I hooked it up to the bleeder screw for the air, and filled the reservoir up to straight out of the bottle

No problem, glad you enjoyed!

Glad I could help! I try to make these videos for learning, whether for myself or others!

What plate lights 👀. I kid, but I’m actually using the tail light. How the plate mounts the tail light shines down just enough to illuminate the plate

@@shadetreehotrods i never thought of that. I'm going to do the same thing. thanks for the idea

There has only been one time when the temp got more than 60% of the water temp gauge. I had been riding on the interstate for 1.5 hours in an alabama summer and stopped on an off ramp due to traffic. Had to cut it off because the fans weren’t cooling it fast enough. Besides that haven’t had an issue

@@shadetreehotrods thanks for the info.

Basically we just stabbed it. Slammed it down real hard to get a stubborn air pocket out of the slave. Not the first choice but it does work when needed

Glad you enjoyed!

No kidding? I thought it was just to hold it so it couldn’t turn freely. You learn something everyday!

I haven’t done anything to the exhaust besides taking the breadbox off 😂

I’m always down to do some work! Sounds like a good day pullin trannies!

@@shadetreehotrods hehehehehahahahahaaaaaa lol you close to Arizona lol.

@photondebuger45 I wish, bout the other side of the continent. AL

I haven’t been back since I did the sprocket upgrade. Might be time for another!

@@shadetreehotrods I think it’s about that time. Wonder how much of a difference it’d make. You should that’s be great content on the 302s there’s really none much in tracks

@@littlehorus2327 I’m saving up to get a race suit so I can take it to an actual track one day. Barber Motorsports isn’t far from me. I think It’d be great

@@shadetreehotrods that’s be dope. It’s the rider not the ride you can shred that 300cc I’ve been getting my curves on it lol 😂 target fixate within the apex 🇮🇹 just ordered sc exhaust from eBay let’s see how it sounds on it 🫡it’s so funny because on your vid that dude who pass your ticket said he couldn’t even hear it while I’m over here getting complaint by my own roomate of how loud even the stock exhaust is at night and to be considerate about my neighbor lols

@littlehorus2327 compared to that dirt ole I was racing it was definitely quiet lmao. I pulled the breadbox off over the winter and I really like how the bike sounds that way. But let me know how that sc sounds!

Right around $200 if I remember correctly. Here’s the link www.redracingparts.com/catalog.php?p=/en/motorcycle/chtChiaravalliFrontRearSprockets/benelli/302S2019

@@shadetreehotrods grii ou ou by imma get.Mines safe travels bro

Ah. That makes sense

Thank you very much man! That means more to me than I could ever show!

Big thanks man! I’ll have to check that out. Until I get comfortable with new equipment I’m anxious about non oem stuff. But I’ll try that one out next change!

Good to hear, that is what i bought for mine. I plan on doing it very soon.

Hell yea! Appreciate it!

So I changed routes on this project and sold the red ranger. But for the project I’m now using the 1uz in I’m looking through the Lynx catalog. Currently deciding on if I want to continue with the twin distributors or to lose em. That’ll make the final decision on which ecu I use

May i perhaps, suggest coil to plug like ls style? You can mount the coils remotely in the engine bay and run the plug wires under the valve cover plastic cover to retain a leatively stock look. ​@shadetreehotrods

@@whiterosemotors9026 that’s the option I’d like to steer toward, primary holdup is finances currently. I don’t think dual distributors is gonna give me a problem until I run up into higher boost (just a guess) so it’s a future upgrade for sure

What specifics are you looking for

@shadetreehotrods so, I have a 1uz out of a 97 sc and I'm looking at potentially putting it in my 91 ranger. I wanted to see how you mounted it in there, how the exhaust did or did not fit, what you had to modify, etc. Ac box was pulled it looks like which seems to be common with any ranger v8 swap. What about the steering shaft, steering gear box, exhaust, etc. How much did you modify vs how much was drop in?

Thank you for replying so quickly

@@whiterosemotors9026 yes, we did remove the ac box and had a piece of sheet metal that we were gonna rivet in to cover the holes in the firewall. For the exhaust it’s super tight specifically on the driver side. For this I snagged some super tight log style manifolds from and Aussie company, I can post the link if you want em. The steering shaft is gonna have to be modified to have an extra bend to make clearance. And the oil pan I ordered a rear sump pan from Kazakhstan. However I would recommend just finding a local fabricator to make one for you because they’ll also have to modify the oil pickup tube to reach the new sump. Once you do that you can set the engine damn near on the crossmember. If you run a solid mount like we had you can put it real close, but if you run a poly or rubber mount you’ll need to leave room for movement. You can find some universal 1UZ engine mounts that are pretty much what we made, just a square plate with holes drilled and runners going to a solid place in the bay

I think we might be able to work something out

It’s the Rokform Motorcycle Handlebar Phone Mount, and the accompanying phone case. There are two dealers that I know of that have these things if I’m not mistaken. Personally the sprocket change was about all I needed to be satisfied with the bike, though a lot of people add a windshield and bags

Thx brudda

We got a few videos of it up also, plus some more on the way

Someone’s gotta show you what not to do!

For this Mount I just snagged it off Ali express, the only thing I had to do was come up with hardware to Mount the tag

Gotta love em right?

That’s what we like to hear! We’re very much looking forward to rebuilding this engine to learn how everything works

@@shadetreehotrods pull the plugs, Fili chambers with ATF fluid.pour down intake with carb off also..then let sit for a week. Then put a socket on main hub with all belts off and try and free it up...get power to Starter.spin theat bitch..haha..fresh fuel , ( remote can,don't use fuel tank) put a electric pump inline, new plugs, if it's got spark ,it'll run...clean the carby!! It won't be as clean as it looks

We’re gonna be doing mostly original. It has some frame rust and such that we’ll have to fix. But I’m hoping for like 90% original

Dont*

This one is being “engine swapped”. It’s just getting another 12a that runs 😂. This one’s is gonna be true blue!

Heck yea man! Since the wife has laid claim to this beauty we’re gonna be focused primarily on aesthetics and handling/reliability. How you had it with your dad is how I’m trying to make it for my little one lol

These are fuel injected

It is unfortunate to admit, but this particular motorcycle is not from the land of freedom and taxes. Instead it hails from somewhere that uses the “we never made it to the moon” measurements 😢

I have not. Once the bike is upright you should be able to read the sight glass. Have you noticed any blue smoke from the exhaust or oil stains where you park?

no nothing like that @@shadetreehotrods

they added like the manual im confused if i should add or if i add then too much @@shadetreehotrods

You have to tilt the bike so it is upright to see the oil window

@@parisford2020at the 7:18 mark I tipped it upright to check the oik

Oh no kidding? I got lucky then I guess, I used a 1/4-18 if I remember correctly

@@shadetreehotrods it's so odd I didn't know it all spark plugs are metric you can go back like a 1966 dodge and they were metric

@DependableAutoTruck I wonder if that’s just a weird case of it being close enough?

We appreciate it for next time. We have habit of just trying to brute force our way through things (hence the stab bleeding). we are lucky, as far as removal goes, that the truck is only 2wd :D

Our time is coming soon! Thank you so much for the support

We have an oil change video already up and by the end of October we hope to have a sprocket/chain change video available!

Yes I kept a close eye on the oil level during the break in period because I was a little anxious. The level was always right around where it needed to be before the oil change

We’ve tossed the idea around. It’d definitely make for a good video!

@@shadetreehotrodsplz do

I’ve been waiting on a front sprocket that got put on backorder after I bought it, supposed to be here in September. My speedometer from factory is around 10% higher than my true speed. With that 41 tooth reap sprocket it’s about a 2.93 gear ratio. Where does that put you rpm wise at highway speeds?

@@shadetreehotrods I'd be doing about 62mph at around 7000rpm on 6th gear. The fastest cruise speed I've been on the highway is around 130-140km/h since I do have a 45 litre Givi topbox on the back & a medium sixed aftermarket windscreen, coz I usually ride long distance. With the 41 tooth sprocket, the top speed is a bit dead but much less vibration & engine stress on the highway.

how much is the top speed on 41 sprocket?@@Altruistic00

@@faditalmoudi9205 with the top box filled, I've once reached around 150-160 km/h going downhill before it gets too unstable.

I’ve been trying to find something but everything seems discontinued. My first though is go to your local pick and pull and snatch one out of a donor. Or if it’s something that can be replaced/rebuilt I’d try to find just those bits instead. Best of luck and thanks for watching!

@@shadetreehotrods Hey thanks for taking the time for my question

It has an option for ABS as is indicated by the owners manual, but mine does not. As far as sprockets it has a 14 tooth front and a 44 too the rear for a final drive ratio of 3.14

whats the best sprockets size for it?

This a fair point. I did chose to not use them simply because… well I wasn’t thinking when I was working

Yamalube 10w/40

Manual says 10w-50. Edit: also says 15w-50 is ok.

You are correct, thank you for the clarification. It’s definitely supposed to be a city bike. That being said I like making vehicles do things they weren’t meant to Lmao

@@shadetreehotrods It's definitely better for the bike to be around a 2.9 gear ratio like the japanese bikes of its class, so it doesnt vibrate as much on road speeds and have a similar gas milage as its Japanese competitors. Afaik, this one has a ratio of 3.14

I’m gonna be ordering a sprocket set to lower the gear ratio soon and I’ll be sure to put the current and new ratio numbers into the video!

@@shadetreehotrods Cant wait! Curious to see how the bike behaves differently in a new gear ratio

Hey mate I finally got the rear sprocket upgrade and posted a video on it. Let me know what you think?
