    those 2 small hoses are attached ,each , to a plastic part that is screwed on the head cylinder. Is there enought space to remove also this plastic part ? i am talking about the part with number 17890-06G20-000

    Get a Rosebud time for your torch. It is mainly used to heat up a small to big area and stays hotter longer for more working time. If it were me, I'd drill a couple of holes in the corners to let water drain out. Just my opinion. Consider me a subscriber. Great video 👍

    yeah if the coupling is one way the trailer will tip but if it is the other way the motorbike could tip right? but then you would have your feet to stabilize it ofc

    Ok if this ACTUALLY for a 2008, how did you get the remote adjuster past the ABS box and other frame, brake items!!!??? 🤷🏼‍♂️ Unless you've deleted your ABS, this job is nowhere near as easy as you claim. Getting the adjuster out with ABS is a nightmare!!! Suzuki could have made this SO MUCH EASIER if they'd put the adjuster on the chain side with some kind of shield or something. I shouldn't have to take apart the remote to get it out or in.

    Regarding the master link: Do you do one pin while the chain is off the bike, and then do the other when you link the ends, or do you somehow do them both at the same time on the bike?

    I just changed my rear pads. Now the front bolt will not go all the way in. There is a gap about 2mm before it touches the caliper, and i dont dare tighten it any harder in fear of stripping the threads. Any ideas?

    When you go for a ride to see how much the coolant reservoir goes down, Do you have to put the fairings back on??? Can you just ride without the fairings? See how much you have to top off the coolant. And when you're finally done, that's when you put them back on?

  • @nicklittle626
    @nicklittle626 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Super handy. Always good to see a new perspective. I just got a 2007 Vstrom 650, and I'm slowly catching back on on the missed maitenance. Got a new fuel pump, and rebuilt all the assembly as it was rusted to pieces from sitting by the last owner, tank cleaned of rust now. Did an oil/filter change yesterday, now onto the spark plugs, air filter, coolant, brake fluid, and I'll save the valve clearances for a while. Bike has 80k miles, and runs like new, and doesn't look that old. My first adventure bike, after having no bike for the last couple of years.

    Nice structure and cardan joint is correctly placed for once, Most self-builders place the cardan joint with the vertical hinge on the side of the trailer, causing the trailer to tip on its side during a short bend or when reversing. Nice video without annoying music!

  • @sorenmelchior

    On the ride, looks fun! Are you standing on the more technical sections? I find that really helps, as well as reving up on hill climbs and use the clutch for speed to avoid stalling out. If you are new to dirt (as I am), the IRC tire TH-cam channel with Rich Larson has some great instructional videos on drills to help improve ones skills off road. I have been using them for the last year and my control and skill has increased. Thanks for sharing the DRZ content. On the Farckles: As a 2023 model DRZ owner, I am happy with my Seat Concepts seat and it’s much more comfortable than stock. I also have a skid plate, radiator guards, hand guards, IMS footpegs, rear rack, adjustable levers, led lights with tail tidy & double take enduro mirrors. I am currently having the dealership add in the Suzuki kickstarter kit (don’t have a garage at home), and plan on doing the 3x3 mod, jetting, and exhaust. That should complete my mod list, as well as bring the weight back closer to stock.

    I had a GS500F like yours & I agree about cross winds. There's a lot of plastic to catch the wind & it's pretty light weight bike causing it to he pushed sidways & and scrubbing off speed. I did find that upgrading the front & rear suspension to RaceTech springs & an R6 rear shock helped A LOT.
