Helllo mates, it was long time pending, considering it was recorded almost a month back but KTM kept me engaged enough to not even spare time to edit this, but finally somehow edited first part, next one will include greasing and re assembly, unfortunately the sound quality is bad on that one. I beg your pardon on that please, a lot of static can be heard. but basic idea is to grease all and everything as we put them together. Cheers:)
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot the password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Axton Jaxtyn thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Good to see how you make it easy to DIY maintenance on bike. Too many of us spend too much time riding and not learning how to do regular maintenance to keep running in top condition. Thank you.
Yet again another top quality and informative video. This one goes into the folder marked maintenance, soon I will be able to totally strip down and fix/maintain my bike. All thanks to you taking the time to show people that it can be done even at the side of the road. Re using zip ties...... brilliant. Looking forward to reassembly. Cheers
Thanks mate, i truly appreciate it. And yes indeed this is a simple machine and fun to work on, idea is to do regular maintenance which service center miss out on or rather dont even bother with. Have a blast mate, happy wrenching, cheers :)
Thank you from Belgium! I'm a backyard mechanic with a 2019 himalayan. Thanks to you, i am well prepared for any maintenance job! I even tested my TPS voltage to see if it was good! Keep up the good work. I really appreciate it! Stay safe and healthy!
Thanks mate, truly appreciate it, I love the simplicity of this bike, some things may be problemetic but regular DIYs have proven to manage that issue :) Cheers
It’s like therapy watching your videos and always thinking that one day when I have enough motivation I will also open up my bike and clean it like this 😂
i'm becoming a proper fan of you just about to reassemble my swing arm ready for trip to Spain and Portugal on the 27th sept so this will be a benefit i'm sure Thank you Leuheanrede !
I just wanted to give you a big thumbs up and thank you for sharing your knowledge with us; my wife rides a himalayan and because of your awesome explanatory videos i feel confident fixing minor (maybe someday mayor :-) ) issues myself. Keep up the good work best regards goerk
Big thumbs up from UK good to see another zip tye reuser never buy another they are everywhere on posts fences wasted of to do my swing are just wish I had your sink
Hey bro ! If we remove the spindle first, then can the dust seals and centre rod be removed without dis-assembling the whole swing arm ? I mean can those roller bearing where the spindle goes be lubricated independently without disturbing the swing arm setup ?
Hey mate, its doable, the wheel would atleast have to come out or you need someone else to help you hold it in place so the swing arm is rightly aligned once you put the spindle back in. the place might be confined to properly work on to grease the bearings and remember you need to grease the link too at some point. Its doable but might get a bit tedious. best would be to remove rear wheel, open the link, open spindle and remove the complete assembly and grease them all at once, much easier that way, cheers :)
Hey, I really like your content. Based on your contribution I booked Himalayan bs6.That will be first bike on my garage.Could you make a maintenance chart video based on 500km, 5000km, 10,000km? Why Himalayan need so maintenance? I think this bike is not pocket friendly.
Hmm interesting:) But first, congrats :D. Now let me be honest. Naah, it does not need that much maintenance, I mean, I can't say it does, I do same to all my rides I own and have owned, an it just helps me to take them long long miles, so maybe I am overdoing it, but it's just me discussing DIYs to elongate the replacement of wearable part, I am sure regular service at authorized svc will still see many miles ;) Cheers :D
@@leuheanrede thanks for your reply. i was just talking about this that should I go lxi maruti alto/ kwid RXE or should I buy Himalayan. I really don't know should i cancelled Himalayan Booking or not coz i live in Himalayas ( shimla).
1. Is this operation the solution to rear suspension creaking? Or is it just the rear suspension linkage that creaks? 2. Is it necessary to remove the rear wheel to get the swingarm off? My bike is new, so dirt and rust presumably are not issues here. I do not want to add unnecessary steps to this job. Rear suspension on my new Himalayan has started creaking after only 2000 miles (3000km) of light riding - barely broken in. If you only have to do this operation every 10,000km, but I've got creaking at 3000km, then I can only conclude that whoever put my bike together at RE did a sloppy job greasing these parts. I am not thrilled with Royal Enfield right now.

Thanks mate, indeed simple diys go a long way in extending the life of parts and it's a breeze to do these jobs on Himalayan, cheers :)
@@leuheanredehey? Was wondering if we can just take out the swingarm axle only.?

lots of hard work..keep it up.. useful video 👌👌
Thanks mate :) Not that hard to be honest, but me being super lazy does take a lot of effort to get up and get going :D
Cheers
@@leuheanrede I adjusted chain after watching your video...and I got the idea how much hard work it does take...so hats off
@@001gurjitsingh :D but I bet you enjoyed the ride after. And trust me next time, it will take half the time :)
I tried to remove the rod..but after some extent its jammed inside.. should I hammer it and take it out ? please help me
Hi
Is it possible to replace the needle bearings in the swingarm, please
Some say you can, others say you need a new swing arm
Nice video
Cannot wait for the second part 😍
Yes working on it mate will be up soon :)
Hello, will this fix the squeaking sound coming from rear suspension?
Hey mate yes it would if bearing are not worn out and suspension is in good health. Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede thank you.

I wish royal Enfield Himalayan service do the same service as you do with your bike.
One more DIY 😃👍. Keep it up
Thanks mate :) yup, at it again, editing scares me, but second part will be up soon :D
1. Is this operation the solution to rear suspension creaking? Or is it just the rear suspension linkage that creaks?
2. Is it necessary to remove the rear wheel to get the swingarm off? My bike is new, so dirt and rust presumably are not issues here. I do not want to add unnecessary steps to this job.

I am not thrilled with Royal Enfield right now.
My creaking was caused by the pivot shaft being 1.5mm shorter than the swing arm width. I added two 1mm shims to lengthen the pivot shaft.
Lovely work
Thanks mate, i truly appreciate it. Cheers :)
❤️ Bro which company sockets do you use?
Hey mate,1/4 inch one is from Kingtony and 1/2 one was bought in pieces, so no particular brand, will do a vid soon on this too, Cheers :)
@@leuheanrede thanks bro✌🏽
Great, thanks for inspiring us :)
And I thank you for your kind words which in return inspire me to keep going :)
Cheers :D
Anyone have a link to the dust seals? Can’t seem to find these online.
Yo yo brother... Hello again
Hello mate, how r things :)
I guess I'll be waiting
Hahahaha, you know that now motivates me to open the dreadful editor again and get at it, just kidding :D will be up soon, Cheers :)
sir pls bearing no batao na swingam ka
Beautiful!
Much appreciated mate, thanks and cheers :)
Finallllyyyyyyy......
Took some real long time didn't it 😊
Got the idea bruh 😎
I used that an awful lot of times :)
Bad habits need work, was myself shocked while editing to be honest 😊
Make a video for ur using tools.
Hey mate yes need to work on that, will get that done soon, cheers :)
👍🏻👏🏼😷
Thanks mate:)
Whoa! Way too complicated for us rank amateurs! Time to call a mechanic! 🙈
Hey mate, naah, to be honest its one nut at a time and before you know its, its done. Cheers :)
