    Thanks, Dale! Very creative solution to making new filter screens. Always appreciate how you teach cable making. Great job on this old bike, especially given the lack of parts.

    Great Video as ever Dale I am going to restore my Cables on a Dt400mx using your video information.
    Was surprised all that wiring loom didn't go in the headlight casing as on most Japanese bukes

    Nice work Dale! You're making some good progress on the the bike. The Mustang looks sharp! Kinda wish I still had my 69 Mustang. Haven't had a chance to get back on the TS400, needed to take care of other things on my to do list.

      I hear ya Dave, as much as I wish I could play with bikes all the time, got other things to do around the house.

    That is a crazy setup on the carb. The chain size for that bike is 428 -114
    That’s what the book says.

      The front sprocket was 15 instead of 14, I had 110 links used 108.

    Won't be long. Not sure if you've ridden an F7. Small displacement but a very torquey motor, you will like it. The F7 put out 15.12 hp at the rear wheel compared to the Yamaha DT3 250 at 15.32 from a half century old article in a bike mag. Pretty impressive for a motor that is some 30% less displacement. Great video, thank you.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have about 50 years ago, they are what you say they are. Matter affect I compared the F7 to the 185 Suzuki and the 175 Yamaha in a video about pistons back a couple months. I believe the F7 came in with the highest HP rating at about 21hp. Thats off the top of my head, not sure.

    Nice work again Dale !
    I just wondered why you glued the ends on the outer cable because they can go anywhere ?

      I said the same thing in the video. But I like doing it anyway. Just my thing.

    Another great video! Is that a little Yamaha GT80 in the background (13:45)?

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, it is Pete, it is here for some repairs. Sounds like it will need crank bearings and a rod. Sounds a lot like the HS1 90 twin did, Will get into it soon.

    Looking Good Dale, I always enjoy your videos and look forward to the new ones! Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge! I enjoy learning from your channel. Is that a Yamaha GT80 I see in the shop?

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks EJ, yep GT80 is waiting its turn, going to have to reach deep inside her, sounds like the crank bearings are shot.

    • @ejfredaable
      @ejfredaable 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hopefully you will do a video on the Gt80. I have a 1978 Gt80 pretty much original. It was my first motorcycle. I have learned alot from your videos. Thanks again!

    Hi Dale its nearly there looking good. I no this isn't related to this video but I was wondering if you would no of a way to stop both my mirrors on my dt from vibrating when I ride the bike you can't see much in them until I slow down. many thanks Brian.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Brian, it's a tuff task to do on these single cylinder bikes, they do make a rubber insulator that screws into the perch and then your mirror screws into it. Not sure where to get them though.

    Hi Dale. Is the cutter you use on those cables a special unit? Using standard wire cutters seems to mash everything rather than cutting it cleanly.

    • @montana2strokeracer
      @montana2strokeracer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes its a Felco number C7. Cuts it clean.
