    I was a RAAF technician on fighters. Your oil filter is lockwired backwards but it will still prevent it coming off entirely. I found it was often best to start a lockwire by hand before locking the pliers on. The secret to a nice tight lockwire is not to use the pull-out, but rather to keep plenty of tension on and hand-turn the pliers.

    Many things to take from this video..... NG are a great club to race with, the Northovers are a great bunch and lock wiring is definitely an art 😂
    Interesting take on the cost of racing, I think getting things second hand really helps. I race a CB500 and this year was my first season, all in I reckon it cost me £2500 for everything from bike, licence, awning and gear etc. Each weekend cost me about £700 on average which covered everything, so not cheap but can't recommend it enough for anyone thinking about giving it a go.
    Thanks for a great video as always, glad you were alright after your unscheduled lie down Chris!

    I always wipe a smear of clean engine oil over the seal, just so the seal doesn't get damaged when doing it up....I always clean the surface it's going to face. Also I pre fill the filter before putting it on. Just something I've learnt over the years watching UA-cam. I can't wait to see the next episode of you racing the old SV, good luck.

    Oh dear, I felt that second when you were going down, same thing here 10 years ago. Just not on a budget bike but my only bike, which was a quite fresh Monster 796 back then. Young overexcitement can do that. Restored her back to former glory, removed the main frame, got it repainted and whatnot. Still have that bike, 40k on the clock and still going. Just road use nowadays though, my better half tends to tell me that it'd be unforgivable to wreck all the billet bling on it now.

    As a mechanic, about the oil filter, lubing the o ring is dependant on manufacturer BUT its ideal in my opinion since it, well, lubes the o ring so its nicer to tight and oil will make the rubber swell and promote sealing over time. Oil filters have a very low torque spec and i never seen one back off all the way out in my experience. Ive seen very loose ones that never leaked tho

    • @Bmused247
      @Bmused247 2 місяці тому

    Some low rise alloy motocross bars is a must if you don't go the clip on route, also the one thing not mentioned in the whole cost of racing analysis is tyres, they're very expensive and don't last very long, depending on the bike you're riding.

  • @bccapone837
    @bccapone837 Місяць тому +1

    well done on the race you did really well , I've bought a couple of bikes from moto mine now too , grease seal to stop the o'ring binding up and it won't make them come loose even doing it hand tight I've never had one come loose by greasing and done up hand tight in 20 years , but no need to fill it in my opinion as it's horizontal.

  • @peterherrington3300

    Oil the seal first? Doesn't matter. Prefill the filter first? Doesn't matter. Just torque it to spec and it should never come undone. (Or just do it as tight as you can by hand and it'll be roughly right).
    One small thing though - jubilee clips round the filter are superior to filters with lockwire holes IMO because you can just slacken the clip and replace the filter, no need to cut the lockwire and rewire it every time!

    10:30 Lever guards may not be the best solution, but I was in the grandstand watching the 250 Catalunya GP when Jeremy McWilliams was catapulted into the air after Robby Rolfo hit his brake lever. A scary moment and definitely something to be avoided. That was the first time I can remember seeing this type of incident. The next one that I can remember was, funnily enough, again Catalunya, this time from the 2006 MotoGP race when Gibernau's brake lever hit the back of Capirossi's bike sending him over the bars and taking down six bikes in total.

    Oil filter, lightly oil the seal so it doesn`t drag and distort radially as it`s tightened. Only prefill filters that are installed vertically with the screw fitting uppermost otherwise you just make a mess.

    Hi Chris.i always lubricate the o ring to stop it dragging as you tighten the last half a turn.unless the oil filter sits underneath the car or bike its pointless filling it with oil because half of the oil will pour out as you fit it back on.

    Weakest points on these SV's by far, are suspension and brakes. At a minimum toss in a set of proper springs, a set of valve emulators for the damper-rod forks, and upgraded brake pads.

    Maybe I should progress from track days to racing..... My track bike is a 1998 Honda VTR 1000, usually the oldest bike on track. And I am 69 years old. Usually the oldest rider on track. What could possibly go wrong if I start racing??

    Love this, thank you👍 For me, oil on the seal to reduce shear stress to seal when fitting. Strain on the filter thread prevents the housing moving, oil on the seal wont make any difference IMHO. Dry engine, I pump oil into the galley and slowly turn over before starting. Wet engine, I do what the manufacturer engineers tell me, which is normally put the filter on as is, start the engine. If dry filters wrecked engines, I think we'd see the evidence for that somewhere by now.

    @backontwowheels9469 2 місяці тому

    Ford trained before heading in a different direction but we always put a smear of fresh oil around the rubber seal and I believe it was so that you could get a bit more twist on the filter in turn creating a better seal.

  • @ianwarren8316
    @ianwarren8316 2 місяці тому

    Oil the filter seal first, and fill it with oil if the manufacturer states you should as it may not fill completely straight away due to the layout of the oil circuit and briefly starve the engine of oil on startup.
    If the manufacturer doesn’t say do this the oil system is such that it will always fill when you pour the oil in so it’s un-necessary and can be very messy to try.

  • @Trevorpartington-yc6ri
    @Trevorpartington-yc6ri 2 місяці тому

    oil filter , silcon grease around the gasket or o-ring depending on model, filling it first is just a short cut to get the oil level right quicker.
    I find silicon grease works best because it preserves the gasket or o-ring, makes it more supple unlike oil does.
    As for recycled oil ..... sure! ... it's just recycled dinosours and plants anyway :D
    I havn't riden a bike for years, about the time the SV came out and I always regret not riding or owning one of these. one day maybe.............. sv's look awsome and that engine is builet prrof.
    Loverly bike !

  • @P6_7R_Nick
    @P6_7R_Nick 2 місяці тому

    Firstly Chris, where do you get motul oil analysis in the UK please?
    Secondly, a smear of new oil on the oil filter seal, if the filter can be fitted without loosing oil out of it then it doesn't harm filling it up but if the oil will spill out when fitting, don't bother filling.
    Best advice I can give when changing the oil on your bike is don't forget to put the new oil in with the sump plug fitted before riding off.
