    So fastidious, love these . Being female and owning a 2016 cb 500 x, the old mechanic has eliminated my fears of attempting to do some repairs myself, saving me heaps of money. More videos please, shame my mechanic isn't as fussy.

    First, thanks for the content. I know it’s a lot of work and we appreciate it.
    Now, I must comment on something you did. It is a long held belief that sanding electrical contacts is a good idea. It is not. If there is corrosion you may remove it with sandpaper but you do more harm than good. You are adding resistance because the sandpaper scratches the surface. A very fine grit sandpaper (600) can be better but 120 will leave terrible scratches. Each of those scratches is a air gap that electrons can not pass. In effect you are reducing the surface area of the contact point. Also, those scratches provide a purchase hold for future corrosion. The use of a soft brass brush and a proper contact cleaner or possibly vinegar, just wipe it clean with water when done, is a much better practice. I know many people over the years have used sandpaper and gotten away with it. That is only because the surface area of the contact point was sized such that a reduction because of the scratches still left enough area that the added resistance didn’t seem to effect the connection. It still isn’t a good idea to add resistance by scratching.

    I stopped by to see you mechanic on the CB500x. I recently changed my air filter on my 2013 so I'm good there. However, I'm very intrigued by the fold away workbench on hinges! Cool! I'm always looking for ways to maximize my workspace in my small shop. 👍👍👍

    Such a simple job but in my 2021 model it is hard to get out and put back in because of all the the cables infront of it. If they had just made the case that contains the filter a tiny bit smaller...

    gday ol mechanic that ratchet spanner has that got a geared head on it? if so i have never seen one before and would be such a handy tool in tight spaces like that filter box i own a 2015 model and have a wopping 10,500km on it i love this bike it aint the fastest but its light and is a miser on the fuel i know guys who have well over 100000 km on them and no major work done so i have plenty of riding miles left on mine .

    Can you tell me the name of the spray you used on the battery terminals?
    I couldn't understand what you called it in the video! But this is such an awesome series of work on the 500x. Thank you so much for all of this.
    I'm not a mechanic at all but you have made a lot of these maintenance repairs look very approachable!

    Holly S-t Old Mechanic. Hahaha. Love the video. Love how you clean all the parts before reassembling it back together. I wish you lived in the USA by me. I am still having issues with my rear brakes. Keep the videos coming Sir. Be well and be safe.

      Hi Randy what is exactly the problem with your rear brake ?

  • @randyburgos
    @randyburgos 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Old Mac. I replied to your question asking me about my rear brakes but it keeps coming back that it can not be sent so I am answering you here. I rebuilt my rear caliper last year and the rear brakes were working fine. Then this year I replaced the rear brake line and rebuilt the rear master cylinder. I bleed the system and it was working ok. Then the rear brake began to hold up a little so I took the rear master cylinder and the rear caliper off to see what was going on. Looked ok to me. Still the brakes are holding up and they completely lock up over night when the bike is parked. I tried to bleed them over and over there is no air in the line. In order for me to move the bike I have to open the bleeder valve to release the pressure in the caliper. I am lost here. The only reason why I rebuilt the calipers and rear master cylinder and replaced the line was because it is 21 years old. I should have left it alone. I'm lost here. I guess I will buy and new master cylinder and caliper. That should do the trick. Wish you were here. LOL.

      Hi Randy, I am appologising for not responding to your problem, sorry mate. I remember that you got at first a wrong part from the dealer are you sure that you have now the right part ? Did you also replaced the seals in the caliper ? It could be that the pistons in the caliper (due to worn seals) not retracting anymore.. Greets The Old Mechanic

    Tbh that looks like a rubbish air filter for off-roading and fine dust etc. It’s not even oiled. I need to find a proper oiled aftermarket air filter.
