Your really a master mechanic and your videos are much appreciated. I really enjoy your teaching narrative that goes along with each of these videos as your disassembling the Triumph motor. Thank you for taking the time and effort in the creation of these wonderful videos.
this series has been sooo helpful to me,rebuilt lots of vintage Japanese bikes, but doing my first 67 triumph 650 and its been invaluable, also the stores special tools help a bunch.
I always still have the k/start lever attached to the outer g/box cover on cover removal. Stops the cover hanging on the ratchet mechanism like in this video. Keep up the good work.
Just waiting on the "High Quality Screwdriver" Lowbrow merch!
Excellent info. This is the best series on these engines by far.
Great video guys! Please don't make up wait another 4 months for part 5!
Didn't even watch it, already like it. Keep on going. This serie rocks on!
Thanks Todd. Excellent presentation and detail on your videos. Looking forward to the next in the series.
I had an old Suzuki. Im not a violent man. But, the old bike makers, for some reason, loved using Phillips and Regular screws. Long story short, 40 years of corrosion on a Phillips head screw in a tight spot, nearly turned me into a VERY violent man.
Great to be able to watch some great quality vids with my young kids without the usual language associated.... Thanks for the bleeps.
Really enjoyed watching these vids and looking forward to the next one.
Thanks for your efforts,time and sharing of knowledge in some of the best vids on the intaweb
Good vids. I would like to see A LOT MORE CLOSE UPS! Nice job guys.
Yes, should be at least 50% close up. I feel like watching someone work on a motor from the next room without my glasses.
This guy is giving me confidence to go into my Bonnieinthebarn.
I would't let that clown work on my lawn mower...
Munster be the most informative videos on CZcams thanks Todd!,
So damn helpful. I'm inspired to give it a go! I hold you entirely responsible...
Found my answer , can't wait for new video Thanks from John and Paul
Superb, many thanks
Thank you. Great video. Greetings from Scotland.
Purchase a hand impact diver set for the stubborn screws and save yourself a ton of grief. The import ones are very inexpensive and they work great! Far better and much faster than the 'chisel ' method, and no damage created in the process. I've used mine for years, still works fine!.
I took my 650 apart 40 years ago in 1980 and I don’t recall having any of the fancy tools you have in this video. I’m not sure just how I got a lot of that stuff off. (??? ) I just know I didn’t hurt anything and got it all back together and it was one of the ‘ oil tightest ‘ Triumphs ever.
I took it apart to get the crank assembly out to attempt balancing it better for it was so bad you could hardly sit on it. I did not take the sludge trap apart as I didn’t even know about it, so now after it has been sitting the last 30 years I am going to do just that.
It’s going to be an awesome time trip
Wish you could remember and share your secrets. Maybe when you do it now it will all come back to you. You start?
you make it look fun. thanks for the info. im going in garage rite now!! I have a 71 Daytona left out in the rain. ugh!!
Thumbs up!!!.......Great info!!!!!!!
Good Video
well i was trying to remove the camshaft gears but i could not hold the tool tight enough with pipe pliers as shown in the video so milled 2 flats to suit a 1" inch open wrench and it was much easier....just FYI. mark
I've followed these videos all the way through. I'm about to pull the timing gears on a 66 T100SR. It'd be real cool if you guys posted part 5 soon.
J. T. Working on the edit now, sorry these are extensive and take a long time to produce
Boy, they sure are extensive. I wish I knew as much about anything as your guy does about taking that engine apart. Thanks for the heads up.
I wish I had my mother still to show me that at 30:20. It's remarkably like gutting a chicken. 'And we have the gizzard... and we have....'.
Been following this series to disassemble my dads triumph and his Timing Gear must have been over torqued cause i had to place the motor on some wood blocks and stand on my breaker bar just to break through those game LH Nuts
How would you have undone the kickstart ratchet if it hadn't been slack? I slacken all shaft nuts on the right hand side of the engine while I can still lock up the primary transmission. If you leave the cylinder barrels on until you are ready to split the crankcases, you don't have to worry about the rods getting damaged as you turn the crank.
When using a pullerto remove a gear which is very tight, is it not a good idea to tap on the end of the puller before tightening it further and possibly damaging the puller.
26:05 " and the racheting gear itself, lock tab....hot dog?..."
@12:25 Todd, what do i do if the last 200 lb gorilla put the exhaust cam gear in with a socket and hammer? The threads are trashed and i can't pull the gear. My only thought is to weld some bolts to the gear and pull that way. Anyone tips/tricks?
wish you had mentioned what sockets to use on taking off cam gears. guess l'll have to figure it off and buy sockets which will only be used in my lifetime..nuts
I was beginning to think this gentleman did not swear enough to be a real mechanic...
Yes an hand impact driver is needed of course.....Todd is proficient in other aspects......a $20 bill dropped on the table at a tool shop would take care of that.....I use bits from a hardware store , carpentry bits , set in a 1/4" socket on the 3/8" drive of the impact driver.....the offshore bits can be brittle..............a swing above your head with the dead low hammer isn't always necessary ....tg.
Hi Todd ,what do you use for engine stand ?
Cheers Philip
Watch the first episode. All will be revealed
If doing this with the cases still in the frame, a dab of grease on the end of the exhaust cam will prevent the "chinga" from falling off.
I am working on the same model engine... my ratchet gear isn't coming off it seems to be stuck. Does anyone have a way of taking it off? 25:50
remove the entire cover with the mainshaft still attached and try a deadblow hammer once the nut has been removed. If you have more questions feel free to give me a call. 1855-456-9276 and push for tech support. - Todd
Anyone have a running count of how many special tools he’s used?
40 years ago all I had was a cheezy two- jaw puller. I don’t know just how i got a lot of that stuff apart ( ?? ). Now I’m making a lot of pullers and things. Broke down and bought clutch hub puller as that one is too hard to make without a lathe.
"never use a screwdriver to pry off a cover " Gawd, how many times have I seen this !!! too many frickin times .
Brilliant stuff! Please can you give me the wrench sizes for the cam and pinion nuts - BS or Whitworth? I want to ensure I have the correct tools before I start. Greetings from sunny Phuket.
Depends upon year pre 68 probably 5/8 whitworth after 68 1" AF . Though Triumph used up the stock they had so you can get bikes with AF and Whit on same engine!
Everything on this motor requires some type of puller holy shit lol nothing like rebuilding a dirtbike or a harley
What's the deal with the "key" in the exhaust cam? WTF is it? What"s it's function, etc. etc.?
I like to watch these for the cursing.
32:37 Don't know how many times throughout the ''Dexter'' series... i wanted to hear that little bastard say that!
Proly already know of this but thought you might dig up on Triumph's little known Valor...

Every decent day here in Texas, i straddle the dollar a cc '68 Trophy Sports i'd bought 2nd hand in '73

Drive on with the 650 autopsy & re-birthing. You save a lotta owners, a lotta grief,
thru you're shared knowledge proving the fact that... "You're best fight, is the one that never happened!''

This is great. This guy is great. But hang on it’s not a diy job at all .............unless you have this puller, and that puller, and the other puller.
I would never tackle this, it’s way too difficult. Thank god for moto mechanics.
21:55 Ha!!!
If Triumph engines are so difficult to disassemble why do they fall apart so easily 🤔
only the triumph godz know that. lol ahahha
....where is Part 5 ???
It's still in production, we are releasing them as we get them done. sorry for the delay.
no problem :) ...keep up the great videos !
Any motorcycle mechanic that does not have a impact screwdriver missed the first day of class. IMHO.
It was a game changer for me
Great video but it is really poor practice to use a ratchet with a fork tube attached . They are not designed for it and you are asking for an injury! You should use a sliding bar with the fork tube all socket sets come with one.
Ok got it apart and tools did make job easier. But where to go from there?? Where's the other videos . Come on
John El part 5 is finishing up and should be live Monday. Sorry for the delay... these are extensive pieces to film and put together. We are trying our best to film and edit these as time allows.
