Thank you thank you thank you - excellent video.😎

Hi Mike yes still active and the bikes running really well 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ There’s not much oil in the clutch case so there’s definitely a leak coming in , there’s only two oil seals in there as far as I remember and sadly the only way to see is by taking it all off again 😡😡😡 Another thing to check would be the oil return to tank when it’s running to make sure it’s retuning nice and strong not dribbling!! If that makes sense 🤦‍♂️ let me know how you get on 👍

I hope you’re still active. That video helped me loads when changing my sprocket seal. Only problem was that it wasn’t the source of my oil leak. Pretty sure it is engine oil leaking out of the back of the primary chain case after trips of a couple of miles or more. It’s higher that the sprocket, and looks like it’s leaking from behind the clutch. Surely primary chain oil shouldn’t get that high? Any pointers would be very welcome - and thanks again for a wonderful video.

Good video, I enjoyed it. Hope you are well.

Thanks for sharing 😊

Good work

Shouldn't this be done with the cam-chain-tensioner in but not bolted down? It should keep the chain from bunching up on the crank sprocket and keep slack so you don't end up 1 link off? Also, which position do the lobes on the cam need to be in? with the lobes up, they would be applying pressure on the valve rockers which would mean that the valves are open/down when the cylinder is TDC? this may cause collision?

Instead of the bent bit of metal I use worn-out 1 plain and 1 friction plate bolted together with long bolts. The longer bolts assist in removing the tool. That centre nut needs some decent torque to tighten. With the bolted plates, there is no chance of the tool flinging out. I never had to use gasket compound on the sealing surfaces. Good quality gaskets lubricated with grease always sealed for me, and it also allows the covers to come off without breaking the gaskets and having to scrape the remains off the soft aluminium. marking the plates is a good idea if using existing, but marking the inner and outer drums doesn't matter, as when the clutch lever is pulled, one spins and the other is stationary, unless you have clutch drag. Tighten up the primary cover is best done your way. It is also worth checking the if the previous owner has over-tighten the screws. Rub a finger nail over the top of the crankcase holes with the thread in them. If slightly proud, it will be difficult to stop oil leaks. A touch of a counter-sink tool in a hand drill, not electric, just removes a little proud thread for the gasket to seal. Just don't go mad. 20 tooth is a bit big. The chain can leave gouges in the crankcase with a sprocket that size. Better to get a rear sprocket with less teeth. Thanks for the video. It shows how relatively easy it is to maintain these older British bikes.

What a shame for a machine like that to loose all of its enduring visual history

Mine has a 16" chopper rear wheel so i had to cram in a 21t sprocket, contoured it out and dremeled the cover and it just barely slides in. Didnt cause any additional leaks and now it cruises at 60mph 👍

Doubt it will be as usable off road with the bigger front sprocket.

Your not wrong Keith 🤣🤣🤣 Iv sorted it now

looks a lovely bike sounds really nice but i have to say that is the worst fitted front mudguard i have ever seen but a lovely bike all the same

just what i have looking for thank you

Lovely at start, lovlier still at end...but much prefer the original pipes. Great job giving this bike a second life. T100R owner.

You could eat your dinner off that engine, is that healthy?

Thanks for the compliment I loved the bike it was a sad day when I sold it but I didn’t want to be that guy who has a bike in the garage but never rides it and it just deteriorated into a pile of rust , someone else’s joy now as it should be

I had a 400/4 30 years ago and it was a great bike. Your cafe racer is fantastic.

Hi mate, quality video. I’m interested in making one. Don’t happen to have the measurements for the wood do you?

Hi Andrew I put the 20 tooth on really to give the engine an easier time as I ride it like my other bikes and not being precious and slow because it’s a 49 year old bike , It will sit at 55-60 mph quite happily and in normal traffic at 30 in 3rd ,Acceleration wise these have long gears anyway being only four speed gear box and I haven’t noticed any fall off really, Hope this helps ? Are you filming your build ? Put a link in 👍

T100boy how have you got on with that 20 tooth sprocket? At the moment I am halfway through an engine rebuild and am considering going up from the std 18 tooth on my C. Any impressions on how it rides would be much appreciated.

Ave you bent back the locking washer so the nut can turn ?

Very nice, but you skipped the part I need to see. How to remove the sprocket. I can't get it to budge after the high gear is knocked out.

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks 👍

Thanks Wayne,the bike is still going strong with no issues,

Excellent........!

Cheers for watching, I made the little tool Iv never seen it anywhere else

Please for Gods sake get rid of that blasted horn in the beginning and end.

Love love love that little tool idea!! Who came up with that?

Thanks very much ,we enjoyed building and riding them

Cool motorcycle

Sorry can you get the seal behind the sprocket out from this side?

Can you get the gearbox seal out from this side

Ah man that sucks ! We now have it running bang on but they are fiddly, we fitted VM carbs (best money we could have spent ) and pamco electronic ignition,do you have any videos of yours ?

Hi. Nice to find another build in the UK. Yours look great BTW. I have had pretty much all the 360 issues over my teardown and rebuild. I am now tearing down again - as based on your video I clearly have internal issues with my rebuilt clutch. There is way too much slack when adjusted off and no amount of tinkering is curing it.(I have just discoverd I hadnt tightened up my clutch basket and the rod was pushed through too far). Big sigh, large tea, choccy hobnobs and cracking on... cheers.

Thanks Chico Just as another bit of information for you ,when we got the bike on the road all was fine but one day we were stuck in traffic for a while and because the clutch was held in for that lone the cable stretched just a bit and the “THAT NOISE “ happened but we didn’t have a screwdriver or the spanner with us 😂😂😂😂😂 ,So now we never leave home without them 👍👍👏👏👏 If you want to see the finished bike we have an instergram page #astonnealemotorcycles Any other questionsjust drop us a line

I had to laugh....that 'noise' is where I put the wrench down for a while...it kept popping out of adjustment with that 'terrifying' noise..lol. I went by the owner's manual but it didn't give the expert instructions that you did turning the wheel in gear....I'm headed back to the garage with renewed determination! Thanks a lot, man.

Sure no problem The trolly was from amazon Storage case was from B&Q (17lts I think) 25lt drum you can pick up at a car accessory shop free if they have one round the back or from ebay The pump on/off switch and the controller were from ebay The pipe and connectors you'll be able to get from your window cleaning supplies or again ebay. I use 6mm pipe and ructes connections, As for the trolley I kept using it until a few months ago, I now have a van but the old trolley never let me down! Are you gonna make a video of yours?

How’s the trolley going mate gonna do a replica of this maybe at weekend .. don’t suppose you could let us know we’re you got each item from .. cheers

Yes once the roller are out the basket comes off

ok, but i didnt see how the 'hub' came off? it was just suddenly off! does it just tap off? i cant see a way to 'pull' on it...thanks

Thanks , The pipes are from a CL 360 and cut back ,there not that easy to find here in the UK

This is very helpful! Also, I love your exhaust what brand is it?

Thanks so much we have now built another one this time it’s a Honda CB 360 ! Check out the build on my channel

This style is so beautiful

Thank you! That was easy to do! Same method for my 72cb350

Thanks David,yeah I’ll brake out the camera 🎥 and start again 🙈🙈🙈 was there anything in particular?

Hey, great video, now if you make one for every other part of my Build!

Here you go mate www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7-8-Universal-Front-Master-Cylinder-Brake-Clutch-Levers-Sp-Street-Bike-B-D-UK-/232707782548

There just some that we found on EBay ! They came in different colours too. We’re hoping to make another video soon off the bike on the road, subscribe to keep up to date !
