Classic Suzuki with a DANGEROUS PROBLEM 

I could watch a 20 minute video of this guy trouble shooting a toaster

Hey, that gentleman in black looks an awful lot like me!

Before I watch, I'm saying ground or switch. Carb could be a little crud in the pilot or need a different needle position.

hey all the way from sweden

You have lots of eggs and lots of baskets. Use them all. As any good carburetor channel would. BTW I heard the Bearded Mechanic say he has rebuilt more motorcycle carbs than anyone on youtube. hmmm

Why aren't you charging people for repairs..and NO YT. Pay us crap..unless you have a few million subs or more then the tax situation gets interesting.

Flux paste is your friend.

The only critique of your electrical work I can suggest is to turn your wire strippers around so the flat side faces out specially with older wires with hard plastic. By using the diagonal side of the strippers to pull the outer plastic off you are putting pressure on the wires by forcing the plastic against the wires, this can also cause you to lose some strands of the wire. Turning the strippers around so the flat side is facing out takes the pressure off the outer casing of the wire, makes it a lot easier to remove and very rarely if ever takes strands of wire with it. Some people will say that this leaves an ugly diagonal cut of the plastic as opposed to a clean looking flat cut but the up side is the diagonal cut helps seal the wire from the elements and 99% of wires will either get some sort of covering and you will never see the ugly cut anyway. Another upside is that when you soldering wires that thin diagonally cut plastic will heat up and give a better seal where the solder runs down to the plastic. And for those that still don’t like the ugly cut of the diagonal side then do a initial cut with the flat side in and turn the strippers around so the flat side faces out to relieve pressure from the wires and make it easier to remove the plastic outer.

I always struggled with soldering. Then I started using flux. You need flux to solder, it is a serious gam changer.

My brother had a Suzuki 400 with the same paint job. That bike has clearly been taken care of.

Don't rely on the flux in the core of your solder alone. Like the man said, "Flux is Your Friend". Also, try not to use lead free. Lead, outside your body, is your friend, in solder.

Still one of my favorite channels, always happy to see an upload from you two!

Awesome!!! Real people helping people. No charge just happy to help others. Cheers:):):)

Camera Girl legs at the end. You know your audience! lolol. Keep up the good work my friend!

"Very nice", points camera at legs. I see what you did there, Jen.

My favourite RU-vid channel, always an entertaining educational watch keep it up

My Favorite This Is Not A Carburetor Channel, Easy Fix. I Bet The Neutral Bulb Is Burned Out.

That is so satisfying watching you successfully find that intermittent electrical problem. You and Camera Girl are the BEST!! 🧙‍♂🧙‍♀❤🙏 Happy Holloween! 🥧🏍🎃

That's some quick detective work Jake and Jennie! And that was just the right amount of complaining.... not to much, not too little.

2vintage is very successful fixing old dirt bikes and atv's and putting the vids on YT. And he keeps everything so double score. You got mad skills, so...

Y'all are awesome, and so is that brush you used! That bike is freakin' knarly man. I love it!

"That's a great story" Jennies catch phrase...another great video , nice work!!!

Trying to understand how a brake/tail light might be an easy problem... 🤔

I think thats a nice idea a repair shop no doubt if you build it people will come. Great video

Dang. It’s 2:30 am and I was planning to go to sleep and Jennie’s Garage drops a new episode.

Adding customers repairs is a good idea, IMO.

Very very nice camera lady.😊

Forever the best carburetor channel to exist.

First, love the Channel

Loving the frequency! Thanks JG!

A clean solder connection is a strong one!

You need to make money. You have a following. Open a store or get some sponsors

Why you dont have a option for membership for your channel, i would like to support it

Longer video please

I wanna buy a hat!

13 minutes long....Wow, you're getting pretty crazy now.

I bet the water heater flue is triggering the HVAC crowd the last few videos. 🤭

cool video !

Nice job on soldering, done correctly. I've seen so many guys try to drop hot solder on a cold wire, they have no idea 😅 Another entertaining video from Jennies Garage.

Nice Weller PU81 I would guess not your off the shelf chinisium product. Gemanish goodness. Can't go wrong.

I spy a new air compressor? Told ya every shop needs one. I got one for about 20 bucks, fixed it and she still runs after years of use.

I just found your channel again after several years!!! Very exciting and I am now subscribed as I should have been!! Great content.

love the channel just wish they are longer

Awesome little bike, also like the RV 125 and RV 90's. Probably a bulp for the neutral light, or corrosion with that broken glass. Carb jet or air restrictions for the blogging?

how different are the 1970 and the 1974? I have inherited a yellow ts250 with 6k miles on it and wonna fit her running

I looked at my 1970 Yamaha DT1 250 light switch funny and it slapped me right across the face with its mirror. "Wha' Choo Lookin' At!" It said. We became close after that, until I had to put it down. (Too bad. One went to auction recently and fetched a whopping $27,000).

You break the on/off switch off to stop you accidentally turning the lights off pointlessly going from main to dip! I had one of these in the 70s :-)

Excellent video as always! Great job on the diagnosis and repair. I just had to add a comment, because my second dirt bike in life was a 1969 Suzuki Savage - very similar to Evan's bike, but mine was totally stripped down (except for a speedo). I was 15, and it was time to move on from my Honda 160. The Suzuki was a bit of a unicorn - the guy I bought it from had set up a twist grip on the left hand handlebar to activate the compression release (unlike the little short compression release levers that the bikes had in that era). I got used to it and just left it that way. Evan's appears to be in great shape. Thanks for posting! You guys are awesome! Congrats on the new house too!

I have a 2000 honda cbr 600 f4 carbureted that I would pay to have you work on. Idk where yall are in the country but I am in eastern SD

Love you guys and your dialogue its fab!!Big love from Swansea Wales😊

I have been wanting a cream puff enduro just like that one--they are rare as can be in Eastern WA. I am bad at troubleshooting electrics so I like learning as I watch your channel. I predict a clogged jet in the carb.

Just curious, what is the tax rate on RU-vid videos and property tax in Cali now? Does it burn up the points leaving the power on?

Your repair worked just fine so this isn't a critique more than it is an opportunity to discuss. When you fanned out the strands and wire wheeled them, I probably would have just cut further back and used a butt connector to splice in a small piece of new wire. It wouldn't have looked as clean as your repair, but it may have been electrically stronger. When you were first diagnosing it was looking like the light wasn't getting enough voltage. I'm worried the corrosion in the wire spells that something like this is still going on and/or will happen again in the future.

tip: You really should use a bit of flux on your solder joints. It pulls solder into clean joints with less heat used and much less chance of getting a cold solder joint.

The Ofer still stands on my Yamaha 125, not asking for a new or restored condition just up and running from when it was put up and running.

Kester 186 is a must have for soldering

I not sure if this guys a friend of yours but I would be careful who you bring to your house. Meet somewhere neutral.

Love these vids! Funny, informative and weird at times!😅

So awesome to see a new Jennie’s garage. Been a long day here in my for sure . 5 inches of rain so far. Always love me some Jennies garage.

Can I come and stay with Jennies? I can make the tea 🇬🇧❤️

Sometimes it’s the simple things like a loose connection 👍 good job

Wohoooo new video

Just to remind us this is not a CARB Channel

What do you use the spray and wash for?

Do not get a job and ruin the vibe, you are entertainers.

Is the GT bmx bike for sale?

Trouble with having soldered connections on something that vibrates a lot is over time, said solder cracks and breaks loose, it's why they tend to crimp connections, they're less prone to such issues... :)

Bigger the blob the better the job!

My first real motorbike was a Suzuki 750 GSX from the early 1980's. It was a beautiful thing and ran like a dream too, but was traded in many years ago when I bought my first BMW in the GSA family. I am 60 next summer but still own and happily ride my curent BMW, which is one of the early partially liquid cooled R 1200 GSA's, so about 10 years old now but still looking and running as if it was brand new.

I just starting watching your vids I love them I just got an old Kawasaki

Good work Sir

Wow that guy loves playing to the camera. So weird

Good idea I would pay you!

Great job ! ................

Love a new Jenny video

he looks stoned 🤣😂

I was relieved that you didn't pull out a soldering GUN. IYKYK .... and you knew.

Let's goo :) thanks for the upload ❤️

The thing now for making money on RU-vid seems like sponsorships. Other automotive channels I watch get sponsorships from tool companies, oil companies, etc.

great job!!!

Nice bike

The good ole reach around usually finds some unsespecting surpises

good one

Hi Evan

Looks promising

Yessss!

woho🎉

I want proof that you’re not a liar so prove you own your home!😂😂😂

Camera girl laughing at any joke, good for the video 😅
