Thanks!
This week was about painting. I painted the cylinders and starter engine. Unfortunately the paint for the starter engine wasn't what I was looking for...
For the in depth video of the XV 750 starter engine rebuilt I will make a seperate video. I know a lot of people look for specific info on this topic. So hang tight for that!

Looks like im using VHT on my old cr125 dirt bike. That cylinder came out amazing
Cylinders are looking great! I like the matte look of the valve covers way more than the polished look btw so good call on that one.
I really like your tool shop setup. Also great video, helped with my question of painting air cooled engines.
Looks great man
You need to invest in a manual impact screwdriver. Works wonders. Great video and skills!
These are JIS screws that's why they won't come out. Not phillips.
Tnks 🙏🙏
Thanks for this video! 👍🏼
about to do the same with my XV. nice!
I like the rotating table.
It's actually made to put on a table in the morning for spreads and toppings... 😅
You're English is better than mine, and I'm English but I will correct you on one thing which is more of a translation issue, it's "Starter Motor" not "Engine"... We tend to call Electric Motors, motors and diesel /petrol engine an engine. Some people from down south (London area) might call a car a "Motor" too which is confusing. Love the videos and keep them coming, it's worth all the time you put in.
Stephen Auty You are right. Thanks!
Buen video, gracias
I always use the small chisel and large hammer method where the screw or bolt won't undo by the normal method...providing u have access
Hele verzameling originele xv wielen in de achtertuin haha. Mooie video weer, gaat weer een in principe splinternieuwe motor worden op de manier waarop je te werk gaat.
OpaSann0 Haha ja 😂. "Wie maakt me los? Drie voor een tientjeee!"
Hi Chiefpep. The paint job looks amazing. Any chance of posting pics showing how these pieces look a few years after painting?
I don't have the bikes anymore... Sorry.
@@chiefpepdesign That's a shame. Oh well. Thanks for the reply.
Hi, its a great video, I love your channel! Please, write down which colors brand you used and if you can recommend it!
I Use VHT paint. I know It's an American brand so you can buy it probably everywere. I always order here: www.mercuriustools.nl/gereedschap/product-categorie/hittebestendige-verf-vht/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwm9vPBRCQARIsABAIQYd97-2X-mUmQq_12mVdYYVM2dencjVuj_bvxcVcCwM-dLtUDHrEOIwaAgSUEALw_wcB And YES I really can recommend it!
Hey man, congrats!, you did a great job. I have seen your videos to have ideas for my oun virago. I been check a lot of videos but never find how did you paint the grey part of the engine. Which tipe of paint did you use? what brand? what color code?, etc. thak you so much for you work and advises.
It's no paint. It's wetblasted (sandblasted but a special way). Also called 'Vapor blasting'.
@@chiefpepdesign ok, I understend. Then I will try make that like you. Thank you so much again!
@@betoobox if you have Facebook you find a good picture overview of that.
great video, what treatment did you use to get the heads so clean?
Vapor blasting... Very special technique
Matte for stethical line, and about black in just cylinder part, is a good solution if you are looking for exhaust heat from this area, but for style, in my opinion, is better all the upper part of engine in black, including covers in black.
You don't like brushed edges stile..??'
Best wishes and regards from Copiapó, Atacama Desert, Chile.
PipoZaro Thanks for you comment. I've done matt black with my previous project (the scrambler). Also with the blanc coolingribs. I like it like this. Would be strange to also make the cylinder heads black...
safer to degrease prior to sanding .. so you dont rub the grease down into the sanding marks .. might not be a MUST .. but better safe then sry in my book :)
Hello Chiefpep, did you have to remove the old paint of the engine or you painted over the old paint? if you did removed it, how did you do it? because i don't have access to blast machines.
There was no paint on it. I wetblasted it (not myself, I outsourced it). I have specific video's in that topic.
If the parts are susceptable to rust...I remove all the rust then immediately spray with Red Oxide before any other paint
My wife has very strict standards as to what I can drag out of the garage, and stick in the oven. This may require some timing on my part...
LOL! Same
hey where is it possible to buy the 2 long screvs for the starter mine is a xv 750 19
95 2 gen
Sorry no... I don't have a dealership or anything. Just measure them and order them online.
Did I you use high temp paint
Offcourse. I am explaining that in the video. That's why I put it in the oven.
how can to remove and clean cooling fins before painting
Just take them off and clean them very well. With thinner, degreaser and then with sanding paper...
how to remove paint and clean cooling fins before painting
I explain that detailed here: th-cam.com/video/rF8MZPCCRec/w-d-xo.html
So does the cookies you cooked afterwards taste like primer?
😂😂😂😂
Good video..👍
Thanks for video... can I ask what paint you used?
VHT paint
what sized bolts are you using?
Josh Nededog A lot of different sizes... Obviously. I don't know if I get your question.
My apologies, i have a 1981 Virago 750 , and i was just referring to the 2 bolts on the Starter , and the Bolts used on the Alternator Cover. I Appreciate the responce.
Aha. Well, the bolts in the starter engine are exactly the same as the original only not Philips head but Allan heads. These are m6x120mm. The rest is a combination, depending where they go. Combination of M6x22, M6x14, M6x30, M6x40 various sorts. You just measure the originals. A lot of people ask me this question and therefore I give really detailed info in mijn questions and answer video about how to source these bolts. Watch it here: th-cam.com/video/i548Yz8FeCs/w-d-xo.htmlm38s
Chiefpep Thank you very much! I Appreciate the help!!!!!!
Hi. Could you post the links for the paint please. Thanks.
Best is to Google: VHT Paint
Thank you for the fast reply.
Do you not know the exact paint you used. I want my cylinder head to look like that paint. Not a mat couler
@@sam-lz2kq Matt black
Congrats on the efforts and results, but have you asked yourself how will any additional layer of paint/type of paint affect the heat dissipation that is of greatest importance on an air cooled engine during its operation? I also like the black cylinders on these bikes, but have cooling issued during summertime and that concern me most. If I would to spray mine black I would use not normal paint, but something like this and pray it is not only marketing but actually will help engine to run cooler: www.cerakotehightemp.com/finishes/P-202Q/arctic-black-oven-cure/
+1 on the non polished alu parts, the matte looks way better and will save you ton of work and following need of attention.
Ivo Giev Thanks for your comment and concerns! VHT Engine enamel is the most used for engines. Specially designed for this. All will be good!
Hi, maybe you didn't understand me correctly or I didn't express myself clearly. I was not concerned about paint peeling off at some point of its life, I am concerned how this paint will affect the cooling of the air cooled engine. The link I sent was for a paint that improves heat transfer, the VHT obviously is opposite since it is normal heat resistant paint therefor worsening the heat transfer. Please correct me if I am wrong and Happy New Year :)
Why not a different color like orange or other color on the cylinder block?
Marlhon Joseph Lim Engines should be their original color and otherwise matt black in my opinion... I never use colors on frame or engine. Guess it's very personal though.
