YSS FORK UPGRADE ON ROYAL ENFIELD GT 650

I install the YSS fork upgrade on a Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. YSS leaves out a couple of steps for the install and those get filled in. There are some tips for disassembly and reassembly. I discuss adjustment after install and my initial adjustments. Quick review after a 100 miles at the end.
Apologies about the video quality. I got a new camera and it appears it was worth every penny I paid for it. I think I will keep it for long shots, but I need to get something better.

NOT ANOTHER HARBOR FREIGHT TOOLBOX REVIEW

มุมมอง 2242 ปีที่แล้ว

After not doing any videos for about six months, I bought this great Harbor Freight toolbox and had to do a quick review of it. Great price, good build quality, comes in lots of colors NOTE: It looks like the titling got time shifted about 5 seconds. Mistakes are the signature of a What is the Wheel video.

That's right, it turns out the thing to do when you need to run a pump on your Go Kart is to just run all of the fuel back in to the fuel tank. Extra benefit, I will never run out of gas. A T fitting is the best regulator.

SO MUCH PRESSURE, IT'S A FIRE HAZARD

มุมมอง 5442 ปีที่แล้ว

Well....., darn. This did not work out as planned. Turns out even a low pressure regulator needs some back pressure to reach a cut off point. SInce the needle has a very low relief point, the regulator never reaches its cut off point.

Exploding Torque Converter Fixed

มุมมอง 8K2 ปีที่แล้ว

Today I take care of my torque converter problem, turns out Comet clones don't really like being spun over 8000rpm. The Tork-Zilla has ZERO problems with the revs. I solved my leaky carb problem by adjusting the float height and created a new leak with a fuel pressure regulator.

Sorry I had no content last week, my employer decided to see how many hours I could work in 8 days(Turns out to be about 107). I finally got footage of the first start of my 212 Predator edited and here it is. This is a real first start, I did not start it off camera to do a pre-show shake down, and it shows. It does an on-air shake down as the hardware tried to fly off, engine tries to vibrate...

Part II of the throttle linkage build, Part I is here: th-cam.com/video/MibSKLto4Cc/w-d-xo.html A few twists and turns, including my limited skill on the lathe and inability to judge how long it is going to take me to do something, turned this into more of a project than it seemed to be when it was in my head.

Today I build a throttle linkage for my Mikuni VM26 on the the hotrodded Predator 212. Actually, I built half of it but motorcycles were calling and I ran out of time, so next week will be part 2. I have some good ideas on this project but leave a comment if you have any suggestions to make it better.

Predator 212 Mikuni VM26 install, Port Matching=Free Power

มุมมอง 5K2 ปีที่แล้ว

I finally get around to installing a Mikuni VM26 after taking the easy way out and buying a intake/stand off/adaptor. I do a comparison with the stock carb, talk about the carb options and the best part, Power Secrets. That's right Port Matching, a great way to free power. The Predators are a solid base for building a hot motor, but they do have some issues, the manifolds, intake and exhaust, a...

As much as I love the clean and classic look of my GT 650, I needed to be able to carry stuff with something better than a backpack. I ordered the SLC Urban ABS bag kit directly from SW-Motech. The install is easy except for a minor issue with one bolt that is a little to long. The bags hold plenty for running errands and would be fine for a multi day trip although they can't fit a helmet. The ...

Part 2 is here. Not 100% thrilled with the result, it is functional but not the level of finish I like(and my standards are pretty low).

Today we have a little puppet show on how small and terrible the stock exhaust manifold is and I try to make a free flowing one.

GETTING THE MOST PERFORMANCE OUT OF YOUR COMET TORQUE CONVERTER CLONE

มุมมอง 45K2 ปีที่แล้ว

Comet torque converter(TC) clones are cheap on Ebay and we are lured by the low, low price. I wanted to try for Comet performance at the Clone price, but you have to spend money to be broke. The big issue for the Clone is the springs in it are not a known value, we don't know at what rpm they make the clutch engage, we don't know how they respond to belt tension to increase the gear ratio. So I...

I'm waiting for engine parts to show up and I wanted to try a new center channel speaker out, so I build one. This is a flat panel design using Owens Corning Foamular insulation board(1"x2'x2', $6.25). This stuff is amazing for building clean sounding panel speakers. The driver is a Dayton Audio DAEX25VT-4 ($15, I like the DAEX25 Sound Exciters too, and they are $25 a pair). These speakers offe...
