Honestly would prefer a 45+ minute video of stuff like this. The people saying attention spans are 10-15 seconds aren’t interpreting the data in the right way.
Great vid Sir, one of the best !, bit scary cause I am getting one of these in the next 2 weeks or so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thank you for you professionalism
Great video. Meticulous attention to fix the bike. I'm motivated on doing the change of valve seals on my xr 190 after watching the video, keep the great work
Now I understand why “split the case” = expensive! Very cool explanation! Typically with no bang shifting, how long have you seen most transmissions last under normal conditions?
@@TheMotorcycleMD Sweet, I'm sitting at 19,000 miles, and when I do my part my 07 VT750C2 seems to be shifting fine. Hoping to keep it for the foreseeable future. Thanks for all your work to share these details!
Have you noticed an increase in problems, since Honda and the others are manufacturing in Malaysia? Nice video. I do not mind long videos, especially those that are well done.
hello, Was it a frequent problem on the CB300R models? Was it more common to previous models 2018-2019 or is it still happening with those from 2022-2024 What was the mileage of this particular bike when you we're repairing it? Thank you
The conical spring washers are to provide drag and prevent the gears chattering by loading the narrow interference gear to the actual balance shaft driven gear. It's a lot simpler than the internal springs and pads used 25~30 years ago. Did you recheck torque on all the fork pinch bolts?
Just got a 2023 this sunday brand new. How do i know my bike is affected or not ? Edit: Ok just progressed through the video and checked it through the honda website my bike doesnt have any recalls. Guess they fixed it
Sucks cause my 22 grom when it was new was making a bad noise. Year later, more people started having it, and now not everyone’s saying things like ‘it’s your chain’ etc... my dealer still not acknowledging hearing of anything. I knew right away it sounded like transmission bearing. I guess it’s something to do with 2nd gear/bushing being too tight, and then making a bad squeal in 5th. I know it’s just a grom, but I didn’t wanna have to split the cases. At least for a factory issue....
This is why you see so many new groms for sale on marketplace. Also, I think noise come on after that bushing heats up on a ride so it would be hard to catch on a test ride when buying used.
@@MirchiBoy I knew the 22s were gonna start popping up as soon as I started having the issue. I first had it on my first super long ride. I rode enough groms and bikes to know it’s not chain noise.
I’ve got a 23 and so far no noise, I’ve seen other guys in the forums and Reddit have luck switching to thicker oil. A lot of speculation as to what is causing it but no definitive proof as of yet. ( I’ve seen 4-5 that have had the noise torn down; bearings on those bikes were good. If mine goes I’m gonna throw a bigger crank in her and go big 😂
That's the problem with CNC machines, either tip of tool broke off but not bad enough to cause a fault in program or it wasn't set properly in the first place. Usually only a few hundred parts would be made before fault is found, depending on machine operator and if it's working 24/7 or just day/afternoon shifts. Not really anything new, I've seen it on Suzuki's and Yamaha's in the 80's Yamaha did find it was a new worker who hadn't been trained properly then put on part of production line he had no experience with. A single person was responsible for re-call of 500+ bikes The Suzuki piston issue with 1200 Bandit was quite well known, machine minder didn't notice drill bits broken so not drilling oil holes under oil ring, only 50 (or 90? I forget) bikes were actually affected but the press made it sound like it was every single one of them.
I do use electronic testing equipment but its is very rare. The stuff I use is proprietary to Honda. Again, rarely used to diagnose and issue. Manly used for ECU updates that Honda wants us to do. If something interesting comes up I will post it!
Hey names login I have a 2015 cbr300r and I have been have a problem shifting at times but I need help idk what it is bc I feel like the pads are good so I worry it’s the transmission please lmk if you could offer some help would be much appreciated
I think it is a great way for the industry to save money on wiring. It is the best way to have systems talk to each other seamlessly without delay. In theory it helps find issues quicker. Riders want all these cool details like ABS and Traction control with built in torque modes and electronically tunable suspension. Well, CAN-bus is what is required!
Honda seem to be making crap these days, I have a friend with a brand new NT700 and he's had nothing but trouble with it (water pump failure at 600 miles, leaking Radiator, dodgy electrics and a cheap and nasty chain from the factory), another friend has a Grom and it's broken down MORE often than his other friend's Chinese Grom clone!
You sir are a VALUE ADD to M/C Community and Society!!! INSANE TALENT!!!
Thanks man!!

Hi MotocycleMD what solvent do you use is it a barsol type? GREAT video!
Thank you for such detailed steps, I got one for 1 month and 500km on it, sure don't want to experience same issue😊
literally put a deposit on one today, safe travels!
Looking to buy the 2025 Honda CB300R, would be interested to hear if you have alot of problems with the CB300R. Got my subscription stay safe
Is this a 2019? I have a 2020 and think they fixed it by then
hello,
Was it a frequent problem on the CB300R models?
Was it more common to previous models 2018-2019 or is it still happening with those from 2022-2024
What was the mileage of this particular bike when you we're repairing it?
Thank you
Looking forward to hear some info on your well present question. Doing research to get a cb300r 2019

Glad you enjoyed it
I really do like your video's. I fully understand about time limited on repairs. That's a joke from honda I believe.
What year was the bike? 2022?
Where can i get that torque wrench?
Hi Cody, thanks for your videos - brilliant. Do you use any electronic testing equipment? perhaps a teaching video on how to use them?

shift drum stopper plate is what Honda calls it. shift drum stopper plate.
Great video! I have a CRF300L, have you heard if this issue has shown up on those motors? Thanks
Nope! Not at all. Similar motor but different
Where is your shop located?
Norfolk, Virginia!
What is your opinion on cannibus as it relates to motorcycle electrical systems?
They both sometimes result in smoke.
CAN bus or cannabis?

❤you make it look easy!😂
I think it is 6.4 hours for a technician that only does this motor every day.
Bingo. I think maybe after 10 of them I could squeak in 6.5hr. Which likely won't ever happen lol

They stopped making the NT700 in 2013... so, what are you talking about?
@@artofthereal NC750 I meant
@@simonspider What would you say is well made nowadays?
@artofthereal No idea mate, seems most stuff is the same, made in China and cost cut to hell...
I think they are riding on their reputation but in all fairness everything is increasingly shoddily built.
