Did the exact same procedure, like you showed. Had huge problems afterwards with the engine overheating. Turns out i had to vent the system multiple times, because there was so much air in the radiator.... Further on nice vids brother
Yeah, that's pretty common to many bikes, even my Hayabusa ! far too many places for air to get trapped for you to just "top it up".. if you look up the overall quantity needed in the manual, and measure what you put in, you'll be able to see how much you still have to feed in when it overflows... just run the engine with the cap off and the air should bubble out once the system starts circulating.!
Nicely done, Del. Those old plugs sure have seen better days! Not an easy item to change out on the Husky either it seems. After watching this video, I realized I’ve never changed the coolant on my Fatboy! 🙄 Hope you and Penny are doing well. Stay safe… 🏍👍🏍
Morning Gary, good job you don't have to change coolant on the FatBoy, that would mean leaving a supply of it in the garage and you know how the MIL gets stroppy after a couple of pints of the green stuff! Thanks for asking, we're both getting there and appreciate you thinking of us, have a great week both, D&Px
Been off for the German TransEuroTrail with may Transalp 600. Have some catching up to do now. Great that you keep to your strict schedule of two videos per week. And thanks for a comfy Sunday evening. Cheers, Günter from Nürnberg/Germany
Every single project, I end up being both sad that it's over, yet excited to see the new one begin lol. I love seeing the maintenance videos, no matter the subject/bike/brand, regularly sprinkled in, though! :D
Thanks mate, that's very kind, the two jobs on the Shedwing are absolutely critical as you'll see, i can't side step them, the bike is literally off the road until i get this done.. Thank you for your kind and loyal support as always mate..
Totally struck out on finding anything that wasn't ridiculous money.. Nothing from YSS, or any other off the shelf company, so would have had to have something custom made and just don't have the budget for that. It's a Sachs unit, in perfectly good condition so it'll have to remain.!
@@Moonfleet41 .. I didn’t have enough buy for my shadow !! It’s expensive!! Gee!! I liked the one you installed recently, here wanted $1,200 for pair….
Bike looks awesome brother !!! Can't wait for the next project reveal ! 1 million subscribers coming soon brother !!! stay safe guys cheers from new york! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Thank you, as always, for your wonderful support brother... that many subs would be awesome some day, but I think we're a few years away from that yet!! We'd probably get there quicker if we made videos of the cat falling in a fish tank, you know how it is these days!! Have a fabulous weekend both of you, take care and keep safe, D&Px
Nice job Del Holy crap that inner p.ug must be a right cavity for collecting water and moisture. Looking forward as always to the last episode. Nick Australia
Sure thing mate, not a great design, perhaps could have done with a little drain hole but I guess it's a basic little engine! Have a great weekend mate, and stay safe!
Great video as usual. Did you flush the pipes out with cold water? I always run my bikes up to temperature when flushing to remove all the sediment that gets stuck in the voids? Them plugs were propper rusty think it had a hard life before you got it 😉
That is not a lot of coolant. I just had to do an Indian Scout and you have to pull a frame member to properly burp the cooling system. What a pain. So satisfying to see the project coming to conclusion.
Can't knock talent mate; I mean, none of your stitches ever show through, even on full-screen, & replacing that neck bolt with Dzus fasteners was sheer genius. Y'all : )
That’s looking like a proper show room job right there Del. One thing though, unless I missed it, you didn’t use copper slip on the spark plug threads, any reason?
It's alive!! Great job as always Del. I could see you squinting a bit with the feeler gauge. I'm sure your mince pies are better than mine. I would have definitely needed specs. Looking forward to seeing the gold wing again and your next project. Have a great rest of the week both. 🇸🇪🇬🇧😊👋🏻
Thanks Paul.. i've been resisting the glasses for years mate, i can still read tiny print on feeler gauges or in manuals, so im happy with that, news papers however, it seems that my arms are no longer long enough, but i can read it if i throw it on the floor..! Couple of essential jobs on the Shedwing coming next while i wait for the upholstery, then it'll be time for the final sign off and reveal the new project.!
@@Moonfleet41 Lol I know the feeling well Del. Had glasses for a couple of years now. It's hard to get used to the fact that I'm totally blind without them and having to rely on them for everything. Just fitted orange bulbs and smoked glass lenses on front indicators. The rear ones have built in stop and tail lights which tidies up the rear end nicely on the new Street Bob. Waiting for some black tubes to fit over the chrome top fork legs as it's black gaiters fitted and the bottom fork legs are black. Lots of other goodies coming. Can't wait for spring! 🇸🇪🇬🇧😊👋🏻
Very good as always D&P! Aha I love the ‘ShedWing’ videos!!! That bike is awesome! That one snuck into the garage haha You have to take us for a ride along video one day 😎 and of course , excited for the new project coming up, but as always, a brilliant turnaround on this one, never expect otherwise, ride safe both x Luke
Glad you enjoyed it Luke, it's a great fun project and great to deal with the bike that isn't full of decay and rot... looking forward to the next project already. And thanks for your kind words on the Goldwing, she's a big daft ol' girl, love riding it... and it will feature again in the next couple of videos! Stay safe, all the very best, D&Px
I think the unique colour scheme on this bike will appeal to a prospective purchaser that may not have considered it prior. Like how the final appearance is coming together.
Thank you so much for those kind words, i chose to keep the bike very traditional to the Husqvarna Nuda colours, it's been popular on that iconic bike for years and was a pretty safe bet from the off.. Really appreciate your kind words of support as always. Take carer and keep safe. Del.
Thank you so much Iain, i have to admit to allowing myself a little private pride in this bike, i set out to turn a mediocre bike into something a lot more high end and better finished, more like the glorious Nuda 900, and i think it's not too far off... im excited to assemble the final parts once the upholstery is back and present it to our loyal viewers as a final result.... Then on to the next project.
Hi Del and Penny, it's coming along nicely and with the usual excellent video production. Such a pleasure when a new video comes along. Take it easy, ride safe - both of you!
Fatt ‘whys he doing that… (realises why) well yeah, whatever’ nice on del keep it up fatt is a muppet with a muppet channel the only views come from this channel haha as he’s always gonna do something that never materialises the workshop lol the gobshop
Hi, There is a drain plug on water pump. No need to disconnect the pipes. :-)

@@Moonfleet41 haha ya got me good! 😎 Stay well, my friends…
The maintenance jobs always makes the Project complete and still good to watch 👍
hello. Have you had the typical stalling problems? how did you request them? Thank you
Hi, Del. Congrats on getting so close to the finish line. It will be amazing if you also share a ride video ;-)
I cannot wait to see it on the road!
Thanks Abouzar 👍 Good to hear from you.

Damn, that bike looks a million dollars. Came up so good. You sir, have created a masterpiece. Love it..
Thank you most kindly Sir..
Ahhhh, that explains why the belly pan is still off.
I reckon the new project is a Honda Postie bike. CT125😂😂
One question... What about the rear shock absorber? Wasn't it going to be changed for a new one? Great job by the way.

Watching that coolant flush reminds me of when I go for a pint. As soon as I have one I'm it's coming out 😂
Great video Del.

Looking forward as always to the last episode.

looks good sounds great
Ahh, rad caps, they can be easy to get to or remove several panels to get access... things like that make people want to skip the maintenance.
Couldn't agree more mate, which is why it's always good to do these jobs!
this has been a great series Del👍
Thanks mate, have enjoyed it too, and looking forward to the next one!
Great video as usual. Did you flush the pipes out with cold water? I always run my bikes up to temperature when flushing to remove all the sediment that gets stuck in the voids? Them plugs were propper rusty think it had a hard life before you got it 😉
Ngk spark plugs mmm
That is not a lot of coolant. I just had to do an Indian Scout and you have to pull a frame member to properly burp the cooling system. What a pain. So satisfying to see the project coming to conclusion.
You're right, only a liter of coolant and just two litres of oil, a very frugal bike.. Thanks for your support as always mate.
The still! Watch that green stuff, any drips will likely burn clean through the garage floor & into Penny's laboratory : )xx
... you don't wanna know what she gets up to there!
Can't knock talent mate; I mean, none of your stitches ever show through, even on full-screen, & replacing that neck bolt with Dzus fasteners was sheer genius. Y'all : )
well now I gotta PEE!!!!
Looks like both the items definitely needed a change! Great camera work Pen 👏🏻
Thanks Cotti, appreciate your kind words and for noticing the camera work, it's a lot work but worth it if it's appreciated, catcha soon mate, D&Px
It's really looking great Del! Congrats.
Thanks Shaun!
nice job del as normal
Looks and sounds great.
Congratulations on a job well done.
Thank you!
Great progress , so near the end , can't wait for next project
Thanks Andy. You and me both!
That’s looking like a proper show room job right there Del. One thing though, unless I missed it, you didn’t use copper slip on the spark plug threads, any reason?
Really Kwel video!! Great quote of the day! Must’ve taken LOTs patience getting into the tight spots!!! Job well done!! Really looks great 👍
Thanks so much, and you're right, the style of the bodywork doesn't lend itself well to routine maintenance!
Hi Del & Penny, another job off the list mate. Have a great week and stay safe. Cheers
Thanks, glad you enjoyed, you too, D&Px
