The clamp thingie on the rear break pedal was cool. I had to get into all sorts of contorted shapes to change the fluid on my Sportster and reach the pedal.

@matthewfox3760 4 года назад

I recommend running the fluids at the proper level... bleed some fluid out the same way that you did for the flush before adding new pads... then proceed to fill the reservoir back to the proper fill level. Or better yet take care of the pads now. This only makes sense to be able to reference the factory marks.

Go ahead and accuse me of being a cheapskate but last year I switched to Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 motorcycle oil to save a little money. I had been using Castrol. With the help of your video on the subject, I installed progressive shocks and springs at about the same time. The ride is considerably more comfortable now with less hammering of the spine under most road conditions. My first motorcycle, a Honda Super 90, was equipped with drain plugs on the bottom of the fork. It made changing fork oil a breeze. I wish it was that easy with the Trumpet.

Pity no one thought to hinge that bash plate up one side of it's length, (couple of pinch bolts to hold it 'shut' etc.) it's only really there to stop rocks going in, not rods coming out, so having it 'burst' proof both ways is slight overkill - even for a Tri . . . .

Why you pulling the seals out of a brand new oil filter before fitting it?

It only drops in to a slot and it's beneficial to get some oil in behind it and then re-install it, which all helps to seat it perfectly when you install the filter.

Hi Del it's a service that you are doing for guys like us world wide. It's always a joy watching you work. It's like watching a meticulously planned surgery. Del I have a query as I live in India and sourcing parts for the bonnie is a big procedure, can I use a matching oil filter that runs on a suzuki 1lt 16 valve DOHC engine. The dimensions of the filter are identical and it costs one tenth of the ttiumps

@Moonfleet41 3 года назад

Hi Prasad, I hear this a lot with India, it's a real shame you don't have a better parts back up over there... What you're suggesting is sound thinking, and yes indeed oil filters are pretty universal, provided the fittings are the same... the Bonneville's actually use a very short filter, so that it doesn't hang down below the frame rails (being mounted under the engine), and then it can't scrape on the ground, or a kerb, or get hit by rocks and be torn open... so if you are using a filter with the same fittings, that fits on cleanly, then make sure it is the same height as a canister and doesn't hang down below the frame rails.... then it should be fine.

@prasadk5125 3 года назад
