wow what a job. what a video. I don't I think i'll ever spilt the cases, I am to old, don't have the room, I'd rather ride and fish. you have a great shop. thank you for the gift of your expertise and skill exhibition.
You lucky sod. Came apart nicely. Just had my cases back from vapour blasting. 40 years later and they look brand new. Crank off to be rephased to 277 and 750 big bore barrels on their way. Plus a load of other stuff that will make my project totally uneconomic. Good luck Brodie
Great Vid Brodie! The idea of disassembling my engine makes me nervous, but your vids are well detailed, I hope they only get more detailed when you are inspecting and identifying issues and what needs to be replaced/fixed. I suppose the episode when you put it all back together is when you will bust out the torque wrench, lol. Keep these videos coming, they are fantastic!!... I am just working on getting heat in my garage, then I will be starting as a super novice at removing and learning about my bikes. I will be referencing your videos over and over again I am sure, among other resources. Well done man, looking forward to the next episodes!!
When I removed the gear clusters a loose ball bearing fell on the floor… the gear clusters look in great shape and the bearings are sealed. Any idea where this could be from? Its my first time disassembling and engine. Thanks
I removed the e clip and washer on the selector shaft and then disengaged the selector claw, but the shifter assembly won’t come out. It’s as if there’s something blocking it although there is a small range of motion. Any suggestions of what to do? Thank you
I've watched this a good 20 times now, thank you man! People like you are who keep the classic bikes alive my guy
You're welcome mate. Thank you for the the feedback (and the watch time)😁
Just disassembled my 73' wish I had watched this first. Great video. Cant wait for the next one.

Very clear instructions. Thanks.
Great video! Great way to learn this stuff
Thanks mate
Hope you remember how everything goes back together like the original and running..
Hey mate, amazing work. Do you do freelance rebuilds? Let me know if I can get in touch to discuss. It’s for a 79 xs650.
Ill paybyou if you could put it on a dvd..great job
Was this the first time you had separated the cases? I’m having a hell of a time getting mine apart.
When I removed the gear clusters a loose ball bearing fell on the floor… the gear clusters look in great shape and the bearings are sealed. Any idea where this could be from? Its my first time disassembling and engine. Thanks
Could be the ball bearing for the clutch push rod. It may have been left idown the center of the shaft if you didn't remove it earlier.
Thanks for the reply brother
Happy to help

@@2wheelworkshop that was it! Thank you so much. I didn’t want to start banging on things without someone else’s suggestion 😂
