@adrianlowe3522 5 лет назад

Glad you showed us the state of the bearings, and being thorough, it shows it's worth the effort

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Too right my friend, on so many occasions we hear people suffer a bearing collapse, but there were no tell tale symptoms, I'm honestly surprised that wheel bearings are not a long term service item that should be replaced on a periodic basis... 5yrs would be fine for a daily used bike, but even if they advised it every 10yrs, it would still be good advice, just on spec, because look what you can find when you yank them out!

@emsbikestories2491 2 года назад

I've never done much more to a bike than lube and adjust the chain, but watching your detailed videos is encouraging me to do a full check/rebuild of my 03 busa! Will binge watch all your busa vids, create a massive buy list and go wild. Might even record so others can laugh at me online! Thanks a lot for your vids!!

@nicholasknibbs8162 5 лет назад

I really appreciate the methodical way you show and explain these vital jobs, keep on greasing, great job.

@jasonshortphd 3 года назад

I completely agree with the sentiment that a used bike is an unknown quantity. I got a used 2014 Tiger where the previous owner told me he dropped it in a river and parked it for multiple years. So I am going all the way down just like you are doing. I’ve never done them before, but thanks to your videos I feel comfortable doing them. And I am having a BLAST doing it. I never thought I could have this much fun working on a bike.

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Learn so much from these videos. It's almost a zen like experience seeing you demonstrate to us how all those hidden jobs that seem impossibly hairy, can be done. I'm finally starting to learn that proper maintenance is slightly more than stripping the fairings off and giving everything a good clean. I particularly appreciate the pride and care you take, making best of everything at your disposal. Your channel is almost as good as having you live next door - only difference is that I'm not leant by your garage door offering cups of tea and asking lots of questions! Good stuff

@ronmimnaugh7674 5 лет назад

Gotta say that this is a great learning project for us that don't do this on a regular basis. Doing all of those bearings just makes sense when you don't know how it was taken care of in the past. Judging by the shape of that one, you made the correct call. I love the design part of these builds, but will never do that. This keeps me interested in the projects

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Thank you Ron, it's an honour that you find these videos useful, it's just basic stuff, but baffling if you've never seen it, or done it, as you can see, there's not much to it, and that goes for the costs too, hope you stick around for the creative bit, because it's gonna very daft and lots of fun... but just gotta take care of business first, so I can rest assured that this bike won't assassinate me !

Great video Del. You change your bearings because you are conscientious. It's your bike and you do not have to defend silly comments or questions. Who could ever argue against changing them if you don't know the bikes history. It is always safer to change them Vs not changing them. Great work Del.

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

You are absolutely right my friend, but you know ho it is with the trolling peanut gallery, you'd hand them a cure for the common cold and they'd say it's dangerous... we don't focus on the negatives, they'll always be there, but with the bearing in that state, this time it was worth a mention and to show the answer to their stupid question, rather than say it. Thanks for your support mate!

@OlderShadowRider Год назад

As always, most informative video for us old guys lol. But seriously, thank you for taking the time to do this one, really. I was going to get my rims powder coated (my treat for birthday), but when I took the wheels off and brought them to a friends place, he said it would be too much to do (no tools). So I though that was it, but decided after two weeks to do it. So I had the bearings popped out (not as good as your way, will have to invest in a pully) and my rims are getting powder coated a flat gold. Bearings ( seals/bearings on order) should be here in a week or so. Then I can start putting the bearings back in, going to try your idea of putting them in, I do believe you can teach an old dog new tricks.

@Moonfleet41 Год назад

Great news buddy, sometimes jobs just won't get done because they're a lot of work, but when you get stuck in, there's not much to it, it's just nuts and bolts and once it's all back together and looking great, you'll be glad you did it... have fun and good luck!

Great job Delboy! FYI, how you test a bearing of that type is rotate it UNDER LOAD! It might feel fine just spinning it unloaded but when you apply pressure you will feel if it's chowdered and rough

@Moonfleet41 4 года назад

Dead right mate, I think the term is rumble, it's the first indicator you can hear in your car if you've got a bearing on the way, you hear the rumble inside while driving and the offending wheel will be hotter to the touch than the others... thanks for your input mate.

I'm not even going to keep it, but for peace of mind I and safety of the new owner. These jobs are a must. Thankyou for all your advice, you've helped me alot with my own projects. Keep up the good work 🏍👍

Wise words and sound actions my friend, covering your back and taking care of the new owners safety is a sterling and noble attitude, one that maybe a few more sellers should consider adopting, having seen some of the crap that gets sold as 'good condition' ...

@stephenmitchell8324 5 лет назад

Hi Del nice work as always

@marcusFZ6 5 лет назад

Little tip and one that I use at work is stick your bearings in the freezer over night. This will reduce the size by a "smidge" and will help to fit the new bearing. I got lots of applications like this where the outer race is the Transition fit and the inner race is top end clearance so that the shaft effectively slides through. Doesn't all work but sometimes it's just the ticket. Great work and well played changing those brgs - well buggered. People forget that if something goes wrong on a bike, not going to end nicely - peace of mind is everything.

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Hi Marcus, Yes, there is no denying that the good old "Freezer Ploy" is a well tried and tested method... but personally i have always questioned the practice of effectively "freezing" hardened steel parts, and then forcing them into a warm or heated metal hub....the sudden instant change in temperature must cause a heat shock?, that can't be good for the steel and must have some effect on it like quenching hot metal.?? no?.. maybe not, and maybe im paranoid.. but as they press in so easy like this, im happy working at room temp for now... thanks again for your input buddy, have a good week...

@petethemod1 4 года назад

I had the real wheel bearing explode on my Fat Bob a couple of years back. The bike was only 5 years old with 8000 miles on the clock. I was going down my local By-pass at the time, and had just slowed down from 70+ mph. I was just exiting off one of the roundabouts doing around 40mph. When without any prior warnings or odd feel, the back end just seemed to collapse. At 1st I thought it was a blowout. Fortunately I was only just over a mile from home and was able to limp home at around10mph. Which in turn sort of welded the remains of the bearing to the wheel. What a hassle it was to remove, fortunately the damage to the hub was repairable. All in all, a scary experience!!

Great vid as usual mate. 'might help those of you with old bikes'... Mine's less than four years old and looks about the same after year-round use and 55K miles! Even with regular maintainence, I think if you've a high mileage, daily rider then you're going to end up with a certain amount of 'patina' around the bike! I had a carrier bearing blow on mine a few years back and that was OEM on 20-something thousand miles. Just a messy paste left behind when I pulled it all apart.

Of course Adam, you're dead right, Life use and mileage can pay a heavier toll on a bike that age alone... Great to hear you ride hard core all year round too, its incredible how much your skills on the road will improve riding through winter aye..
