What gear/engine oil do you run?
motul always been good to me / bike lol keep up the good work
Motul 710 and Motul Gear 300. Great vid as always!
I use Belray 80w gear oil for the transmission. I use champion WP2 oil (cheap and works well @ 50:1). I use them both in mine and my wife's bike I have a KTM300XC and she is on a 125exc. Gear oil and pre-mix are pretty personal and I'm sure you will see tons on opinions. Tried rotella in my bike and thought it got to shifting clunky way to quick. Went back to Belray. Its a little more, but worth it IMO.
Whatever you use make sure it meets the requirements of the bike manufacturer and make sure it does not have friction modifiers in it as it will damage your clutch.
Castrol Power 1 2 stroke and Silkolene Comp gear in the box
"the old 125"? The thing looks brand new. A real testimony of your skills!
Sean Raymond i got a 01 cr125 age dont matter it’s just how well you maintenance it
Your bikes are as always clean and well prepped.
I would like to see a video where you go through things in more detail, but know it all involves work for you and editing time.
Stuff like removing clutch cover,plate and basket check,replace plates,powervalve inspection and clean.Repack tail pipe.
Maybe a video about what tools and spares you take to track.I used to mechanic for Honda and Suzuki and had both dry and wet wheel setup all ready for a muddy downpour.Simple stuff like having a few sets of handlebars with the clutch side grip bonded on,and all the bars prepunched to show position on triple clamps and lever positions,just to save time after crashes.
And about having tools and spares on show,good as a team,but be careful about it if your alone and are away from truck .Stuff goes missing fast! Not that I condone riding alone,always have a mechanic/driver,or share truck with a friend who can drive if you hurt an ankle or worse.Plus having a friend on the same make and model lets you share spares like levers or throttle tube.
I should do my own videos but am retired and 110% lazy,and you do a great job of conveying tasks in a clear and simple way.
PS. Don't forget to order a piston for that CR250 build!
What do you mean getting ready for the riding season. Riding season is year around!!!
Always some amazing work. By the way, almost 8k subs in a month, glad to see your channel grow like that, you deserve it man.
Thank you! Yeah the channel has been on fire lately!
Oh my God! This idea with letting the throttle tube have some clearance with handlebar is a brilliant idea, i had some problems with my throttle return but now i think I can solve my problems. Well done, thanks man! Greetings :D
Happy to help!
sok_pomaranczowy I had a problem we’re when it was cold my throttle wouldn’t return figured it was dust from sitting in the garage all winter but it was just some stiff and dirty grease cleaned it up and the throttle was perfect
I was having some problems with mine too, I think this is my problem! Amazing how something so simple might be overlooked eh?
Haven't had a motorbike for about 30 years ,never had a motorcross bike but like watching your posts.
You have amazing skill my dude. I'd have you rebuild any of my bikes. Love your work. It's the art of cycling. Keep it up!
Cr500 build would be awesome
You do really good work Cameron. You inspire me to do the same on mine. Oh, and thank you for the tool tips. That brake bleeder looks like it will come in handy. Thank you.
Your 125 is cleaner than it would be off the show room floor
I love your channel! Please keep it up! Most channels are here & there tips, you hit everything! Looking forward to seeing the cr250 build finished & every other video you post!
Thanks Tyler!
Another Rotella user here, although I recently switched to synthetic. It has outperformed every motorcycle specific oil I have used. I’ve sent multiple samples to Blackstone labs to confirm this.
Brian Williams what do you mean by out preformed
Highline 519 meaning that the oil didn’t break down or shear nearly as quick!
Cameron, your a good mechanic and a great guy. I hope your health issues are a thing of the past.
God damn! Got so amazed when I saw we had the same chain lube! There is not many products that sells in both the States and Sweden!
Mix some oil and rip some soil.
lmao, nice one !
AuMechanic mixing gas and hauling ass
10:47 “Oh yeah she’s wet.” Had me laughing my butt off
Me tooo hahaha lol
cant wait to have a bike this nice!
Just learned a bunch of staff again with your videos, big hug bro, that CR looks beautiful.
“Oh yeah she’s wet” haha that’s what she said
MotionPro has so many good tools I love them!!
No doubt, good stuff!
my dream bike!
I bought the one-man bleeder that didn't work out for me. Then I noticed that I can use a caliper itself to bleed the brakes by opening and closing and pushing down on the brakes it works. The only thing that was tricky was that I have a spring on the brake caliper. I remove the spring that way I don't have a false reading of tension when I push down on the brakes
I use the exact same Oil for my KTM 65 shell 15-40👍
Sweet I use engine ice too lol. I just bought some more
Great video! The 125 is looking amazing🔥👌
Thanks dude!
I just found your channel and have been watching your cr250 build videos and it made me motivated about my 80cc enduro bike build! Now i know what to do exactly to bike to keep it fresh and good.
Thanks for watching the videos man!
Cameron your videos are very interesting, and all of your bikes look incredible.
Great video Cameron love all the videos before I watch them always know it’s great when you make them
Thanks man!
Me:brings my 110 to Cameron
Him:head seals gaskets fork seals and brakes need replacing and your valves need adjustment
Me: but it was running fine
Wow it’s a really good looking bike I just picked up a rebuild crf 250r can’t wait to ride it
I was just watching your graphic video and you can spray windex on the graphic and it allows you to move it around and when you have it at the placement you want you just let the windex dry
Please post more ride announcements!! I would have loved to meet you out at 7 mile!!!!
That's funny, I just got that motion pro brake tool and bled the brakes on my 450 last weekend, now you got a video on it
Hey Cameron, have you considered a Magura Hydraulic clutch? They make them for all sorts of bikes.
I have used them in the past, just prefer the feel of a cable setup
Looking at your videos convinced me i needed this fun in my life so i bought a bike its a shame that in the UK we don't have as much space as you do in the USA...
That's awesome I need to move out there I live in Orange in California
Your bike is sick
Thank You!
I like your videos before I even watch them since I know greatness awaits
Thx Nick!
Great vid! Just in time for me to do some spring maintenance on my bike to get it ready for the season! 🤘🏼
Thanks!
For my bike kx250 I use Honda pro hp trans oil and for the trx Honda pro gn4 10w-40 and for premix Castro 927 40:1
always like all your vids I want your channel to grow as much as possible you are one of my fav youtubers
how often do you bleed brakes?
Thanks! I bleed them about once a year.
I really want to ride with you sometime. I am down in Oregon.
I'm sure I'll be down near Portland at some point with the bikes!
That would be sick! I am in a little town called Newberg.
😆Oh She's Wet ! Lol
Great Video as always 👍
Haha thanks!
My kick starter doesn’t stop if that makes any sense. After I kick it it stops when it hits the case. It’s a 2004 yz 125 any ideas would help. I thought it was the spring but the kick starter still returns flawlessly.
Its probably the stopper on the back gear is broke, same thing happened on my yz and it was a pain to replace, have to take the whole clutch basket out to replace it! Good luck!
Dang it 😂 that sounds fun. Thanks for the reply dude.
Brady 2017 no problem!
Goin to make me grab a CR125 hahahah 🤦♂️
ColinRogers Films do it. They're great bikes lol
MX4Life 248 My garage is getting to crowded lol, moving to a bigger work space at the end of the month. Going to start filming a yz125 Revive I just picked up, along with rm85 and yz250fx builds at the start of May.👌 CR125 will probably aper some where in July 🤷♂️🤦♂️ and.. the collection continues haha. Wouldn’t be where I am today or as confident with my builds if it wasn’t for Cameron’s hard work. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
ColinRogers Films damn haha my dad has like around 8 bikes here so his garage is full. Alongside a car and a sandrail dragster. He has multiple bikes that are projects right now because money's an issue when it comes to bikes lol
If you can find one that is haha!
Cameron Niemela PREACHHHH
I use mag 1 for my throttle cable it was the detached from the inside. i dont like useing wd40 it stays inside and does not drain
He said it needs work😂 it looks brand new to me
Good video all in all... interesting on the grease useage, I like using the dry lube. Lastly, use some enduro bar ends/plugs, saves blown out grips and prolongs the life of them big time.
I swear I thought I was the only one that greases the crap out of my levers lol
10:46 :)
Do you have a video of change the rear shock linkage bearings
Whats the idea with having the earth up buy your kill switch.
Cool bike
I run Honda's 80/85w gear oil. I'm about to look into running what you run. I change mine after 5 hours and it's expensive. lol.
Awesome seeing you working on the cr125 again, that bike is in its pryme!! 🙄
Nice work man I run putoline both engine and gear box oil
Fox makes shoes that’s cool
Grazie per i sottotitoli 👍🏻💪🏻
I use honda engine desinged oil for my 05 cr 125
On my cr 125 I run 40:1 but also at the bottom of my right fork I think it leaks, but it’s a the bottom, is it another seal?
I use belray or motul oils in my bikes
I come from Viet Nam, and I love your video Cameron.Thanks you
Thanks for watching!
Do you want the same amount of slack on the brake lever also
Dude, your on the good side of the state!
Yep!!
Where can i buy these graphics, they look really nice
You're really putting grease on the throttle cam? i've always run the throttle assembly completely dry... Keep dust and dirt from sticking in there
i put grease there aswell cuz it makes the tube slide better
Could you use wd-40 in stead of cable lube? Or are they basically the same thing?
It is riding season year around where I am at! :)
Engine ice works wonders haha , I love that stuff , especially because I live in the high desert where it's hot as hell and I only ride desert 🌵 # kx 250 # kawi 💚
Engine ice is nothing special. It's just marketing at $44 a gallon. If you want low toxicity coolant any propylene glycol option will work at half the price. An ethylene glycol (standard automotive coolant) is actually more effective at heat transfer.
If you are looking for maximum thermal transfer and aren't in an area below freezing run straight distilled water with water wetter like everyone running on the track.
Make your decisions based on engineering data, not marketing wank.
What about changing your Jetting for the different Temps ?
great tool!!!!!!! running motul or petronas oils
were did u get the restyle kit from coz i have a 03 cr125 and the plastics are abit out dated
i love watching your videos
Loving the 125!
Thanks!
Teboil Hypoid is 10/5
"Oh yeah she's wet!" LMAO
i use 75-80 for gear oil
Where did you get the 2 stoked sticker? Can’t find it anywhere
Trying to get inspired to go tinker on my bike
Excelente los vídeo saludos desde Argentina ... Seré curioso el cr es modelo 2008 ?
Sharpest 125 around 👍🏻
Gostei dos macetes o que gosto dos seus vídeos a forma que vc usa os macetes e tenho uma Honda tornado 250 2008 é o meu chodo e as manutenções preventivas quem faz sou eu e com vc melhorei muito só luxo hehehe.
At 14:25 is there any other reason the throttle could stick. Thanks. Good video.
i love watching these videos!
Thanks!
Where can I find some engine ice
WAIT YOUR IN SPOKANE???? DUDE I NEVER KNEW THAT!!!!!
I have a 2000 cr 250 would like to get a newer one
great videos man keep up the good work
Thanks Jared!
Cameron Niemela no problem
I am guessing you have a deal with Motion Pro? Why did you not use the Motion Pro rim protectors when changing out tyres in the recent video?? I bought some but not used them yet!
Great video, man! Very handy summary. Question: If you tighten spokes every three rides, don't you eventually over-tighten them? I tap the spokes with the wrench listening for lower tones - means that one's looser. Ideally they all *ting* the same. Again, thanks for this one!
Thanks! I more so check the spokes every couple rides. The sound method is definitely helpful
Absolutely amazing!
Thank You!
As always excellent content!
My 2001cr125rhonda can't start I got gas and spark can someone help me
U should do an oil change every 2 rides on a 2 stroke.
Andrew Fahey its not nececary
Yep
You don’t measure anything like oil changes in rides. You measure in hours
thanks dude good tips
Great video. What grease to you have in your gun and where did you get the mini gun?
Thanks! Link for the grease gun is in the description. I'm using the grease that came with it.
It is a beautiful CR 😍sell it to me friend🙌
Um dia serei um mecanico igual ou melhor
I love your channel, keep going:)
Thank You!
