Thank you. Your literally the first person that explained the process correctly for anything I've watched. Normally they always skip a step here or there and it kills what they were trying to explain. Thanks again brother man.
You look like a super chill guy... This world could use a lot more of that.
Alec is most chill.
Omg that lattice fairing is beautiful!
Thank you guys for making another great video. One thing that attracted me to your brand/ store is how thorough you guys are. Real professionals at what you do. And I appreciate you guys sharing your knowledge. For a rookie bike tinker it is reassuring to have a place to look to for knowledge and inspiration and to know that the info you are getting is top notch. Thanks again. Keep em coming.
I love it when someone get it. 💋
Excellent video Alec, I wish I had known this about a year ago, but it's cool to know you sell kits. Keep up the good work.
I didn't want to splash out for a solder pot so I used a ¾" steel pipe cap from the hardware store and I melt the solder in the cap with a MAP torch while it's sitting on the grill outside. Love that birdcage tool!
Great in depth as always guys 👌🏼
Kick ass video!! Please excuse my French. This is how it's done.
Tried getting shops to do a set for me, and you got a DIY kit with video. Very happy with first custom job.
awesome job explaining this, helped me
Glad it helped!
This was good to see.. Been thinking about getting this kit for my '75 Ironhead project .. Need custom length throttle cables ..
Great video! Thanks for posting this.
Great video guys, well done, I learnt a lot. Keep up the good work.
These videos are awesome. keep it coming!
I spy a CB360 motor in the background! my first bike build :)
Perfect video
thanks beste
Fantastic job
👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷
Thanks for the great video. You've made a fan and loyal Custer out of me. What is the crimp.tool that you use? Does it have to be a special tool for cable housings... The style of crimper in the video looks like ones I've seen used to crimp on battery cable lugs, is that right? Also... Is it necessary that it be hydraulic? Thanks!
How did you add the adjusters? do they need to be crimped on???
These are not crimped on because they need to be able to turn when making adjustments. Rather, you trim the cable housing so that you have two pieces and you insert this inline. If you built your cable the correct length then you'll be able to expand the adjuster to take up any slack in the cable and that tension will hold the adjuster in place.
Hi very nice video, I did just like you did same solder, same solder pot, flux, sand the cable, cleaned the cable use bird cage but when I dip the cable the solder it just isn't staying on the wire any advice on what am I doing wrong? Or what I should improve? Cheers
Hey Kurt, is the cable stainless? Or is it a used cable? Stainless requires a different solder and higher temperatures while an old cable often won't work due to oil contamination
I need a mechanic book and stuff for an old kawasaki 550LTD 1980 ????
The throttle an brake kit won't work on a evo motor ..of just the clutch kit..?
The Evo Clutch cables have a specialized, threaded adapter that seals against the engine case because the clutch cable enters below the oil level line. If you use our cable kit, you'll leak oil from the point of cable entry. VenhillUSA.com has an Evo specific cable for you.
@@RevivalCycles yeah I know that thanks ..that's why I was wondering if the throttle an brake cable would work yall got ..thank ..
So in fact you need several special tools which, if you are only doing one bike every so often, it will cost you loads more than order a pre-build custom cable ?!
Being professionals, we teach the correct method for making cables. You can in fact make due without special tools.
Excellent Tech Talk, but what about a joke once in awhile?
Sorry, royalties for a laff box were out of the budget. We're working out the perfect blend of infotainment to maximize viewer retention. Still dialing it in.
This is a tech talk , not a stand up comedy act .pfffttt
For real who says nipple this many times without at least a giggle. Wetting cable, nipple crevices, soldered nipple, and for Gods sake wash your hands.
That's not true, If there is grime inside you can't solder? no way, Just use acid flux. And wash after
