Thanks again Dana for another awesome TH-cam video. I love watching u in action because you’re not afraid of getting your hands dirty plus u break everything down step by easily understandable step.
The black must not have been factory, it came off very easy. The finish is exactly what the factory look is and what I want to accomplish on one of my projects. That is walnut shell and couple clear coats? Awesome video, thank you!
Baking soda also works well for cleaning parts without damaging the base metal. I have a handheld blaster that I use for cleaning carbs and other alloy items. Also works great for cleaning spark plugs. And baking soda dissolves in water so easy clean ups.
After coating your part with striper try putting them in a heavy duty plastic bag (seal) to percolate for the same length of time I usually use a waterblaster next if I can
Informative as always and a lot more work than I thought. And definitely looks better without the black paint. Like your tops. And spot on camera angles
I enjoy watching your videos. I'm interested in seeing how other people deal with repairing and maintaining odds and ends on your motorcycle. I'm rebuilding a '96 Virago 750.
Nice job on the forks Dana. They don't sell Nitromors any longer? It was good stuff, paint it on and scrape it off. The chemical you used seemed very effective.
You can buy Nitromors because it is a brand name, however it no longer contains Dichloromethane (DCM), the active ingredient. You can buy DCM if you have the correct certification, which of course I don't have. Yes, I was surprised how well the paint stripper I used actually worked. I believe the person who painted the forks did it in the last few years with Hammerite which is maybe why it came off so easily.
@@bikerstuff2 Love Hammerite. You can't get it in Canada. I might have to bring some back with Stilton, Savlon, Weedol and OXO in September. Quite the shopping list.
You should wear safetyglasses Dana. Wenn the hair from that thing sweeps back, it could splash some of the chemicals in your eyes. Well done btw. I use to hate that job on the bike. Did that many times, long ago. Nowadays not needed because i have a better bike haha. 🤣😂😎😅
@@bikerstuff2 Must be the same as Indian mechanics using steel toes sandals. Not very effective. A splash into the eye does a LOT of damage. Cheers from Vancouver Canada
Have you ever considered doing a meet and greet here in the states? Find a location, and then all your fans and followers can ride there, or bring their bikes. We could get to meet you your husband and each other. 😃

Great video dana but I wasn't sure about the numbers etc in the screen when filling the forks etc could you explain cheers
The different models of CBR400 have different quantities of oil and different air gaps.

Don't disagree. Years ago under a big piece of equipment, I got a splash. Have worn glasses every since. Don't change the top!!! 😜😜👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎
I had safety contact lenses in
@@bikerstuff2 LoL 👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎

Nice video.
Great job, however using the paint stripper with so much exposed skin worries me. Keep up the brilliant videos.
Great video! I think you should had glasses on in the beginning. Nice muscle shirts. 🥰❤️
Great video guys, will be handy for when I do mine, hey have you got any blooper videos coming out shortly,? Thanks
Keep your eye on Twitter
