Hello Zach599. Thank you for your kind words, and this comment. Take Care Jim

Hello Don. Thank you for your comment, I'm glad you found it useful. I find it quite amazing that a chap tinkering in his shed in England can be of help to some one thousands of miles away in Michigan. I assume you have been having trouble with petrol taps on an old BMW? Take Care Jim

Hello ritacustard8035. Sorry, I have only just found your comment. Thank you for your kind words. How did you get on repairing the R100S petrol tap? Hope all went well. Take Care Jim

@@CYC123 Thanks Jim, I followed your video and it went very well. Back on the road now.

Hello Boxertwin1. I'm glad you found my video interesting, and thank you for the comment and subscription. R100RS, good bike, more power than my R75. Take Care Jim

Hello Peter. I’m pleased you enjoyed my video, thank you for your comment. Take Care Jim

Hello Dennis Thanks again for another comment, I agree with you 100%, it seems everything these days is made to be used once, and then thrown away, I think this is sad, but keep my fingers crossed that perhaps things will change as the next generation comes along. Keep well Jim

Hello Paul Thanks for the comment, you will now be prepared if you ever get a BMW airhead boxer with a dicky fuel tap!

Hello Sandy. Thank you for your comment, and good luck in the garage. I assume you are going to work on your BMW petrol taps? Take Care Jim

Hello nreid99 Thank you for your comment. At the moment my clutch is working just fine so no plans to pull it out. I do however need to check the valve clearances, and change the steering head bearings, perhaps more on that later. Take care Jim

Hello Mr Smith. Thank you for your comment, have fun with your R60/6 it a good bike. Take Care Jim

@@CYC123 if you have a minute, do you have a list of the tools I’ll need to cover basic maintenance?

Hello Mr Smith. A list of tools to service your BMW. I don't have a list already written out, let me think, this could be dangerous! OK, You will need a set of metric open ended spanners. Set of metric hex Allen keys. Set of cross head and straight screwdrivers. Pair of pliers is always useful. Plastic funnel to allow easy pouring of oil into the engine. You need a way to get oil into the gearbox, some plastic bottles of gear oil come with a plastic tube fitted to their tops, they work well. Keep an empty bottle with its tube in a plastic bag, this comes in useful if the next bottle of oil only has a screw top and no tube. I have an old large metal hypodermic I found at a yard sale, you will have seen this if you have watched my servicing videos. This works well for injecting oil into gearbox, final drive and also the forks. Spark plug spanner. A buzzer or electrical meter to go across the points when you need to set the ignition timing. A set of feeler gauges to set points gap and spark plug gap. Paper towel for cleaning as you work. Tyre pressure gauge. Foot or hand pump for setting tyre pressure. That's all I can think of at the moment, I hope that helps and I haven't forgotten anything. Take Care Jim

@@CYC123 thank you for that. Much appreciated

Hello Mr Smith. I hope you have many years of riding then servicing your bike. Take Care Jim

Hi Chief Eng Thank you for your comment and kind words. You watched the whole series two times...... A glutton for punishment! As it happens I need to check the valve clearances on my R75, and the steering head bearings are a bit worn as well, keep your eye on the channel, you never know! Take Care Jim
