Nicely done, you're doing several jobs here ; the basic mechanical stuff & that of a video/editor all in one. It takes some
good skills to lay it out in a way people can understand & I think you've done it well. I've not bought a bike yet but this is
on my list of possible plus you never know what I come across in the used market >> one of these might be available
for a fairly low price & the chain/sprockets will need to be accessed -n- changed. As you show, that's the time to go on
& do the swing arm plus check the wheel bearing on an older used bike. I've not seen drum brakes in a long time but
this is that time as well & I'm betting you've at least done a check-up brake video. I'll be digging thru... peace

@@user-dv7hb2sc9m Thank you for the kind words. I actually had to replace the rear brake caliper because it was damaged, so I have a video on that which includes bleeding the brake fluid. Never got around to making a brake pad replacement video but it just takes removing a couple screws. Good luck on your search for a used bike!

I appreciate what you're doing, I might know more about bikes than some guys who own them.... lol, but it's b/c of
channels like you have that I've learned. An XT is not my top choice but I'll tell you that I would not be disappointed
if I wind up w/ one. In fact, I liked the XT225 more than the 250, I like the 6th gear & size but I've found that many
hold out for a high price when selling them. I've seen 2 & both were $3,500 or more. Way too high for that old of
a bike but I'm saving money waiting. I'll get what pops up & an XT250 might be it & I think you've got one of the
easier to follow methods of repair than many. I call it the way I see it..... thanks man
