A 38 minute video is exactly what we need in these times. You are the man, Cameron!
Excuse me its 1 second off of 38 minutes
Masu some editing softwares do that, the time is off somewhere lol
RM Mc where’s my discount 😂
38 minute video that I couldn’t take my eyes off

I cant wait to hear it run, the sound of 2 strokes is my greatest weakness.
I know🥵

Good job, I was at KTM Motors in Austria for a year, 20 men in a row, 300 engines in an 8 hour shift. Nice to see an engine, very slowly. Greetings from Austria, Robert
Reci mi onaj semering do kvačila, da li zica na njemu gleda prema radilici ili prema vani tj prema korpi kvacila?
Wow, I am blown away at how great that engine came out. It looks much better than new. I can't wait to see the top-end go on. Keep up the great work Cam!
Hey cam when installing the crank in the crank bearings instead of torching the whole bearing try heating some old sacrificial sockets up that fit tight in the inner race. Heat the socket red hot, and hold it in the race until you feel it get looser. This focuses more heat where the interference fit is actually taking place. Works great for me!
Robert Corcoran That is an interesting method. I’ll give it a try! Thanks!
I like it d way u talk about it
29:10. If ole Abe knew he would be helping rebuild a 2 stroke engine in 2020.... though pennys made after 1982 are about 99% zinc now. (Even softer metal than copper) Little trivia for ya kiddos today. 😁
Love the rebuild- wish I had 1% of your engine building skills. 👍
"Lube on the shaft before you shove her in." Cracking me up!
My OCD absolutely loves these vids. So good and refreshing to see such thorough, detail oriented work in such a clean workspace! 👌👏
This bike is going to be freaking sick. I'd love to be able to have one of your builds. Itll def be a trophy bike. 💪
This build is so clean! Really love seeing the detail and time put in! That's what I would call a Pryme Build.
You’ve inspired me to fully rebuild my ‘83 Honda cr60 and do a mini build on my cr125. Love the channel can’t wait to see this bike done!
Ethyn Black do you have insta? I’d like to see your 125. I’m doing a mini build on mine as well
Damn that bottom end is CLEAN! So stoked to see it move forward! - Kincade
Having watched your channel for a while out of specific interest to "see it done" as the visual roadmap, it has become clear to me that beyond those initial reasons of clarifying unseen things that seem mechanically challenging, it is the way you present the steps that leaves the lesson shown with the takeaway of value, which is to do it right.
Clean well lit workspace, camera work very revealing and non hindering,
the results from viewing are always very motivating.
As the time went on watching these videos when others were "recommended" by you-tube, I always come back to yours. They are the best for me, and I appreciate each one. Helpful? Extremely,....
Just so you know, I like it when you err or miss a small detail then catch it and show it,...that, because of what these are to me and likely many others, is a GOOD thing.
Sometimes,....I wonder if you do it on purpose to be humble but you know thats the thing to be shown as it is the thing to look out for.
Other than the builds and processes, everything I have seen is influencing how Im setting up my space. I guess it is reasonable to say a great teacher can also be entertaining, and you are those things. Thanks Cameron
This is a way to pass time during the COVID-19
Havent had time in 2 years. School handins with unhuman deadlines lol
As a side note... don't get Loctite on the prowls for the shifter assembly. Been there and done that. Make sure the detent arm is flat and rolls well. The DR350 has the same set up. The shoulder bolt that goes in the drum tends to break. When it does it jacks that little arm up. I had the issue. Put it back together to find it still had issues. The roller on the end of the arm was tweaked and that arm was bent. Easy fix.... pain to get to.
Nothing like seeing Cam upload a video and liking it before you even start watching 🤙🏼
That 37 min video was freaking sweet! Keep it going! And make a reminder so you don't forget later on to pour the transmission oil 😁 keep it pryme 👌🏼
By the way it is a shame that the oil fill plug is not available in yellow, maybe red will fit better the Suzuki yellow colours? 🤔 Anyways is gonna look great!
Just a heads up, I believe that "evaporates" is the word that you are looking for. Dry ice is pure frozen carbon dioxide gas, and when it "melts" it is actually is just evaporating back into CO2. I would also be careful handling it without insulated gloves as it is almost -110°F and can lead to permanent burns. Its cool that you can buy it where you live, we can't buy it in AK. Great video!
ProjectDirtbikes Sublimation is actually the correct term. Evaporation is from liquid to gas. Sublimation solid to gas.
Tra tutti quelli che vedo mettere mano nei motori tu rimani quello piú professionale, sempre ordinato nei lavori e maniacale su ogni cosa, continua cosí , sei il migliore.
That engine stand is cool! Camera angles are perfectly done at the shift drum. I use pennies to and always have. Looking forward to the SF FORK disassembly and seeing what's up with them.
once i loved to watch your brother building cars and now i bought a kawasaki 125cc and somehow i began watching your videos instead and they help me learn how to do things on my dirt bike thanks i love your videos man keep going
Dedication. Perfection. Commitment. Entertainment. Well done!
The quality of your job is amazing, never seen something like this before....
love this build! that hint of blue and dark grey is perfect!
i love these vids so much it’s really interesting to learn how these engines work. Maybe next a Yamaha 125?
had 2 do it 2 em 125x
“Gotta throw some lube on the shaft before you shove ‘er in.”
epicbagelswag lmao
😳😳
Yessir! 😂❌🧢
He likes it dry, thats why he blew up his gfs xr80 ran it dry
And his engine stand sounds like hes never oiled it either
Heat and ice my old man taught me that method god bless him . Rip dad I’d sure like to be in the garage with you now. ✌️
Jo Ski sorry for your loss
Dry ice tip use paper cup on crank shaft make a hole in the bottom of cup and place it over shaft then fill cup. Simply pull the cup up off the shaft dry ice stays in the cup👍
It’s like therapy watching you work. Thank you.
Cam: "This one's being a little stubborn"
Also Cam: *Proceeds to murder it with a hammer"
what i like is that Cameron has a clean and accurat working style...and so is the result of his work
1:38 "sounds like i'm murdering the crankshaft" hahahahahahahhaha love that line
That finished engine is a work of art just on it's own.
I'd gladly display that at my house. 👍
So nice to watch! Thanks Cameron for showing us how this is done.
Excellent video Cameron, amazing detail and great video quality, essential viewing for anyone planning on doing this for the first time. In these weird, weird times, these videos mean more to your audience than ever! I've watched lots of engine/transmission rebuild videos over the past few years (yours included), but this is the best one I've seen.
I watch your vids all the time. They are the only bike builds I like cause people always talk and go shopping and show them doing something stupid stuff to a dirt bike for like 2 mins but you make really nice interesting vids and I learn a lot from them. Good way to pass time during COVID-19. Keep up the good work
3:10 Its good to replace both gears working together, even if only one is damaged, just sayin'
Keep up the great work! Greetings from Poland ;)
So, I'm in motorcycle service technology for SkillsUSA and one of the hands-on tests was actually about pulling out the shifting forks and drum and measuring the gaps in the shift drum with a micrometer, the girl who went before me couldn't even figure out how to take apart the crankcase, neither did I... turns out there was 3 bolts I needed to take out first, I managed to take them out and I actually got 2nd place and was supposed to go to State but COVID-19 cancelled it (for those of you who care, the other 2 had to do with checking tire pressure, the lights, coolant levels, VIN, etc. and the second had to do with naming parts also, the bikes they had were Ninjas so I was freaking out internally)
Awesome video! It doesn’t get any better than this. Great job!
Love you cam! You always produce the best videos on this and I’m so happy with how humble you after all you have been through! Keep pushing!
Dude...you are the man. Love these videos and the way you do everything properly. Shame you ain’t out here in Aus to help me freshen up my Kato SX 250. Would live to do a renovation on it with you. You and your lady keep safe out there and look forward to seeing the next video. Good isolation watching 👍😎
6:20 I really was scared that I did something very wrong and I didn’t know what to do about it and that set me back and made me stop working on it for 4 months and then I put it all together and realized that that’s how it was supposed to be lol
Yes i agree with you,everything should be up to the engine running,hehe.just want to hear the sound of the engine
Sounds like you engine stand need oiled 😄 Motor looks amazing keep up the good work.
I like to take a slug of brass the size of the inner main bearing .Heat it on gas stove then set on bearing for a minute. The bearing cages are made of thin sheet metal and direct flame from torch can damage them.
Nice videos. Good clean work on the rebuild.
I love the heat cold method, always say work smarter not harder. I personally will put the crank in the freezer for a few days. Then assemble transmission first, drop in crank, and then quickly heat up other bearing and drop on the other side. With some systematic tapping on cases and transmission shafts she will fall on tight without a crank puller.
You can pre install the seals if you place a slug over the inner race of the main bearings and heat the slug with the torch.
Speaking of crank seals I hate to say it but it looks like you got the RH seal on backwards. RM's unlike most 2 strokes you want the lip seals facing the transmission.
Dude this popped up in my feed as I’m rebuilding my rm 125 and shi* perfect timing with the shift linkage. Much appreciated and your doing an awesome job looks great
Amazing man very clear explanation ,video showing great variety of essential detail. YOU DEFINITELY ARE MY FAVORITE OFF-ROAD MECHANIC
Legitimately a dream bike. Someone’s gunna be the happiest guy on two wheels, Keep up the amazing work man.
And i have a rmx250. Road version of the rm250. Eat your heart out! 😀😂😃😄
@@brahmdempers1005 the rmx is the enduro version of the race bike but that's super cool haha.
Another awesome video! Did build a 2001 CR250R engine a few months ago and decided to start doing some videos myself after watching your insane CR250R built! Keep up the good work man!
On the gasket, when I assemble engines I almost never use RTV. I always use gear oil or assembly lube. The oil will soak into the gasket and make it swell a littler after they are sealed. This helps a lot sealing as well
This is a great video for a distraction during a dystopia. Your lighting detail is fantastic
Literally watch you and devin and didn’t realize y’all were related till now 😅😅😅😅 also if you’re ever looking for beats lmk!
Whole purpose of a static gasket is, it's meant to be installed dry and can stick to both mating surfaces to seal properly. Grease is a good trick for certain appliancations, but for bikes where there's higher temperatures inside the case, it will eventually cause a leak.
i would recommend you to check for a gasket tacking solution. i think permatex sells one. its a red spray that is gas resistent. its made specifically for tacking the gaskets. grease can cause sealing issues.
It's nice to hear so many people resurrecting these 2-strokes.
hey mate, doing a good job. a bit of constructive criticism.
when installing clutch steels, if you think about it when you release the clutch lever, the clutch plates bind together. for the smoothest feel you would install the rounded edge facing in.
A Tip for installing crankshaft, Use a socket that fits prefectly in the bearing, And heat it then put in the bearing!
19:35 I couldn't have said it better myself. Lol.
I think he did that on purpose.
It learned it does matter wich orientation you put the steel plates of the clutch in. If the rounded side faces outwards the plates release more freely and engages more rough . if you have te sharp side out the clutch enganges more smoothly and releases rather roughly. i dont know if you actually feel a difference but thaths how i learnd it so i always put mine facing the rounded side inwards to have as smooth of an engagement as possible.
@16:22 Best plug ever ! Lol look at that bike shine!!!!
Tusk is the best!! You simply cannot beat the quality of their stuff for the price. Awesome video needed this during quarantine 😂🙄cant wait to see how the bikes turns out
A good tip is to get a deep impact socket same size as inner race,sit it on inner race and heat socket.
That motor is gonna be legit CLEAN when it’s all buttoned up. Great work.
I'm literally putting my '94 RM125 back together while following these videos. Amazing content sir!
gigi nanasnya dulu pasang bos bru rumah koplinya
Great stuff! I've got a KX250 engine apart and this will help with tips and tricks to have a smooth install.
Hi mate, good video work, clear vision and audio. Just a hint from an old Aussie fitter, using loctite...less is more, just put it at start of thread, capillary action winds it into thread when tensioning. Put a drop between 2 pieces of glass to see, it spreads like baby shit in a crib. When set simply mild heat will assist in melting it for ease of removal. Keep it up, cheers from Australia.
who remembers when he got the cr 250 and said he was planning on parting it out. lol ended up turning into the best bike build ever
Pretty much man
Wow man, it's looking amazing!! You do some awesome work, I wish all mechanics took their time like you! I need to replace 2nd gear on my RM and after watching this video it definitely helped me with all I need. Thanks for sharing Cam!
Looks bitchin so far! Cant wait to see the top end. Btw I love how extensive, indepth, and detailed the rebuild video is. I've never done a rebuild before myself but I'm sure I will someday so this is extremely helpful to me. Keep doing what you do! Stay healthy!
Good technique I use is a cardboard template of the bolt pattern that I stick the case bolts through so I know exactly which hole it came out of.
no one goes into depth like you bro
Thank you for putting out such great content. Your builds are always next level dude! I learned a lot from this one!! 👍
I find myself comming back and re-watching these videos 😆 Everything is just so clean and perfect👌
31:39 When disassembling you can poke the bolts through a piece of cardboard in the same pattern as they were on the engine. This will ensure that they are in the right place when its time to put the parts back together.
Dang , this is digital heroine! Ive got a rebuild woody ! Dude, seemed like only 5 minutes. Keep’em coming ! 👍🏼
A heat gun is a better option to a flame. The chance of overheating a bearing or race is real. Heat guns get plenty hot and it doesn’t take much to get few thousands. Especially when cooling the shaft also. Good job though.
I have to say that your cr250 build has been my favorite so far , keep it up brother 🇦🇺🤙
Love watching this, mine isn't any where near as pretty but just as much fun - 1989 RMX 250 rebuild around the same phase of building.
Addicted to these vids. Service manuals should include a link to Cams channel
In the future, you can make acetone baths and drop the dry ice in to it and then submerge parts you need to shrink, obviously only do it with parts which are acetone safe
Dude buy an induction heater. You do some amazing things with a bike but a cold crankshaft + a hot bearing is going to create moisture and rust shortening thr life of those roller bearings
He`s already got a crankshaft puller, there was no need for him to use any other method except to show what you could achieve if you needed to
Cam ... You put it together with ease . Stay heathy and save!
cam i wish you and your family the very best in this time of great confusion and worries but together we are strong and together we will live god bless us all.
It's better than what I imagined!
Sounds like it murdering the crank shaft😂😂Cameron you just made my day a whole lot better
Watching your videos made me want to get a dirt bike, especially after the CR project. I already have a street legal supermoto but there's something about those knobby tires and the smell of 2stroke... Therefore, I'm going to pick up an '04 CR 85 this weekend, and have some fun with it. Keep up the good work!! Cheers from Finland!
I find cooling the crank unnecessary and it attracts moisture from the air. I find just heating the crankcase up to 100 deg C does the job. Alternatively there is a special tool called a crank case puller, to pull the crank into the case. Also use it to pull the other half of the case together, when heating alone is not enough. Gently tapping with a plastic hammer will sometimes work, but be careful as a hard enough hit could put the crank out of true. Once together & bolts tightened I find the crank usually has a little binding / side loading on the main bearings & won't spin freely. I find gently tapping the ends of the crank (one moderate tap each end) will centralize the crank on the bearings & it will then spin freely.
That was awesome Cameron - please do a YZ250 build in the near future!
Actually it does matter which side you place the friction plates of your clutch.You want the flat side to grab your fibers.In that case you have to place them facing outside.Try it out.Nice video btw.
Man it’s all in the details😍 it’s so clean!!!
Love the grind ur doing it helps with our quarantine. U should do a cry 110 videos.
Love watching you work. Wonders from your hands.
Wish you all the best.
Heck yes! I've been so excited to watch this build! Thanks Cam!
Man that dry ice trick works magic
I don’t like to use the heat and cold method.
Heat only is better.
By using heat and ice, you create condensation (moisture) which will cause the bearings to rust prematurely.
Better to use MAPP Gas and heat up cases for 60-90 seconds and then drop bearing in.
Instead of using that tusk holding tool I've found that an old steel clutch plate with a bit of bent flat bar welded onto it works pretty well
Thats how you do the works. Always admiring your work brother
love watching these motor builds. Almost makes me think I could pull one off you make it look easy which I know it isn't. never split cases before kind of want to at some point now.
It's simple on two strokes. I've done a full rebuild on my bike
The two stroke motor may be simple but is a marvel of engineering.
Just few weeks ago finished rebuilding my rm250 04. First time ever i took apart the whole engine. Gears an all. Dont know if it was luck or what that i actually managed to put it back together.
All I can say IS...MASTERPIECE!
