Great to see someone who knows so much about a specific motorcycle. Clearly years of experience. Impressive.

Interesting, simple but effective test to see if the crank is cracked. Thanks, always enjoyable and informative to watch

At the very beginning of the 1970s, my best friend in secondary school was given a BSA 350 single with a 3 speed gearbox and a hard tail frame. This is what I learned to ride on, if not maintain. We knew nothing about advancing or retarding the spark or flooding the carbie. And starting that bike really sorted the men from us boys. We had permanent skinned shins and bruised calves but those were some of the happiest days of my life 😊

Sometimes you want to work on a motorcycle. Sometimes, you want to watch someone else work on a motorcycle. Thanks so much for the opportunity to stand around in your garage. Close runner up to actual shop tour.... So cool brah. Love your channel and work. Shine on you diamond.

Yep, you are going to Mr Pearson out of retirement once again for a crank. I sold my Goldie in 1976 for £350. (Worth a bit more these days). Keep these videos coming, they are great to watch.

@philmuskett265 6 месяцев назад

Looks like you've got yourself a big job here, mate, but it's in good hands.

@roberthocking9138 6 месяцев назад

Wonderful video, that motor certainly needed to be refreshed. I can’t wait to see the restoration process and final result. It seems to have been running terribly rich to my eyes

Really enjoying this series, my Dad had one back in the day, I'm learning lots 🙂

Great work Dave did see this video pop up thursday evening. Saved for my day off with a coffee lush .

@classicraceruk1337 6 месяцев назад

I do enjoy a good tear down. I don’t think your customer will!!!!!! Hopefully the cleaning session won’t find to many things. My guess at the moment new piston and rings, new valve guides, new valves. A good clean up of the combustion chamber. Barrel a rebore. Plus the things you have already mentioned.

@richardbartlett6932 6 месяцев назад

This is the problem with the old stuff.nive been caught out twice buying older bikes which on tear down the repair cost makes it unviable. I now work on the assumption. "Its fooked until proven otherwise"

@jjrider6758 6 месяцев назад

Great stuff as usual Dave, made all the more impressive by the fact that it sounds like you either have, or are getting over, quite a nasty cold ! -

@bradkorando 6 месяцев назад

Excellent video! Too bad about the current condition of the engine. This is a good example of the benefits of having a qualified mechanic perform a teardown. At least the owner will have the assurance that the engine is ready for years of service when the work is complete. I'm looking forward to the next installment!

@michaelslorach4149 6 месяцев назад

Excellent tutorial

@jeroenboree4510 5 месяцев назад

Quite a lot of work needs to be done on the engine. Wouldn't it be a beter idea to by a brand new engine and throw it in the frame for many years of stress free riding? Reassamble the old (quite worn engine) and put it for display in the living room.

@453421abcdefg12345 6 месяцев назад

All looks a bit tired, but at least it still has the correct carb on it, some animals replace GP with a Mikuni or some other odd instrument.

@richardbartlett6932 6 месяцев назад

The carb is going to be replaced. 😂

@Cobra427Veight 6 месяцев назад

Hi Dave, do you have some specific bsa tappet spanners , or just some cheap sacrificial spanners and ground down the open end , not much room on my B33 .

@andyguy1981 6 месяцев назад

You've got end float on the crank because you removed the cush drive. All the B series cranks are retained by the drive side bearing arrangement.

Always enjoy watching your videos and seeing an experienced expert at work. One of my old biking mates from about 1969 had a DBD34. Was not nice to ride in traffic - as we all know - the RRT2 box etc. He sold it in the end (perhaps I should have bought it to keep as an investment) and bought a more practical bike to ride - a Triumph T100. As for me, my T110 was hassle free 😅. With a tear down like this, and the parts it needs, I’m nosey curious to have some idea on what sort of money the owner is going to have to cough up (probably literally). £1,000 would you say? And what about availability of parts for these old DB machines?

@user-dmr-s2g 6 месяцев назад

Great video as always very informative. A quick question what fuel taps do you recommend for classic British motorcycles 1/2" bsp, i purchased one but it leaks and has fallen apart in 10 seconds flat. Thanks Keep the videos coming.

@redtobertshateshandles 21 день назад

Not bad for a 60 something year old high performance single. They aren't making any more.

@daveco1270 6 месяцев назад

On these pre unit bikes is the Dynamo what generates the power and the magneto is where the points are? I get those two parts confused.

@richardbartlett6932 6 месяцев назад

Yes

@dogpaw775 6 месяцев назад

note to self: steer away from Goldies.

@mrbaz068 6 месяцев назад

I bought one and didn't know the crank was exactly the same as this, I definitely don't regret it though, it was expensive to fix but worth it, it's a fantastic bike to ride hard
