You just drove by my property (minute 2:27), Martins Creek @ New Martins Creek, stunning road, I call it a Minnie Me Tail of the Dragon, curves and switchbacks all over, cold as fuck in winter, rain, fog, etc. keep eyes open, heavy wildlife population crossing the road, be safe out there.
Any body else notice that the guy pulling the wheel is not the same guy who's channel this is? Why do you keep referring to yourself doing the work when clearly it's not? Anyway, very informative video no matter who actually did the work.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON BOTTOM BEARING: PUT THE SEAL IN BEFORE YOU PRESS THAT BEARING IN OTHERWISE YOULL HAVE TO BREAK THE BEARING AND BUY A NEW SET. THE SEAL IS VERY IMPORTANT...I FORGOT THE SEAL BEFORE THE BEARING AND HAD TO BUY AND DO IT AGAIN...😅
Hey buddy do you press the bearing to the triple tree down down or do you leave a little gap between the triple tree and the seal with the bearing? Cause i saw that if you do press it flat all the way down its difficult for the bearing to turn? Please advise
@@angrypeach1398 That info is not correct. Stiffness in turning is caused by too much torque on the nut. If you leave a gap that gap will turn into slop in the steering after the first wheelie.
When I pressurize the line then Crack the bleeder valve I get a ton of air bubbles. I've run almost a entire bottle of brake fluid through the line, but I'm still getting the bubbles.
Two weeks ago we rode Cleveland Tn to Ducktown to Tellico Plains to Robbinsvilles to Ducktown, a twisty and beautiful ride, enjoy your rides and appreciate the video
Does it matter that my axle bolt goes the opposite direction? The nut is on the left side instead of the right. Is it worth removing the wheel to put it through the other way?
I ride that area yearly and going back up in a few weeks. I'm going to see can I locate Old 64. Looks like my kind of ride. Past year I stay away from the crazy Dragon Tail and such. Back roads are the best.
Thank you for sharing that area. I am looking at it on Google Maps now lol. I am not that far away from there. Have you rode in the area known as Devil's Whip? Buck Creek Rd ?
I never ride more than 100 miles from Murphy, NC... I have no need. All of the good roads are within 100 miles and I can sleep in my own bed and do it again in the morning.
Which side does the big spacer go on? (joking of course haha @8:56). Thanks for this video, this is something I generally had a shop do, but these days doing everything myself that I can. And I'm very soon to be due for new tires on my 848. That lift is awesome by the way. I want one of those.
Nope. I put a bike together the way it came a part. Not my bike. Not my place to question the owner.If you notice any bike I work on, the parts are on the sides they came off of.
Well, thankyou for this video. I learnt a lot and it took way longer than it should have. Learned some stuff, made a couple of mistakes. Great template, thankyou 🙏🏽👍🏾
Can you purchase the spring for this master somewhere? I also like to do things ptoperly when I do them and reusing a 12 year old spring in my master on my Multistrada seems dumb...
