Pressurized with 100+psi of air, a torch, and no safety glasses. I too like to live dangerously!

Flame on - check . Glasses off - check . Job done - check , glasses on. Safety third - check . Lol

I marveled at all the flammable degreasers and paint propping up the pipe as he heated it up glowing red

I guess he is a very skilled mechanic and knows what hes doing. Personally I would use some sort of protection, because I would hate have a glowing hot metal balloon popping in my face.

Good thing he has glasses protecting the top of his head!

150 psi? What? Everyone else uses 60 psi but I must admit this is the best finished product I’ve seen

Bloody good! Those clamps look pretty straight forward to make!!

I've done this with water. Fill up the pipe with as much water as you can get into it and stick it in the freezer, no caps are necessary. If the first freeze doesn't get the dents out simply let the water melt and do it again. It's really cool how it works and way easier.

Mick is a Legend, knows his stuff, ex racer and bike mechanic took some big dents out of my sherco 300 pipe yesterday, came up like new. But yeah I know of people who tried to do it themselves and blew out the pipe so only get it done by someone who knows what they are doing.

Your method looks so relaxing...other guys video always use water give preasure interior to fixed it.

Thats it! Its so easy! You are a great expert! Great idea!

Excellent demonstration!

I was at Farleigh castle back in 82 as I lived next ti the track. It’s still there and still has memories. Noyce, Thorpe and so many others I filmed there back in 2010.

Nice job! Good consistency.👌

I was waiting on a huge bang !

Wow that really is like magic, not seen this procedure done before, brilliant.

Been doing this for years and have never needed to use heat like this, just the kit to block the pipe and a jet wash, always looks perfect

Nice job! Thanks for posting.

You're a f'n artiste, mate!

Some inexperienced person has probably died trying to do this.

My HERO! Safety consultants steer clear away from his part of the country!

I’ve filled a gas tank with water, creamed a raw potatoe in the filler and stuck the tank in the freezer. Got the dents out of my tank. Could do the same, maybe, with the expansion chamber - if your freezer is big enough. Great trick. Thanks for sharing.

Super talented

just amazing!

Had my FMF pipe fixed this way. If you don't your shiny pipe being heavily discolored from the flame, it's a great method. If I had a 2 stroke ever again, I'd get a non-nickel finish to avoid this and I don't care for shiny pipes.

Au Master I am left speechless, Gift !!!

Amazing work thanks for sharing this video ❤️

Did this a few times back in the 80s after l was shown by a mate. Never a problem though l never used that much pressure. Pipe always sat better after dents taken out as it de stressed it as it returned to its original shape.

thought i was the last person actually doing this , .. nice to see im not alone , I was taught how to do this thirty years ago by a trials bike rider.

Jeez, it worked brilliantly but a face visor is surely a must

Nice job. Looks like new.

The best repair guy on internet)

excellent work

ME SORPRENDIO ROTUNDAMENTE LA MEMORIA DE ESTE HOMBRE, PERDONA LA DE ESTE ESCAPE HAHAHAHA

Great jobb! Thanks fore shareing! ❤️👍

Great tip thanks for sharing.

I have tried the freezer trick, fill up with water , make sure the low area with the dint is at the bottom of the water lever.put in big chest freezer, then watch, I check every 5 minutes once it’s close to freezing. And with big dints you need to let it melt, a bit to fill the dint depression then freeze again.

Great name for you business!

Great idea... Greetings from Germany....

Brilliant, thanks mate!

The "Clamps" are just split bearing pullers, available everywhere! Easy to fab the plates

Nice job mate

Awesomeness 👍💪✅ Thank You 👍

I haven't 2 stroke bike but it's good to see this

Wow so fast,nice work

I do this kind of stuff all the time. I like to keep my aerosol cans closer to the action though.

Brilliant!

Ótima ideia 👍👍👍

I wonder how much the pressure increases with the heat, and decreases with the metal un-denting. Be interesting to put a gauge on it.

150psi compressed air and red hot metal (probably making psi closer to 180 or so). and no safety glasses, lol. legend. i wouldnt have the courage to do that.

Anyone mechanical seeing that done for the first time is amazed, only more amazing when you freeze water but that takes longer, is harder to seal and doesn't do as good a job......oh and it can burst the pipe if left too long, but freezing can work wonders, the tip was to seal the big end and pre-freeze that section up to the first dent, then fill the rest and seal the little end, the ice block made a better seal..... i guess you could also freeze the little end before the whole pipe, some pressure would always gets out.

What I do is get a pressure washer. Weld one and preferably the larger end then make a clamp to fit around the pressure washer nozel inside the other end weld that up then blast in the water it pushes most of the dings out to near perfect

Brilliant

great mate how much does it normally cost of you took to a shop to do

Always a good idea to store your aerosol cans right behind the exhaust you're heating up with propane. Good job sir.

I have a vespa px... Recently put a 'sterling' look a like on... It looks well made not cheap.. Think is someone said it could seize my engine?? Now i wont ride it........ Is this correct??

Ive seen a guy use just a pressure washer. Worked like a charm.

Ok very good great work

Excellent! Would this work for a copper pipe ?

Sick man!!!

Very cool technique!

Спасибо за видео!!!👍👍👍

Nice information. It looks like he almost leans into the flame at about 1:34 :-o

Like magic, wow! So clever. Also the guy who fills with water and freezes the pipe, ha ha! Your minds are so creative. I have to fix multiple dents in a thin aluminum cover for very expensive speakers ($3200!!) and the covers are slightly domed. I'm doomed with the dome! No clue how to do this. I cannot compromise the paint job and any nick will show up on that white. Any ideas folks?

What most won't appreciate is that while he is making it look easy, it is a artisan skill that takes a long time to develop. He knows instinctively what heat/colour the material is at it's yield point and melting point - he stays between those two very tight tolerances while still guiding the internal air pressure to apply force in exactly the right place at the right time. Masterful.

What tip did you use? Is that a rose bud tip on the torch???

Excellent. does it work with steel tubes frame dents? i mean MX frames , dents we often find under the engine cradle?

if you try to polish it, does it come back as before?

I wonder if the psi Inside increased with the heat also, good job on the pipe, looks braw 👍

You can also tap it lightly around the dents with a hammer, and it will come out easily. Protection is a good idea too, eyes specially

I used to just fill my pipe with water and freeze it for a few days the ice expanding would pop all my dings out.

I use the hydro method and it puts the pipe back in mostly original shape and pops out some of the dent then I use this method to pop out the dent!

can you also do that on a stock 2 stroke street bike pipe? just wondering....

Pretty cool always wondered how they get the dents out! Should be wearing safety glasses

Terrifying! I nervously waited for the pipe to POP the entire time.

Hey, forgot to show us the before and after. I found out these pipes are real thin 20 gauge metal. If they went with a 14 or 16 gauge it prevent a lot of dents. The added half pound will not affect a riders speed. It won’t be the difference in first place of 2nd place for sure

Do the clamps do anything else except hold the pipe in place? How important is this? Is that an air hose connected to the end of the pipe? Could have given us more information about the setup.

Perfect

Good video. I remembered how nervous I was the first one I done. It worked good through

Muito bom. Qual pressão de gás foi usada dentro?

@Transmoto• Will this technique work on 4 stroke pipes as well?

Genius. 😎

What maximum psi do you pressurize the exhaust?

amazing

Nice . I think i will make up some clamps and start doing a few jobs like this .

Think heating a chrome polished grill guard will pop out the dents as well I hit a pole

How much air pressure do you put in the pipe?

Were do you buy the bungs in the uk

What are the clamps called? I need to try find one

If you watch this clip fully, you'll notice the artistic ability being presented. Amazing example, and very straight forward. I am willing to bet that it took years of finesse, to perfect this work. 😮

Thanks for that

got to love metal memory

Where can we get these clamps at?

How many Micks are there down under?

could you use rubber expansion plugs (freeze out plugs) as long as the dent wasn't too close to the plug?

what psi ya got in there when doing the work as surle u woodnt wanna put 100 psi blow the welds appart

1:32 almost reallll bad

That’s the torch I use to heat my dabber

Do you think you can do this to a aluminum alloy gas tank

How much psi or kpa if you use that Unit?
