CBR 1000 Engine Teardown | How to Rebuild a CBR 1000 Engine | Crankcase Tear Down | Knocking Noise 

Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed

Yes and no... the 08 plus is actually a bit different. All same basic concepts but I believe the cylinders are independent of the cases on 08+ (might be wrong on that) but i do know the transmission comes out when the case is split not out the side like this one. All that being said, I'm betting you have a valve issue on the head of your zero compression cylinder. Unfortunately, I didn't dig into the valves on this engine, so you won't find that here.

@The.Odyssey appreciate the advice. Mechanic is handling the tear-down, and I know it won't be exactly the same, but I have an idea of what it entails. Great guess, I believe it is also a valve issue on the head. It's disappointing since I dropped my bike off three weeks ago so I could attend Biketoberfest over the weekend, and she is still in the shop! Why did I originally take her in? Replace the front bearings!!! Can't make this stuff up. 😎

@The.Odyssey once again appreciated your advice and just reviewed several valve adjustment videos. Thanks again! 😎

I have a friend of mine that is GIVING me a whole nother engine for an 06-07 CBR1000RR, and thinking of doing a bore over and possibly a mild build.

Thank you! Im proud of how this video came out. It was sucking me in while editing. There is more to come... I'm currently working on a video of using plastigauge to check oil spec on the new bearings. After that it will be reassembly of the engine video and then reassembly of the bike and first start. Takes many hours to make the videos flow like this.

Thank for the feedback, it's great to hear how much people are enjoying these! Happy fathers day to you too.

Hi your Honda CBR 1000 pp 2004 does it make an oil consumption, thank you for the information, and if you know anything more about the topic tell me thank you for what

My odyssey is actually the off road odyssey (1985 FL350) thanks for watching and the comment! Love hearing from people

Thanks for watching man!

I didn't have any music in there? I go back and forth with it, usually to cover sped up video that I want to show.

@@The.Odyssey Yeah I know, That's the way I like mechanic videos. Riding videos maybe a bit different. You're doing a good job..

Thank you!

That's great that I was able to help! Unfortunately I don't have the last videos completed yet to show reassembly. But if you have any questions please let me know. Important points to be sure about is condition of the crank on the journal with the bad bearing and bearing selection. I actually still need to put together content for that as I will be showing the charts in the service manual and how to select proper bearings as there are different sizes. It can be a little confusing. Don't hesitate to reach out if I don't complete the videos before you need them or if you have any questions either way.

@@The.Odyssey I appreciate your response and help, I am at the moment of choosing the new bearings but the information is a little bit confusing, and i don't know if the crankshaft needs be polished.

@@fabianrangel9801 I measured the lobe on the crank and could tell it was out of round so i replaced it. I also put the rod back together and measured it to find the same thing. Crank and rod were replaced. There are letters on the case that are half the puzzle on your main bearing selection. Then there are letters on the crank that are the other half of the main bearing and half the puzzle for the rod bearings. Rods also have letters and numbers I believe it was which are the other half of the puzzle for the rod bearings. The service manual has charts to look up which bearings you need with that info. Even after using this I still checked to make sure my oil clearances for the bearings were in spec with plastigauge. Being that I replaced the crank I also did all the bearings (main and rod) If you need the charts let me know and I will find them. I'm assuming you are already working with the service manual, I couldn't find an 07 manual so I worked out of the 04 and had no issues with that. You do want to be sure that the crank and rod are good, if you spun a bearing there is a good chance that there is damage there, especially if it was ran for any amount of time once it developed the knock.

Did the bike run sweet after the repair?

@@bigjam8429 yeah, ran great!

You're welcome, and thanks for watching!

Awesome to hear! I'm getting so much positive feedback on this. Please subscribe if you haven't and share with people that might need it.

@@The.Odyssey i am subscribed to your channel and follow up.

Let me know how you make out!

Did you get a look at the pickup tube?

@@The.Odyssey Yeah, it's all clear, the strainer is not clogged too.

You're welcome! Reassemble video to come as well.

Is it a locater pin for the cover?

Got an electronic copy?

@@The.Odyssey These might be the ones, look for the mods around the main bearing webs, the pump kit is not described, but its the only kit hrc still sells for the earlier bikes.

You will need a new head gasket and the rest is sealer. I recommend motoseal. Have you downloaded the manual? The manual recommends (actually demands) replacing all the crank and connecting rod bolts. Are you replacing both case halves? This may be troublesome to source unless you find a used set. I wish I had the rest of these videos completed for you, but I have days of editing ahead to have a finished product (or products rather) and just don't have the time right now. Shoot me an email and give me your number cryptosaulszee@gmail.com so I can discuss your next steps with you and help you with some direction.

@@The.Odyssey dude my bad. I tried sending u a message then realized later I didn't put Gmail. I put Gnail. Then after that I spelt it wrong. Omg. Anyways I think I finally sent u a message to the right email. I so was not ignoring u or idk but I def was trying to reach u like right away so

I have the footage but haven't edited it. Look for the service manual, I believe it was 2004 that covers this one too. It has charts in it to choose the bearings. That's what I did to this but I changed the crank and 1 rod as well.

Yes, I use the service manuals. I was never able to find an 07, I used the 04 manual. I get a lot from manualslib but I don't see it on there. If you just Google the bike, year and term service manual you can usually find them.

thx but here's a question? what if my bike is a 2023 gxr ?? does 07 or 04 manuals apply ?? what if i need the 2023 manuals?? is there any source i can get the service manuals if its needed??@@The.Odyssey

No, 2004 - 2007 CBR 1000 engine is mostly unchanged. Different porting / timing and whatnot. Outside of some different physical parts in place of others they are the same. There is probably an appendix service manual made for the later years as things like the head would be different because of the different porting. Bikes generally run in generations of 3 or 4 years between major changes. Sometimes less time, sometimes more.

Did all your coils (spark plug caps) fit tight? I've broken a spring that engages with the top of the plug before and had similar symptoms

12 point, I believe it was a 10mm

@@The.Odyssey perfect,Tearing the pistons out mine now. Thanks alot for the quick response and the good video!

@Jonathan Tomlin you're welcome and thanks for watching. If you have any questions along the way hit me up

@@The.Odyssey yes sir!! I’ll be sure to reach out! Thanks again

So I do have a question. How do I get the correct orientation for the connecting rods going back on pistons. Followed what the manual says and it’s backwards to how it was?

It took about 4 hours to tear down but I was video taping so it takes a little longer. Reassembly was about 6

Personally I use semi synthetic, not sure what was used in it before I got it with the spun bearing. Full synthetic will give the best protection, if it was something I was racing I would be running full.

@@The.Odyssey i have sticky clutch and i use 7100 motul does that oil cause that problem with sticky plates? Honda say in manual dont use with molybedum

That shouldn't cause an issue. I'm not sure of you can see the basket through the fill hole in the engine on this bike or not but if you can I would see if there are groves worn in on the basket, that will cause the clutch to drag which is what I think you are describing here. (Clutch doesn't fully disengage and bike creeps in gear with the clutch pulled)

You can't turn it? Make sure the gear shifting cam and forks are not out of place. Try rotating the cam while holding them in place and see if everything moves. You will have to turn the primary shaft here and there to help.

@@The.Odyssey everything still fine untill i start to tighten the lower right bolt of the transmission cover .

@Allfreeshop are you pulling it in with the bolts? Get it to fit flush first then add the bolts. My other 2 thoughts are something is not hitting a bearing correctly or there is a spacer in the wrong place or wrong direction on something you may have took apart. For instance on the outside of the plate on the gear shifting cam there is a T bushing that goes 1 way not the other. (Parts diagrams will help check this)

@@Allfreeshop follow up question. What is the reason the engine was disassembled.

@@The.Odyssey thank you so much , I'll try tomorrow and then message you about the results.

Thanks 👍🏻

Any parts worn beyond or close to their service limit should be changed. But used parts are completely fine as long as they are good used parts.
