Virago 1100 Cam Removal
มุมมอง 9733 ปีที่แล้ว
Today I'm pulling the Camshafts out of the engine that still mounted to our 1997 Yamaha Virago 1100. One thing I've learned from Lorant at Midland Cruiser is these XV1100 engines can suffer from oil starvation to the cylinder heads. After finding the back of a Cam broken in the parts motor, we're checking the status on the other set still in the bike. Check out Midland Cruiser at: th-cam.com/ch...

Virago 1100 Engine Teardown Pt.1
มุมมอง 8K4 ปีที่แล้ว
We're tearing down the original motor that came in the Virago 1100. This motor came seized in the bike. It was later replaced by a donor motor... which I seized at high RPM in April, 2020. On the hunt to find out what exactly happened to each motor, we're breaking in the Sled Shed with this series of teardown and inspection videos.

Gracias por el aporte, la mía suena muy fuerte del árbol de levas y no sabía como sacarla
Me podrías ayudar con un problema en mi virago?
Love it!
Gear is backward.
Old video I know but I feel inspired to open my cratered motor. Thanks
So it is safe to remove flywheel with thru bolts instead of puller! Watched a few struggles by U tubers.
About those sleeves on the front cylinder studs, I don’t know what they are but my engine has them too. Only on the front just like yours. And I’ve seen a couple other xv1100 engine tear-down videos and they are all the same way. So all I can say it that it wasn’t a mistake.
Mad respect
Yo man, Got a 81 XV750, one of the pistons melted in the top end (how the seller described it), what kind of work would need to be done to replace a piston?
My assumption would be that the case would probably need to be split apart to access the bottom of the connecting rods. There may be another way to get to them, but I didn't get that deep into the 1100.
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 Appreciate it brother

It is the best to show the mistakes in the video! We all are doing mistakes
Going to do the same tomorrow in Germany, thank you for your helpful videos!
How many miles/km are on the bike?
Good day, do you perhaps know what is the torque setting on the cylinderheads for the yamaha virago VX1100 1998 model?
Good day, what is the torque settings on the head bolts/nuts?
🤣👏🏽 you got this brother! love it man 🍻
What year is she ?
The complete bike is a 1998. We don't really know what year the parts bike is
C'mon bro, don't give up, you got this. The bike has a second wind. At least the piston rod didn't puncture the cylinder. She's on life support you can bring her back. Clean out the metal shavings in motor, buy eBay exhaust valve, good used piston head and new piston rings, new cam chains and do ur valve clearances 0.10mm intake, 0.15mm exhaust valve, buy new valve shems one time, new spark plug, then she's alive n ready again. Please don't give up bro this event will make you stronger, wiser. Don't give up. Everyone on the net let's help this brother, subscribe...💪
really appreciate what you are doing, and obviously you have a lot of knowledge to share. if you could be a bit more descriptive, it would be a lot more helpful. not sure what you didnt like about the sprocket? or even what half the parts where for that matter. Sorry for your loss as well
I'm a little fuzzy on the sprocket but i think it was because it was stamped "R" (figured it meant Rear) but was for the front. Thanks for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it!
I second this comment.
I appreciate both of y'all. I'm very mechanically minded, but at the same time, I'm just a shade tree hobbyist who's just sharing his journey while trying to make things work. I'll try to do better about sharing my experiences moving forward. Thank y'all for watching!
You should have 100000 subs bro 💯
👊 Appreciate it!!!
Great Channel, Great content, if you keep it going like this your subscriptions are gonna skyrocket. keep up the good work.
Appreciate it John! Thanks for watching!
OMG did you push that to the end of the red line...
Pretty much
Rocker shaft make sure you have them in the proper position in the motor the intake and exhaust rocker shaft are different
Appreciate the advice!
The most common problem for rebuild Is people do not notice the rocker arm bushing Oil pilot holes are different from exhaust to intake on the rocker arms you need to be aware of this if not then you will destroy the cams and lock the motor up
Did you get it like that or run it till it stopped?
The damage on that engine was definitely me.
How are you removing that cover thing so easy? I banged on mine all night lol and it won't budge
Which cover?
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 the bushing you took out at 8:14 I'm not sure proper term. Mine is not budging.
@@averydillman2661 Oh, the Camshaft Bushing! Got ya! I removed the little Y shaped retainer, and with the Camshaft bolt partially installed, pried between the back of the bolt and the edge of the crankcase/frame backbone. If you have a slide hammer, it might be easier to bolt it straight into the Cam itself.
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 I might need to get a slide hammer. For some reason mine is so tight
@@averydillman2661 Make sure there isn't any pressure on the rockers before trying to remove the Camshaft by rotating each cylinder to TDC first. It may fight you if it's not lined up quite right as well. I just used the timing mark on the sprocket for reference.
Great Video .... And Well Said Bro !
Hey....... great video Folks ! I live in England UK. I gotta open up my XV1000 motor , as the first gear refuses to engage. I suspect this is a known problem on first gen XV motors , where the hardening on the gears lets go. I got replacement clusters ready to go in. Ride Well & Happy !
Hey Bryan! Glad you enjoyed the video! Im curious what you'll find to be the problem on your XV. Wish you the best of luck on your journey into the crankcase!
14:35 Excuse me, what is that piece for?
The Oil Level Switch/Oil Level Gauge Assembly. When the oil level is low, it's supposed to turn on the oil warning light near the handlebars.
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 Thanks i didn't know!
@@Error-ko9ym Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
OMG, that valve top was bouncing in there quite a lot hammering the piston and the head...😬
OH YEAH! Quite a bit of mixed emotion in this vid. Glad to know what it was after 7 months of sitting. But the carnage had me ROCKED!
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 in your intro video I saw the oil light come on for a moment It might has something to do with it..maybe was a bit low and caused starvation which caused the camshaft to sieze... Only guessing 😉
@@MidlandCruiser It could be. The light would flicker on and off randomly so I would check the level on the crankcase sight glass instead. It's an old motor and been sitting for a while. I revved it out to get the attention of a distracted Tow Truck driver that came into my lane. Should've known better, but it was a knee-jerk reaction. Oh well, now we're making videos because of it!
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 keep sharing your experience, mate. Fun to watch... I thought you are going to drop the bike when lowered the engine... 😁
@@MidlandCruiser It happened last time! We'll get it right someday! 🤣🤣🤣
Will be interesting to see what's the rear cylinder, and piston look like... 😉👍
Good work! Keep it up:)
THERE WILL BE BLOOPERS! no man ever did anything great without a few beeps and bloopers along the way.
Thank you for the shout out my "sloppy" friend 😁 by the way the cams were in the right place. No1 cylinder is the rear so No1 cam goes in there 👍 The union bolt you took out sometimes has little burr left in it, looking down from the threaded end, not the one across. Shine a light from the side and check to make sure the full orifice is clean. 😉
THIS👆 is why you got the shout out! Appreciate it my man! I'll definitely check that out!
Hey I just found your channel great video though. I'm about to tear into mine. I just gotta replace heads and wiring. Think you can do a video on the electrics or wiring? That's the one thing I've put off and idek where to start lmao. But anyways great video keep it up!!
Hey! Welcome! What all do you have to fix with wiring on your bike? Anything in particular?
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 well I had a friend who was gonna help me do a barebones wiring. And I cut up my wiring harness then he disappeared? So now I either have to get a new one and put it in or make one and idk where to start with it.
Man, that's really suckish on his part! I would really like to do a bare-bones build soon. We just might be able to scratch that itch for the both of us! Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@pipedreamscustoms5105 cool bro. Great videos again!
Stick with this it will gain traction.
Appreciate the feedback!
Man I’d love to see a mini series of the Twinstar tear down
That's coming up soon! Thanks for watching!
