@@DTMotorcyclesEssex legend. Got my CB125F last summer and don’t think I appreciated the amount of mechanical skills I’m lacking. Also think that you’d get a lot of views making videos of the plain simple stuff.
Thanks for your video, I learn more, I have Honda silver wing 125cc, it is easier for me because I am nifty 😁 It's time for changes, because the brakes no longer respond to the controls Thank you!
@@DTMotorcyclesEssex I really like the engines, to see them but I like the ones on the automatic, after I take the suzuki burgman 650 executive, I sell it, it has great safety, because everything I've changed, it's not chinese parts. Good luck in traffic!
You don,t need a rebuild kit you take the lid off your oil res on your bar an undo the lid an pump your front brake lever a few times this will push the pistons out just few pumps not lots cos there come out an there a git to get back in 👍
It does effect how tight bolts are when bolts aren't dry as intended. If i ever use a tiny amount i never torque them usung a torque wrench to be on the safe side
@@DTMotorcyclesEssex to be fair mate. This worked for me. My brakes were ceased and cleaning them helped. Ordered new pads but, I can see corrosion on the top rim of the pistons which won’t allow them to go all the way back in. Would be great if you could show how to replace the pistons . Got a bid on eBay at the moment of £40 for 2 new ones. Seller wants £55. Bit steep.
@@Labgorilla I would of made a video on how to rebuild the callipers but unfortunately I sold this bike on, I thought mine needed rebuilding but in the end I just used so much brake cleaner and elbow grease if the pistons won’t go back down you can use a spanner 🔧 to sort of push it in between the piston and calliper and twist it and force it down and then put it all back together see how your brakes feel if there still sticking then definitely rebuild them or replace them 👌🏻
@@Labgorilla but I will definitely be doing a video on rebuilding a brake callipers just need to wait until I come across a bike that needs it I’m glad my video helped you mate 👌🏻
Hi Danny did you install the headlight and bracket. as my headlight casing on mine is messed up and cracked and won’t line up so I can’t nip it up as it should be I’m thinking of getting a round headlight like yours is it easy enough to do also would it past the mot with aftermarket headlight
I bought my headlight of eBay for £11 and mounted it and wired it myself it was plug and play mate very easy and as long as your main beam and full beam work as they should it will pass mot yes mate would u like me to find the link for you ?
@@DTMotorcyclesEssex yes mate that would be great thanks! also did you keep the same clock I am worried about water getting in my electrics when I change the headlight as there won’t really be any coverage
when pushing the cinders back the brake fluid will go up to the top box and may leak as yours did on the handle bar
That shit brake clean is good nothing and from my experience with that caliper they want rebuilding every 5 years
Could you show how to change break levers, install a top box. Some basic stuff. Don’t find many vids on this at all.
Yeah buddy I sure can

I Love your Channels and these is for Ilu 💜♥️💙🌴😃💞💞🤩😁😁🦒🐆🐴🐎🦄🦓🦌🐮
Bro your camera work is bad , half the time we cant see what you doing.
Mate that was when I first started doing TH-cam looool I never even had a proper tripod
I dont think he knows what he's doing lol
Next time he shout try using the old pads & screwdriver in-between to push piston back
Have u purchased this bike in 2009

Appreciate this mate. Nice real world instructions. Thumbs up 👍😀

Thanks for the good tip mate 👌🏻
i am just checking in on this video i part stripped my front calliper put every thing in citric acid to remove rust and will reassemble tomorrow
Nice John 👊🏻👌🏻
Really good video mate keep them coming I use my Back break a lot
Nice one thanks George !!
Working my way through your vids, just one point you shouldn't be using copper slip on any bolts if your going to torque them up to spec
Really? I've always used it for bolts and torqued them up to prevent them seizing and never had no problems
It does effect how tight bolts are when bolts aren't dry as intended. If i ever use a tiny amount i never torque them usung a torque wrench to be on the safe side
Especially love the torque spec wait at the end. Did you say firty or firteen mate? That fucking dog was barking .
Think it was 30 mate
