Glad to see someone with a good handle on balance factors for parallel twins and the pertinent weight measurements. BTW: Do you assemble the rods with the bearing tabs facing forward or rearward, or does it even matter?

Always learn something new from this guy! Knurled pistons, news to me! Happy Holidays!

Haha DuDe!! I've done a couple vintage Honda teardowns and found knurled pistons inside!! Very cool to see you pull out a couple yourself. I figured that shops did that back in the day to get the bikes back on the road ASAP. Thx for showing all this stuff and commenting on everything. 🤙🛠️

The hardest part of watching your video is the fact I can't distract you with comments and end up 10 tangents deep just to end with "fuck it's noon already? Wanna go get lunch?"

I had to look up knurling pistons :).... Must take a fair bit of effort in itself?

One of the comment posters thought the deterioration of the oil pipes may have been the source of the stringy sludge, Any thoughts of your own?

NORTON SPOKEN HERE! You say you have a lot of performance Norton parts. If and when you ever get time you might want to film a high-performance Norton build. Large CC j e Schmidt products Norton Auto head etc. or a short stroke screamer. You certainly have all the necessary machines to accomplish this. Some of us old goats remember the day is gone past. Remember one thing" Norton spoken here"love watching your podcasts.

Who is this engine builder? And where?

Man we could do with someone with your skill set and attitude here in the UK!! We’ve lost so many engineers in recent years. Very sad

I like your clutch holding-tool. 🙂

Nice! Still waiting on my P11

the struggle is real

Another excellent video - keep em coming from a fan here in Britain

Looking forward to this 👍🙏

Awesome man! I love my N15cs. Head can be removed while in the frame but it's a huge pain. I removed my exhaust rocker spindles to give me more movement with the pushrods. One of those jobs where I ask myself why do I work on these things.

you got a Norton i got an A50 hahaha luv it

I'm still curious if Permatex Aviation form-a-gasket and silk thread would seal case halves. It works on airplanes.

Can you tell me what tyres you are running front and back? Cheers

Picked up some nice tips with this vid. Lifting the jugs to remove clamps and attaching the base gasket to the jugs. Nice work.

Great watch as always

Killing It!!!!

Great explication of the process 👍!!!!!.......one question.......the royal Enfield build .....when is part 2 🤔????, i ask because i have the same bike (650 enfield ) ,I'm thinking of doing the same , I'm waiting to see the end result. Peace out ✌

That's why i like my 4 bolt set up so well... jugs's up side down on the bench..... install one piston at a time way easy..Install the next piston.Also you only need one ring compressor.Once both piston's are installed just flip the jug's over to install.Next i install 4 base nut's to the 4 squared up stud's The 4 in the center close together and then thread the 4 bolt's appox 3 1/4 long to the base nut's.Next just flip your jug's over with the piston's that have all ready been installed on top off the 4 bolt's and your on.Now you can let go of the jug's because the jug are sitting on top of the 4 bolt head's ..No strain no pain.Now adjust your 4 nut's up or down so you can slip your piston sleeve in to the piston with no problem..Beat's trying to hold on to the heavy jug and try and work them over you pistons and ring's.........This work's great when you are doing a top end only and the engine is still mounted in the frame and you are by your self.Work's great as well when on the bench and your engine is mounted on a engine stand.....Hope this my help someone's job go a bit better.......Phil.....

Most awesome! Thanks!

Thanks for another great video good sir! I wonder could you tell me what grit hone you use for those Hepolite rings? I have the same rings to retro-fit to my 67' Daytona as the NOS LF Harris rings (and pistons) I originally fitted after boring are still smoking a bit after a couple of hundred miles. Best Regards Paul

good video and explanation of the process. like your meticulous and discriminating methods

Hi are you able balance the steel H beam rods ok?

Hey. Thanks for all the videos. Super informative and fascinating for a Brit bike nerd like me. I’d love to learn about cylinder/ring seating and break in. What do you recommend. I’m building a TR6 desert sled here in Vermont over the winter and I really want to start it up before I can take it for a break in ride. Is that not a good idea? Thanks!

Awesome work you do A J, your attention to detail is great!!

Looks fantastic

Another very informative video! Great work 🎉 looking forward to the polished motor assembly.

Wow polished engine is a great job

luv it

Just amazing polish on that sucker. Great work dude.

That polished motor is sweet. I cant imagine the work that must have taken.

Man,don't beat yourself up about long video's, I'll watch again and again lol,I appreciate all the filming you do especially the tranmission ones,looks easy to me now,many years ago I was led to believe the only way was to assemble all parts in a cluster and slowly insert it all in one swoop IF you held your tongue just rite you might get it in a few toys, I think Keith has fatter fingers like me and took him a few tries ,yea,doing the same motors over and over may seem boring to some but I stick with it, he'll! It's fun watching keep em coming Ritch, we'll keep watching, many thanks!

Great video - keep doing them, I have 2 engines to do myself. Would like to see the timing chest install as my last T140 was mis-timed by the previous owner and it through me off for some time.

Hi. Great videos. I wonder if you could a bit more about the intermittent camshaft wheel and the problems with a loose fitting spindle explaining some of the solutions. You mentioned here it’s a problem. Guess what, I’ve got that problem. Thanks again.

I have saved your trans videos and not a single one shows the proper way to install the layshaft needle bearing,

Watched a multitude of tranny vids and nobody shows the proper to install the layshaft needle bearing,

Always enjoy your videos even if you feel you are repeating thing. I am curious about the scavenger tube in the crankcase drain. Had a problem with an aftermarket drain plug. After installing it, had a wet sump condition. Went back to the OEM drain plug.

A man with Keith's talent and skills makes things look easy, but really, a 4 speed gear box shouldn't scare people! These bikes are so much more enjoyable when you do the work yourself! Thanks for the video!

Great to see ya back, thanks AJ.

perfect timing....poured a whiskey ....rolled a J ....and watched the whole vid while sitting in the kitchen surrounded by Triumph parts.....a good way to waste a Saturday afternoon in New Zealand....should be assembling what's here...lol.....🥃

i am goin to buy you a case of silly cone hahaha

Great idea about heating the socket

Hey loving the content Always engaging

I gotta double nut right here... ayeooo

🎉🎉🎉🎉

Hey is that my pile I see there? lol RA
