For a minute there, while having a grope around inside, checking the suspension pivot needle bearings, I thought you were going to say that if your finger came away all brown and sludgey that you were groping around in the wrong place... You know,... like near a chain guide or something.... Yeah, a chain guide... :)
😂😂
will also make the wheel base shorter+more weight on the front, be interesting to see if you notice the difference in handeling
Love this always wanted to have a go at this now I will try thanks for the vid
Another awesome video brother !!! Great fabrication and measurement!!! Bike is really looking badass !!! Keep up the great work brother !!! Stay safe guys cheers from New York !!! 🎉🎉🎉
I love you attention to detail on all your work. Back in the early 90s I had my ZX7 GMD computracted,look it up it was really cool stuff. Anyway raising the back or lowering the front of your bike changes the way it will handle in all aspects. If you go to Radical it could give you a high speed wobble,tip in too fast when entering corners or run wide on exit. it's something to think about when playing around with things. Every adjustment will change something. I had the same problem with the chain rubbing the gard, I went up a tooth in the front and I think I added 4-5 teeth in the rear. Yeah, it was a lot to change but that bike wanted for nothing.Then you'll start thinking about spring rate and how it affects things. I'm a transmission mechanic by trade(now retired) and love adjustments sooooo I tend to run away with things. I learned a lot of this after having the bike comutracted,FUN TIMES
Nice one Del 👍
Love the reference to the Triumph from a few years ago, raising the back end of that bike with custom dog bones proper made that bike👍
Deffo my favourite build of yours, especially the stance and colour scheme👍
Keep up the great work Del 'n' Pen 👍
Thanks Paul👍, appreciate you remembering the old project, it's now in the hands of a good friend who absolutely loves it! Have a great Sunday mate and thanks for your support, D&Px
Love that sander!
Yeah, me too, it's a beast aye !
Always good to fine tune it to make it exactly to ur needs 👍🏻
Absoloutely mate... hope you're all keeping well there, hugs to the family, D&Px
Nice work Del. Changed the "Dog Bones" on my Victory (went lower), and they weren't cheap. Love that 'Busa!
They're never cheap mate (well at least not those that are worth trusting your life on lol), so it's a simple job to make a pair from a chunk of flat stock!
Hi Penny and Del... nice video. A bit of fab in the shop is always interesting to watch. The bike is coming along nicely! Take care, dear friends. Ride safe and be well.
Thanks buddy👍, glad you enjoyed it, and always really appreciate your kind support.. Take care and have a wonderful week.. D&Pxx
That Hayabusa is an absolute weapon, one of the greatest motorcycles ever made, have you seen them taken off road?, incredible versatility!
Yes I have, there are some crazy videos out there of sportsbikes off road, can't imagine it does them much good long term though!
that's another way to help keep the front tire down ;)
Possibly, I'm not sure it'll work though lol
Nice to make your own stuff, saves money 😊 great video, have a great weekend to you both
Sure thing mate, I didn't want a set menu length that was the wrong height, and why pay for them when I can make them! Have a good weekend too.
Great fab work as always Del. I have to think about doing the opposite on my Versys. It was tall 15 years ago when I got the bike. Now at age 72 it's like climbing on a horse. 😁🤣😂🙃 Thanks and cheers to you and Penny. ❤👍👍
Ah bless ya Rick! Glad you enjoyed the video, have a wonderful and safe weekend there, soon be summer! Ride safe, D&Px
Good job. And perfect explanation why you did what you did. Food for thought on Friday night. Have a great weekend, the two of you. Günter/Nürnberg
Thanks Günter, thank for watching! Have a great weekend there too!
That's just a great looking bike. Not for everyone, but it looks awesome to me...
Thanks!
Just what I need, I'm a short guy, able to put my feet on the ground. Nice modification.
Watch your centre stand height if you have one, when change the dog bones!
Bad news !! My mutt won’t let have the bones!! 😅
Del it looks great but the proof of the pudding is in the eating. How does it feel to ride. I love how easy you make it look to machine new parts, I could never do that, but, it make me go out to the garage and try. THANK YOU>
There's the point to it mate, go out to the garage and try! You'll be surprised what you can achieve with a bit of patience and a sense of humour!
Whoa! 7:00 - 7:40 is Kraftwerk 'nissed as pewts' & live in a rusty shunting yard! Turn it up to '11'!
(Nice editing you two - your drill press is a bit too fast for the 'Ying Tong Song' - but it's close : )xx
You're too kind Sir, glad you enjoyed... and Kraftwerk, blimey that's going back a bit lol. Have a wonderful weekend, D&Px
Superb, Del! Nicely done…
🏍️👍🏍️
Great job pal, clean work
Thanks 👍
Excellent how to. 👍
Thanks 👍
Great job Dell ! Brilliant idea using those slip plates ! Have a great weekend mate 👍
Thanks Paul, you too mate.
I nearly peed myself with the brown finger remark! having just come back from the doctors! 😮ooof!
Out of curiosity, is their a difference between the ali express dogbones and the one in the shop for 7 times te money?
Amazing job bro
Excellent work looks a mean stance now,
Excuse my stupidness here, but if removed the dog bones (to grease needle bearings for maintenance ) without the jack on the swing arm how hard would it be to get the links refitted ?
Would the swing arm jump up or down ? Or best advice,
Look forward to rest of the build 🤙
If you have set the swing arm to the relevant height to remove the dog bones, just leave it there and don't move it, once you've greased them, just put them back on, same goes for the shock mount!
An excellent tutorial
Yes, the height is not important, as the design is.
You raised the seat, but you already said you would also lower it with thinner padding.
Either way, for those who want to make the change you did,
For them I "sneaked" into your workshop
06:23
and measured the NEW gap between the holes at your 304SS bone: 99mm
Indeed, the new plates were 100mm centres, but that's just what it turned out to be correct on the chain run, 1mm + or - would have made little difference and, of course, I've still got to deal with the sidestand when I get to it!
Great video Del & Penny. Excellent mob mate, job well done, you now have a very cool stance. The Busa just gets better and better and they are such a great bike to ride. Penny and you are keeping well, have a relaxing weekend and take care. PS hope the weather is getting better over your side. Cheers
Thanks for your support as always! We're wishing a safe and sunny weekend there, here a little sun but mostly overcast and grey, roll on summer lol Take care, all the best, D&Px
Nice to see that beautiful machine being used and top class again.
Thanks again, always appreciayte your kind words.
Your "thoughts for the day" stay up for only half a second or so. Can they be displayed longer, (as they were previously), so they can be read?
It's Looking great Del.
Thanks mate 👍!
Great video Del. And nice modifications with simple tools and that awesome belt sander. “Those who stand for nothing, fall for anything" - Alexander Hamilton. Have a great weekend.
Thank you buddy for your kind support, it's very much appreciated! Great saying as well... have a fantastic weekend and ride safe, all the very best, D&Px
