Love that trick with the socket and extension to get the pots out.
That one blew my mind as well!
Watched the video this evening and had to use the socket trick straight away on my classic cars calipers - great trip!
@@CajunGreenMan Yeah!!!
I was thinking the exact same thing lol.
Thanks for the tip using a socket and ratchet to remove the pistons, worked a treat 👍
No problem 👍
Friday and Tuesday are my favourite evenings!!
I'd just finished my fronts on a zrx1100 which were really stuck. Then your video popped up and I saw your technique for removing the pistons. That's absolutely brilliant. Wow I haven't seen any technique this cool in wrenching bikes since 1978. lol.
Most wecome mate. Glad I could help, really appreciate the kind feedback.
Like the socket trick. I know I will use it someday. Always a Pleasure Take Care.
Bradley Thompson me too, never seen that before!
3:34 that's why i have pressed the like button
thanks mate! very helpful video.
Blimey what a great trick with the Extension and socket with the pots, every video of yours is worth watching Del for these Gems of experience for us that don’t know, top man…
Glad you enjoyed it Paul, you're most welcome, am glad you enjoy what we do, and thank you for your support in all ways.
That method of taking the pistons out blew my mind right out the back of my head. That is elegant and ingenious. Now excuse me while I look for my jaw, it must have dropped somewhere around here
Ha ha.. Comment of the day buddy... Simple trick aye.. basic stuff for any mechanic..!
A handy thing I find to use instead of blue roll is cheap large puppy pads.
Think the wife picked up a pack of 10 A3 size pads for €5, there clean and absorbent and easy to fold out.
8 of 12 pistons where stuck. Your trick worked. But still had to use a lot of force to the them to move. Perfect timing on the video. Thanks!!
Glad it worked for you Petter..
Yes please!!!!
This project is absolutely fascinating.
Hi Del, you probably don't remember but about 3 years ago I messaged you saying how I enjoyed your video's and it helped me through my cancer treatment even gave me the mojo to get my RGV sorted, you and penny kindly sent me a cap and some stickers, well the treatment seems to have worked and I'm still here watching every video!! just wanted to say I'd decided to have my 6 pots on my bandit 12 rebuilt, and the next day this video pops up, so I gave it ago myself and have saved myself about £150 😊😊👍 cheers
Hi Stuart, Wow, thats such good news buddy, you beat the bad guy for sure.. and so glad you're well again and still faffing about with bikes.. Massive respect for kicking back and getting your mojo back, it's easy to fall into self pity and give up, no doubt you're made of stronger stuff aye. Glad the video saved you the rebuild, nothing better then getting it done yourself mate.. Take care, Ride safe, and enjoy every day Stu... Keep in touch mate, be good to hear from you any time.. D&Pxx
Very therapeutic as ever Del - enjoyed that (and I too loved the socket trick!)....
Hi buddy, good to hear from ya, yeah simple stuff aye... just absolutely love the ol' Granddad hacks, serve you for a lifetime!
Can't beat the look of a freshly rebuilt caliper. Nice work as usual. 👍
Nice!! The exact ones my 2002 Kawasaki Mean streak rocks. 👍🏽
Delboy, you the man. Brilliant tip to get the pots out. Never would've thought of doing that. Educational as always. Learnt so much from your vids. 👍👍👍
I absolutely adore the process of laying everything out and being methodical.
Cool piston trick
We discovered my RF Caliper on my Boulevard C90 was weeping last night. Tokico 4 Pot. This rebuild don't look to bad to do, I might go that route!
Fantastic video Del, thank you. Great tip for getting the pistons out. Great work
Thanks so much for the socket trick to get the pistons out - That's saved me a lot of grief!
Nice vid Del,some people are put off doing caliper rebuilds but you have shown how straightforward it is, clean clean and more cleaning,always does the trick, hell of a lot cheaper to do the work yerself,👍👍👍🤘
Hi I watched this video yesterday and it worked great the socket technique was brilliant thanks
No problem 👍, glad it helped mate.
After a stressful week this has proved a great tonic! Keep at it!
Way to work Del! Thanks for the nifty trick, keep it up.
Super video👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Dell, nice and tide job. Good trick that one with the socket, first time I've seen it. Thanks for that. Have a great weekend . Gus
Now I know how to pull out that stubborn piston that I am jostling with. Hopefully I can ride again very soon! Always something informative in your videos Del. Great work!
I took my Busa out for a ride for the first time in six months yesterday and found that I don't need to pull the brake lever to stop, so your brake refurbishment video will help.
Great video and thank you!
Huge thanks for that piston trick, really helped with my rebuild.
Thx for the detailed elaboration.
Finally was able to reassemble.
Tomorrow is filling on the list
You made that look super easy, great idea with the 7mm socket I like that!
just great watching a job done properly!
I used a tool similar to a bearing bridge puller to remove the pistons.
Good idea with the socket! Great video!
I find it hypnotically fascinating to watch a great mechanic at work. And this guy is a great mechanic. Meticulous work. I once spent a frustrating & increasingly angry hour looking for a 10mm spanner whilst working under an old TVR, a spanner that I knew I'd already used that day. Eventually found it next to the kettle where I'd made a coffee earlier. Since then, I've laid out all tools and parts on an old towel, like a surgeon, exactly as Del does. Takes time but avoids stratospheric blood pressure readings and makes working on my bikes so much easier.
Thanks for sharing your story mate, we're glad that a little tip or trick equals lower blood pressure! Ride safe and thanks for your support.
That is a great tip with the socket del u always learn something new with your vids thank you m8
this was awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Nice video ,you are the best
I watched this video before I rebuilt my Nissin 4 pot calipers. I was so confident thanks to you Delboy and that I thank you for my friend. 🙏🏼
Great to hear, you're welcome!
That was a proper job and a pleasure to watch, Del. I especially liked your piston removal tip. Good stuff! 👍
Cheers Keith, simple stuff aye.. See you Sunday buddy..
That's a neat trick with the socket, i will remember that , thanks
Another intuitive video sir, always a pleasure to watch and lean from you. Great method with the socket and extension to release the pistons. 👍
Been working on bikes for years and this is the first time ive seen that socket trick. will have to try it next time ive got a seized piston. Great vid
Piece of cake Dell!!!!!
Liked the trick with the socket and extension bar!!
You make it look so easy. 👏👏👏👏👏
Wow bro, que sorprendente tu conocimiento y compartirlo además, eres increíble, saludos hermano, ya pronto veré lo de la placa
Very informative video, thanks for this👍
Such a nice video Del. Many thanks!
ps: i have seen him 3 times already :-D is a pleasure !
Just found that I need to strip and rebuild the calipers on my ZX6R so this video is priceless - really clear and logical and it has dispelled most of the fear I had! Thank you
Thanks Chris, so glad to hear the videos help you out...have also emailed you privately, you know why, thank you so much for your support... good luck with your projects, hope all goes well, all the best, D&Px
Top job del look great too love all your hard work mate
Another great job Del . I really do like watching your work.
Excellent video. The socket and ratchet tip is a goodun. Cheers
Awesome video. Thanks for teaching us a new trick.. Penny and You Del Ride Safely and have A Wonderful Weekend.
Thanks Paul, you too buddy, ride safe, and enjoy the sunshine! D&Px
Master work !!!
You always make this stuff look so damn easy!! Wicked video!
NEATO trick with the socket and ratchet getting the piston out. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.
Great video as always so laid back and no dramas...brilliant
Sure thing mate, easy task.. Glad you enjoyed it
great way to finish off a friday at work.
Excellent video as usual.
Great vid!! Was waiting for that one! 👍
love the quotes at the end
Te felicito, nada más por el truco de extraer los cilindros atorados... no me lo sabía!
Brilliant, just got all 6 pistons out of mine using the clever socket idea. Now need to clean, & get new seals etc & hope I can bleed them successfully.
I think a close up view of how you seated the seals and pistons would've be excellent for the noobs. Great video nonetheless. Thanks !
Top content, appreciate it a lot sir.
Watch a cracking pair you’ve got buddy 😂😂, great rebuild, as you said, as good as new, great vid as always, love to Pen, regards Stu 🤘🤘
From America: "We can always learn something." My 2000 Hayabusa has stuck front brake calipers. This man is a master mechanic, he knows what he's doing. Now to find out how to bleed these calipers... and, what's the cost of rebuilding versus the cost of buying new ones? Anyhow, this guys is a First Rate Top Mechanic, tripe A+. The little tricks of cracking the bolts on the bike and rotating the pistons. WOW. Really smart. This guy is a pure genius.10-20-23
Wish i'd known about that trick with the socket when I did mine. 👌
Another smashing vid! I as well, sure wish I would have known about the caliper piston socket trick back in 1988, fighting with my RD350LC seized brake calipers from hell, lol!
Great work
That trick with the socket is awesome. Thanks for that !!
No problem!
Looking mighty good, Del. Nothing like watching the master at work! 🏍👍🏍
Thanks mate, have a good weekend!
Moonfleet41 😎
Best video for tokico six pots I can rebuild mine with confidence after watching this, thanks
Most welcome Sir, glad it helped!
Every days a school day!! Nice one bud
thank you so much man! I have to do just this job on my 99 Srad 750, you explained the work to be done really well .. a big thank you from an Italian colleague
Will be using the socket and extension trick in the future, just wish someone had told me about it 30 years plus ago when I think of the number of pistons I've wrestled with over the years. Thank you
Master at work.
Você realmente e incrível 👏
Thanks Delboy, used that trick today on a 25mm piston, worked a treat to twist out a seized piston
Invaluable video! I wish I saw that 10 yrs ago when I rebuilt my calipers for the very first time in my life with only a manual as point of reference and no way as perfect a job as you did. Im sure you removed the fear of caliper rebuild with that vid. Well done bro, your the master and Im the grasshopper.
Hey Volvi, that's very kind of you mate, simple stuff aye, just a case of being meticulous and doing a nice clean install... have a great weekend, ride safe, D&Px
great vid.
never seen a caliper rebuilt before, not as scary as i imagined, and the trick with the socket was great, great video
Simple stuff aye mate.. just House Keeping.!
great video man !! Thanks !!
Great job as always!
Love your little tricks ("need a tool make aw tool" hehe)
Greetings from Spain
Gracias mi amigo, es bueno saber de ti, te deseo un buen fin de semana.
great vid, i wish I had known about getting the piston out 3 weeks ago, oh well I know now lol
I like that up date of the board.
Great vid del.
Cheers mate.. a little old school wisdom at the end of a shift aye..!
They look exactly the same as the calipers on my Zx7r. Have been thinking that they could do with a rebuild... Another of your videos added to favourites!
Great tips❤️
prelepo odradjeno
Hvala ti puno
The sun is out 24C . Back from 250km ride and a nice way to end the day with Del's new video. Nice job mate, great trick with the socket. Have to remember that one. Penny and you have a relaxing weekend. Cheers
You too buddy.. im envious of your long ride.. but sun's out, and im playin' out tomorrow..!
Just used the socket trick, works perfect!
nice video love the socket trick fab
Nice job thanx a lot
Surgical precision and attention to detail..👍🏽
New to this, and loving my zx6r g2. Oldschool analogue era. I would like to know how to keep it in good condition, ie, brake and disc change, oil and filters ect. I presume its pretty much the same for all older bikes is it mate? Cheers.
Thanks for the socket trick!! I used it tonight to remove my pistons in the same caliper as yours. Great job on the video!!
Most welcome buddy, use whatever works aye?!
@@Moonfleet41 I am rebuilding the same caliper. What torque setting did you use for the body bolts?
@@ericvannattan9181 Final full torque value is 21Nm, but don't got straight to it... torque them in three stages, i go 10Nm, 15Nm, and then up to 21Nm... and obviously as they are a long slim casting, it helps to toeque them in sequence.. i go "top most, bottom most, lower middle, upper middle".. that way you won't distort anything mate.!
Another fine video good sir
nice job, thanks
No problem 👍
Evening chap another great vid what a cracking way of getting the pistons out no more using grips lol
Have a good weekend 👍👍✌️
GRIPS?... Wash your mouth out Mr M... thats just shameful lol.! (i suppose they'd be plumbers grip too in your case then..? @:-)
Moonfleet41 well of course that’s what I use most of the day mate 😂😂😂well not anymore 🤞honest
like everyone else, love the trick getting the pots out. Rippa!!!!!!!!
