Motorbike Detailing Series Pt3 - Quick Detailing
I just bought a Yamaha decal sticker. Removed the grommets and stuck it on over the holes. Fuck that goofy ass tail light.
How are the decel pops with the Delkevic and stock air intake? I tried a Dean Speed Just the Tip and the decel pops and loudness was too much for me.
Decel pops yeah, that's normal you will have that with any aftermarket exhaust, sometimes mine does backfire and this you can fix it with a tune. But decel pops you will always have that even with the stock muffler, it's just not as loud.
How was the backfire? Assuming you kept the stock air intake. I put the Dean Speed Just the Tip and it was too loud for me and the backfiring felt out of control. I took it off and went back to the stock with the baffle removed. Really thinking about getting this Delkevic.
Super useful thanks
What foot pegs are those? Where did you get them?
They were a really cheap set of mx Footpegs from Ebay. Tbh wouldn't recommend them at all, they didn't move and in the end snapped one off while riding.
@@thediybeard2260 do you know of any that fit correctly and look like those ?
Just bought an SRAD for a winter project. Plan on doing a nut and bolt restoration it. Looking forward to watching the rest of your series on this. Cheers mate
podrias enviar el link para comprar el plato para licencia? te lo agradeceria amigo!
o podrias venderme la pieza que reemplazaste si gustas
yo perdi la luz que ilumina la placa de licencia
Was this the 16" or 21"?
Hey Jez, quick question what are you using to take the bolts out as it looks a lot easier than an Allen key? Cheerz Jon
Just a long Allen with a handle to give better purchase
@@thediybeard2260 cheerz mate is it an 8 or a 10
It’s been many a year, are you gonna do anymore with the SRAD or have you ground to a halt with it?
I done exactly the same, put the sealant inside lol sounds good. Louder than I thought

@@dmenacedI think the backfire you refer to are the deceleration pops. The bolt has these pops even with stock exhaust, you just can't hear them. Only way to limit them with an aftermarket exhaust is with a tune
Hey man, thanks for the video, nice one! Could you maybe provide the instructions for the sissy bar and the dimensions of the spacers, as well as the longer bolts/screws? The company themselves were not able to provide it I just called them.
(I know it is simple as 4 bolts but I need to know the dimensions of them and from the spacers.)
Sorry mate I no longer have the bike to check 😢
@@thediybeard2260 okay still thanks for the fast reply I am going to improvise something
Time to get some more work on the gixxer done 🤘
Update?
Wish there was something like this in the south west in Plymouth I seem to be the only one with a Yamaha bolt I swear 🤣
Showroom address plz ?
SuperBike Factory Snape Road Macclesfield SK10 2NZ, UK
Are the fender bolts the same size front and rear? Thank you
Yes all the same
Couldn't hear a word you were sayting over the music mate.
Hey mate do you remember where you got that black fuel filler cap?
Ebay I searched Scr950 I think
The availability of parts is a huge chain! I can't get side panels for the cafe racer version 😡I hate the key position too....but I love the bike
Nice modification, can u send the website link for the fender eliminator?
I don't anymore sorry but I just search side number plate on ebay and there is plenty similar
So, no matter the weight of the rider, for the back, the desired difference while upright vs while sitting on it should be -40mm right? I just bought the exact same bike and I've been told the the suspension has to be adjusted for my weight and that this comes with a preload for a guy around 95, 100 kg... and I'm in featherweight class :)) (64kg)
Hey there, it’s been a while, when will there be any progress on the SRAD refurbishment 🤘
Hi , what number plate holder is it you have? Fellow Staffordshire white bolt rider 😁
Aup. It's a side mount one that I adapted, think there is a video on my chanel with a link if I remember
I have the exact bike over here in Florida. I’ve been slowly restoring it. It in has 18,000 miles on it and is in pretty good shape.
Nice wheels mate
That’s a good bike my friend
The bolt is a beautiful machine , but your new Kawasaki is awesome 👌
The autobrite addiction helps keep the nice
Definitely agree with what you've said, the tank and the gears are my biggest bug bearer but I do love my bolt. Although I do like where the key is on these. And getting parts in the UK is a struggle but on the flipside it makes you think and actually create yourself for a fully personal touch.
Nice video Jez, still waiting for more work on the SRAD
It will likely be winter I get my ass in gear with that. Weather's too nice not to spend my time off riding or with family
@@thediybeard2260 fair point, ride safe 🖖
i must say i love my bolt as for the tank most of bolt owners are riding around town and short trips if you want a bigger tank just buy a bigger bike with a bigger tank and the seat order a corbin seat it will fill the gap , and as for power how fast do you kneed to go just get a sport bike if you need speed , why not enjoy the ride and have fun ..
I agree and that's why I brought a z1000sx for touring, and like I said at the end of the video I love my bolt despite the bits I don't like
I couldn’t agree more about the gearing...I’m eventually going to break the shifter looking for that 6th gear lol
I thought about doing a pulley swap but do t think it will help

do they let you sit on the bikes to try for size comfort etc, do you have to ask first??
Not been for a while last I checked covid stopped all that. But I'm sure with restrictions going away they might

End of May mate
Ive just bought a 600 SRAD, yours looks great, you've made it look very tidy.
You should see it now its in bits 😭
No start up?
I promise I will soon
Great looking bike , looking forward to seeing it Sunday but don't be disappointed at 2nd place I've heard there is going to be a stunning chrome Royal Enfield Interceptor there 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
Them be fighting words. Cannot wait dude, although I would happily lose to the interceptor.
@@thediybeard2260 unfortunately I can not enter but it will be there on show 👌 great choice you made there Jez 👌
Oh while I’m here, when we gonna get back on the Gixxer refurb, it’s been too long Jez 😉😂
Not being all picky but dad should be wearing his seat belt 😳
Don't even get me started. I tell him all the time 😡
