Excellent video! No inane chatter, no DRM-free “music”, just happy wrench noises and valuable on-screen text. Well done!

@FrogsAngelsLondon Год назад

Thanks

@jimf3253 4 года назад

Thanks for this. Sometimes it's not about the money but about being able to repair things rather than replacing them (when it's safe to do so). I started repairing my own bikes back in the 70's and at times had to invent tools to access certain parts and build or modify pieces to hold it all together. Anybody who had a Norton back then knows what I'm talking about. To me, It's a great way to get to know the bike and how everything works. Please keep these videos coming.

@FrogsAngelsLondon 4 года назад

It is exactly that Jim. Glad someone understands the purpose of that video clip. It is not about money. I like to look after my bike and to repair it myself gives me great satisfaction. Always prioritises safety obviously. Thanks for the positive comment.

Of cause this is a repair VDO. Good idea on using the permatex as the rubber filler.

@FrogsAngelsLondon 4 года назад

Still bonding really well after a year of use. This is surely a very good repair solution. Some will say why repair it when you can change it and vice versa? Up to anyone's decision really...

@krisdadabmetha1899 4 года назад

Frogs Angels London Totally agree, I wonder why people still commented about replace in repair VDO.

@Bigfish92084 3 года назад

at minute 34:00 when attaching the plastic and wires on that support bar. I damaged my support bar and wondering if its fairly simple to replace? I noticed I will need to buy a new encapsulated bolt but what about the other end? Could it be as easy as supporting the Final drive and removing the two bolts and installing new part with encapsulated bolts? Great video by the way. Makes me almost feel like I could do it. Thanks!

Nice workmanship! I did replace the front boot on my 07 GSA with the swing arm in place, but it was headache. Would it have been easier to do the boot repair in place? I was tempted to do the repair in place but I was up for maintenance and decided to just replace it at the at time.

@FrogsAngelsLondon 3 года назад

I still have the repaired one on my bike since I've done the video and no apparent cracks anywhere. It works a wonder. 👍

@stevasil 4 года назад

Great job, thanks for sharing. Just a question though that came to me by watching your video. Since I'm about to replace mine, and I've already purchased the new gaitor, do you think it is a good idea that I apply some of this silicone on the new gaitor, outside and inside so I kinda make it more durable ? Needless to say that I will repair the old one and keep it for spare.

@FrogsAngelsLondon 4 года назад

Cheers buddy. If you are getting a new one then don't bother with the silicone paste. I had very small cracks on mine and they were not deep enough to replace the gaitor. A new one will last you a good few years. This flexible silicone compound is holding well on mine. If it deteriorates over time then I will replace it obviously Time will tell but so far so good. Hope it helps with the maintenance of your bike. 👍

@RumorHazi 4 года назад

Just curious, why would you not replace the boot? $70 seems high but I would think the boot would be a replacement item after 11 years due to dry-rot?

@FrogsAngelsLondon 4 года назад

Hello GSRider, it's not about money. It's about saving our precious earth with plastic waste. Why would you throw it away when you can repair it and go for another 5 years with it? Every little helps!!!

@danielribera2484 3 года назад

The idea is good if you are in Cuba or in the middle of the Paris-Dakar Rally and you don't have spare parts, but we are in Europe; the continent of sin, excesses and waste. How much can a rubber of these cost, even if it is not original from the brand? How much do you think you will have to do that again?

You found the answer yourself mate. Done for fellow riders stuck in the Gobi desert. How about that?

more emissions have been emitted and more waste produced by making all of those products that you used to repair it. Replacing it with new injection moulded rubber piece would be a far more eco friendly solution if that was your main concern.

I have bmw r nine t excatly that rubber cracked and need replace new one cost 50 euro from dealer and probaly cost lots changing in dealer. I am gonna do myself but seem not easy gs model without removing all swingarms replace possible but r nine t frame arms more close eachother only option have to remove all. I respect what you do fixing rubber but buy the black slicone and glue will cost with shipping more than 30 euro so for me i dont see an advance to fix rubber. unfortunately I will buy new and diy change.
