It's always good to improve your brakes so that they help you stop whether its "Wet or Dry!"
+Triumph Rascal (Triumphrascal) I bet handa is going to add that to the features list on the package. just watch ;)
Nothing like having the right tools for the job.
...such as a "match"...etc.
I was legit mad at your inadequate use of a wrench at first. It honestly made me cringe. Then when you duct taped sand paper the shoes I was like oh god okay I'm not crazy
Looks more like sand paper to me, are you serious dude
Exactly my thoughts
Don't forget the duck tape
Previous to this, I was watching videos featuring "Booji Boy" (of DEVO fame); I thought this may have been one of THOSE videos...
hahaha true..
I am so happy he is using assembly tape to keep those custom brake linings in place.
Thank you for this channel. I have learned so much while I was fixing up my brothers bike. Unfortunately he was killed last week when his handlebars came off.
Witnesses say that just before he rounded the curve the front wheel came off first but he instantly pulled a wheelie and managed to get around the bend. At that point he was on the wrong side of the road and facing oncoming traffic. He prepared to switch lanes and turned on his new custom made indicators. The witnesses say there was a flash of light and then a dense cloud of smoke as his wiring burnt out and petrol leaking from the custom fuel cock caught fire (I had warned him to spray the wires on the new indicators with WD40 before use, I guess he did not listen. No idea why the fuel cock I had taken from an old boat failed. He must of messed with it). It seems, from eye witness accounts, that his brakes may have failed also. I think this might have been because he used wet and dry for a brake liner instead of coarse grit sandpaper like I told him. We will never know as the bike was consumed in the fireball. As were half of the stores in main street.
Standing on the custom saddle I had made him from cardboard and an old pair of jeans and surrounded by flame, with his legs blazing and his custom helmet -- made of a cut in half plastic soccer ball overlaid with tin -- alight and dripping molten plastic down his neck (I had always told him to wear protective clothing on the bike and not just the T-Shirt and boxers shorts he was wearing that day. Would he listen? Would he f---!) he attempted an unwise manoeuvre. Screaming in pain, he yanked on the handlebars in an attempt to change direction and get back in lane but they came off (He must of failed to grease the securing nuts with margarine like your tutorial said) in his hands and he fell backwards into the path of an oncoming cement truck and got squished. Well, at least the squishing put the flames out, so that was good.
We buried him in an envelope.
He was 13.
The 750cc bike, was 18.
Unfortunately, the bike carried on and finally went through the window of a store and exploded. Five old ladies and a gay boxer named, 'Quite Angry Marvin,' out on a day trip to buy batteries for their sex toys, were killed in the inferno.
Still, not to worry. I look forwards to some more great videos. I am working on my sisters Fireblade at the moment and installing a cruise control made out of a washing up liquid bottle and some super glue. Its going well so far. Wish me luck.
oops..thats a mad bad sad story,..but as I always says. ..the reality always beats the fiction..
+InTheNameOfJustice peace be with you and your family in these difficult times.
+Ichiban Moto And also with you and yours.
wow lol
hahahaha this was the best.
man these crack me up. you are hilarious. the pathetic little tiny vice grip hopelessly rotating on the bolt....
it's metric
Another Top Tip from Ichiban Moto, Keep them coming .
These self-adhesive pads are awesome! They make these to fit worn out disc brake pads too! They are life savers! Thanks for the input Ich!
I love your sense of humor with the tools
This cracked me up at least i now know how to open the brakes to replace them with real shoes lol 😂 thank you
Oh thank you very much! You are my hero and save me a lot of money during restoration my bmw cafe racer. I would like to fix the brakes, but ive got weird thin disc on wheel, not drum like you. Can i glue the sandpaper directly on the disc?
I would just keep your worn out grinder discs and swap them straight out
Just bend the disk slightly, this will compensate for the pads having gotten thinner, as the warped disc then can fill out the gaps properly !
Just bang the shit outta the tire w a hammer. Something will change.
It took me a minute to realize that this entire video is an elegant practical joke. The whole point of the video is to troll the trolls, to entertain by provoking indignation. It really is a sardonic look at the whole CZcams genre! When you watch it with that in mind, he obviously spent a lot of time thinking up the wrong names, using the wrong tools, reusing cotter pins, wrong mask, and then capping it off with sandpaper and duct tape. There is just enough salient advice to realize that this comes from a much higher level, which makes it even more hilarious. I wonder how many requests he gets for the special kit.
Because of outrageous humor, I really want to give this one a thumbs up. The problem is, the joke could go right over the heads of dumbass teenage bikers. Every day I'm amazed at how stupid some viewers can be, but in the end ignorance is really not their fault. The Three Stooges was not funny without Moe, so this is participation cinema at its best. But If even one person were to have his duct tape and sandpaper seize while riding, it could be a comically sad, but ultimately indefensible day.
spelunkerd you actually were serious there, right? Anyone stupid enough to try n glue sandpaper to old brake shoes shouldnt be allowed to operate anything other than a spork.
It’s not funny unless you’re really really bored. I actually clicked on it and wasted five minutes of my time. Elegant? Naw. It’s just a waste of time.
@@dannon2010 you must waste more of your time and watch the rest of them, theyre hilarious
@@theravedaddy sporks are dangerous for these kind of people!!!!
even paper in their hands is deadly!!!
@@dannon2010 you have to be a technician to nfind this funny
if you are one then you are not a good one or you dont have a sense of humor
"split nail thing"??? It's a cotter pin.
And using Vise Grips on perfectly good nuts...SERIOUSLY???
Mark McMasters you forgot they were metric vise grips
He's doing stuff like that to be humorous for the video, he literally glued sandpaper to the pads if that isn't indication enough
I used to use Elmer's glue to fasten my brake pads but your method is ten times faster. two thumbs up!
+Thinking Impaired thanks for watching !
I also use the self adhesive brake linings inside the brake drums too as it compensates for wear ... 👍🏼
Dude! I am seriously always learning something new from this guy! Keep up the great work! :)
+David Nelson hey, thanks for watching and sharing !
thanks man, watching some of your videos was excellent therapy after having to sit through a bunch of incompetent how to videos that had me ready to yell at the screen
+theo christie I know, right? sometimes I microwave some popcorn and watch classic Ichiban videos after a hard day building bad ass bikes
10 out of 10 for pointing out the health and safety aspect of old bike linings, as they may contain asbestos if they have not been changed from new. also beware of old manifold gaskets, as they were made of asbestos
Okay, I'm good to go. Thanks for the helpful video!
you are very welcome! thanks for watching and sharing
I always wondered what that gray tape sitting in my tool box was for; many thanks for the great video because I'm going to do a brake job on my ex business partners bike this weekend.
+Thinking Impaired It's very nice of you to stay in touch with your former business partners
but still need to break-in those new linings... it will slide on the first year of usage.. after that its badass...
I don't know why the vice grip crack me up ... it is the motion or the size or that fact that it's a vice grip and not a wrench. lol
But why are the new linings so thin? How long will they last?
+Martin Brown Well technology advanced -- magic.
+jaryH3 LOL
I've stopped doing this refurbishment on them breakliners.. it's been a while since I first found out that the steel itself was much more stabil,..
and have not worn out any breaks since! - cheers, and thanks for another great one, mr. ichiban!..☆
+gorgon (-; !
Bro as I have checked under comments.... some people are trying this... without knowing that this video is just a fun.
THANK YOU! Aw man, I thought it was for real, right up to the sand-paper & duct tape!
bahahaha
Those Honda brake lining kit upgrades should always be used with assembly lube or at least marine grade wheel bearing grease, or else the stopping power will be too great and could be dangerous. Your videos have inspired me to modify my bike, so I have just fitted an ash tray to my Honda CB90.
Lol good video, came here to be refreshed and got what I needed.
I have change the hub and new brake shoe, but the brake still isnt working well..what to do next?
Filling the thing with Gravel is faster
Unfortunately we can't do that here in UK, our vehicles must pass an annual roadworthiness test. The examiners are adverse to gravel/soil fitted in brake drums, just as they dislike toilet roll stuck under the fork dust covers to absorb oil leaking from fork seals. They also do not believe in "Loud bikes save lives"...
Lol
That was the best dude. I haven't laughed that hard in a while. Thanks!
+Mark Turney you are very, very welcome! thanks for watching and sharing !
I bought new brake shoes like these shown but I didn't get the strip of liner like you show at minute 2:26 nor can I find these strips anywhere. Can you tell me where to buy them please? Because my new brakes won't stop my bike at all.
I thought that brake lining inspecting port was to top of the oil it was fully empty when i bought the bike it also leaked pretty badly
ichiban, thank you for another informative video. My only concern is that if more and more people learn from these motorcycle repair master class instructional videos, your restoration business will suffer as we will be able to repair and restore our own machines.
+Mark Stevenson ... I can always go back to building custom aircraft !
You guys are lucky, in Canada we have to use the more expensive red zip ties to pass safety. Those extra 30 cents times all the parts that need those ties really start to add up...
+Chris Sinclair but Canada has national health care, so it all balances out....
You forgot to oil the pads up so they don't wear out as fast
Using a match for a light to inspect brakes??
I couldn't afford the brake re-lining kit so I have to make do with friction rated banana crate fibre. Which side of the fibre will work best on a Yamaha front brake?
+stovepipe9er use the grippy side
dear bad ass, dues ex machina should hire you.
Someone needs to get this man some new tools lmao
Great information
Do you have a postal address for nickel town customs? i'm not on the internet yet and need cafe parts,
Very very very useful video, now I would never go to mechanic to change the brake liner/shoes.
"Refurbished brake shoes"?
I new they were ripping me off at the bike parts shop selling me a pair of shoes, my tires are worn and they say I have to replace them. Do you have any tips on carving deeper tread to prolong tire life and save money,is there a special tool a heated chisel or drill bit.
+Jeffrey Butt I will add that to the video suggestion list !
+Ichiban Moto This would be a great video.
The grooves on my tyres fill up over time too, to the point that they appear smooth and need emptying.
dear badass, dues ex machina should hire you.
Bad ass, but is there any way I can save weight on the drum brakes on my chopper cafe racer?
+David Chi have some extra drum carries and will do a vid on that for you !
Are these a better idea than ceramic brakes? How hard is it to use the assembly tape? I haven't learned how to use it before...
+Jesse Carstensen it takes some practice but it comes with a step by step instruction sheet
Ichiban Moto thank you again Ichiban Moto for a badass video!
someone is going to think this is real and FUCK UP their motorcycle. 10/10
One of your best videos yet! Some of the technical jargon confused me a bit though. I agree with back road moto, just filling the drum with (fine) gravel via the filler hole, is quicker and just as effective.
+Back Road Moto +Peter Huskins I'll have to add a baggie of gravel to my tool roll !
Ichiban Moto I would advise a degree of caution when selecting a fine grade gravel. Here in the UK we use a decimal grading system, as do most Japanese manufactures. I'm not sure imperial gravel commonly available in th U.S would be compatable.
+Peter Huskins "Imperial " is technically Japanese
+Peter Huskins I'm sticking with oem Honda gravel
Ichiban Moto If you can afford (or get hold of) OEM parts, it's probably a wise decision. I once filled my tyres with cheap Korean air to save a few pence and the handling was really not up to standard.
Those lining refurb kits look PROPER grippy! Careful when you haul those bad boys on, you'll be eating handlebar sandwich in no time!
Another fine tutorial. Do they make those kits for disk based braking systems? Mine are wearing a little thin and I like the ease of use.
Thanks Ichiban Moto!
+Andy Man Cam most excellent cautionary advice , most are not experienced with using racing quality linings. They do make disc kits as well, however special amber friction grade assembly glue is required, so please follow the instructions on the box closely.
I did this... Got in a serious wreck almost died..... Sandpaper sucks
Does it make me stupid if i told you i installed those self adhesive pads onto the drum brake.... and do i have a problem now?
Great stuff man, subscribed!
+2stroke4me easy fix !
You forgot to apply a liberal coating of copper grease to the Honda brake pads to stop them squealing.
What do you means by good brake cleaner? Would WD40 do?
+Penfold50 WD40, WD41, whatever's on sale
Does the brake drum stay actually effect the braking at all?
when pressure is applied , it keeps the entire mechanism from rotating with the drum and wheel
@@IchibanMoto will it effect the braking at all? As I installed mine back on and it stops the wheel from rotating a bit
If only you could edit my life ....... it would be so badass!
I laughed at the mask
Looks like it’s seen a few garage floors in it’s time lol
Are those brake shoe enhancers organic or semi-metallica?
+Voodoo Daddy1963 the abrasive might be volcanic rock or something
I used those liner kits for the drums on my minivan. I feel my kids are safer now when they borrow it.
+Beau Michna safety is our highest priority !
I have to get me some of that assembly tape for my next project.
I see! Said the blind man as he pissed into the wind..... It all comes back to me.
I'm looking forward to the point I can do up any bolt without a torque wrench. I like you, will just do it through feels..
+GTs Garage oh, I made a wrench for those torques too... there is a video here somewhere
Like a blind man in an orgy, a good mechanic does things through feel...
This is sooooo badass!
+Dean Segovis and their disk brake kits are even better !
Brakes will get hot going downhill, I surmise. Also it is hot near the blacktop. The glue backed sand paper would change in temperature in the outdoor and usage elements and the glue would be in proximity to the contact surfaces. The assembly tape is how the master reveals this danger. Still, if you never travel hills or live somewhere very temperate it might be a foolish, working fix. However the arcs of the contacting surfaces might distort.
Kills me to watch him use those vice grips on everything.
Ya got me...
He got me too
You forgot to bleed the brake man....come on.😂
oh fook.
The mini vice grips crack me up every time
+robaxx I have medium, large and extra large too.. it's just that only my mini ones are metric
I thought the match was the funniest
dude, really, sandpaper and duct tape? xD
+Steyreon It's bad ass, believe it!
Naw :P x)
+Steyreon it's brake lining material and assembly tape ,, just follow the instruction in the kit
with you I am not always sure what to take serious xD still love your vids
That's F@#ked up. There are probably guys riding around with Emery cloth eating their wheels up because of this "tutorial".
I don't understand why you wouldn't just replace the shoes? Admittedly i habent dealt with drums in over 5 years!
can i adapt the kit for modern brake pads?? mine are wearing thin. awesome tutorial as always my friend.
+johnnycactus0 yes, however it's very complicated. I will provide a future tutorial or you can always drop them in the post and I'll get those sorted for you mr. cactus !
i still need to post you my grips for a heating element upgrade!!! will get on the case!!!
How do you keep a straight face (voice) this is better than any Saturday Night Live (or take your pick) of comedies.
+Gims110 I don't understand what you mean. Proper brakes are serious business.
I was a little surprised that you didn't use your badass torque wrench when re-installing the axle nut.
+onefaller when you have been at it for this long, finger feel works good too.
i have disc brakes i always oil the brake rotors so it doesnt rust
Like your videos great to see .
nuts, awesome cool bike, BUT its a carter pin, and use adjustable or wrenches. i LOVE my old visegrips. I got a 86 Magna drum brake lever that is completely seized now Im trying to get it loose with drum brakes on back.
+grabba73 make sure to use metric vice grips.. who is carter?
Ichiban Moto no idea, ....... ill call Michael Caine n see if he can get him
dear badass, deus ex machina should hire you.
+Metsuda Koloterorita they have called a few times.. however I prefer to stay an independent build shop !
"But officer!?!, ichiban said to..." Hihihi
+SUBMOTO I just give them a sticker :)
You skipped the whole reason I'm here. How to take the cover off the brake.
er did he just tape sand paper to his front brake drum lining ? cos my mind just fell out my ear.
Papio G he taped it to the rear but dont let a swinging arm and a rod operated brake confuse you as to which end is which..... i hope you dont actually operate a vehicle on public roads.....
This is so damn good!!
guys, i figured out an even better, cheaper system. i use 2 sided carpet non slidy tape and cat litter. i put the litter (carefully screened of turds) on one side and use the other side to attach it to the worn shoe. works great and i get lots of attention from the neighbour hood cats and hot chicks like the one at 2:21. Bad ass!
+Fear Goodjudgement awesome.... always looking for improvements !
gotta love the match
it does help with visability
interesting 80 grit brake shoes now the drums will wear out in a day
+paul acabbo need to upgrade to matching drums
You are seriously hilarious..... lol....
I wish I had known about those kits ! I had to go and pay mega-bucks for a pair of new Malossi shoes for my scoot. Duh!
+vitaly deuterium you can still find them here and there
What's up with that screwdriver and why did you use a match to light up the sight hole instead of a flashlight?
"And don't forget the nail" 😂
360CEA725 I make my screwdrivers . want to buy one?
Refreshingly Genius chuckle's
How stupid ! An inexperienced young novice rider could look at this video and actually follow the instructions given here and have an accident as a result. Always use the correct size spanners, do not use a bit of wire instead of a proper split pin, and always fit some new complete assembly brake shoes. I do get the funny side of the video but it's dangerous.
You're the reason we don't have lawn darts anymore.
Natural selection!
Theres usually 1 safety nanny on every video but ichiban gets dozens of dickheads......a true master of winding up idiots
This is funny and all but for someone who doesn't know much about motorcycles and actually tries this you'll be held accountable for their death.
This is obviously a joke, from split nail thing to twisty wire to "assembly tape" lol. Wow man
i understand this is comedy but. Brakes, really? just imagining some guy trying to learn how to repair his own motorcycle stumbling over this. who doesn't know any better. brakes are the difference between life and death. i know its highly unlikely anyone is gonna take this serious. but you haven't even hinted to this being humor, not even in the bio. like dude come on.
Your a Jimmy rigger!! vise grips?? really?
There is no reline your brakes at home what I saw you install was SANDPAPER!!!!
it's a kit
I really cant believe the amount of gullible morons in the world, no really!
Wow, he does not know the proper names of the parts, but uses lock grips on bolts. Very unprofessional
what the he'll? thanks for the tutorial but why sandpaper with tape lol.
it was funny how u were using the match as light and that tiny griping pliers 🤣🤣😂
it look like a sand paper
I am new to motorcycles and am learning to work on my bike as I go. I started watching your "how to" videos thinking they would assist me. After watching several of them on various topics, something didn't seem right, so I went to the comments section. It was only there that I realized that these videos aren't legitimate. I don't what is wrong with you that you try to pass off your dumb ass videos' as legitimate instructional videos, but speaking as someone who is learning, you are going to hurt someone. People like me who are still learning and don't know any better aren't going to recognize your bullshit as bullshit. You need to either put a disclaimer on them, or un-publish them because someone is going to hurt themselves or cause damage to their motorcycle.
just as I do, follow the directions included with your specific kit
As a learner, please do not try maintaining brakes and suspension etc yourself. Leave it to a pro for a fea years !
Morten Kristoffersen that's what people don't understand, if you don't have enough common sense to figure out these videos are jokes you should not be working on your own bike.
Ok ok your taping sandpaper to your break pads when you can buy them for 12 bucks and not sand the rim off your motorcycle ! This was a joke video right ? Never use vice grips on your wheel nut and you called it a bolt and it's a castle nut for the axle lol come on
Are u booz man!
