Mountain biking videos and the things that make MTB fun. We mostly do downhill mountain biking for the jumps, technical, and fun of it. Sharing adventures, tips and tricks, and things that are generally neat or helpful with a few product reviews thrown in the mix. Usually products we use ourselves or think has a cool place in our sport. Come along and ride with us on the epic adventures and locations we find along the way!
Thank you for watching it! Green world is a really fun trail to ride. On Sunday we rode it again and came upon a number of family with small kids just having a blast. So cool to see!
@@eatsleeprace I will certainly keep these coming! Any specific topics you'd like to see yourself? Most of the content is just what I happen to be working on during the weekend. 😁
@@DoesItTrack For sure people appreciate the real world experience of a non pro rider. Too many test results of bikes, forks, shocks etc. in media that Joe Average wouldn't follow after riding the stuff on hometrails. Plus, "How To" vids in the quality shown are helpful for many and just fun to watch. So, give us your thoughts about stuff and show what and why you modify your bike.
@@eatsleeprace Love it! That I can do! I'm going to do one on the rear derailleur to increase the "crisp-ness" of shifts. Parts on the way, I'll get that one up this weekend. I greatly appreciate the feedback, please, please, keep it coming!
I've not run into that before. You should be able to see where you're lapping them on both the valve and the seat. Is there any pitting marks on either that would allow them to leak?
@@renejacques8288 I'd say it has to be leaking from somewhere else. Perhaps the seats themselves? I'm not sure. When you have the head out, with the valves closed, put water in there and see if it leaks past the valves. Then just look for where it's coming from. Sounds like you have something else going on to me but you know your setup. Let me know what you find out.
@@DoesItTrack I was hoping I could send a picture here. I looked at some valves w/ a magnifying glass and I see pits that are more pronounced along the upper and lower edges of the valve mating surfaces. Surprisingly the exhaust valves look better than the intake valves. The motor mating surfaces seem to look better than the valves'. Please reply.
@@renejacques8288 Sounds like you need more than just a valve lapping at this point. I'd suggest taking it to a machine shop and see if they can regrind the valves and seats. It may just be time for new valves. Good luck!
I could not agree more with what you said about taking a lesson. It was amazing how I learned and how much my confidence grew in 4-5 hours. Truly worth the money.
Hi , I used to be a automotive machinist in the 80s and 90s , you will find it easier to get that fat lapping stick turned down alot thinner to a smaller diameter and concave shape where hold it ,also some head stands with some wood to get your valve vertical is nicer . Cheers
Green World was an awesome starting point for me as I worked my way from there through the blues then rainmaker and double jeopardy. Recent rock wreck with broken ribs had me walking the rocks on double jeopardy…
You saved me $1650 and perhaps a replacement of the whole vehicle! The mechanic quoted me $1700 for the whole job, including replacing the crossover pipe. I picked up gaskets for $50 and my son and I did the job in a couple of hours! Thanks so much!
This is great! I gotta get one on my ERP SS. I was just thinking about having one the other day when I was riding for the exact same reasons as you said. Pulling the brake sensors made sense, but so did leaving the kickstand and tilt sensors. Eventually they're going to start getting in the way and this will alleviate the fear of crashing and having a runaway. Thanks for posting it!
Had my intake gasket set ready and my Clymer manual open. Figured Id watch one more video before I started to tear this colossal piece of shit apart. Barley broke a sweat using your cheat code. I hope you win the God damned Billion dollar power ball brother.
