BACK WITH A BROKEN BIKE - REBUILDING A DRZ400 ENGINE
The Suzuki DRZ 400 I've been enjoying broke. This video shows you how I fixed it. The cam chain tensioner broke, allowing the timing (synchronisation of the top and bottom ends of the engine) jump. This meant that pistons and valves smashed into one another.
I had to learn how to rebuild the top end of the engine. The most useful things that helped me do this were friends, a valve spring compressor, a Clymer manual and parts from eBay.
A very brief breakdown of how it went:
Remove engine from frame, remove top end of engine, rebuild top end of engine, replace top end of engine with new cam chain tensioner and gaskets, place engine back in bike, ride bike again.

    I have a Super cub C125 as you say the seat is crap if your over 5ft 9ln .I bought a bench seat from Ebay cost £150 but still like riding with a plank strapped to your bum ...Not to be beaten I had extra foam and a none slip cover fitted . My riding position is about 2 inches higher for the moment but its very very comfy I can travel all day at 45 to 50 .The 1 other thing I have had fitted is a buzzer on my indicators as a few times I have had a few near misses

    Bought a 24 end of July in London and drove it 4300 miles round trip to Dracula’s castle in Romania in 5 weeks. Had a great time and I was only disappointed on long inclines when I had to drop down to 20-30 mph. I highly recommend putting rear tire on front, tracks so much better in the rain and mud Also cut down my HD windshield and attached it using mirror extenders. Had a welder make me up a set of forward pegs for stretching out and that was a game changer for comfort. Bought a two liter extra gas tank that I hung off the side but rarely needed it Brought a collapsible top box with me from USA and it held all my gear. Also brought along a spare prong chain which I switched out on the way Even with good lubrication on a regular (300miles) basis I was out of adjustment in less than 3600 miles I bought one in Colorsdo first to test out mods and since it was good here I decided on the Drac ride Haven’t seen another one in the US nor did I see one in Europe Those almost 130 million sold must include 129 million in Asia

    As someone looking to get into biking, but living in London with no interest in doing long camping trips etc…how would you say this CT125 stands up against say a Grom (MSX) or a Suzuki VanVan. I’ll be mainly pottering around suburbs of London, might ride it into the city (but on avg 40mph motorway and typical congested inner city London roads) with the occasional trip on say a motorway to see friends who live just out of London (1hr away). I was torn between a Grom and VanVan but saw this and now completely confused 😂😂

    • @EpohDerf
      @EpohDerf 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Stirring your own gears with a clutch feels nice and the CT125 doesn't let you do that. I've never tried a grom but would love to. However, if your choices, I reckon the best for rough roads is a van van (get a 200 if you can find one). As for motorway, the CT25 will do it, perhaps even all day but that's not what it is for. If you can try all 3, that's going to be the biggest help in deciding. If you can't, get one rather than deliberating too long. The best bike is the one you're on! If you don't like it, just sell and try the next.

    Hi - please advise: the SC125s here is the USA are not sold with rear footpegs or seats, but as you know they are available and I have them for mine. The max weight listed is 234lbs. I became aware of this motorbike last year in Vietnam, where I would typically see families of 3-5 on the Supercub so…is it reasonable to expect it to pack 2 people maybe 315lbs total? Thank you for your consideration! Dean C

      Yo Dean, I don't think you'd break it. I do, however, think it would be slow up hills and a bit rubbish at braking. Give it a go and let me know how you get on!

    Instead of just reading a bunch of specs, he actually shows you by taking measurements. That's when I knew I would enjoy this review.

    I just sold off my '83 c70 Passport and upgraded to the same red & black SuperCub. It's honestly a great improvement. While there are some things that aren't as perfectly simple as the older models (kickstand/starter, seat, key system, battery location), there's a lot of improvements (lights, engine, disc brake, wheels, exhaust) that make it a worthwhile upgrade.

    I know this is an older video, but great shout. Just to let you know, the mirror is easily broken (ask me how I know…) You can remove the rubber peg covers, but you have to remove the peg to do it… annoying.

    No need to remove the chain or rear sprocket..leave it all attached to the swinging arm Remove the rear nut on the torsion arm, and the brake barrel nut You can get the rear wheel out. You need to scrub the tyres in for about 100 miles first

    In general I like Super Cub but I have other small Honda bikes: Dax 125 and Vision 110. The problems I do see in current SC is the keyless system which I had in one of my bikes and I never liked it. Second one and it's a deal breaker is a colour. I would like to have a classic colour scheme.
