Man, you were lucky, they are usually way tighter than that!😩

Thank you!

Thanks for the video. Always helpful to know where to look for the plug. These new trucks have so many wires and plugs it is ridiculous.

Hey Kevin, great idea! Any update on how it held up? I was thinking of doing something similar with the bottom of a backpack.

I have the exact model but I need parts and the Model No is rusted off flywheel cover. What is the Model No of your unit?

Remember to return the air box to the carburetors.. Very important

Always new plugs

No compromise

l think you need a bigger hammer 😂

I know im commenting years after thr fact, but do you happen to know the thread and pitch of those bolts? Ive got the truck and the seat, but no hardware haha

How do the straps need to be?

I knew right away because it’s a drill it will be counter clockwise.. but you do have to go threw a few things to learn thanks for the video I’ve been threw things like this for 30 years but yes most chucks or things that spin like fans will have reverse threads 😊

Ironically, four years later, I buy a shoddy painted red one with EXACTLY the same issues.

What air filter is that?

Thanks to you. I got my Chuck off in less than two minutes.

Update?

Aaaaaand....been sitting here since Dec 27. O_o

This may be a long shot but could you help me get my x 650 started? when I go to start it the relay/solenoid clicks but the starter doesn't turn or attempt to turn

It don't seem like he knows what the hell he's doing

❤ Painful to watch from 3:20 till your own revelation 👍😎✊

Spray Early, Spray Often. If you've got seven projects to do, make the rustiest removal last, but the spraying of the fasteners first.

First time watching your channel.I would advise you not to use those Chinese filters on spark plug.There are piece of junk

I got 2 for 250$ one mostly for scraps and the one with a custom leather seat

The rope is smart. Never thought of that.

Where the hell is the oil filter on this model? Does it have one? I have looked everywhere online without having to take the entire things apart to find it with no luck?

Hi, I'm from Russia and I have exactly the same old dad's chainsaw poulan 2450, which hasn't been used for more than 18 years. It seems I have exactly the same problem with a broken gas line. Thanks a lot for the detailed video!

It’s been over a year what’s the update???? Do you have done time on the Chinese cylinder?? There are like zero reviews of anyone that’s put time on these, we wanna know lol update us buddy!

This thing is trash

How long it last

I watched this in the middle of the night and then got out of bed to go in the garage and try this in my underwear. The rope worked good! Just had to feed a ton of it in there. Thanks

Let me know how good it worked, thinking about doing similar things

Or get a proper saw😊

Put a chain on that thing!

Thank you Kevin!

I’m about to revive a 1980 xs650 appreciate you sharing the process of your project. Hope it’s still running

A Mapp gas torch for heat shrink? seems a bit excessive to me. I use a cigarette lighter. Something odd about that tank. On the brand new 1982 Yamaha XJ650 Maxim I had way back when, the Yamaha emblems were attached to the tank with screws. That tank looks perfectly smooth on the sides.

I owned one of these back when it was new. I never needed to work on it other than routine maintenance. I spent a lot of time waxing and polishing it. I just discovered that these bikes have Hitachi carburetors. I've worked on hundreds of Mikuni and Kehein carbs, but don't think I've ever touched a Hitachi before. I was surprised by all those extra jets all over the place. To clean tanks I first wash them out by filling them fill of Superclean, and letting it soak for at least 24 hours. be careful with it, it will take the skin right off your hands, and I mean like right now. That should get all the old gas residue out. Rinse it thoroughly with water, and if there is a lot of rust in it, remove the petcock, plug the hole, then fill the tank with full strength muriatic acid and let it soak for several hours. pour it out, flush it good with water, then pour in about a quart of WD-40 and slosh it around to prevent flash rusting. You will need a new O ring for the petcock. I use Allen screws to replace all of the float bowl screws and top cover screws. No more problems getting them out.

It really sucks seeing what was once such a beautiful bike in that condition. I bought a brand new Yamaha Maxim 650 in 1982. It was my first new bike. It was a replacement for my first street bike, a 1980 Yamaha XS400 Special I bought slightly used. Before that I had been riding dual sport on/off road bikes. Yamaha made such beautiful, high quality bikes back then.

What does the jets set on

What causes the failure ? That’s what I would like to know 😊

13:45 Yeah, I'm gonna ask you a question. Where could I get? A vow head overhead valve boat for the passenger side topping on the cap. I'm missing one. Where could I go get one at and what would the car brighter sit if I rebuilt him? Cause he would have straight dirt and rushed. In and I took the jets out and cleaned them and put them back in. Could you tell me what the terms are on the car? Drivers was not didn't have a gasket or it was rotted or something, and I replaced it, and number one piston that would be on the left side was all dark and kind it looked like. I don't know, like a goldfish look like it was getting old cause.I guess it's licking old or it wouldn't get the right mixture of air but the bike was running on three

I bought almost the same machine from a former co-worker. It was also missing that shoot. I think people just throw them away. I need to take it apart and change the blades.

We need a modern version! I have 8 scooters and not one is electric! I bet this design is great for lower speeds?

Sir, I want to install that small carburetor jet, it's very difficult.

Thanks for sharing ,it looks a good setup.

Can you tell me why when I engage blade it shuts off

Question. After installing the after market brake control. Do you have any problems with the controller not working the Trailer Brakes. Do you also get any messages on your dashboard after the controller install while in tow . Last question do you have any problems like the GM owners with the 2023and 2024 With the brake controllers preinstalled

12:26 Where do you? Get the valve boat on the top end for the 650 or 7 50s.Does any psycho shop carry them homes?Talker do you gotta order

how is doing rope technique?plz explain it more

What I need to know is how to remove the headrests from this type of bench seat
