I had the WORST experience with Carvana. They have also been in the news quite a bit for shady deals and sub par mechanics. I am actually really dissappointed they took money from them.
yeah man
Why would they use them as a sponsor? They are some of the biggest scum bags in recent car dealership history.
My dad bought a 2013 f150 from then and we couldn't register the vehicle in our name because the truck was stolen. It took a thousand phone calls, a call to the DA, and 3 months for them to buy the truck back. It's safe to say I'm buying from dealerships for now on.
Carvana is a shady company for sure

Newbie rider here. This was SUPER helpful and I'm so glad I stumbled across your video. I've now done all of this and mega happy that my bike will treat me as well as I've treated it so far. Thank you so much!
I’m a newbie rider too. Been watching Donut for years, love these guys.
not trying to be an asshole but 80-90% of this video was "service your bike" and it applies to any motor vehicle. I'm surprised this is news to anyone that actually owns a bike...
Some of us didn’t grow up around bikes so it’s always helpful to get tips wherever we can, no matter how big or small
@@Skandarr788 You did a piss poor job on not being an asshole.
@@tattoosandtea7376well said g
my man, you deserve a lot of credit for this video. You provide great example and explanation on really crucial steps that many professional workshops do not share with customers and, in my experience, they tend to exagerate the difficulty. Thank you very much for educating us with simple and detailed explanation on something that might save us a lot of headaches. Cheers from Spain!
What are you telling me changing the brake pads doesn’t take 3 hr labour?
@@guanqiaowang7586 hahaha no man, that's up to the mechanic skills. In my case, most probably won't be able even to put them back together lol. I'm just saying sometimes things are way simpler than some people tell, and we can learn to do them if properly explained.
Even more than being a car driver and knowing a bit about cars, I personally feel every motorcycle rider as a bare minimum should know everything you have just demonstrated. The safe condition of your motorcycle is paramount. Thanks DM I hope people learn from this, could save a life.
Eh the world is over populated as it stands, if you wear Jean shorts, flip flops and no helmet with a wife beater like I see 1/2 the riders around here... Let natural selection take its course 😂
Completely agree. But let's not forget the intimidation factor when you do/get your first one and honestly just being afraid to ask how or for help learning(kinda worse than holding the flashlight for dad)
@@jmabs5096 facts dude I ride in fl and see flip flops, no helmet, shorts and a beater all the time...
Pretty much. Plus imo you literally need to know a decent bit more stuff, if you also want to push in let's say a track environment, moreso on road.
Absolutely. I've been a bike-only guy for years now and one of the reasons I've stayed safe(r) the whole time is good maintenance and not buying crappy tyres. The margins of safety are just smaller on bikes than cars, it's something you need to accept.
I have been a service advisor at a powersports dealership for the last two years, I can’t tell you how many times I wish I had access to a video like this to show my customers, everything you said was 100% true. That is why I love this channel, you guys actually care about helping people understand their machines better. It’s awesome
you cant do that, your shop will
lose money 😂
@@maddog7999 only the shitty shops lose money. Even those who are certified mechanics and/or wrench on there own vehicles find jobs that they are willing to pay for someone they can trust to do the job. Its when cars come back with obviously shady sales tactics and lie to their face with a sketchy bill. Ive personnaly had to go into multiple shops after my mom/sister/non car friends have had 300$+ oil changes that should have been 50-100$
@@maddog7999 what makes you think that we make a profit, that’s for the parts and sales department, my shop is there for the people that don’t want to or can’t work on their own machines
I agree. What was especially impressive was how efficiently he sucked all that fluid out.
Copy the video link into a QR Code generator. Print that out and put it on the wall or in a display. Staples can help you make something nice to put it on. Top text: Bike Maintenance 101; QR code in Middle; By: Donut media logo. Something to that effect anyway.
Great demonstration of the maintenance work that needs to be carried out on motorcycles; to keep the rider safe.
Loved this, one of the most comprehensive (and enjoyable to watch) videos on bike maintenance. MORE!
Jerry ALWAYS describes things so well and with such detail. He could make a 15 minute video on how to walk and I'd watch it and I'm 99% sure I'd still learn something new.
LOL
he's cute, too, so it's easy to watch him talk about whatever 😂
LMAO
Love how Jerry literally walks you through every process and everything you need to know about how to fix or maintain your ride👍
Yeah, I was like, "easy Jer, save some for next time! I need more bike videos!" xD
I really appreciate your style of making these videos, you first say the name, then show the location, and then explain how it works and explain the liquid, functions and different vocabulary explanations. i am a teen and i was very confused on the brake fluid, and after this video i know how it works and why it works like that! thank you!
Been watching Donut for couple of years now, I personally own 2 motorcycles ( one of them being a R3 ) didn't know half of this, Love the Motorcycle Content, keep it coming ... 🙌🏼
Check out yammie noob

@@MisterE2U it was satire fam chill
Next episode idea: a deep dive into suspension setup; preload, compression rebound damping adjustments and what each one does and how to check you sag and all that! Thanks Jerry 😘
Dave Moss and Donut crossover
That'd be great!!
I think Yamaha R3 doesn't have front adjustable suspension. Yea sure you can hack one into, or install readily available adjuster to it.
I’d like to add that for a newly acquired used bike, it is important to know the condition of the fork seals. Granted, replacing the seals would be beyond the scope of this video, but a properly functioning front fork is a safety issue. New riders should know enough to identify an issue, and know that it’s not just a matter of comfort.
Tell the camera man to stop moving back and forth
Would love to see more videos like this from donut again. Most of the videos recently seem like they're just for the memes, but I miss the days of B2B and Money Pit where I actually learned things about cars.
I feel exactly the same.
Preach!!!!
These types of videos take _way_ more time and money to make than a simple D-List, so don't expect them regularly.
Remember, the 'Media' in Donut Media refers to their status as a for-profit corporation.
Yes
I'm completely new to the whole world of motrocycles and cars and the way you thoroughly explain stuff is just amazing and so useful!! This type of channel is just what I needed, thanks :)
So happy Donut are doing more Motorcycle stuff, as someone who has always loved cars I have recently got into motorbikes and these videos are giving me so much info to help me buy the correct bike! Thanks guys
I'm glad to see motorcycle content. A lot of the car community are bike enthusiasts. You're starting off this series right. Thanks Jeremiah.
I'm a bike guy (Triumph RS 765, carbon black baby) and have done most mechanical (i.e. non-wiring) things you're going to face on a motorcycle, but I still love watching videos like these and hearing other people's tips.
THANK YOU for bringing back the wrenching! I love everything Donut does, but the actual auto repair/maintenance/modding stuff is the absolute best and the reason I subscribed! Nothing better than to learn from Jerry, Zach and the guys on how and why stuff works. I don't even plan on buying a bike, but am so pumped for the bike stuff with Jerry. Keep it up!
I'm pumped for anything with JB.
same. No plans for a bike but good content regardless.
I agree
Hey Jeremiah, just to add up to the braking part. Remember if your current pads are very worn at the time of putting the new ones you're gonna find you might not be able to put them in and have to compress the caliper piston to get the new ones in. I normally take the caliper out, put the old pads in the caliper and with two flatheads i push them back 👍 just to remind people the regular car caliper compressor most likely won't work on the small calipers the bike has.
You dont have to remove calipers to change pads on most motorcyles. My neighbour did this and blew all 4 pistons out of his calioers then came to get me and i said he shouldnt have touched the bike. And i declined to fix it for him as i didnt have the time to deal with his problem and he said he didnt have the money to pay a shop, which means he didnt have anything to oay me or to own the GSXR750.
Talk about a nice neighbor!!!
@@matthewmorrone883 14:10 eeds
@@matthewmorrone883 are you ok man?
@@matthewmorrone883 That's why you push the piston with the old pads, otherwise yes, you're breaking the calipers.
I'm curious as to how you change the pads, put the piston back, without removing them from the bike?!
Thank you, Jeremiah! I have a 97 Honda Magana that has been sitting in my garage for going on 3 years. This series is inspiring me to get out there and get it running myself. Looking forard to many more episodes of "Money Pit Mortorcycle"
Fun tip - when checking fluids and filling up make sure it’s leveled and not on its kick stand. You can over fill it Love the motorcycle videos 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you sir. I didn't think about this and love bikes. I'm just a sport quad kind of guy when would I think of that wrenching the 660 or 250 you got me man you got me
Another tip, when messing with brakes (changing fluids or pads) be VERY careful with the fluid handling, if it overflows or spills it will ruin your paint, your plastics and your day
I always change fluids while up on stands. You can get a good rear stand from Revzilla for under $100.
@@Alexandre_0 will my marriage be safe, when it overflows? Or is that also ruined along with everything else?
I suggest you always search up how your bike’s oil is supposed to be checked. My 1991 vfr400 is meant to be checked on the stand. It is individual to every bike
Jerry, I'd check the brake pads first before replacing brake fluid. If the brake pads were worn out and you already had brake fluid topped up, you'll find brake reservoir overflowing and make a mess later on.
The brake reservoir also had upper and lower level indicator that also tells you how much life your brake pad has. That's why you need to top it up to upper level with brand new brake pad installed.
You got them tips 💯 thanks!
Is that legit? I mean i see the logic, as the pads wear the pistons move in pulling down the oil level but is that reliable or more like a guess? My pads have wear indicators so i usually get into a position where i can see them and go solely off of that but your method would be pretty convenient.
@@ajaydyas4699 With my current car and former bike, I had to drain excess brake fluid when changing the brake pads.
For brake reservoir - thats not entirely true. It can serve as an indicator, but one should not rely on it when maintenance.
@@ajaydyas4699 typically yes, but as Alexandr said we shouldn't rely on it solely as maintenance indicator.
If the brake parts were kept stock, brake fluid indicator should give you quick glance on how "healthy" your brake system is.
agak jarang ya nemu subscribers indo di komen donut media. keren b ingnya mas 🤙
I’m glad y’all make videos like this for new riders, showing them how to do a full tune up is very important, people should all know how to at least do a tune up in there bike
This is literally perfect. I just bought a brand new R3 and not only is this a great guide to taking care of your bike but it’s the same one I have! 😎👌
No matter what don't stop this series. It's one of the better recent ones. I can tell they aren't performing as well cus the audience is smaller for it, but I love it. Real wrench turning and learning in these episodes and I'm looking to get a bike soon!
Yeah!
Im not a bike guy but this was a good video. This is the kind of higher quality of content that I've come to relate Donut with. Please continue. The list and stuff are fun but it should not be your main content.
Even with years of motorcycle experience, I still find these videos helpful and informative. Keep them up
Keep going with this series please, next episode could be about what skills are useful to learn when your starting to ride - things like pretending your invisible to other motorists are key to staying alive
I love that you guys make motorcycle videos
Any chance of seeing a video talking about the crazy physics I see in motoGP?
I see the rear wheel up in the air on turns. Racers leaning hard touching knee and somehow keeping traction. It's nuts and I want to hear all about it but with that Donut flair to make it that much better.
P.S.
I am so glad you're making this content just in time for me getting ready to buy my first motorcycle. Keep pumping out this content Jerry!
If only because of DORNA, Donut would have made one already. DORNA really is the worst one in terms of footage copyright. We cannot use any of MotoGP footages without being struck by them.
That's why we have tons of F1 videos here (because of how lenient Liberty Media's copyright is) but not a single MotoGP video. Well, not only just in Donut but also in CZcams in general.
Motogp’s CZcams channel has a bunch of tech talk videos that are really good explaining things. What you are talking about comes down to tires
When I'm hard front breaking my rear wheel lifts... slightly. Usually happens before tip in after a straight. It is amazing 😍 what these tools can do... certainly more than I can.
MotoGP💌 Respect!
Enjoy your 1st moto! 👍🏻
You should check out Fortnine videos for the best motorcycle content on youtube
As someone who just bought their first motorcycle and has had it for less than 1 month, I am going to do all of these things!
Keep making motorcycle content guys this is awesome.
Welcome to 2 wheels
Im betting by your profile pic (English flag) that you have a British made bike.
maybe a triumph, norton. if so welcome to the club and enjoy =)
Super thorough service walk-through. Great work. To the point informative and not boring. Props
Really glad to see Donut branching out with the motorcycle content. Great stuff guys. Keep it up 👍
Great to have another project going on the channel! The tooling and modding and fixing stuff is the best part and what everyone loves to see. Not a bike guy, but I'm super interested nonetheless. And Jerry's great at explaining stuff. Get Jobe and Aaron wrenching on something again, too! Then get Pumphman Phlex and Our Boy Nolan to ride and drive it.
This is so fundamental! Videos like this make my riding hobby sustainable and cheaper! Thanks man!
Pretty good video. One thing I would add is that you should always check the gap on the new spark plugs to make sure it is correct as it could get dropped while still in the box during packaging or shipment.
About tire wear, the left side of the tires will probably have more wear (in countries where traffic goes in right-hand lanes) because we have crowned roads. The middle of the road, where the yellow line is, is actually raised to help rain water flow off, so on most roadways, a motorcycle is never riding exactly on the middle of its tires.
Until I started doing alignments, I never really thought about the crown in the road. The first day, I set up a car as square as possible, and try to get identical caster and camber, and the car would pull to the right, old guy comes over and changed my life forever. If you measure any car, the wheelbase will be 1/8 to 1/4 inch longer on the passenger side, slightly less caster on the driver's side, slightly less rolling resistance, and it's all just to slightly ride up the crown in the road
Also, when driving on the right side of the road, left turns from a stop are usually faster and longer than right turns, thus scrubbing off more rubber.
Also, the front tire is installed backwards. Grooves should be the other way to channel out water and avoid hydroplaning.
@@engineer1692 😂 Nice one
@@engineer1692 they come like that from factory. My '22 mt-03 which is an r3 with no fairings has the front tire installed that way also and I bought mine direct from yamaha dealer with 1 mile on the odo.
Please continue this series! I am looking forward to make my drivers license for motorcycles and already want to know as much as possible in advance 👀
These videos help me a lot, are entertaining and even hype me more about upcoming work on my potential future motorcycle.
Keep up the great work ✨
Dome more in detail is ari hening (mc garage and revzilla's "the shop manual" if you interested in motorcycle maintenance and riding focused content: )
Very informative and to the point. This gentleman keeps it simple and speaks with expertise minus the ego. Great for beginners and returning riders. Thanks mate.
This is a cool smart young guy, but so sympathetic and he manages to cover everthing of the basics with a bike - really cool, many thanks.
Recently (sort of) I bought a crashed motorcycle and I've been fixing her up and getting her ready to ride (it's so close!) and I've already done all these things you demonstrated. Yet, I felt compelled to watch the whole video. Great information and great energy. It's really good to see Jerry doing what he loves. Great work Jerry! Also, nice tip on the excel sheet to keep track on the bike's maintenance.
Hey jer, I wish youd talked about replaceable vs cleanable air filters and how to actually gap spark plugs correctly. A few segments felt rushed, but I did thoroughly enjoy this! Makes me feel like I should be servcing my bikes myself instead of being lazy 😂
Also, a random thought... Segments about what not to do could be called DoNOT? Get it donut DoNOT?
You should really look up your own bike. I think this video is good to give you an overall but if you need more detail you will need to look it up. Some bikes have a oil filter some don't, some say you can mix brake fluid some don't. Some bikes you adjust the chain one way and one bike a different. Some bikes might not even have a chain. Some bikes it take forever to take a part and some are easy.
Personally I'll stick to the stock single use air filters, the washable ones aren't filtering smaller dusts that well and I also don't want to clean my throttle body that often
Excellent video! My Son just turned 18 and I bought him his first motorcycle. Having resources like this while we work on the bike is instrumental.
Love it. A little overwhelming realizing the amount of that stuff that I have not done, but definitely doable.
YES I LOVE THESE VIDEOS!!!
I'll be buying my first bike sometime soon, and learning these motorcycle specific things really makes me feel more comfortable leaving the safety of my cage and 5pt harnesses. Keep em coming Donut!
Also, when checking the chain slack you should rotate the back wheel to make sure the tension of the whole chain is the same. If you find some tight spots it means one or both sprockets is worn.
Or a link could be seized!
Definitely keep doing stuff hands on and letting subs come to work on cars with you guys that is really cool, but so is everything else you guys do in the shop or anything!
I don't know about anyone else, but I love when Uncle Jerry shows me how tuh do stuff, with my bikes(if I had one). It's informative, and I'm pretty sure, something I would easily overlook when doing maintenance. Thanks Uncle Jerry!!! Looking forward to the next video.
I had the WORST experience with carvana. They have also been in the news quite a bit for a Shady deals and sub par mechanics. I am actually really dissappointed they took money from them.
Always good to refresh your bike maintenance knowledge, thanks for the video.
Yes more motorcycle videos would be amazing. Thaaaank you for starting to make more bike content, it's so needed and there's definitely a gap in the mainstream market for it.
This video couldn't have come out at a better time. Thanks Donut. Keep the bike stuff coming
another thing with the oil is that ive had bikes that were overfilled and needed some taking out. I found with the chain lube applying it after a ride when the chain is still warm the lube soaks in a bit better than just allowing the solvent to evaporate on a cold one. great content as always Donut.
you reminded me to do some much needed winter maintenance. Especially that brake fluid. Thanks!
I love that you all are doing another build along series. Honestly this is my favorite type of content that you put out!!
same bro. more wrenching videos!
I’ve been a motorcycle rider for years but always been scared of playing in. This video is an absolute gem! Thank you for making it so clear and straight to the point!
thanks man, i just got a bike brand new because i didn't know how to make sure a used one is all good. now I know for next time when I get a used one that I can do the maintainence.
I subscribed because of the MC content. Keep making more. I have owned bikes for years and have always done all the work myself but always enjoy watching things like this. You never know what tips you might pick up or things that you might forget to check and look over.
This is all seriously amazing advice. I love your videos in general, but as a rider, I really appreciate these. There's fewer failsafes on a motorcycle, so it's so important that what's there is working right. Basic maintenance videos like this save lives, I guarantee it
I don't own a bike, and probably never will, but I still find all this super interesting. Honestly, the whole reason I have confidence in doing my own car maintenance is because of Donut and videos like these. Doesn't really matter if its a bike, truck, car, or lawnmower, there is valuable information in these that can be applied elsewhere. Keep videos like these comin!
I'm gonna buy one this week. Get one, and have fun, brother !
Really glad I found this video. Planning on getting a bike got my birthday and really wanted to know how the up keep differs from a car and how different maintenance is. I'd really rather prefer doing my own maintenance so this has been super helpful!
Super awesome video. I'd add a couple of little things that youve missed.
1. Cables: Even if you change the fluids, if youve found moisture in the old ones it's safer you replace the cables aswell. They can rust inside and could block the system.
2. Chain cleaning: Most time we miss cleaning the front sprocket. There can be a huge amounts of accumulated dirt and grease in there. Its important you clean them whilst you are cleaning your chain.
3. Air filters: the one shown in the video are reusable air filters, so next time you need not just change them but simply wash them. But do note that its always better to use a stock paper air filters, it'll increase your mileage and protect your engine in the longer run from dirt and dust but its at the cost of performance. Reusable air filters are marketing for the purposes of increase your performance by increasing the air flow. More air flows, better combustion and better output but more air means bigger filter holes also means more dust, so yeah you'll be sacrificing one or the other.
You'd be surprised how free-breathing a filter can be and still capture typical road dust. Almost every aftermarket air filter captures the same sizes and quantity of debris as stock paper filters, with the only exception being HKS, which allowed debris through but was also the least restrictive.
As a certified master technician, I call BS to everything you said.
really glad to be seeing you do motorcycle stuff, and also oddities like the Honda big red, i used to work on stuff like those big reds and other Japanese bikes from 70's to 90's for a living but im in Canada so had to go to other vehicles due to winter up here, so its refreshing to see my passion/obsession through another avenue please keep it coming
Keep making the motorcycle stuff! Everything you talked about is stuff that I wish I knew when getting into riding. Dealerships sometimes try to pass off old tires that are hard as a rock on people who don't know any better so it's good to check tire date when buying too.
Great video.
For summer bike riders who own a garage.
Great channel! The one thing I would have also quickly checked is the lights - headlight main & dip beam, indicators and rear and brake light - it's no fun being rear-ended by a vehicle whose driver was not paying attention. (Ask me how I know!) All the best, Rob in Switzerland (decades of motorcycle and MX-5 ownership).
see you around in ZH this winter on our 2 wheels
Thanks, Rob. Have a blessed day :)
Jeremy carrying the motorcycle stuffs, probaly about a third or fourth of DONUT audience.
Excellent explanations, Jerry is a top-notch educator. I've ridden for a long time and do most of my own work, but this made me realize that I'm kinda lazy about some really easy stuff. Keep the motorcycle videos coming!
This was super helpful and clear….Please share how your bike maintenance/ record excel looks like
Really like your video. For someone coming from English is not the normal language. Your simple layman term English really helps me to understand. Thank you so much. I am from Malaysia....
Been riding since 2014 but still love seeing moto videos like this. Always fun to see how other people do things. Also great for both new riders and as a refresher. Keep ‘em coming!
I’ve recently been inspired to learn how to ride and buy a bike so yes, please keep making these videos!! As a beginner, it would be nice to understand all the different types of bikes and what recommendations you would have. Hopefully that video is on your list.
Same, probably gonna take some courses to learn how to ride and be on the road. A bit scary, but I wanna learn and enjoy something new.
@@ghostkiller427 I can't speak for all courses obviously, but my course was an absolute joke when it came to actually being road ready. It was a requirement from the state to even get your license, so I have no idea why they didn't put more time or effort into the course. I highly recommend Motorcycle Training Concepts, it's an E-course and it was a million times better than my ""course""
I've been riding for decades and was in the industry for a number of years. This is the best video on this that I've ever seen. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you! As.a relatively new rider I appreciate this motorcycle maintenance content.
so glad i was taught this stuff all when i was first starting to ride, i'm glad that this info is available to people who haven't been taught this. all great tips. its literally all the things i would do every 3000 miles... especially with sport bikes, with high performance you shouldn't take risks you can easily avoid.
Yes! More motorcycle content from Jerry! I'm pumped to see the diversity in Donut's programming. I would also appreciate a similar rundown for new car buyers as well, maybe featuring Jobe!
Getting my first bike this weekend this was an great informative video thanks man👍👍
Amazing video GUYS!!! Currently thinking of buying my first motorbike and just roaming around for information as an amateur and as always you bring the best and understandable stuff of all. Thanks
Please keep making more motorcycle content! Also, I'm a fan of you guys wrenching on stuff too, so if that's what you wanna do, then I'm all for it!
Thanks for all the bike content! I recently got one so this stuff is really helpful!!!!
First video I've seen that actually explains what bleeding the brakes means, thank you.
Thanks for reminding me about how I've been putting off doing my coolent change for too long. I better do that.
Make a track bike series, like a money pit motorcycle!
I couldn't agree more Jer. I don't even ride or have any plans on acquiring a bike in the near future. But I do enjoy watching and learning random things such as this. Would def like to see this type of content hitting the 4 wheeled varieties from time to time.
This was possibhly the most comprehensive "general maintenance" esque video i've ever seen for motorcycles :)
Thanks for this video. I would love to see more of the motorcycle stuff here!!!
Loving the motorcycle content! Now ill be sharing this video with any newbies I meet. Great info! Everything covered was exactly what you should do, also it's the stuff you regularly do to maintain your ride. Ride on, brothers!
Send them also to Yammie Noob he has so much knowledge about brands to avoid(thank God I didn't buy a Can Am) and tips and tricks to be a better rider
Yo Jerry, loving the motorcycle content! Please keep it coming, we can all see your passion for two wheels.
I love cars and the car content, but I live around my motorcycle lifestyle.
Whenever I have new riders around me I love sending content like this.
Please do a track day video, people need to know it’s not just for racing but also for proficient riding.
Thanks for giving amazing content and ride safe sir! 🏍
THANK Y'ALL SO MUCH FOR THIS, PLEASE KEEP MAKING MOTORCYCLE VIDS!!!
This was an awesome video. Great for everyone on 2 wheels. They should give this link at every shop, dmv, etc.
Yes, more wrenching on cars and bikes. Jerry's tone at the end there suggests like us he is tired of the way the videos have gone recently... stuff like this is top notch keep it up!
Pretty upset y’all took carvanas money
Excellent overview for any used bike buyer. Well done!
Dude this is 1 of the most informational videos I’ve seen in a long time. The content is clear and concise. Thanks 🙏
Wow what a great video. I have an R3 and this was very insightful. Appreciate this channel!
Was curious what this video was going to deliver on and was surprised how much I learned! I've been watching a lot of Ari Henning's The Shop Manual at Revzilla for these sort of things and it was cool to see how Jerry's perspective is different than Ari's.
Nice job Jerry, I'd love to see more like this on motorcycle and car maintenance. Even on things I already knew how to do it was fun to see someone try it a different way than I learned.
I love this content you guys are making, I just got a bike and this has been super helpful!
Great video. Just got a new (to me) bike, and will be doing all of these. Nice to see you using millimeters.😀
Congrats Jer It's nice to see you with a series that we know you're passionate about. I can tell you've probably worked a good hard time at getting them to make a bike series. I'm looking at hopefully getting my endorsement soon I just can't stand the driver's out here in Albuquerque New Mexico straight up psychotic.
mega interested in more motorcycle and general wrenching content. hope you guys can keep making more of it going forward!
