After a rocky start (fuel starvation) the Seca is running great after being parked for 20 years! A lot of work has been put into this bike to this point so check out the other uploads and see the progress this bike has made!
Seca 750 Float Height/Fuel Level Adjustment
มุมมอง 6K6 ปีที่แล้ว
It isn't stated in my Haynes manual where the dry height measurement is taken. In this video I show where I was able to get the spec measured from and how to take a wet fuel level measurement on the XJ750 carburetor. I have not been able to verify the dry measurement location. You should take caution when setting your carbs. please leave a comment if you know of the manufacturers measurement lo...

Seca 750 restoration project (walk around)
Im having water in my oil. I performed the tear down of my impailear and fowned my bearings to be in poor shape. Is the a video for the proper removal of the bearing rings?
Had my vulcan 13 years now, it's an 05, and I never bleed the system. Siphoned the master cylinder and bleed it every 3 or so years. Just did the pads with some $15 Amazon Chinese stuff, they were legit. Anyways, the lever bottoms out now so my trick to get the air out is to zip tie the brake handle closed overnight. Learned it from a forum 13 years ago when it was new to me and I wanted to do maintenance on it. Worked great. This bike is something, love and hate it.
Question for you... I am tearing down my Vulcan 750 as well. I don't have the correct bolt to thread into the stator motor pulley, do you know the bolt size to pull the stator shell off the shaft?
How many quarts did it take?
The electrical connector at the coils detaches from coil frame without removing frame. The whole connector slides off backward from spline. Hope that makes sense.
I have owned three Vulcan 750s, two of them bought new. The Vulcan 750 engine is a nightmare from hell. 16 valves, hydraulic lifters, four camshafts, four cam chains, 2 jackshafts, 4 spark plugs, a counterbalancer, rubber engine mounts, a positive neutral finder, liquid cooling, external oil lines, the worst carburetor design ever (but at least it's better than EFI) shaft drive with a separate front bevel drive gearbox, automatic cam chain tensioners designed to fail, a stator you can't get to without removing the engine, and the most convoluted intake system I've ever seen. Also notice just how close the coolant passages are to the cylinder bores and the outside of the head. The head gasket is very narrow around those passages, and leaks are not uncommon. It has twice as many parts as it needs. It has twice as many parts as my H-D Sportster engine. You have to wonder just what kind of a person thought this up. Most people familiar with this engine believe it was redesigned and modified several times before being put into the Vulcan in its final form. I think it may have originally been intended as a chain drive sportbike engine. That could explain its hydraulic valves, since in the Vulcan frame there is no way to get the covers off to adjust the valves, the fact that you cannot remove the stator cover with it in the Vulcan frame, and the obviously added on bevel drive gearcase. It's certainly not the sort of thing someone would design for a v twin cruiser. Aside from its excessive complexity and automotive appearance, it has the wrong characteristics for a cruiser. It has decent power, but the much better looking and far less complicated Suzuki Intruder 750 engine has more. And it has the wrong sound, feel, and lack of low end torque. I'd sure like to know the true story behind this Frankenstein engine. On the good side, I did manage to get 118,000 miles out of one before a broken cam chain destroyed it.
When you take off the original air box with all those hoses to put in the new AirPod upgrade what happens to all those hoses?
love your video on the break down and rebuild of the Vulcan, I am taking on the same myself. love how you move through it all patiently. You mentioned your found a replaceent empeller shaft. Where did you find one? that would be a big help at this time for me which I am worried I may need to replace mine and the parts supplier I work with informed me that the part is discontinued.
What’s the part number for the first seal. I’m in luck where mine is seeping clear coolant. So I might be able to get away with just replacing that seal u ripped off. And what’s the torque spec for the impeller once I put it back on?
Send any good links to have to old XJ repair info
👍👍👍 Thank you for this clear and simple lesson. "They don't make it easy to change the coolant" is an understatement. They Make it near impossible for DIY. Thank you.
Is it possible to reset the valve cam timing without doing a complete teardown???...
I followed this system about one year ago on my 2004 heritage, it was easier than I thought it would be. ( I'm not very handy.) My bags still look great, and I give them a good rubdown with mink oil about once a year. Thank you for putting this on utube. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ!!!
The title said adjusting the floats but you didn't adjust anything😢.
Where did u get the o rings for the water pipes into the top of the heads
Hello, for an optimal adjustment of the carburetor, I would like to kindly know from you how many complete turns I have to unscrew the air-fuel pilot screw. Thank you very much
Where did you source your air valve block off plates?
What's the OEM part number for the water pump rod bearings and mechanical seal parts? Where did you order from?
Incredible video. Nice job showcasing what you've done here. It's very helpful!
blown head gasket over pressuring the cooling system
I used your method and it works great. What are the #8 washers for? I put them inside the #10 finish washers so wjen tightend down they did not cut into the leather. Was I right?
Hello sir good job sir i need learn rediator fiting full kit plz make a video on rediator
Assuming this page is active, my temp gauge isnt giving me a reading, any tips?
Where did you buy the carburetor air cleaner and omissions blank of plates?
Hey brother, I have a question..I just bought my 2008 Vulcan and the fan from my radiator seems to never turn on. My question is When is it supposed to kick on?? I don't write it hard, at least not yet I've only taken it for some simple cruises
Had you ever done this before at the time? How long over all did it take? And what about overall cost if you don't mind me asking, i mean with all the pieces, gaskets and specialty tools purchased.
Thanks for your videos. They have really helped me. I already fixed the temperature gauge on my motorcycle.
Really gotta thank you for the vid, not sure if I’ll cut the hole for the needle at first. But found the DIY online mentioning the 142 main and the 42 pilot. Hoping that helps me idle better and not run lean. You should make a video on installing the A/F gauge and O2
Want to do the air filter cone mod, any idea what size I need and if I need to adjust the carbs
Just did it on mine, you’re gonna need to rejet(I went with 142 and 42) 2 needle shims per side, gonna wanna coaster the reed valves as well I went with 2 1/2 turns out from bottom on my rear carb for the air fuel and 3 out on the front
Also KN RC2340 fits mine perfectly
@@Dave-nu3nt can’t find the reed valve covers anywhere even tried eBay, any websites? And it just un bolts? No springs under it?
When doing the timing, when the front jug is at top dead center, is the rear jug 180 out?
Where are you located I need mine rebuilt
great job with very thorough explanations!
I clearly see the temperature spade connection on the bike. Thanks for your videos.
I think the wire on my Vulcan must have gotten loose. On 6:33, did you just slip off the wire or is it tightened with a nut? I know very little about mechanics and do not want to lift the gasoline off unless I can see a loose wire.
Yes that wire is a spade connection. It just slips on and off. You will at the very least need to take all of the tank mounting bolts out and you might get lucky and be able to lift the tank enough to get to it. You might be able to see the loose wire if you take the side reflector cover off and get a flashlight in there.
@@hundleycycleshop8876 I REALLY appreciate your quick reply. I subscribe to your videos. My bike is a 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan just like yours.
@@hundleycycleshop8876 I FINALLY lifted the gasoline tank maybe two inches and I could see the wire was OFF so the temperature gauge would not work. I just put the wire back and it started to work! Thank you so much. You saved me some money and a trip to a motorcycle shop mechanic/store.
I have a 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 750 and the temperature gauge stopped working. Any advice? Are there any fuses or "plugs" that might have gotten loose?
Ótimo trabalho! Se for do teu conhecimento, sabe me dizer qual pneu traseiro de carro serve na vulcan e qual a medida ? Obrigado
If you find that your brakes are a little spongie,Apply grease to the bleeding nipple and snug up the plastic tube and repeat
This is possibly old seals but I would do a flush and make sure that's not what was causing the pressure issue. Also check to make sure coolant overflow tank feed line is not kinked shut, check the cap and make sure it allows flow to the coolant tank when bike gets hot, and the temp switch for the fan . The right coolant in these bikes does matter. Any one of these could be responsible for the issue. Not a shop mechanic just stating the steps I would take.
Thanks, makes me much more confident I'll be able to do it myself if needed!
hola, necesitas conseguir el tensor adecuado ( parte azul ), eso te va a dañar las cadenas y arboles de levas , te lo digo por que yo tengo ese problema por ese tornillo
buen vídeo ¡
Hey nice vídeo thank you, I have a question ,I have a 1988 1500 kawasaki vulcan se,and it only have 1 thermal switch on the bottom of the radiator can you make a vídeo explaining how the fan is supposed to kick in without having a fan switch?
Nice video, I have 1500cc 1988 vulcan, I just took everything apart to paint, but now my cooling fan isn't kicking on I Change the cooling switch and the fan but still not not working, can you make a vídeo of how the the whole cooling system works including wiring?
Alguien que traduzca cula hera la falla por favor en español
Thanks bud this helped
When you close the valve and feel for lever stiffness/resistance have you previously screwed and tightened the top of the reservoir PRIOR to checking it?
Hi, Sorry I know it's a simple process but not enough detail for a novice. You've obviously done it before but some of us haven't.
Thank you! I have the same issue 😕
Well I can officially say it’s the first time I’ve ever had a problem with my 750. My Shift bar came unscrewed So I’m in the process of taking apart the whole engine just to get to it your video has helped quite a bit for teardown I’m just having some trouble Splitting the 2 half’s of the engine apart
There are pry points along the case. I put a big flathead in those locations and used an adjustable wrench on the screwdriver for leverage. Best of luck!
@@hundleycycleshop8876 Thank you! I ended up getting the case apart but slight problem I think somebody Put Loctite on it all the way around it’s a bit broken up and jagged And a bit powdery around the whole seem. Sanded it off but that’s still a bit odd
@@Diebesten162 yes I seem to have had that issue as well. I was finding crusty bits of who knows what in various places. Could be lock tight or as hard as it is to image, it could be dirt from the road. Once it's all cleaned up. It will go back together nicely. Good work!
@@hundleycycleshop8876 I am painting the engine black and adding silver highlights to the fins It was a bit of a disappointment when the shifter failed but it’s my first vehicle and there’s always room for improvement and customization that’s the fun of it!
