Anyone know what size and thickness this thrust bearing washer is? And where can I buy it? Lost mine

Did I miss something? Or was there no clipping when you were doing your sweep? Edit: I just realized this was from seven years ago lol. But hey! If you see this, I would like to know…

That washer does cause noise I have a bafang motor and was driven crazy by noise I accidentally forgot to put that ring back and boom the noise was gone.

Hi srltill have friend ebike? I have 2. I think 1 has a bad hall senser. Going to check this week

Fuck yeah!!! Fucking fish!!! I FUCKING LOVE FISHING!

Do the Motors always come out the gear side not the side where the brake disc is

Would a bad Hall Sensor cause studdering from a start?

Definitely dont toss that washer, its a plain thrust bearing, its there to protect the motor from any side-side force

gear or clutch...

Interesting, I've greased up the gears because I was getting the same noise. Had an issue when I put it back though. I think I'm missing the washer you talked about

I have. Same noise problem on my. Scrambler juiced bike please. Help

the key is not magnetic..

3:58 try greasing planetary gears

Watched your Munson Island adventure exactly 10 years after this video was shot! Time flies!

I wonder if a 1000W motor will fit in that hub.

My ebike is noisy only sometimes, but other times not noisy... But if I let off the throttle and reapply some times it goes away, sometimes it very loud. I took it apart didn't see anything wrong. SO I ordered one way clutch and nylon gears, also ordered a tire and tube because it was bald and flat. I re-assembled the motor, just waiting on a new tire that should be here tomorrow. I hope this fixes it.

Replace the gears with steel. You also need grease for the gears to clear the clicking sound.

Do you have a link to purchase these gears , thanks

bafang one of the most expensive and planetary gears are in plastic ! wow now i m sure i ll never buy any of their products at all

Side note: it's amazing how many more motor teardown video's hit TH-cam since I put this out. I'm so glad there is more info available now. It's good for everyone.

Following up on this. I haven't replace the gears yet. I have them just haven't put them in. Next couple weeks I should be able to do it and will to an update video. Thank you to all that responded and found the video helpful.

Where the grease, replace the gears and clean big metal gear and put in blue aviation grease, your gears will love you.

Sounds totally normal.

All throughout my early days of r/c cars, we always upgraded the nylon gears to metal, regardless of the extra noise. We did this for reliability. We reassembled with good grease and the motors and transmissions were rock-solid and happy over several race seasons. This coming winter will be my 5th riding season on my Bafang 750 fat ebike motor and I'm going to replace the planetaries with metal gears that I already purchased last year. The whole point is that my 70 pound fat bike is not gonna get pushed home 20 miles because the planetary nylon gears failed like all the RC cars that we used to run. I'm not pushing that pig home! I know it will be noisier, but on my bike local path that may be a good thing. Also, you can get copper gears as well as steel. Not sure what the difference in sound or longevity is. If I'm successful, I'm going to put together kits along with the security bit in grease for the Bafang 060.

Sounds totally normal for this motor. They all make this sound.

i took this motor apart exhausted and literally forget how the two lockrings go on. lol

grease the hell out of it and stick it back together

Couldn't they drive the outer black shell directly, instead of going through the planetary gears? 🤔

how to fix this problem?

@4:46 what type of grease/lube would you use on planetary gears?

Motore fuse short

I have a bike with a bafang M155, it's a 750W motor. The motor is the opposite orientation where the cable comes out the brake side rather than the standard cassette side. To get the motor out I have to get the main planetary ring gear out of the hub. I've tried pullers with no success. How do you get that main ring gear out?

This is awesome

Each gear has bearings, each bearing has needle rollers, in one of the bearings one or more needle roller has worn a flat spot on it, that's what's your hearing, if it seized, locks up, and it will sooner than later, then the race will turn around the shaft ruining the shaft so Right now it might only be the cost of the gear. It's usually the nylon teeth that wears out first.

Did you solve the clicking

What’s the best grease and brand to use? White lithium? Thanks

There's barely any grease in there

it's very dry it Suppose to be Completly Saturated with Grease to protect the Teeth anything with moving parts should have lots of Grease

Great video. I used it to run a 4 AWG wire and it worked perfect. I got in and out quickly and now want to run a 0 AWG wire. What are your thoughts on me using the 4 AWG wire to pull thru a 0 AWG wire. Any chance? Thanks.

A whole lot of work just to get a wire thru the firewall. Oh for the days gone by when it was easy to get a wire thru the firewall. I wonder if getting a wire thru beside the steering column would work....

My Bafang 8fun does knor knor knor just like a hungry pig looking for food. I think its are the bearings ? Have 13000 km's on the road.

Think I will just drill another hole in a spot easier to get to, then put a rubber plug in it.

Plastic?

Too complicated. Better use one under the carpet on the driver's side.

5:27 "What's that clickin' noise?" Thanks for posting! Did the new bearings cancel the noise?

Thanks for posting this I just bought 10 bikes with this motor...good to know its serviceable.

Hello, what are the specs of the controler ? Thanks

It sounds like the clutch

Any resolution to the noise after replacing the gears?
