Thank the Lord you aight bruh they do not pay attention at all thats why when i see oncoming traffic on my bussa i be flashing the lights with that pass button
Just what I needed, ordered a new Wilbers shock and springs/oil for the front a while back because I could feel the suspension was end of life. Today the rear shock gave up the ghost, had a proper bouncy ride home. Luckily the shock and springs are already in the mail, hopefully the Gen3 won't be too different from this and it'll be a quick fix :)
@@jesusballesteross.c.3538 have you looked at the speed limit sign and my gauges? Clearly I’m going under and started engine breaking before I got there. Stop being a keyboard warrior and pay attention to details.
@@jesusballesteross.c.3538 I was going under the speed limit to begin with, as I was approaching the intersection I slowed down just because how dangerous that intersection is. Wasn’t at fault, I had priority so I wasn’t doing anything wrong. Stop virtual riding for people and get out there in real life.
@@MotoRoUsa cool... never used them... I will have to look into them.... no chance for a lost weight sounds good to me! do you use them in the front too?
Hi, I am planning to do the same thing, but I think you can skip some struggle by simply removing the wheel fender and the tubes of the fork from triple clamp. Also, to install the bottom race you can invent some sort of press with a long big screw and sockets at the end, tighten a pulley on that screw will pull the bearings in? I also preffer wacking them but underneed there is a bit scary. At least your wobble without hands at low speed was gone after this? Thanks for video! I do the same and my "shop" looks the same. :D Edit:... a long screw with a big pulley at the end is the actual axle of the fork> :D
Yeah there’s methods to do it, I didn’t want to bother and I thought was a bit less of a struggle than what it was. Actually the wobble was gone, but I also changed the front tire. I’m sure it was a combination of both!
@@MotoRoUsa I did it today, I installed the all balls ones. I managed to remove the lower inner race by heating it and knock it with a chisel, little by little in 10mins it was out. Also thanks to your video I didn't forget to put the bottom seal!! :D. Yep, the PIA was to put the outer lower race in the frame neck. It took me 1-2h of swearing and a combination of hits with a large socket and the old race.. Also I invented some sort of press from one large puller I had around. The rest was easy peasy.. :D Thanks for the video, it was inspiring!
@@bogdanbelciu6242 glad you got it done! Yes it’s a pain in the ass sometimes but we gotta work with what we have lol. Suntem români până la urmă, trebuie să le rezolvăm lol
I got a 2007 Tmax 500 a few months ago as my first bike, I really like it. Just pull the throttle and go, I thought this would be good for learning until I get the balance and all that. I'll use it to pass my test and maybe get something different as it's not physically in the best shape due to it's age and heavy use and 50,000 miles but it's fine for learning and it's got more than enough power. Maxi scooters are not that popular here in Ireland sadly so it's hard to find a good one with low miles for a decent price.
I don't even think it's that. A lot of times things like this are done on purpose bc they assume you're a pos. Usually sport bikes are seen doing 120 weaving traffic.
Do you still have this Pack Mule? How do those pipe sound now with 2 years of season on them? I wish I could hear them on a Road test, Only Harley Guys do drive by road test someone needs to catch on out there with Jap bikes and do the same when they put pipes on their Scooters. Thx for the vid it was fun to watch
Thank you for the video. I do have a few questions. I see you just filled and capped your forks. Did you have any concerns about any air getting inside when you were filling it back up? I see some people have pumped the forks to “get the air out”. Do you know if you have the stock springs or not?
Some goldwings have schrader valves on top of the forks to add air pressure as well. I filled mine up with 5psi, it helps stiffen the suspension a little.
@@MotoRoUsa I just started working on replacing my oil and my bike doesn’t have the valves so I had to open it up to replace the oil. What I’ve found out is, it seems that it has progressive springs. I’m not too familiar with them but I can see it’s two springs. One longer than the other. To my knowledge, the stock Honda spring is only one spring then a spacer but…I could be wrong haha
@@adrianb1655 while you’re at it, research how to add the valves to the fork caps. Easy to do just drill and add the valve with a nut and rubber seal and you should be good. It’ll be easier to change the oil too since you don’t have to take the caps off just take the valves out of the stem
Basically I had a mid pipe from a Yamaha fjr ( 1 3/4” ) and I cut a piece to make the connection from collector pipe to the new muffler. The muffler bracket I made out of a piece of metal and I drilled the bar under the saddlebag and secured it with a bolt that way. Make sure the connector pipe you cut has a 45° angle so mufflers would be paralel with the bike and not flare out.
Yes, I had to because I didn’t want to mess with the treads… I thought it’s going to mess them up since the spacing is different on the sides… I suppose could’ve change the whole bolt to a different one but I kept it the way it was designed..
And that my friends is the man we should all respect as He's not immediately painting the bike or putting different exhaust but deals with issues that have to be addressed first. 👍 Cheers from 2001 FJR rider.
What they should’ve done is put the bolt from the other side ( left of the bike ) and nut from the right side where’s less access… that would make it much easier
