    Just started watching your videos. I just want to make a point that when you’re bleeding the brakes you do not bleed the air out but leaving the bleeder screw open… every time you release the brake you’re allowing air into the system.. you need to pump and hold tension on the lever and then release bleeder and don’t let off the lever until you tighten the bleeder back up.. the front brake should not touch the grip as it still has air in the system..

    Tip: An easy way to pop those oil filters out is to get a pair of needle nose, stick them in the hole, and then open them up so they press against the inside of the hole, then just pull it out.

    get yourself a ultra sonic cleaner with carb cleaner in it. Some q-tips and aluminum polish work wonders on the needle and seat. You wont regret it. When you bleed brakes you either vacuum the fluid through the bleeder, or you push the lever with the bleeder open then let it up with the bleeder closed. Just pumping the brake with the bleeder open will draw air back into the caliper.

    Vinnie is going to be a Super Dog, and a Cardio Monster with all that running chasing those bikes and ATV's all his life. I use the Cratex rubberized abrasives on a 1/8" mandrel to clean and polish float seats. The cylindrical ones polish the barrel of the seat, and a conical one will dress where the needle fits, like lapping a valve. Those things are awesome for that kind of work. Also used for porting and polishing, with different grits. They are VERY pricey though.

    Here's a great tech tip I learned from watching the Mustie1 CZcams channel. When you need to clean the float needle seat, take a Q-tip and put it in a drill. Then run it in the float needle opening with a little carb cleaner. It will polish the needle seat as it's cleaning the passage. He would cut the Q-tips in half so you'd get 2 uses out of each one. Keep up the great content. Congrats on your success and the acquisition of the new lot.

    Loving the videos, great enthusiasm, problem solving and im learning from you. A little tip though...that air noise you think is coming out is actually air going in. Bleeding brakes is not as simple as undoing the nipple and pulling the lever a few times. There is a procedure that needs to be followed and there is more than one way to skin a cat. The way I do it is, put a tube and botle over the nipple then undo the nipple and pull the lever, when you have the lever fully depressed tighten the nipple and repeat till you get a firm lever. Also tap the caliper if you are struggling to get a firm lever. but like i said my way is not the only way. Subbed!

    Putting a hose on the bleed nipple that runs into a bottle for old brake fluid is a much cleaner way to bleed brakes and reduces the chance of getting fluid on your pads, also crack open the bleed nipple when the brake is under pressure. This makes purging air much easier.

    this is about your skid steer=you can buy a tooth bar that bolts onto the bucket. it will make digging a lot easier.
    also when you build a track DO NOT take the dirt from the track , it will leave low spots that will fill with water and make the track muddy. a good piece of advice is find a place away from the track for the extra dirt.

    That red n white F sticker on the head is fastheads, so the vavles could of been replaced with stainless or titanium vavles with the correct spring for them, probably ported.

    great vid, really enjoying your channel, you pick up some wonderful bikes, top tip for you, when bleeding brakes, you need to close the bleed nipple before releasing the lever, otherwise it actually sucks air back in, personally what i do it top the reservoir up, open the nipple and let it drip/trickle, then i put a tube over the bleed nipple with a big syringe, and suck the air/fluid through until i just have fluid coming, and keep an eye on the fluid level, there's other ways of doing it, but this is the easiest way when on your own, and the most effective i find, best wishes

    I really enjoy your videos.....very relaxing and you helped me out a few times with some tips/tricks. The blue paper/hand towels you are using, do you maybe have a name or link where I can buy it? Seems like its much more robust than normal white hand paper towels.

    • @thebigguy8306
      @thebigguy8306 Před rokem

      IMHO Joe should have an Amazon Affiliates link of tools and supplies. Think blue shop towels - Scott Shop Original (Walmart/Autozone) low lint and a little heavier than paper towels. The dealership I worked at used Wypalls (L30 or l40)

    When you pulled off the oil filter cover, I didn't see a spring. There should be a spring between the cover and filter. You want to make sure it's there, it keeps the filter tight against the case, it's important. Nice bike.

    Little TLC and that would sell for $2500 all day! Do the regular carb clean, oil change, set the valves, new chain, etc.! Excellent score! As many times that you have to clean Carb's, you should invest in a ultrasonic cleaner 👍

      I was thinking the same thing. Ideally, soak overnight in a degreaser, we were cheap and used vinegar, then lube with lithium grease.

    When you bleed brakes you pump it up untill it builds pressure, hold brake in, then crack bleeder as your holding brake. Close bleeder and repeat untill no air
