Brilliant video. You make it so clear. Can't wait to start on mine. Thanks
Hello, my motorcycle does not charge. It is connected to a green wire. It is cut off from green to blue. Could you please tell me how to install it? ❤
At 3.53 you put what you call a blank on the floor and nothing is mentioned about it! Whats the crack with that as I have that blank sat between the last clutch and end plate when I took apart my clutch today
Does it work this way ??
What about the drive chain, what tension should it by?
There is no tensioner mechanism on the primary on a D1 .
Great videos btw. Please make and upload more bantam videos.
Thankyou sir
What a clown - Have things ready when making a video
Thanks your video is really helpful. I''ve just started riding my dad's old Bantam having not riden fir 34 years, Dad died a couple of years ago. The bike had been running well until recntly when , on a hot day it broken down three times in a short ride out. I checked the spark and there is one and fuel getting to the engine . I recently cleaned out the carb and took it for another ride when it started misfiring and stalled. On the seafront in Brighton I stripped the carb again an it started and run for a short period. then started to missfire and loose poer , When I pulled the clutch in and reved it it picked up again. I did wonder if there is muck in the fuel from the petroltank but I'm planning to replace the coil. Have you got any tips for replacing the coil when in the bike? Also, I dont have workshop space so will be doing the fix on the side of the road, how long should a fix take? Thanks again, I'm going to watch you other videos.
any dirt in the fuel from an old tank can block the carb very quickly . I have to clean mine all the time . replacing the coil isn’t a hard job . remember never to solder the coil ! just fold the wire in the loop . always use a copper. wire . good luck
What if you have no spark at the points…? 1956 D3 battery.
Great video
Brilliant video very helpful stay safe
Thanks Jamie . Lets hope that we can keep riding these little gems for as long as we can
@@classicsmallmotorcycles2732 let us certainly hope.so take care stay safe all the best to you all 👍
@@classicsmallmotorcycles2732 aa
Thankyou for taking the time to do three videos. They've been extremely helpful👍
My C15 is running rich I’m going to check this out. Thanks for sharing
Excellent, ive just picked up a bantem 175 which is appearing to have no spark so this video could be handy when I get round to it!

Will this work on Chinese dr 50cc
thanks for that great help
Is that right that a typical page in a book is the required 14 thou hence feeler gauge not needed ?
Feeler gauge is better mate . Sometimes when your on the road you'll find that a thin bit of card will do. Cigarette packet is the "Bantamites" favourite ! lol
Started work on my first ever bike restoration today (D1). This video was perfect for what I needed to know, thanks.
Ive watched a lot of your video's and find them very helpful. Could you help me with the removal of the clutch basket? Grateful for any help. Kelly xx
Where in the country are you Kelly ? Various Bantam clubs are really helpful .
I'm in Birmingham. Kelly xx
Will this work with any bikes? I have a KTM pro senior kick starters fucked but I wanna hear it run before I dump money into it
Hi Alex . I haven't worked on a KTM so I wouldn't know . Sorry mate
youre shit
Thx 4 this video it helped me out big time
Thanks mate . good luck with your machine .
Nice video, would you use a new old stock coil, or simply a pattern coil, I see you used a green pattern coil, which colour is best green, blue, also just a thought Villiers HT coil have to be soldered on the primary side, could get away with a little solder
Hi mate. The coils are susceptible to heat. I wouldn't solder them. Many "Bantamites" feel that the green coils last longer. Coils can be a bit hit and miss with these little bikes. Good luck .
@@classicsmallmotorcycles2732 Thank you for your reply, which company did you use to buy your H T coil, I bought a green coil recently but the result was a very weak spark, as soon as I changed to a N.O.S. coil (WIPAC) it seem to work maybe my coil was too cheap would appreciate any advice.
I don't see why you would have to check for TDC. You should be able to turn the engine until the point wiper arm is on the high lobe of the/a cam and set the points. I done 2, 4, 6, and 8 cyl. engines back in the day, magneto and battery systems, never once pulling plug(s) to check for TDC or any other timing marks. Turn the engine over until wiper arm is on any lobe and set the points--done.
Hi mate . Sometimes the cam woodruff key becomes worn or slightly bent. Checking TDC isn't a bad idea on a 70 year old machine .
I heard you say never to solder that HT lead wire on to the coil. That makes a very poor connection on the coil just stuck through like that. Surely there is a better way! Why wouldn't they put a spade type connection or do they not recommend a way to connect that wire securely? You would think that ring could be soldered or why haven't they put a pigtail if it is not safe to solder? Small screw and nut?
The heat from soldering can destroy the wiring in the coil making them useless.
Going to attempt this on my James comet 1958. Similar carb on 4f villiers Thanks
Good luck with that David. Let me know how you get on.
Great video, found this really useful :)
Thanks Steve .. More Videos are coming soon
My old Bantam had cork inserts in the clutch plate. I hit some gravel and came off my Bantam. When I picked the bike up the engine was still running but the clutch wouldn't work so I had to push it home. Next day I examined the clutch and all the cork inserts had fallen out of the clutch plates. You could buy the cork inserts at the dealers but once fitted they had to be ground down to the correct thickness. I loved my Bantam as it was my first bike at 16. Happy days!
Cant beat them mate. Mine never fails to make me smile !!
Nice bike, Good luck with it, Not a good idea checking spark on footrest with the bad fuel leak,
Great video!
Thanks Robert . Glad you liked it . Always good to keep your ride rolling .
Great video. I saw a lot of gas coming out at the end. I'm assuming your float was stuck.
Your right Peter the float was stuck . I changed the coil. The points and condenser worked perfectly. amazing as it had been left in a shed for 50 years.
Hi there , Ive found your vids invaluable to maintain my bantam. How many do you have out regarding the bantam ? I have the Haynes manual but i would like a more in depth Workshop manual.Is there one out there ? I have a totally re built Bantam but have a problem of the cable nipple slips off the clutch mechanism when i pull clutch lever fully. Ive tried every position of adjustment but it persists. Any ideas THanks again Elaine
Hi Elaine. The best way i have found relocating the clutch cable to the engine is to lay the bike on its side. Be an idea to drain the tank beforehand. If you shine a lead light in to the where the cable pulls the clutch mechanism you will see a forked lever. If you carefully slot the cable in you can adjust the clutch up (with the bolt on the bell on the side of the engine) and that tention should hold the cable in place. I might make a clutch cable video . I think that ive made 5 or 6 videos. Im glad that you like them. Sorry for late reply.
Hi Elaine . Check out our website page on the D1 www.classicsmallmotorcycles.com/bsa-bantam-d1.html any feed back is most welcome
The word "carburetor" doesn't occur in the title though, somehow? Thought it meant complete bike.
Well spotted Dave . Cheers. Has been corrected .
i enjoyed that cheers nice dog too
Thanks mate. I felt like branching in to comedy . Glad you liked it.
You should mark where your timing is before you remove the 3 retaining screws. Just to save some time after reassembly.
Thats a very good call Peter. I might re record some of my videos and add a bit more to them. Definitely have a timing reference.
This is a great series that you've done. They might be simple bikes, but it's nice to have a visual for maintenance.
Thanks Peter. Ive always learnt more quickly when i watch somebody else do something. Never got on with instruction manuals. RUclips is such a fantastic way to learn how to do so many things. My latest video is an attempt at comedy.
ah very useful video thankyou very much
Thanks mate. Looks like you have the passion for old machines too. Be a new video out soon. A spoof renovation show. Im branching out in to comedy ..ha..
+classic small motorcycles yeah i love it all, all things old. i look forward to that would be good to see rhe kighter side!:)
I have a cz 125 1988 would that be the same
I would think that a 1988 125 CZ would be similar to an MZ 125 TS The early bantams have a magneto ignition without a battery powered coil set up. I made a video about a 1987 MZ , hope it helps . ruclips.net/video/Pe0Lvf7Q5u8/видео.html Good to see people keeping these old birds running , good luck mate
Mother in laws sink mate .. Glad you like it !!
dear frd..how to get the new corrbuleter of d1 who show the video...? plz help me...
Hi there , you have to disconnect the fuel line , unscrew the top of the carb to release the piston and undo the the bolt holding the the carb to the manifold . If i get time i might make removal video . good luck mate.
good on ya mate! Tearing the engine down in the kitchen sink, hope she doesn't wake up!
thanks mate . If you run these machines with their original tanks the carbs clog up so easily . always a good idea to fit a fuel filter . more bantam videos coming soon !!
thank you soo much..give the important detail about this,bike thank you
+anand thakur thanks mate . hope it helps you
