Thanks for the video Andy! Really enjoy the channel I was curious as what kind of taps do you recommend for working on atv and bikes, I’m sure you got a video somewhere on that subject but I’ve had some bad luck with cheaper taps and am very curious what you use. Thanks🍻
Hi Andy . Sorry to drag you back in time . Was the new loom the same guage as original. My loom on k5 is 16 guage ,new one is a 12 guage. Will 12 guage handle a up date to newer coils ,reg / etc ,
Hi Jamie, I didn't buy a new loom, I just made up/replaced what was required. That's a huge problem with modern wiring harnesses, manufactures are reducing down the wire thickness to the bare minimum. Works okay when new but quickly degrades causing large voltage drops & electrical issues which cost to repair. Personally I'd much rather build my own loom than buy one that's not to original specs. Hope this helps Andy
That's incredible! The Dealer kept 2 keys! I can't see that working these days - some dealers struggle to keep the new bike stock keys safe! Ah....John is the generic name is have always used for: 1. The guy in the factory that did the task on the production line. 2. Animals or insects - usually ones that have annoyed me 3. A mechanic that I don't want to disclose his real name...unless his real name is actually John! So no reference to you at all! Sorry John :-) Cheers Andy
