Hi I'm Tristan!
I live in New York and I DIY with intensity 😅
For now, I restore wrecked or neglected motorcycles. So I disassemble, weld, machine and fix those bikes so they can go back on the road!

How to Perform Leak Down Test on DirtBike Engine - Yamaha YZ 250F
How to Leak-Down test a Dirt Bike Engine - Tutorial on Yamaha YZ 250F Motor
I just adjusted the 5 valves on the head of this YZ 250F engine and I want to perform a leak down test before putting everything together
With the auto-decompressor on this engine it’s not easy to know what’s the actual compression, so a leakdown tester will tell me if I have leaks in my intake or exhaust valves, crankcase through my piston rings or if I have bubbles in my coolant because of a bad head gasket
The goal is to see an engine sealed up so we can put things back together and finish the rebuild of this dirt bike
Let’s bust out the leak down tester and put pressure in that cylinder!

How to Adjust Valve Clearance with Shims on Yamaha YZ250F
มุมมอง 85K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I rebuilt the entire engine on my Yamaha YZ 250F and put it back in the frame without checking the valve clearances, today I measure the clearances between the camshafts and the valve lifters It’s regular maintenance on a 4 stroke motocross, so it should help if you want to check and set your valve clearances 👨🏻🔧 The symptoms you may already know: your engine becomes harder to start (or the bi...

CHEAPEST BIKE on Facebook Marketplace... Worth it?
มุมมอง 56K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I go on Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist all the time to look for cheap motorcycles… We’ve all seen the super cheap bikes online: they have a broken engine, perhaps no title or they are just a project bike in boxes (so appealing, right?) But today I want to see if it’s possible to find a good deal, a real one, not a bike that ends up costing thousands when finally running and complete So I f...
How Much Does It Cost To REBUILD A Wrecked Bike?

LED Turn Signals on Yamaha R1 + Seat Cover Change and AliExpress Mirrors
มุมมอง 8K3 ปีที่แล้ว
My wrecked Yamaha R1 has a salvage title, which means its resale value is down even if the bike looks good and performs as it should So I’m going to do an inspection that will give me a rebuilt title, that’s not really a clean title but at least something that resales at a higher value and that insurance companies favor as well Today is the home stretch before the inspection, I’m excited to see...
Review of Cheap Chinese Fairings on my Wrecked Yamaha R1
มุมมอง 32K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I mounted a Chinese fairing kit on my wrecked 2007 Yamaha R1 4C8 rebuild, I didn’t have any experience with those eBay fairings and could only see reviews online, so I figured I would make a video to show what to expect, at least on my model… I spent much time showing the fitment and paint quality on this video, I hope it helps!

CHEAP Chinese Fairings for Wrecked Yamaha R1 Rebuild - Is It Worth It? Part 12
มุมมอง 12K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Now that my bike is mechanically sound (or so I think…) it’s time to make her pretty and put some cheap new custom fairings on it 😀 I never used Chinese fairings before and I want to see how the fitment turns out to be. Especially that gas tank cover that seems ubiquitous for the 07-08 Yamaha R1 4C8 on eBay and Aliexpress So I put it together and realize some parts are good and some are really ...

Hello. Where can i find these purple hoses?
Can I just ask where you're connecting the DRL cables to?
Thank thank thank you for all the torque specs
Excellent
I wanted to see it running its been 3 years what happened???
nice to see the rake details, i worry a lot of guys focus on aesthetics too much
Big thanx Tristan, this realy helpt me to put my engine togethet =)
Fantastic video! Thank you.
Excellent content as always 👌
Good content and removed those outer bearing races like a boss (no welder required). I couldn't tell from watching but if you grind an angle on the parts you are welding it allows the weld to fill the gap making it stronger and allowing a smoother finish, sorry if you did do this already
can you use the same bearings?
Hi mate.. for yamaha yz250f two types of bolts are using to fix the oil tube on the head and block . One bolt with small jet and other bolt hav bigger jet .. top line goes to the cam shaft lubrication and next one for the gear box ..may i know which one is using on the head and which one using on the block..?

you are a legend for this video
That was the best and easiest to follow procedure ive found yet.. thx i appriciate the way u illustrated the demonstration.. 👍🏼
Your videos are very helpful thanks man

Wouldn’t there be some benefit from doing this with the swingarm and wheel axle installed? Then you could check that the wheel axle is also parallel to everything else.
Great video, very thorough and honest. Quick question, which company supplied your fairings? There are a number of them on eBay and I’d like to use the same company that supplied yours. Thanks.
Buen video
Cool video buddy. Spot on. Thankyou.
Man you explained it so well, the best video about this, thanks for illustrating it so clearly.
Hey great video my guy. When measuring the valves to they all have to be the same number. For example. If specs are between 17& 22. And one comes in at say 18. Do all other values have to be @ 18. Or just along as they're in spec
Can i use old bearings?
How many dowel pins are on the case halfs
Thank you. frames are everything. the most interesting part of these copart builds is that no one wants to check or talk about them.
Wherever you don't want paint just cover the area with Vaseline and spray away. When the paint is dry just wipe/wash the Vaseline off.
That "bump" you have on the fairing is a lug that clips into the top part, just push on it and it should clip in.
i just bought a 2005 r1 for 1700. has no fairings and just bought some for $140 lol. wish me luck
great job body
Are you gonna spend 5k on it then sell it for 3k ?
Should of kept the bike bro !! It's a no brainer😂
Yo when you look in the mirror do you think of that famous band from the 80s that sang wild boys and hungry like the wolf ??
Ants in australia can tighten to 10Nm
Double thumbs up 👍 👌
where did you buy?
Amazing I wish I had your skills. Unfortunately I’m going to have to pay a guy.
Dude, you. Don't make any dances you powder coat.The case covers, but you don't clean up the casings at all on a complete rebuild.Why even bother if you're gonna leave the casin's filthy man?You didn't even really clean them up.Much less.Get the corrosion off of them. No damn sense at all.
I dont know where u got. 040 on the 2nd piston ring but that gap is double what it should be. You had to have read it wrong on the instruction pamphlet or something. If you are building engines you should know better than that...
Congrat. You did it a great job .. I’m really impress 👍👍
This is as the greatest video BY FAR, I’m trying to decide to do my motorcycle clearance and I was a little worried I wouldn’t understand the math, or how any of it worked, and this was the best video I’ve ever soon, thank you, all the other videos just made me have more questions, you deserve a follow.
First one i found that shows the actual fairings on the bike. thank you for not only do a unbox video.
We missed you we nneed update
What happend 2 years ago, I want to see more of this. Tristan, You have subskribers that miss You. =)
He focuses on his french channel. He has way more subs

Great video, helped me out, thank you!
Excellent job on this video explaining everything. Thank you
Hello, thanks for the great explanation! could you tell me how did you solve the celarance on the thigt valve (0.03mm) ? i have exactly the same situation on my bike
Great video Man! I'm currently rebuilding my 2007 Yamaha Yz250f engine, so this video has helped a lot! Keep up the good work!
Doing the same to my 2007, what special tools are u finding a must have for the rebuild?
@@n0ldus03, crankcase splitter, cylinder hone, valve feeler gauges, clutch basket holder, flywheel holder, etc.
