@@KoDenzell yeah man, so far with all the stuff I use my boots are still soft, supple and holding up well:), I will have to add hair conditioner as another option for future use. Thanks for stopping in brother.

@@BraulioMolaguero if I remember correctly most wobbles starts around 50-70 and I believe it starts to go away but than I'm not a mechanic. Good luck with it and hopefully you get it sorted out

@@zukins5003 Sorry but I should have been clearer about what is happening....the motorcycle vibrates at almost all speeds but not laterally and the dangerous wobble begins around that speed. At around 90 miles per hour it intensifies and the movement is lateral.

It's the original seat with trimmed foam and If I remember correctly also modified bottom of it so it sits flushed to the frame..

Yes it's unfortunately been in the shop for wiring since this post;( when I get it back I will take your suggestions on the exhaust, totally makes sense but I never thought about it. Thanks brother for commenting the great tip 💯 🔥

@@FightFilms it's just the length of the shocks that makes it looks high but as for travel and stiffness it will depend on what the shock's specifications are. So far this is just a mock up brother and I will keep what you said in mind. Thanks again for stopping in to check it out and commenting, I appreciate the support!!

Word. You can always affect the geometry or soften or harden the spring rate by moving those top shock stud mounts fore or aft, up or down. Or the bottom ones, or both, if possible, even extending the swingarm. I moved my top ones 2 inches to the front and that made a huge difference. I look forward to the update, anyway.

Yo brother I'm totally new to these things so I'm learning as I go and thanks for the words of encouragement 🙏

I didn't but my tank is lifted (tilted) so that might be the reason. I have heard of some not having to do so, either way I think it shouldn't be too bad. Good luck and thanks for stopping in.

Yeah man, this is another easy one, check it out..ruclips.net/video/b5r_oEkFttA/видео.htmlsi=ZtgI53JfR9YNiCKl

Come to think about it I will have to agree on the music attempt but not sure about best bike in the world..

@@zukins5003 Well, it's just my opinion (which is always the correct one 🙂). I rode a 2009 model since 2009 till 2020 (some 70k km), early last year I bought a 2003 model, but I gave it to my GF (when I bought a C90T a few months later). Probably by next week I'm going to check out another one in mint condition. Yeah, I truly adore this particular bike model that much.

That's awesome man, I love mines too cause if I didn't it would have been long gone. You love yours more than me liking mines if you're thinking of picking up another one haha I don't blame..I'm just broke;) keep it up!!

Glad you are finding the channel useful brother.

Just reving you , what ever makes you feel good, and again good looking bike, l got a 2007 Boulevard, c50 just a great bike, keep riding.

@@terrykemble-yi2nc yeah man right on, keep her maintain and she should be good to you. Thanks for stopping in brother.

Typically once it gets to that point it's most likely damage. Those bearings have a lot of load on them and if not properly maintain can have wear on them but with that said yes you can try to tighten them up little by little and see if it helps. Good luck and lmk if it fixed it.

@zukins5003 hey brother thanks for getting back! I tried tightening up the headset. It wasn't tight, but also didn't fix the problem. I ordered a motorcycle jack so I can take the forks off and check the bearings and fork seals. I appreciate you

@toanmaxdark7 absolutely no problem. However I recommend you have all the parts and tools necessary to get the job done. And be ready just in case you can't get it done be prepared to have a backup plan in terms of bike use.

Yes sometime we just miss that one that one simple hole that will do the trick. Good luck and lmk if it fixes it..and one more that have gotten me a few times on my other bikes is fuel cap vent.

@@zukins5003 yes I remember watching my friends quad run for a while then cut out. He would check he had fuel and it would start right up. Then cut out again a few mins later. We eventually figured out it was the aftermarket gas cap that was covering the vent hole 😂

Yes it's cost 400k Thai baht which is around 11-12k $. It looks to be made in Japan and just wheels assembly put on to avoid any more duty tax is my guess. And yes it seems to be a 300% tax for imported goods.

Wow...that's a crazy amount of money. My bikes are made in Japan too and then shipped to the dealers in the states @@zukins5003

I think I know what you're talking about but I never heard of the filtration technique, I bet it does a good job. Now I just add carburetor cleaning as part of a regular maintenance. Thanks for the great tip

Throw a little rare earth magnet in there, too

@@FightFilms now that is another great thinking! I will need to try that:)

No worries. Looks mean.

Awesome thanks for dropping in brother !!

I'm in Thailand sir

Once you get a good grip just turn the direction you want and it should stay put while you get the pipe wrench readjusted to complete the turn(like in video) and it'll snap in place. Good luck

Interesting, glad yours is fix. I will have to take a look into that when I get chance. Thank you

Only springer seat for rear suspension, let's see how my back holds up..😅

I'm glad I got it all sorted out. Good luck

Very good question. With this particular set up it was fine and didn't notice much difference from stock but just a tad, even that might just be in my head. Sorry I'm no help in answering both your questions directly but I will say that when I did another iteration with a much open free flowing set up top end did for sure suffer in terms of top speed. Noticed I couldn't hit what I used to be able with prior set up. Good luck brother and please do keep us here posted with your set up:))

Thank you and luckily I crawl..I meant cruise around curves. It's definitely not recommend for someone who enjoys carving corners and more for cruising or putting around:)

In the video I was NGK DR8ea but currently have moved to Denso X24 ESU non resistor for a hotter spark. Hope that helps.

If you can't get to it from the original position of the fuel tank then just loosen one bolt that's holding the rear fuel tank and lift a little till you have enough room. But if I remember correctly you don't have to but do make sure you have the correct length extension and/or a universal joint can come in handy. Lastly you will need a thin wall socket for the plugs. Good luck 👍

Wow, not sure why I didn't get this notification;(. I didn't have to cut or do anything with my kickstand but parked at even the slightest incline to the right you will have a chance of tipping over if someone bumps into it. Good luck brother and lmk what you decide to do:)

How does the bike lean on it's stock side kickstand? Do you plan to cut and shorten the kickstand for a more lean angle? I lowered mine 2 inches and kept my kickstand stock and it stands up a little straighter, but I was told I should first order a used kickstand on Ebay or Amazon then score or mark a straight line on the back side for realignment when it's time to reweld. Cut off and remove about 1 1/2 to 2 inches of my kickstand and round out the two flat ends and reweld the foot back onto the leg. There are videos on RUclips showing how to shorten the kickstand. So if you lowered your bike 3 to 3 and half inches, It is recommended that the side kickstand should be cut, shortened and rewelded, in your bike's case possibly a minimum of 3 inches of shortening the kickstand and reweld the bottom foot back on. By shortening the kickstand, it will allow your bike to lean further back the original lean angle and avoid having the fear of your bike from tipping over to the right side. When you do decide to shorten your kickstand, can you make a video of your progress. Thank you.

Absolutely will that is if I cut but to be honest I actually like how it sits just a bit upright. I also recently added some welds on the bottom of my kickstand to get it more upright. I know it sounds weird but it might also be the grinding of my kickstand. Anyways I will make a video of my bike's stance and will show all the details, it might be be useful for someone thinking of lowering their bikes. Stay tuned..

Yes got it, when you cut your kick and mark it I personally think it's best to have a second person help hold the bike as you lean the bike over to the left and tack weld to make sure the feet of the bottom kickstand is flat and you have it leaning the way you want before welding. But I'm sure once you do start you'll find out what works best for you. Most importantly just make sure your welds are strong. Hang tight and I'll try to make the video tomorrow.. during my free time.

I watched your new kickstand video.

Ain't that the truth lol but really I've had bad luck with drying out pivoting points and electrical problems so now when she does get a bath I try to go easy on her;) haha

Yes it's located at Khao Pra Nakhon Kiri Historical Park in Petchaburi. 150 baht for adults and child is free

Yes Johnny you're correct, but also depends on how old is that shock (worn) and how is the bike loaded (preload). Don't forget to check tires and front forks, you might be surprised what worn front forks(oil) can do to the overall feel. Good luck brother and sorry for the late reply.

Glad you got it to fire on one kick brother. I'm definitely learning as I go and probably like yourself just fixing what's not feeling right. Btw I would love to own anything bigger than a 150 here in my neck of the woods especially your old school yz250.
