I used this method on my 40 year old GL1000 which still had its original factory tires and it worked remarkably well! I think i can get another 40 years of use out of them, thanks!!!
WHAT! I was taking notes until the hot sauce, noodle flavoring and a kettle on the boil came into it! Came for tips on how to restore parts... left with a hot snack!
Although dimensional tolerances may be greatly reduced via shrinkage, female cafe racer mechanics can quickly soften hardened parts just by pointing and giggling at them.
How did you ever learn about rejuvenating rubber parts like this? Nobody else on TH-cam seems to know about this. It is so wonderful of you to share this knowledge with us. You must get a warm feeling knowing how much you are helping so many of us. The Lord will surely reward you for your good deeds, and we are so appreciative for helping us.
If you don't fancy following Ichibans precise & concise System - just chuck your rubber bits into some ATF. ATF contains loads of "We Love Rubber!" Stuff because your average automatic gerabox is packed full of seals - so they invented a fluid that makes seals stay sealing. 15 minutes soaking in ATF is the "Answer" for those who clicked in really expecting a "How to" & left feeling like their nads had just been tickled..
I used to do the same on my old KZ rubbers but without the need for all those weird chemicals or hot water. Just soak em overnight in cellulose thinners. (Gunwash in UK) soak overnight, let them dry out (as they will have swollen bigger than orig) for 6 hours, job done, like new rubbers. Try it!
the video is funny and very clear to understand. I am using all your technics on my honda magna. the bike isn't expensive but I love it so these technics are truly badass for a minimum of money. the way you repare stuff is totally new 4 me. awesome job
+Ichiban Moto Konichiwa Ichiban Moto San! As an industrial engineer, I must advise you that in order to reach the working temperature where you can manipulate the properties of the material (above the Eutectic Point)in a faster and more efficient way, you MUST add 5 drops of miso. In case you can't get Miso, you can always use sake but it MUST be of the Junmai-shu type, otherwise you will achieve a plastic deformation instead of an elastic deformation.
Back in the 90's I was using an old rubber cow teat liner as an adapter to connect a funnel to 5/16 copper, and accidentally discovered that POE refrigeration compressor oil is a rejuvenation for rubber. Worth trying out should you run out of chalk tablets.
This is probably the most informative and entertaining video I have seen on TH-cam. But, what is seal oil? I can't really find any of the chemicals used to try this myself: all of the chemical names are sort of ambiguous.
I stumbled on this video because I bought a tire from my onewheel. It's a pretty hard compound and I was just searching the web if there is a way to make rubber softer. Do you think this would work on a small Karting tire?
You can use a fine polish, like plastX to bring that surface up to par. 1. What is the brand of the rubber rejuvinator? I went so far as to image search rubber rejuvinator products and couldn't find that bottle. Is it just Fedron? 2. What did you squirt in from the hypo needle? 3. How many hot sauce drops (Mikuni stuff)? 4. How much "hot sauce"? 5. How long does this treatment typically last? I would like to get at least a year of softening out of the process if possible. Do you know? I suspect my application is MUCH less demanding than yours, now tremendous heating, no monster tension (stretching) stresses. If you (or someone else that has done this and knows) would take the time to answer my question, I would be glad to put another comment describing if, and how well it worked. Thx, and thx for taking the time to share this via the video. Current "restorers" use stuff like brake fluid, which to me doesn't sound like that great an idea, although the rubber parts in a brake system don't seem to deteriorate soaked in it. Still.... I am going to try this on a very old typewriter platen, as re-rubbering them is rather expensive (about $100), and a pretty long turn around time, both of which I'd like to avoid if I can. Obviously the "treatment" will not be able to penetrate both sides of a thin rubber part, as it does with your part geometry here, but I don't think that's an issue, as I really just need the outer 1/8"-3/16" to soften to make the necessary difference (not ripping through typewriter ribbons and paper, and not sounding like a woodpecker on steroids tapping on a plastic tree.
Hey, thanks for the great video. Just to confirm what about those Rubber parts that get gooey and melt off when you rub them. Will this solution fix that? Thanks in advance.
My God! This worked a treat on my friend's KTM seat. After years of fertility treatment, just one ride after the annealing process on his old seat and voila! Quadruplet daughters! (I haven't told him about the potential ding his riding time is going to take, but one thing at a time.) Thanks, again, Ichiban!
Do you this this process would work on the soles of shoes as well? I restore old sneakers for people and people often have pairs that are 20-30 years old where the rubber has hardened and lost all grip. There are little to no products out there to restore shoes in this fashion, but I'm wondering if the same method can be applied since it's also just a rubber sole? Also, I highly doubt I can track down any of the secret ingredients locally, so should I be using 70% alcohol or 91%?
I have a 1977 yamaha dt100. Got it running but reams really bad when i hit the throttle. I will say that I did not clean the carb. Any help would be great! The bike also has a make shift throttle from the previous owner. The parts for this bike are expensive so was wondering what to attack first. Keep up with the great Vids. Thanks, Wayne Brown, Rochester NY.
throttle cables for DT100'S are like $12 on ebay. get one. after you ultrasonic your carb, carefully inspect and adjust everything to spec. also check for vacuum leaks after installed and running.
Have you, or anyone else, used this method to restore a typewriter platen? Do you have any recomendations when working with hardened rubber that cannot be separated from metal or wodden components?
I wonder would this work on rubber wellington boots? I bought 4 pairs of wellingtons from this online store and although new and unused they're as hard as a rock and uncomfortable to walk in. Store wouldn't accept a return or refund so I'm stuck with them.
My ATV was burnt down, but I was able to salvage the carb and its rubber manifold. The manifold burnt a little bit and stiffen, but am I able to restore it with this technique without tearing it apart?
BAD ASS !!! Does replasticizing (sp) work for tyres ? I have some old firestone tyres I wanna use on my cafe racer - can i add more plasticiser to get more grip? you used the Mikuni sachet but would that work for tyres - any chance of a video on tyres next ?
My grandfather left me his original WWII rubber face mask from when he was a B24 gunner. The rubber is very brittle and some parts are delicate. I'm nervous to boil them and such. Do you believe this method will work on those delicate parts from 1940?
Can this system be utilised to soften up aged tires? I have some 7.35 farm-tractor tires that I want to fit on my Kawazuki 390 but they are a bit firm and cracked everywhere?
jarrett fisher because so many people end up on his videos looking for actual help with a real problem. The internet is already full of shit information, why purposely add more?
if you listen carefully what he says you might realize that, beyond the crappy stuff he uses (...of course you're not going to use a bug-eaten-wooden-self-made-duct-taped-screwdriver to repair your carbs... aren't you?), he's giving away the tricks of the trade. For free. And for your information 1/3 methyl salicylate in isopropyl alcohol works. For real.
good vid cheers just thinking if you heated the last batch of chemicals and oils they would soak it up and might last a bit longer keep up the good vids mate
To remove grips take a screwdriver and raise the outer edge of the grip just enough to insert the tip of a blow gun connected to a compressor. Squeeze the blow gun handle and the grip will fly off.To replace grips effortlessly soak them in water for about an hour. After they're on give the water enough time to evaporate. NEVER use anything other than water.
@@IchibanMoto Appreciate the reply, I'm in Australia & we're metric so quite important I get the conversion correct. As you'd know the devil is in the detail
I've been trying to set my carb up for a while now, with limited success. Now I know what tool I'm missing. Metric Carb Tweeker. Where can I get one of these badass tools?
Much cheaper and very effective method is simply to boil the rubber in a solution of water and wintergreen oil for about 30 minutes. Let soak till cold. Then they are once again pliable. Totally non toxic and easy
Hey could you do a video on renewing a rubber drive wheel for an old record player. I really need to find something to do the trick for my record player because no body around where I live sells or rebuilds the rubber drive wheels thanks.
You know, and I don't want to make a whole big thing about it or anything, but I race Internationally and specialize in the Top Class at the High Bank Turns of Daytona. I've been in the ICU at Halifax Memorial Hospital since the big crash. I'm trying to get the Cafe Racer bent back into place and straightened out. Railing around the High Bank Turns at Top Speed, knowing that so many Sweet Chicks are watching, and finishing on the Podium and celebrating in the Winners Circle is what it's all about. You know, and I'm sure everyone remembers, Barry Sheene met and married Stephanie McLean, the 1971 Penthouse Pet of the Year. I didn't see her there this year but was hoping to meet the Stunning Wanda "Jelly Fingers" Welch. What a Sweetheart and was the February 1978 Teazer of the Month in Screw Magazine. After I get done with Physical Therapy I wouldn't mind Calling First for Sloppy Seconds with her. Anyway, when truing the rear wheel I found that the tire tube was punctured in several locations. I'm hoping that the crew at Itchy Bonn Moto can work some of their Chemistry Wizardry on the tube, with the annealing and rejuvenating process, and get my bike back on the track next spring. If Itchy can get the tube soft and supple again, something similar to what I can only imagine Mrs. Jelly Fingers has on the other side of that string bikini, then I can apply another set of patches over the other many patch repairs. Also, a little secret, I dust the tube with Nickel Town Customs Synthetic Baby Powder to minimize scuffing and oxidation. Thanks to my good friends at Itchy Bonn Moto. I'm hoping to get a few Stickers out of the deal too. And, please turn the tube repair around quickly and bill me to my home address in Winnetka. Thanks Itchy.

2:26 dry them out with the "clean" towel
😂. That towel was as dirty as the part when he removed it.

You seem to be like a mad mountain monk. I love it.
Ichiban Moto is one of the most reputable companies I have ever done business with. They are a model that all corporations should follow.
