It’s good to see you back Jim, and offering sage advice that won’t see people injured by scalding themselves. Always a pleasure to watch someone who knows what they’re doing. Oh yeah, I think that called a parting line 👍

I think you’re the only actual bike mechanic on you tube. Plenty of us morons with spanners 🤣 good to see you posting again. Thanks, Rich

It's great to show everybody how much we have to struggle to get things done and how, there are always time consuming things we have to deal with such as broken bolts. Missed your vids buddy.

Great to see you back again Jim,we’ve missed you and the frustration lol

Hello stranger... Love it when you work on Suzuki's as I'm a lifelong Suzuki fanboy... I'm thinking of renewing my patronage as I like what you have planned for 2021.👍👍👍

happy to see another upload from you, waffle and all! :)

Always great watching your videos, professional and instructional perfect viewing tonight👍

Good to see you back in action and as always the trusted apprentice is never far behind

Can’t believe they have the same actuation rod set up that they had on a Suzuki GSX250 c1981 ,on the later model they did a crankcase mod so you could change the oil seal without splitting the engine !

Good to see you back posting, the tip about using a vehicles own engine heat is a good one, I've done that myself in the past, sometimes a day before I were due to start the work, just to make sure that exhaust nuts would turn a bit. That bike does look like a bit of a pig to work on,.....another reason why I prefer vehicles from the 80's now. Lol

Thanks, looking forward to part 2. That’s the strangest hammer I’ve seen for a while

Good to see you back

Pros also swear. This is the proof. Has a gen 1 since 2007, has removed the cylinder and the clutch during the turbo conversion but never separated the crankcase. Good tip, had no idea about that seal and how it's supported.

If you don’t drop some bad language while working on a vehicle your not doing it right haha good to have you back posting

Best wrenching vids on the interweb.

Megan is such a cute kid. And honestly, you're quite hard on your self. You're a great guy, excellent mechanic and anything that the camera buggers up is honestly small stuff.

Nice to see you back 👍

Jim good to have you back. Excellent explanation as usual mate, thanks for sharing this with us. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 😎

just been getting an induction heater. mint for exhaust studs

I am also very scared of L bolts before opening it,i gets nervous.

Bought a gsxr 600 k3 a year and a half ago. Got it delivered to Scotland from England. Started going over the bike and fixing things that I wasnt happy with. Removed the sprocket cover to a expected glorious mess. Upon cleaning up I then realised oil was leaking past the clutch push rod seal. I decided to do it the cowboy way and grind the lip off and pull the seal and push in a new one. its still holding up.I do like to do things the proper way but the hassle involved to put in a new £6 seal was to much for me ha.

Awesome to hear your dulcet tones again. Yes what a crap year. I enjoyed your rambling.

Welcome back!!

Nice to see you Jim, busy time. "Bye bye everybody"...lol 🏍️

Great work quality advice as ever..

yes!! you're back!!!!

Happy to see you back sharing good info, you do waffle but I love it makes me laugh.

Great to have Captain Waffle back ;-)

Welcome back my friend. Nce video to watch on this snowy evening in Bacup, Lancashire. Stay safe

Good to see you back.. . Like the idea of private group. I'd offer to edit the footage of the cb500 but my pc struggles to handle 1080p files and overheats... 😂

I know others have mentioned it, but the ‘DELBOY’ overlay text is absolute gold! Nice one Jim, good work. Also, why is your stock of timber so clean? Mine are all filthy!

Amazing channel

welcome back jim pleasure to watch a craftsman at work

You're always worth the wait waffle on

Making it look easy!

Best thing on KZfaq.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to correct you on this one. I watched another 'Professional' change their Hayabusa coolant a couple of months back and he said you should drain the coolant boiling hot. I do all my coolant changes this way now. My wife now wonders why our first aid box is always empty now....................... Hmmm. Glad to see you making Vids again.

great vid, I was thinking I would have remover the clutch push rod, blocked the hole with something so I could run the engine before do the front pipe bolts..... then they fell out!! so it looks like I would have been wasting my time😒

can never grumpy with a waffle

Waay jims back

Srad's and early K series bike's similar design they didn't change it till around 2005 if memory serves me right 🤔.

Did you remember to remove the spark pluggies ?

Being a gen 1 busa owner. this is music to my ears. thanks for sharing.

What Temp do you run your Ultrasonic at Jim ?

Good to see you back and waffling and your potty mouth we all missed it and your daughter was the star of the vid lol

I've done the seal in a way less professional Very much rigged way. It worked for me, But could very well not work for anyone else. Using a Drimmel with a carbide "Porting" bit. and just grind the Least possible amount of the engine case away until the seal can be pulled out and pressed in nicely. Then used some permatex to make sure it sealed from being pushed out. Yeah It's ghetto, And a horrible idea. But it was a whole lot easier than dropping the engine. Again, This is a Horrible idea, Don't do it. But it does "work", Just if it doesn't, You'll be buying a engine case lol.

Less time stamps, more waffle please.

Fun part is the baby....hes cute.

all Suzuki's have this just split the case's and replace the seal , i would also replace the crank bearing 's while you are there just $100.00 more and maybe the shift forks to

Love the swearing, all ways comes in handy 👌

i look at this and think "wtf Honda, shit design!?" then i remembered Hayabusa is from Suzuki... HJahahahahah

@19:56 starts the real bike talk :)

That very bad suzuki design 'clutch push rod seal is a total pain in the ass ! all that work & time for the cost of a £10 Seal most suzuki use this shit ! Seal set up

Kids are just brilliant make life full of fun. 25:42 You are so right but (as we say in Australia) you never have the right fukin bits. As an aside I'm sure you were an Ozzie, going by your speech pattern.

What a load of waffle!

Will this be another one of your “part 1”.... then never do a “part 2”.........??

That girl is Bri'ish

I never liked the Hayabusa,dislike them even more now.

Good to see you back
