Track Yamaha R6 Full Rebuild + First Start | Project YZF R6
As I mention in the video, I recently bought a new bike and I only have room for two in the garage, so one had to go. Therefore, I (reluctantly) had to get rid of my 2004 Yamaha R6 that I had setup for the track. In order to ensure it was in good condition for its next owner, I did a full service/rebuild and filmed the whole process to share the experience.
The bike had been serviced 2 months ago, I changed the clutch, oil + filter, spark plugs and cleaned the air filter. On this rebuild I focused on everything else: fork rebuild, new gaskets, valve clearance check and oil + filter again (I change it after every track day). The whole process took a couple of weeks spread across August, and...

Suzuki DR650 | Full Rebuild Project | Time-lapse + First Start
Просмотров 42 тыс.3 года назад
I was looking for a "Covid project", so I bought this 1992 Suzuki DR650R on the 25th of October. Since I plan on using it, I haven't focused on aesthetics; I just wanted to get it in fully working order. The only reason I had the frame painted was to avoid any rust issues down the line. The whole project took around 10 days spread over a month.

    Maybe I missed but have you did something with front fork?

      @manuelalarcon4352 8 месяцев назад

      The front fork seals & oil were just replaced by the previous owner, so I skipped them. They were the only thing that worked fine on that bike when I bought it 😅

    Super cool time-lapse! Just got a 1993 dr650. Gotta think "kick through the bottom" and you'll nail it every time. Promptly broke my manual decompression lever after purchasing and won't get the part for another month to Alaska 😂 Had to get real comfy kicking over the beast. Hope this video goes big for you! Very nice job!

      Buenas, fueron en torno a €1,300 (piezas, consumibles, areneado del chasis, pintura al horno y el rectificado del cilindro). Tardé un mes trabajando en ella por las tardes al salir de trabajar y los fines de semana.

    This is the first time I've seen 2 spark plugs in a one cylinder engine. What is this about?

    • @manuelalarcon4352
      @manuelalarcon4352 3 года назад

      I have always thought that on large cc single-cylinder engines, the piston is so wide that it needs both spark plugs to ignite the fuel evenly, and therefore have a better burn. But I may be completely wrong!

    Do you know if the plastics for newer dr650 fit on this one's pre 95' ? Mine is 1991

    • @manuelalarcon4352
      @manuelalarcon4352 3 года назад

      I'm afraid I don't know, but my guess is that it depends on the model; there were several variations of the DR650 (R, S, RSE...) but they didn't change a lot from one year to another. You will probably be able to find something that fits your 91 even if it is from a different year. Good luck!

      Thank you! These bikes are eternal! As long as you can find spares for it in your country, I would definitely recommend going for it. Even if you don't have much experience on the mechanic side, they are simple to work on and perfect to learn with.
