Lots of critics on here, I’ve built prob 50-60 Honda engines, and most of my builds have been aftermarket upper kits, and my boys ride them to death, no smoke, no rattled, carry on bro
@@vesselpowersports gotcha I was just wondering because I’ve always been told to get it to top dead center and then adjust…we’ll i guess I just learned something new
Great video, very informative but damn bro do you even believe in Torque specs. I cringed 😬 the whole time you were sending it with the impact. And you put way to much trust in them ring specs in that china kit. But again over all very informative.
All about your riding , I have 34,000 miles 2014 rancher 420 hard miles in rural Alaska kids beating the hell out of it , wide open ice road trips. And just now it’s starting to lose compression and the front end it tanked !!
@@sgtXsasquatchX yup, i have a 2017 rancher 420 with about 32,000 miles which i put in by myself and i do wide open throttle for going though snow and muds still running strong.
Honda and even the cheap-o aftermarket ring kits have a dot or a letter on the end of the ring end gap that indicates 'UP' on both upper compression rights. You should make a note of this because the rings are minutely shaped differently. Be sure to check next time. And.... what's with all these u-tubers spraying gasket goop on Honda gaskets? Was there goop on the gasket when you tore it apart? NO. Why do you think it needs goop on reassembly? Oh.... I get it.... cuz you went cheap-o and bought some knock off from China.
