    I don’t think there is such a thing as a boring Robot video. I was rapt throughout!
    I have had to replace head bearings on my GTS. I used a builders bucket under the floor. It lifted it enough to drop the column through the frame tube. Thanks Robot.

    Do I need to replace my front fender? Yes. Will I attempt it after watching this clip? No. If only I had a garage of my own! Alway always something new to be learned from watching Robot. This clip is Designer approved.

    Is it possible to undo the top bearing not to drop the stem enough to repack the upper and lower bearings with grease without having to remove the brake hose and speed sensor. If so it would make this a 30 minute job just to grease the bearings. Obviously if you needed to change them its a stem out job but it would be good to know if they can be repacked with grease without dropping the stem completely out.

    couldn't find the banjo robot mentioned on my 2012 GTS - it looks like a continuous brake line from the front caliper to the master cylinder! I'm trying to drop my forks, so I can respray the stone chipped area at the bottom of the from legshield, and with the fork in place it's a lot harder!

      You must drop the fork to completely remove the fender. You might be able to install that without removing the fender: th-cam.com/video/ZUFymECCrDk/w-d-xo.html

    You have necessarily to remove the fork for removing just the fender or you can also extract it by removing the wheel and the caliper then sliding it down?

    Great video but you need to replace your plastic parts for sure in the way you treat them 😅 pointing on to them with the sharp end of a screwdriver, laying the fender on the ground with the paint job down without a towel or anything underneath. Wouldn’t leave my brand new scooter in this workshop 😅

    2,3 Hours says Robot to do this job. Lol, I guess he is talking of someone who has done it several 100 times to begin with. Has a fully furnished workshop & all the "right" tools. For us minions, if we are to undertake anything like this on a sidewalk, it is likely to be 10-12 hours. A lot of the time wrestling to get something off or on :). I hope I dont have to replace a broken fender.
