7:14 Your valve adjustments are way too wide. They are to be set at thousands not hundredths. Correct timing for inlet is .002 and for exhaust .004. Hope this helps.

I got this bright idea and 5 years later the motors sitting in boxes😂

I heard that you should not use synthetic oils on these old triumphs because you could spend the main bearing and destroy it.

Following you guys, good energy. Got a 650 I know less then more about. But this got me motivated to keep at it till it runs again 😎

I have a 70 tr6r and I changed the primary gasket but don’t know what type of oil I should use is a 650

Where can we order the brass gaskets Man? Tnx

Love the RoboCop movie in the background. I’m wondering who ported the heads? I ran a 13.8 stock in my ‘94 Z28

Why springer is on that orange bike?

Amazing

Where do I add the gearbox and the primary chaincase oils in a 1970 Triumph Daytona 500?

My 1970 Daytona 500 is configured differently. I can't remove ANY of the drain plugs, especially that huge one at the top of the crankcase. Not sure where the bottom drain plug is located. Nobody in my area will touch a Triumph. Super screwed.

Great video, bikes are looking awesome. I’m still not sure on a temu welder. 😂

run a dry battery not one that will leak and make a mess for u!

Good to see you guys back!

😎👍😎 Opposite of your chain..cut side of battery box off..leaving about an inch from bottom..then 2 pieces of 1/4 " thread rod on long sides of battery,and a piece of angle rod on top of battery to clamp down.. Isn't recrifier/ regulator supposed to be bolted to frame ..instead of wire tied..to complete circut .. You'll probably be sunburnt from welding U.V.rays on your bald head and face ..using a cutting goggles instead of a Helmut.. Cool builds ..keep hammering along ...

Very helpful if you must build from scratch. All my electronicals are currently working (get it? Currently lol) so i will be just extending my wires to relocate them

Dude ur the bomb 💣

I did my XS650 tires and tubes with the cheap spoons off Amazon and lots of glass cleaner for lube. kneeling of floor and plenty of gumption. 4 out of 5 were successful.

😎👍🏻😎

I spray stuff that has heavy carbon with Easy-Off Grill cleaner first let it soak before cleaning

Just wondering were you coughing a lot the next day?

The welds…?? Yikes lol

Where did you guys get the red in a spray can?

That’s the crankcase breather pipe on early units

A grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain't.

If your bike is wet sumping most of the time you will throw oil out the breather, suspect worn oil pump , strip and service oil pump or replace problem solved, ( when this kind of oil pump gets worn oil leaks past the pumps plungers hence wet sump , when pump is not worn no wet sumping , hope that explains it

Happy Birthday to our May 6 guys Shedbilly and Chopper Steve!!

One day ill build a chopper of my xs650 too. Good content guys!

Xs 650....best twin ever built!!!!!

Sounds like it's running on one cylinder....

I have never run into an unwanted motorcycle in my long life.

It's alot easier if you put a little air in the tube first, also soapy water on the bead helps

if you don't have the bead in the drop of rim its a bitch to get on .use wd 40 for lube it eventually dries and won't rust your rim like water. and get yourself some tyre irons .

I do them on my xs650 just as I would my tour de France what's the big deal? Too tight? Heat gun

Good to have y’all back. I’ve been doing tires for years and will still mess up a tube sometimes it’s just one of those things that happens. Keep up the good work see you on the next one.

😎👍😎 .

They're back! You might want to check the engine mounts because the engine was moving when you were revving it up, also it could be just me but I think the plug leads are a little long? Cant wait to see the Easy Rider video when you two take em out for a ride when they're done.

Triumphs,,,if there's no oil on them, there's no oil in them.

Where are the updates…. Keep them going brotha 👍👍

Really good content. Thank you.

Great video on the rebuild! Couple of tech tips I'll add: 1st, I see your choke linkages have already been removed. Very common on chopper setups. You need to plug the top of carb where the cable was coming in, air will get in and lean your mixture. Also, over time the ethanol fuel will deteriorate the stock white floats, there are black floats on the market made to address this. Both the plugs and floats are available from Lowbrow. Lastly, to balance the 2 carb setups use a tool called a air flow balance meter that fits over carb mouth. This will help dial in the fuel adjustment screws and ensure even fueling and performance. Spray around the intake after installation to ensure no air leaks, it's easier to over tighten and create air leaks from warping than most people guess. Happy motoring bud!

Great video, thanks for the detailed info. 2 notations I'd say as a guy who builds motors and a certified motorcycle tech. 1st, as with any flat tappet cam motor, using a high zinc oil is crucial. Most m/c oils don't have that present. 2nd, m/c oils are formulated for a common bath system for the wet clutch. Whereas said clutch is a separate gear case, m/c oil isn't required. I recommend Castrol classic 20w50.

20-50 mineral oil is better for older bikes.

How many cans did you use pal?

Nothing like finding a new creator only to find out they don't finish videos/projects. Don't plan on me watching any other videos . If u couldn't hit the 12second mark then tell us . Would rather have closure then think u were just too pussy to do it

As some one who owns a 95 camaro z28 and builds choppers like yourself, this video was great. Definitely hoping to see a follow up video on this badass z28 soon!!

Looks like and 8k dollar sleeper to me.

Those are the coolest

I have two 650 choppers when I ride as much as possible
