Recently found your channel. You have inspired me to start doing my own maintenance on my 2009 1200 gs.
Great 😃👍🏻
Thank you for your help!!!! Here I am changing the brakes of my 2009 BMW 1200GS, almost 40k miles!!! Happily saving money in the maintenance to use on the road, traveling… taking my kids, my wife for a ride!!!!
I have seen all your videos, and these are very good! Well done!
Thank you very much! 👊🏻👍🏻😉
I’m 64 yrs old. I started riding again about 2 year ago. I now own 5 motorcycles. After a crooked mechanic tried charging me $11k for breaking my 2007 Royal Enfield Bullet 500 I stared doing my own maintenance and repairs. Your hints and tips videos have been very helpful. Btw, I have two BMW’s. A 1997 r850r w/ 105,000 miles and a 2013 1200rt w/45,000 miles. Much appreciated. Oh, I use cheap harbor freight tools. Occasionally, when using my torque wrench I attach the digital torque on the manual torque to make sure it’s in spec.
First of all you have a great sense of humour!
Second you have the best maintenance videos in TH-cam especially for bmw, because that's the bikes that i ride the last 10 years, and i also do things on my own.
Your videos are complete with details and very helpful for a newbie and also for someone who has some skills in engineering because you are the Old good Mechanic!!
Greetings from greece!! And if you have a trip here send me to roll together with the bikes and drink some Beers!!!
Keep up the good work!!
Hi thanks for your kind comment ! 👍👍😉
yeah, you are my best master..... thnks for all
Thanks Ersin 😉👍🏻👊🏻🏍
My rear calliper on my XR is the same and I take off and clean, works perfectly, been doing the same with the front callipers and the dust seals have pushed up next to the pistons, the garage serviced the bike and didn’t see, I pumped out the pistons to clean them and saw the rubber and they were difficult to push back. I find you get less done at the garage and the price keeps going up, mu bike has 60,000 miles, bought almost new Hayes callipers for the same price as seal kits for both sides. I really like the clear and concise way you explain things.
Thanks mate ! 👊🏻👍🏻🏍
Thank you very much, I enjoy the ability to do these things myself, let alone the savings. I have a 2010 gs1200r adventure, love the bike. Your channel works perfect for me. Thanks again.
I've watched many your clips. You have helped me so much I thank you so much. Your a great help. And always do a great job 👍
Thanks Alan 👍🏻👊🏻
I've just got a gs1200r 2005 model 1 owner only 5000 miles. Stood 11 yrs. So following your great vids to fully service the bike. Cheers

Hi Dirk, your welcome
In the past I had a R1200s on which I did all the routine maintenance. A couple of years ago I traded it in for a new Triumph which I am too scared to touch. Your videos are tempting me to go back to an old BMW, I am considering an R nine T.
Good choice Sandy !
ok firstly I subscribed to your channel because I like your wrench (hammer)......that put a smile on my face .........I have two beamers.........R12ooGSA 2015 and more recently acquired a R60/6 1974 Classic....... now I watch as many TH-cam vids as possible for info on how too's.......which is how I came across yours too......... keep them coming chap......regards Phil
Spot on TOM.. Nothing beats doing you're own maintenance.. Would love to see fuel gauge repair TOM..Your videos is slow enough for us mortal DIY wrenchers!!! Salamat!.
I love your 'shop towel on a roll' !
Loving the Humor and very detailed content that you put out. Love that you give as much tips and detail on how to service and take care of the bike, unlike the other videos out there. Thank you
Hi Christo, for guys like you I make these video's. Greets from The Old Mechanic.👍🏻👊🏻🏍
Hello, So nice to find your TH-cam channel! I have the same bike, GS1200 2010, now with 180.000 Kms it's my bike since new. Just serviced at the Dealer for 10.000KM and 60.000Km to have BMW warranty. I do the maintenance here at home, it's fun, easy and better service quality than many dealers. Thank you Sir! Love your videos !!!!!! Keep going !! hahahhahahahahah
Regards from Israel my friend,
You’re great sir
And thank you for your knowledge
Your simply the best...
Great movie!
I like that you show the cleaning and lubrication process. This allows inexperienced people to properly use BMW service procedures.
A dose of humor makes your videos unique.
Thanks a lot!
Thanks Aleksander !
Just bought a R1200GS 2012, I am glad I found this channel. Thank you for sharing the knowledge. Greetings from Indonesia :)
Your welcome
Thank you so much for this video and the detailed MotoScan reviews. Just replaced my rear brake master cylinder on my 1200RT and changed front/back brake fluid as guided by you using MotoScan. Totally successful and keep up the good work.
Your welcome Peter 👍🏻👊🏻
Hi old mechanic, thank you very much for your help, it's always a pleasure for me to watch your channel. I no longer knew how to install the top spring, now I can continue my work..
Glad to hear that! 😉👍🏻👊🏻

I greet you from Argentina. Another excellent video, they really cheer me up. Thanks again
Thanks Cesar
Great stuff thanks
Wederom een mooie en goed uitgelegde video, ik sleutel op dezelfde manier.
Hoi bmwtoledo, thanks dat hoor ik graag. Volgens mij zijn er niet zoveel monteurs meer zoals jij en ik. 👍😉
I've got a 2009 gsa & your videos are top quality 👌 & very informative. Ignore the trolls & keep up the good work
Thanks Keith 👍🏻👊🏻

😉🏍👍
Would enjoy a clutch change video on a r1200 gs 😀
Just discovered your channel. Amazing guy you are, very pacient. Regards from Romania
Your cool, thanks
Thank you too 👊🏻👍🏻😉
Hi old mechanic, maybe for the new to the tools viewer. Taking a picture on the mobile phone as they disassemble parts might be a good idea. Just a confidence thing. 👍
great job......greetings
Love your videos, nicely done. 👍
Hi Jeff, thanks mate. 👍🏍
Hello Old Mechanic from the USA, I love your channel. I hope in the future you will do more work on the Kawasaki 1500 Classics. I own a 2001. Because of your video on changing the clutch plates I was able to work on my clutch plates. You are the best. Thank you again and I will be watching for those Kawasaki's. Keep them coming. Stay well.
Randy
Thanks Randy, I am sure that my friend will come over again with his great Kawasaki, its a pleasure to do maintenance on that machine 👍🏍😉
Yr the best
Thanks 👍🏻👊🏻
Mooi videos man, respect. Ik kijk jou videos hier in uk. Ik ga binnenkort terug verhuizen naar Rotterdam met mijn BMW r1200gs lc. Ik hope dat ik krijg wel een korting : )
Hoi Bilal Leuk dat je mn kanaal volgd 😉👍🏻👊🏻
The great work again❤. Will you do video change front brake disc? I want to change front disc and I don't know how. Thaks for everything a you are the best💪.
hello mate, i just found your channel and i love it!!!! can you tell me what liquid you use to clean the caliper??THANKS FOR YOUR CHANNEL!!!
I too would love to know this...I will keep reading comments to see. Other than that, awesome video...thanks TOM
I love your channel. Simple and honest. A true love for bikes in my opinion. I have a r1200gsa. A lovely bike but would like to get a vmac 1200 lol. What would be the best bike to work on? I concerned on the modern electrics with the bmw but also concerned on the parts availability for the vmax. Helppp!
Is there a process like you preformed on the front brakes to check out the abs module.
Hello! Like your caliper video, thx! (Newbee question) sometime you use bel ray greace, sometime cupper greace… what the rule of thumps to decide which one to use in différents situations?
Same for me after few years of watching shit servicing in garages and dealerships I decided to do everything my self. Befor I did on my V strom 1000( bike was sold with 111000km on the clock with few small problems which I have solved my self) my klr 650 has 45 000 km off road no problems and my gsa 1200 2012 with 65000km . Now I'm doing big services on my gsa and I found few striped bolds, broken parts all done by professional mechanics in professional garages. Sad because it should not be like that. Thank you for your content it's really good and you are such a nice man ( are you Scottish? )
Hi Michal, your story about dealer maintenance is what I have seen soo many times. Your choice to do your own maintenance could be the reason that your Vstrom went up to 111000 km. The best thing about doing your own maintenance is that YOU can choose your own parts, AND your own oil. When I bought my GS (allways BMW dealer maintained) the first thing I did was doing a big maintenance.. and gues what..? I was terrible.
The airfilter was never ever renewed, allthough it showed up on the bills, that the previeus owner had.. The 'inner' 2 sparkplugs.. NOT renewed.. ect ect..
Anyway thank you for your kind words, and I am from the Netherlands. Greets and drive save.
Hi thanks for your videos I have cleaned and flushed the brake fluid for my front callipers using your dish soap and toothbrush method and am going to do the rear calliper next and replace my final drive oil and grease the splines. One question though my bike is a 2010 r1200gs Adventure and I know the bike has linked brakes so the rear calliper is controlled by the front lever as well. Is there any benefit to bleeding some of the fluid from the rear calliper using the front lever, maybe to flush old fluid from the pipe that links the two systems?
Thank you for this video - do you lubricate the piston before pushing it back in? I have a 2015 GS1200, the rear brake is always grinding on the disc (while riding in on 2nd gear I kill the engine and I can hear the back wheel disc rubbing against the brake pad), so I need to rebuild the rear caliper but I don't know if I should be lubricating the pistons or just clean and push back in?
Zoals ik al eerder zei ' jij ben gewoon de beste' ik heb al veel video's bekeken maar nog niets aan mijn motoren gedaan. Vespa gts 300 en BMW r1200rt. Je hebt me geïnspireerd om zelf het onderhoud te gaan doen, want "it is easy" als ik je zo hoor en bezig zie. Ik heb al volop geïnvesteerd in gereedschap. Nu heb ik nog wel wat drempelvrees, want ben altijd tegelzetter van beroep geweest en ken dus niets van mechaniek. Is het mogelijk als ik met vragen kom te zitten om jou privé om advies te vragen via messenger of zo. Bedankt voor de video's alvast en blijf ze maken. Grtn Eddy
Hoi Eddy je mag mij altijd emailen, met vragen die je hebt. 😉👍🏻👊🏻
May I ask what fluid you are using to clean the parts of the callipers with?
Hello Tom
I’m considering buying a 2011 R1200GS with ESA and 12k miles full service history.
What things should I look out for before buying.
Many thanks
Brian
What fluid are you using to clean the brake caliper with please?
Nondejuh, look realy brand new 😂... Ik heb al een hoop geleerd van je . Net een R1200Gs aangeschaft maar ik weet nu al er moet heel veel onderhoud plaats gaan vinden.
Dan kun je oo mijn kanaal al een heleboel info vinden 😉👊🏻👍🏻
What solution are you using to clean the grommets?
Hi Tom, what did you use in your tub of liquid to clean the brakes? Brake Fluid or parts cleaner? Keep up the good work mate.
Good morning friend, I ended up cutting this lock pin from the pads, not knowing what I was doing, and I don't find this pin lock anywhere here in Brazil and not even through the shopping apps. any tips to help me please ???
Great job
Thank you 👍🏻👊🏻
Your swingarm looks so shiny,did you maybe have it repainted?
Hi, first of all thank you for all the videos.
I am having issues with a gs1200 2009, when i try to use rear brake sometimes it works but sometimes when i am pressing rear brake and do a down shift at same time i feel kinda a kick in rear brake and it stops working it kinda feels like is being pushed backwards. It's not always i down shift but most of times is when i down shift.
What you think it's failing here?
No idea sorry
may I ask which country are you from?
Hello.
I have been following your videos and I decide to go for a change of brake pads ( rear break).
Everything went well but at the point of remove the piece that ataches the caliper to the frame the thing doesn't come out even hamering it... any ideia on this that can help? Thanks.
Solved. Thks
Hi, i enjoy your videos so much. thank you for sharing with us ! I have a question about cleanig the caliper. You pushed the brake lever for coming out the zylinders to clean them. should i be carefull here ? could the zylinder jump out the caliper, or did they stop before ?
Way before !! Pump them out just a few mm 👍😉. So you can see where the dirt ends.
@@TheOldMechanic thank you !
Hello old mechanic, I have to say that you are doing an excellent job and I devoured all your BMW videos. You should go on TV with your charismatic way. I have a question: in one of your videos you use a ratchet wrench that has a knob on the bottom handle that can be used to move the nut to completely unscrew a screw. Could you please name the make of this and also how this tool is called? Thank you very much!
Hi Terry thank you for you friendly comment. You can find that ratchet overhere: amzn.to/3I8CrzY
@@TheOldMechanic Tank you very much Old Mechanic, I just ordered this tool.
hi Terry its such a great ratchet I use it very often,😉👍🏻
@@TheOldMechanic I'm looking forward to the tool, I'll get it on Thursday👍😅
Ik volg dit allemaal alleen die nieuw blokken passen niet , dan blokeerd hij gewoon.
Dus heb de originele maar weer in zitten. Hoe zou ik dit kunnen oplossen heb dezelfde blokken als het filmpje en mijn bmw komt uit 2010
Hee dat is wel heel vreemd.. als je exact dezelfde remblokken als ik heb moet het gewoon passen.
Por favor en español ...idioma 😢
Mir hätten 2 Minuten ausgereicht.
Da hatte wohl jemand Langeweile.
Then my channel is not for you 😂👍🏻
