thanks for running a genuinely educational channel.
Most welcome Paul, we really appreciate your kind comments and support.. Take care.. Del.
wow what a lesson on the bearing's .there's one thing for certain i would not question your judgement ..great video
Holy shit those bearings were finished! Makes me want to sort up the bearings on my bike. :D Thank you for this eye opening vid.
Another excellent video 👍🏻 Can’t wait for the rest, will be a big help when I do my rear suspension linkages etc.
Totally understand replacing those. I don't think people realize what duress those are on etc. good job man.
That's what I call "a clean job"!
Keep on going. Can wait for your videos!
Great video as always Del keep up the great work.
Mega stuff dell .. lots of people out there looking forward two seeing your greatness once again on this bad boy ...
excellent presentation Del. love the Hayabusa .keep the vids coming.cheers and thanks for taking the time to share.
22:27 I think that's the sound we all make when a years-rusted-in bolt cracks loose
Too right mate, part relief and part satisfaction!
My mechanical ability is limited to say the least, I am enjoying these videos so much and learning loads - thanks!
Great job Del and sound advice all the way down the line... keep 'em coming owd son
Cheers Bob, good to hear from you mate.
Another great vid brother 👍
Good job Dell, good honest spannering that and as you say peace of mind that you know it's all sound!!
Great info as always! Thank you sir!👍
cheers, useful for those of us who live near the sea and don't have the luxury of parking indoors.
Too right my friend, we live not far from the coast, but those who live right down on the water, places like Portland, suffer terribly, wax oil is their friend!
Good video Del.Real eye opener on old Bearings.Cheers!
Too right, Del! I used to work in a few shops and anytime I had to do tires the first thing I’d do is take the axle over to the bench grinder that was fitted with a wire wheel and zip all that old crud off of it. Then I’d lather it up with marine grade waterproof grease. One shop I was hanging out in the mechanic was trying to hammer out a rear axle on a Harley sportster. The last guy didn’t put ANY grease on it when he installed it so the thing heated up and welded itself to the bearings at some point and nearly killed the rider. He got the thing out with a point end pry bar and a 5 pound hand sledgehammer. But when he finally got the thing out he wound up splitting the axle. No lie! Plus the bike almost tilted off the lift because of it. And you those Harley axles are case hardened grade 5 or 8 steel.
Blimey, sounds like a bad day in the shop, I think we've all been there at one point or another, and am not saying it too loudly, but I've still yet to get the swingarm axle out of this Hayabusa, and I doubt it's ever been out... but at least we can usually rely on the factory to have assembled it right, so we shall see!... I've always said that the sign of a good mechanic is not the fancy row of certificates on the wall, it's their ability to get round problems to adapt, improvise and overcome things without simply throwing stuff away and charging the customer for a new one... even more motivation when it's your own bike and your own money!
Moonfleet41 Damn straight!
Great video,well explained.
Totally agree with you del! i replace bearings as a matter of course if i have bought an old bike and changing tyres etc and always atleast check and grease suspension linkages and use my judgement to replace or not, a lot of people think things last forever in this world mate then blame the bike when something goes wrong...
Yep, you got that right... and from my days in the bike trade, it was comical the people who would blame warranty when a matter of total neglect bit them in the arse... most warranties aren't really worth much, it's up to us to take care of ourselves and keep safe, as I'm sure you'll agree!
Del that was a good point well made with the rusty bearing well done .
One more great video Del, so much good information .
Great stuff. Thanks 👍
Another Great Vid. Plan B worked a Treat. Amazing what I learn from these videos. Brilliant.
Cheers buddy, there's always a way to get round things and, hopefully, without breaking stuff!
We all learn from each other and I’ve learned much from your videos.
I totally agree with you when it comes to buying a second hand bike with a good bit of mileage on it. I've just finished a 6 month project ( k2 gsxr1000 with just over 30k on the clock) I did exactly the same as you and replaced all the bearings. I'm not even going to keep it, but for peace of mind I and safety of the new owner. These jobs are a must. Thankyou for all your advice, you've helped me alot with my own projects. Keep up the good work 🏍👍
Wise words and sound actions my friend, covering your back and taking care of the new owners safety is a sterling and noble attitude, one that maybe a few more sellers should consider adopting, having seen some of the crap that gets sold as 'good condition' ... I bought this bike from a dealer who gave me a warranty, but he can't warranty what might happen, so am happy to change it all myself on a missile like this!
Bizarrely I'm doing my rear bearing after a tyre change hi-lighted the hub bearing was Clanky and I find you've just posted this? Looks nice and easy so this will be another Dellboy inspired tasks 😀👍
Hi, nice job Dell. It's better to know what you are dealing with than have a surprise. Enjoy your weekend, it looks chilly but nice. thanks . Gus
Totally agree, every word Sir! Hoping to get out for a ride on Sunday!
Parabéns muito boa revisão, nada como ter boas ferramentas e conhecimento
Obrigado senhor, você é mais gentil.
Hi Del, great video as always, love seeing you work on a Suzuki. I did the wheels and swingarm and linkage bearings last year on my v-strom 1000, the linkage bearings located on the swingarm (were the dogbones go) were an utter pita to remove. Had to resort to grinding them in the end. Looking forward to see that bit. Keep up the good job.
Hey Glauco, not sure if i have all the puller sizes ill need for the swing arm, so ill have to wait till it drop it out to see..!
Thanks for the video
Informative vid and sound sensible advice. Fair play to you del 😎😎😎
Spot on with the bearing replacement. A friend and I went out for a ride and while on the way back he felt his rear wheel start to wiggle, sort of like he had a flat tire. Long story short, the bearing disintegrated on him, we had to call for a tow truck as we were almost 100 miles from home. Bearings can be found from many places and can be less expensive than OEM suppliers. If you know how to decipher the bearing code you can easily find quality replacements. Nachi, SKF, Koyo, etc.
Too right my friend, sounds like your buddy got away with it, they can so often go with no warning... good dodge on the bearings, you can find them by their codes indeed, and many options available!... ride safe buddy...
Great vid again Del, those bearings were proper minty 😂
nice job
Great advice as always matey
Top job,keep em coming
Great vid as usual mate.
'might help those of you with old bikes'... Mine's less than four years old and looks about the same after year-round use and 55K miles! Even with regular maintainence, I think if you've a high mileage, daily rider then you're going to end up with a certain amount of 'patina' around the bike!
I had a carrier bearing blow on mine a few years back and that was OEM on 20-something thousand miles. Just a messy paste left behind when I pulled it all apart.
Of course Adam, you're dead right, Life use and mileage can pay a heavier toll on a bike that age alone... Great to hear you ride hard core all year round too, its incredible how much your skills on the road will improve riding through winter aye..
Good vid again Del, and Keith was indeed a very lucky man.
Good call to change all the bearings 👍👍👍.
Cheers 🍻
Sure thing buddy, I've always believed they should be a long term service item, 10yrs would be ok, or even 5 on a commuter bike, they are a wear item after all!
grate video and advice as always dell .
Thorough job as usual del 👍
Loving the longer videos again Del, really engaging stuff. Cheers, Alex
Thanks you Alex, they take a lot longer to make, so its good to know they are appreciated..
After seeing the state of the spindle nut and the seizure of the wheel adjusters I knew the bearings would be shot Bro good call to change them as a matter of course keep up the good work MH&R
Hey Brother, Great to hear from you, hope life is good.. and yeah, i knew i'd find some horror in there somewhere.... can't wait to set the swing arm bearings free... lets hope i can get them out without resorting to cordite.. ! Ride safe, boots in the breeze, and keep in touch.. MH&R,, Del.
Thanks for another great video, some really great advice about bearing and tire safety. As Tyler Swift say's "the haters gonna hate and the fakers gonna fake " but I think you gonna shake that bike down right. 10/10 Dell.
Thanks Andy, yeah, wise words those aye.. You'll always be able to rely on the 'short attention span' brigade sour the barrel aye..!
Another excellent video, Del. Very helpful, mate 👍.
Thank you buddy, now you'll be able to replace the bearings on your Harley project when you buy it shortly!... pip pip, see ya Sunday mate!
Spot on about replacing the bearings. I'm doing up a 92 Divi for the Mrs. It is being done to a budget, things like odd levers can stay, but every safety critical part is being replaced regardless of what it looks like. I don't know if they are quality bearings or some cheaper than cheap rubbish ones. I'm dead lucky as I live a 5 minute ride from wemoto, and the boys and girls there are top notch. (Hello Dave, Tom, Haz and Dan!)
Keep up the great work Del. Look forward to the next one.
What? You live where? I am so jealous, every time I'm anywhere near Brighton, I drop in for a brew and say Hi..! You're dead right, the SlinkyGlide products are top quality and backed by a guarantee from Wemoto that is hard to find, even from dealerships, these days... tell 'em we said Hi next time you drop in... ride safe, D&Px
those extractors are great !!!
Job well done, I really enjoy your videos! 👍
Hi Harold, Thank you so much for your kind support, its a fun project and im really looking forward to the creative bit later on.. !
Another very informative video!
Once again good advice✌️
Great job Del!
Nice job
Great video. Love your videos Del. You are super amazing.
Thank you buddy, you're very kind and that's much appreciated.
I'd give anything to have your knowledge great videos
great videos del, you and penny have helped me out a lot, keep up the good work
You're welcome, glad to know it helps!
ive actually had a rear wheel bearing explode on a scooter of mine a few years back, when i just started riding it! luckily i was going really slowly, because i was almost at my school, but otherwise that wouldve been a disaster... so i can totally understand you wanting to change them on something thats heavier and goes faster than my little 50cc Aprilia red rose classic!
Hi Del nice work as always
Take that suckers...
Another worthy job of the list 😎
Good job done well by Del👊
Sure thing brother, you know how it is... just takin' care of business!
