Wow. I have never seen the tape method on removing a filter. That's a excellent way 👌 👏 thanks for the video.
I was always told 70% of what you learn is through what you see so thank you 🙏
I agree Mick.. thank you for your feedback.. we're glad you enjoy the content.
Without trying to sound like a complete Nerd, I know just how much work goes into making these beautifully crafted videos with their intricate shots, perfect step by step frames and spot on editing. You are a genius!!!!!!
Much love to you and PP x
Wow, thank you so much Dai, what a fabulous comment and we both really appreciate that... you're absolutely right of course, as you well know yourself from your own videos, at least as much time (if not more), goes in to editing and post-production than in to recording the footage and it makes it all worthwhile when it is so appreciated... thank you so much and we'll look forward to catching up before the summer's out, let's chat soon! D&Pxx
Absolutely love this channel! Your attention to detail is why I keep watching. Cheers!! 🎉🎉
Thank you. Much appreciated!
I love that air filter, spot on that 👍🏼
Nice vedio , but there is no need to add oil to the filter before installing it, just install the filter empty and put the factory recommended amount of oil . leave the engine runing for few minutes , then check oil level again .
Hello Del !! Just finished doing the same on my 2015 F6B. The fun will be when it's time to do the air filter....no wait....that WON'T be fun. Biggest PITA known to man is getting to the air filter on newer Wings. Thank you Honda. Hope all is well your way.
Good morning Sir, good to hear from you again, and I think yes, you're right, when Honda designed the later Goldwings, they must have had a meeting and decided they need to make more money from labour charges!... but as they couldn't put the labour rate up any higher, they just buried the filter deeper under more plastic! I guess it's the polar opposite to a air filter on a Harley ;-0 Take care and have a wonderful week there, chat soon, D&Px
Let me just say, I've recently brought a Bonneville T120 and have followed your channel with considerable interest. Your channel is fantastic, I've watched and learned from you and you have inspired me to complete jobs I never throughtI I was capable of! Love my Bonnie thank you.
Great to hear Mark, congratulations on your Bonneville, have lots of fun with it!
Got the oil changed on my GW1500 ✔️ Thanks for the tips brother.
No problem 👍
nice,smooth,easy i really enjoy when watching this video
watching from iraq
Thank you and welcome aboard!
As always another fantastic detailed video 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸
Keep producing more videos
Fantastic video mate, you help me out heaps and I really enjoy working on my bikes with your advise…..bloody champion! Thankyou
No problem mate👍, glad the videos can help.
Nice job Del & Penny. Have a great week Cheers.
Thanks, you too, keep safe!
Nice video once again mr. Del. Washable airfilters are great, I use them all the time, They do require cleaning and re oiling from timt to time, however, and there some additional costs, such as a cleaning and re oiling kit. All in all, probably better for the environment! Learning a LOT from your technical skills and scrupulous attention to detail! Thank you sir,
Thank you Frank 👍, am glad the video was able to help you, just basic housekeeping work will save you lots of money doing it yourself... ride safe!
Good tip with the air filter.
Another great video mate love the work ethic you have such precision your skills are like a swiss watch all the best take care
Thanks mate, thats very kind... not sure about the Swiss watch, maybe a Timex at best.. but great to know it;s appreciated.
@@Moonfleet41 … I agree with you there DEL!!!
Love the old Goldwing content Del. Looking forward to a nice warm summer to put a few miles on my venerable old GL1100. FYI the Sealey brake bleed syringe unit from Spanner Monkey arrived today. Will let you know how things progress. Run my GL on Smith and Allan super 10-40 oil. It’s approved to API SL, JASO MA2 so perfectly suitable for motorcycles. Ride safe sir.
Thanks Michael, really appreciate the feedback, and great to hear that your syringe arrived, let us know how you get on with it. Thanks so much for your support.. D&Pxx
Del, used the Sealey bleed syringe, great piece of kit. Only took a few minutes to force the fluid from the calliper to the master cylinder reservoir. Let the system settle for a few days then bled the brakes in the conventional manner to remove the last traces of air. Next job, bleed the front brakes of my Z1000 A1 - should be nice and easy.
Easy job made, to look even easier.
Well done.
When the final cut of the triumph is ready, hopefully there's a before and after shot🙏
Yes indeed Val, im planning to make a splice with the very first video of the build a year ago and ride it past the same bends and roads... then do the walk round in the same spot.. Firing it up Friday, then booked an MOT for next week.
@@Moonfleet41 can't wait for the final episode
@@Val750 Gonna bring two.. fire up first then check for leaks and prime out the coolant... and i can;t get an MOT slot till next week, so that'll be the ride to the church, and howl round the lanes..!
Love these over engineered bikes, love them or loath them I personally love them.
When I found out that they have hydraulic tappets like the old sibling bike the CBX that gave me another reason to own one (haven't got one yet but I will do) that oil Del was as black as the bike! A batwing with black blood, very sinister lol
Sure thing Marc, the Goldwing is a challenging bike to work with, if for no other reason, than it's ridiculous lardy weight!... And yeah, reckon that sump oil was sponsored by Count Bovril of Castle Marmite lol
another great video brother !!! so relaxing to watch 👍 and the lathe work is outstanding!!! soon 1 million subscribers !!! stay safe guys , cheers from new york 🥂
Thank you so much brother, 😀 "a million subs"? wouldn't that be nice, but sadly bikes are not main stream enough to attract such audiences, cars maybe, and other mainstream subject like gaming and food then yeah, sure.. but bikes will always be niche.. and maybe that's why we live them, it stands us apart from Mr Suburbia and his plug-in Prius !! Keep safe and enjoy your weekend, All the best form us both.. D&Px
Gran video siempre facil....siempre util....eres mi maestro Delboy!!!!!....muchas gracias y un saludo desde Castro urdiales en el norte de España.
De nada, amigo mío, nos alegra saber que los videos son útiles, conduce de forma segura y ¡gracias por tu apoyo!
@@Moonfleet41 gracias a ti siempre...disfruto de cada uno de tus trabajos yo tengo dos motos una tiger 1050 2008 y una kymco venox 250 2006
As always good job!!! You just forgot to refill the airconditioner 😉👍
ha ah yeah, ill save that for next time. 👍
Sehr gute Videos.Thank You
Good job Del. I see that you gave the oil filter a half turn at the end of seating, does the same principle apply to every bike that has an external one? Great advice regarding the air filter also.👍
I always try buy life time air filters , I just blow them off and reuse… replace when’d oiled soaked or badly caked.
Great video. Thx!!
Nice work Del and Penny. Doing anything on a Goldwing is a treasure hunt... dig until you find what you're looking for. Great video... nice to see you priming the oil filter as one should. Does that Simota air filter not get an oil coating? Stay safe and healthy!
Hi John, I like that, that pretty much sums up a Goldwing, like a Pandora's box of plastic panels! The Simota filter, just like K&N, come oiled and ready to fit, which is why they're in a sealed plastic bag, and you buy solvent and oil separately to service them later on!
It's largely an intimidating bike due to the amount of plastic that needs to be removed to get at anything.
I love the way you show simple skills and lesser known tricks like the masking tape on the oil filter. Instead of reaching for the latest fancy wrench.
Thanks Conor! 👍 Simple skills that will save you a few bob and make life easier, and yeah, they have a lot of furniture hanging off them for sure. !
As usual, interesting and informative. Nice to get a vid early in the week!! But.... PPPUUUHHHLLLEEEAAASSSEEE START THE TRIUMPH!!!😳😳😳😖😖😖😫😫😫😂😂😂😂😍😍
Sure thing mate, sadly life gets in the way sometimes, not forgetting the day jobs, but next video, promise! Just got to finish editing, online Friday evening.
@@Moonfleet41 … watch what you say Del… these fans holding you to that promise!! Lol ..
Hi Del you always look for a excuse to start up your lathe. All them metal work classes at school payed off. Nice washer mate great skills and good camera work penny
Absolutely mate, one of the few things from school that still inspired me today... glad you enjoyed the video, PP says thanks, it's nice to be appreciated!
wow that filter buried behind stuff. i do have to say though the oil change is much easier than my harley. cool deal.
Try doing the air filter on a 1800 Goldwing. You could probably take the engine out of your car quicker :)
Changing the filters is no more difficult than any other bike = it's getting all the bodywork off without damaging it that scares me!
I swapped to a Simota filter on my '98 ZX6R and in ran like a hairy goat - had to go back to the factory air filter.
Well done.
What was your thoughts on getting big GW GL1500 with streets an roadways as narrow in your area? I could tell it's your with metal rivets an flat blacked out bike!
How ofter should I change the oil & filters from my bike?
you could just use a car oil drain plug washer costing like 50pence. Saves the remaking a drain plug from scratch.
new to the channel....what exhaust system do you have on that bike? it's very nice!
Welcome aboard!...Not sure on the brand, they were a stainless replacement set, with the three little circles in the end of each one, but I modified them a little to increase the volume.
(P) Fresh blood for the big black beast, and now she can breathe 😀👍🏻 hope to see you all soon.
Hey buddy.. yeah, annual blood transfusion, and ready for some miles..!
You have lovely Triumph Legend in the background :) :)
I replaced my oilplug washer with a copper one from a car. Got a bag with 20 for €10... 😉
Wait what??? Dell, I just bought a 1500.... have only ridden it twice. THe other vids I have seen show removing the pockets on the side (below the speakers) to get to the filter and I thought that was dumb... is it really this easy to change the air filter on a 1500?
Del, whats your opinion about copper washer for drain bolt? Which is better?
Both as good as each other mate, but in this instance the service manual for the Goldwing specifies aluminium, so I go with that as I have some!
Good question, I'd wondered the same! Oh, and thanks for the answer, Del!
A 5 second ad last an eternity and a 12 minute video is over just as you're getting into it.
Thanks mate, appreciate your support!
Tank you friend
Great job del 👍
Thanks buddy, Glad you enjoyed it
Did you put Simoniz black paint in your pressure washer to paint the bike :)
apologies for being nosey but after watching multiple videos that you have posted on TH-cam and realising that you are quite clearly a skilled and experienced motorcycle technician I was curious as to wether you work for someone or for yourself
Many years ago mate, these days it's just for myself...
Brilliant
nice wee job atb m8
Thanks Ian. Glad you enjoyed it
I have a 2014 Ultra Limited that doesn’t get ridden much at all for various reasons. I use Mobil 1 synthetic and was wondering how long you would recommend leaving the oil in before changing it? Like time wise?
Hey buddy, it depends largely on your climate, if you're in a cold, wet climate you'll get lots of condensation inside the motor on short rides and the oil will gradually get waterlogged, leading to rust on internal surfaces, but if you live say in Arizona where it's hot and dry, your oil will last much longer, unless you get the bike super overheated on continued short parade runs... many Harleys don't do high mileage and in that situation, just drop the oil every year as part of your annual service regime, it doesn't cost much compared to the life of your engine so why not spoilt your baby!
@@Moonfleet41 I live in Texas USA where. It gets cold in the winter but not like the northern climate. Whenever I ride the motorcycle I always ride it enough to get it up to temperature, so no short rides.
where's the link for that air filter ?
I have never changed the washer and no leaks. A little overkill if you ask me.
Overkill? A 10p washer, if you say so...
Greetigz from the Netherlands 👍👍
Well I have reused the Sump Plug on my 12 Goldwing Umpteen Times...it never Leaks.....
it does not appear to be deformed in any way...Hmmm..
"Hmmmm"? Not sure what that means? ... but if you're questioning the process, look how deformed mine was, if yours doesn't drop off the plug by itself, and it's jammed under the thread, then it is compacted and deformed, and your manual will always advise to replace it... and remember, it isn't just about leaking, the soft washer also acts to lock the thread and keep the plug in place in the repeated heat cycles any engine will go through...
How much did the bike lift cost?
Ah, wheels away that lovely piece of rather immaculate Wensleydale & then rolls on a whole six pot Stilton, complete with 237 panels of Tupperware 'crust' & an air filtration system that would have stopped Luke Skywalker's amazingly lucky 'lob' shot in it's somewhat 'shiny-bottom' little tracks!
(Heard from deep within the choke tubes - "Look mummy, it's the 'Eyeballs in the sky' grandad talk about!" Y'all : ) xx
The worrying thing is mate.. im actually starting to understand your posts now.. .should i be worried..lol!
@@Moonfleet41 - Nah, the worry comes when you can imagine Dolly Parton drag racing your Wing without the airbox.
Mother & Father of all hickies . . .
Hi Del, after your video, I immediately ordered Simota for my V-Strom 650 2007. Later, after reading the filter cleaning instructions, I saw that they recommend cleaning with a Simota cleaner and compressed air. As far as I know other air filters such as K&N, BMC and others, also treat with a special degreaser, but then with a low pressure water. So can I clean the air filter with specialized detergents from the other brands (K&N, BMC ...) and can I wash the Simota air filter with water?
That question, if you want specifics, would be best directed to Wemoto technical department so they can cover exactly things like warranty and liabilities, however, on my own bikes, I've had not just Simota, but K&N, Green Cotton, and even the foam Pipercross, all of them recommend their own detergent and 'specialised oil', but I just use warm soapy water to clean them, let them air dry and use a brief spray over with WD40, and they've always been fine... now as a warning, am sure that will court howling objections from the screaming haters, but it works for me and that's what I do, never had a problem, but it largely depends on the amount of dirt you're sucking in, and the environment.. and just as a quick for instance, if you live in a place where it rains every day, then you need the oil content to cut down moisture ingress, but if you live somewhere like Arizona in the desert, then you run them bone dry, because they'd dust up like a fly paper in 100 miles and block solid, you keep them dry and bang them out by hand every month or so... horses for courses and all that!
@@Moonfleet41 Thanks Del! Congrats for "Firing the Legend" keep doing what you do best!!!
Thank Mihail... I also think you tried to private message me on Facebook, unfortunately we have a problem viewing private messages, we've reported it to FB, but if you need to contact, you can email direct to: delboysgarage@yahoo.com !
@@Moonfleet41 Yes, it was me... but I find a way to contact you :) Good luck with FB problem.
Del make some more vids of the Shed Wing
The air filter is easier to do when the machine doesn't have a radio/cassette fitted like yours. I am surprised you didn't change the fuel filter while you had all the plastic off.
That top panel is just as easy to get off, and replace, with the audio unit fitted, it's just one extra plug to undo! And as for the fuel filter, it was replaced with the fuel pipe when I got the bike as it was weeping...
Another beautifully crafted, clear and concise video with clear instruction both verbal and video. Video editing first class. One to well proud of Delboy.
Thank you for your kind words both. Glad you enjoyed it!
Could a copper washer be used.?for oil drain bolt
Yep, but OEM uses aluminium, so going that.!
@@Moonfleet41 … answered my question too!! Hated hard plastic ones I countered few times.
what is the MOT? (sorry, from the states here, not familiar with that....some sort of inspection?)
Yes mate, exactly that, the acronym stands for Ministry of Transport, a Government devised test carried out by approved testing stations to make sure vehicles are safe to be on the road, have to have one every year on bikes over 3yrs old!
Of course you're going to make that washer!
Magical engineering, my friend.
Yeah, not paying £5 for a washer... the lathe pays for itself again aye..!
Can i ask about your gloves? Kind and where you get?
Here you go buddy, these are the ones, they do come in different sizes too! www.spanner-monkey.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&search=ssp57l&description=true&product_id=124418
Would you happen to know the name and brand of exhaust tips on your wing? I’ve been looking for same type with no luck.
Sorry mate, i got the bike with them fitted already and there is now brand name on them.!
@@Moonfleet41 Ok thanks for the reply. Also, I find it very difficult to find a mechanic who will touch my 89 gl1500 because it’s 32 years old. With your informative videos, I’m learning and doing the maintenance myself. Thank you!
what did you put on the sump threads del was that hylomar
Yes indeed mate, regular blue Hylomar.
Is that the name of the brand
Very nice and straight forward , great work sir
Is that your goldwing? What kind of exhaust is on it?
It's my Goldwing, replacement Stainless 6 into 2 system, no brand stamp on it.!
Masterful fashioning of the washer, Del. Those big ladies are beauties, aren’t they? I watched the part where you put the center stand down and then somehow moved the whole bike forward into the front wheel chock on your lift several times now. I’m still stymied as to how you did that! Beautiful day here… hope you folks are getting some good weather there as well. 🏍👍🏍
Hey Gary, Big old girls for sure, and yes indeed, getting them safe and sited on the lift can be a poopanter every time. Ive never dropped one, but i guess if you do then she's staying down until you can get a crane over to pick her back up..! The washer was a bit stingey really, but £5 with shipping for a genuine Honda one was just too much when i can wizz one off in a few minutes.! Rainy and sunny here now, usually English spring weather, '4 seasons in one day'.. but it'll be summer soon..! take care both and keep safe. D&Pxx
@@Moonfleet41 lol yessir I once had a rental Harley Electraglide blow over in a high wind storm out in Utah back around 2003. I couldn’t right her back up no matter what I did. I was basically out in the desert with no one around for miles. Finally some 3 husky Native American women stopped after seeing my predicament. If took the 4 of us. What a day- but I’ve always had that story to tell about winds and big ladies- both kinds. Stay safe! Hope warm sunny weather blesses you both. 😎
@@garya3056 Ha ha.. what a Glorious story, that's a life keeper that one, you couldn't write it better.!
@@Moonfleet41 Ha-! Yep from bachelor days and the trip was a milestone birthday present to myself. Flew into Las Vegas, rented the bike at the dealer and looped through most of the West. It was great.
oh no, im afraid to look in case we're getting more rattage!
Ha ha cant wait scimmage or not to scrimmage that is the question.
@@Butterfly07949 a lot of real estate there for glued on rubber mats🤣
Hi. What was the blue stuff you put on the oil sump bolt please?
Blue Hylomar mate.
@@Moonfleet41 thanks Delboy.
I been wondering bout that!! Getting me some!! Super!!
@@Moonfleet41 What does this stuff do? Is it recommended, or just an add-on by you, personally. I have never used anything on my oil pan bolts, meself.
Do not pre fill fill the oil filter as the centre hole is the clean side .drop something in there guess were it is going.
that bike's got a bigger engine than a coffin dodgers transport of choice, the Honda Jazz..
Del next time your playing with the wing any chance of showing how to remove the radio please
We don't have the radio on ours Andy, got made an offer for it we couldn't refuse! Email me mate if you need a hand though.
@@Moonfleet41 what's your email?mate
Just checked out the price of Weymoto air filter £99!!!!!! Your slightly dearer is 3 times the price!
Yeah, but they're washable, not throw away,.. so three filters along you're financially quits, and less junk in landfill !
👍
Boys where are you located? I am looking for good gl1500 . I am from felixstowe
What kind of sad OCD anorak wearing milky milky mechanic paints a line on his oil filter to count the increments of turn? ... oh yeah , that'll be me then !
I also use masking tape, an idea I knicked from a great mate . ...That'll be you then !
Peace and love brother 👍🏻☮❤
You know it makes sense Brother, Anoraks keep you warm, dry and a babe magnate for female train spotters, that way i get to interact with people more interesting than me, and i stay dry... what's not to like aye.! Have a great week chap, and keep safe.. D&Pxx
@@Moonfleet41
Like they say , try walking a mile in someone else's shoes. Great, now I'm a mile away and have a free pair of shoes ! 👍🏻☮❤
😎👍
(P) Good job Del.
Thanks Pete, hope you're keeping well there!
@@Moonfleet41 Trying to Del.
back to when you did useful videos
A do-it-yourself washer, what a brilliant idea. If you have a lathe ;-) and know-how.
Does the new airfilter need grease/oil/spray like the K&N I use on my two Enduros?
Günter from Nürnberg
The Simota filters come oiled and ready to use, and you can buy cleaning solvent and oil for when it's time to clean it later. Link is in the description.
@@Moonfleet41 Thanks, Del, that sounds like a perfect investment
So you need a lathe to sevice your Goldwing. Jeez i don’t think so.
maybe not "need"...but if you have it, why not use it..? saved me having to buy an overpriced sealing washer aye.!
Sad having everything covered up by plastic like that.
always a pleasure 👍
Nice armchair!
It's a full three piece suit ill have you know.!
So glad I didn't buy a Goldwing, far to much plastic to take off and put back 😉
Ah but Andy they're worth it for so many other reasons..!
Filtering out ...🤔
What ?
@@Moonfleet41 ...err ., a oil filter change.. and air filter .... Filters / filtering ? 🏍️
Aha, i get it. !
