Welcome to the Temple! Here at the JTMJ channel, we primarily focus on motorcycle repair/maintenance, and restoration to keep old bikes ALIVE and help people do it WITHOUT spending themselves blind in the process. From shop tips, to tool hacks, I share it ALL!
I am a 35+ year veteran of the motorcycle industry. My first paying job was pushing a broom in a Kawasaki/Suzuki dealership when i was 12, and I am factory certified in multiple brands, as well as a lot of "figuring out a better way" on my own!
I play no favorites with my opinions on products or brands. If its crap, I'll tell you straight up to spend your money elsewhere.
Bottom line is I'm here to educate, share my knowledge, help people gain an understanding of what needs to be done (and occasionally, what NOT to do. I am human, after all), and help others to become a better, safer, and more self-reliant motorcyclist by being more in tune with their machine.
Knowledge unshared is knowledge lost!

I have a couple bench top mills and lathe and I do electrical engineering hit me up.
Sounds like you have a bad rectifier somewhere, or maybe a regulator. There will most likely be a transformer that steps the 110v AC down. That will go into a rectifier to convert to 5v DC. There is also most likely a 5v regulator. Defective regulators can get noisy when they warm up. That will mess with logic curcuits.
China VFDs from Vevor are around $100 or just a bit more. Ive had fairly good luck from them. Just saying if you did want to try it. Just make it dust proof for longevity.
Hello from Portugal. Great video.
❤
From what i have read that brushless motor runs on DC current,not AC. I would check the voltage or amperage on each power leg going into the motor. I really dont know
Great show Brother
thanks man!!!....gimmie 1 sec and ill have that link for ya!!
here ya go man!!....check out that part of the video i did where im talking about how to calibrate these!! a.co/d/jcxnFOD
❤
✌🌝✌
Yeah pretty much everday. 😂 Apparently RUclips thinks I need help with my lovelife, somehow I was autosubscribed to a channel called "Dating After 60" where some 70 year old lady was talking about what guys want in a lady. But anyway since my background is engineering I may be equipped enough if you need any math or physics explanations.
Entertaining this will be, yes 😅
My funky day is just around the corner and I just need to survive Wed and Thurs and maybe all will work out. What are your thoughts on a hondamatic motorcycle and who sells a shop manual for a 1993 Kawasaki Voyager 1200 because why have one crisis when you can get several 😅. Working tonight but hopefully take a minute and check in. Be safe
Can't wait 😁 see y'all later
We all gotta have a little help from our friends
usually happens after a night of smokin
Great video!
It is pronounced inner Gee Ka
Great to see true tradesmen following through to a resolution
Woman hate it when us guys just collect something for a rainy day or just because we need it.. I brought a chainsaw the other day because I had 1 branch that needed cut off a tree I bet if I was married there would be no way I was allowed to buy it it would have been just borrow your mates one and cut it down.. happy wife = no new toys that are fun to use🤣
Team Jedi are doing well. You just need to sharpen your good bye.
Fantastic video Joe, great in depth investigation and cure . You're the man.... Great job Wife unit
dear sir, w0ndering if u cud help me in l0cating a wiring harness f0r a 1985 kawasaki en450-a1? any help wud b c000l b0ss. 🖖
s0rry t0 hear u g0t fired. ✌
You the man Joe!!! Keep up the awesomeness!!!
I was lucky enough to have been blessed withaazing parents unfortunately I lost my father when I was15. I am not coplaining my mother has been top notcheen helping me thoygh my recent stroke
im sorry for your loss at that time in your life....i was fortunate enough for my dad to be in my life till i was 39, and miss him dearly...even when i KNOW he would have called me on my bullshit!! we gotta take care of the moms....thats the "right" thing to do!
Did you say perverse or diverse?
well.....lolol!!!
A lot of good info wrapped up in this video. I learned a lot! Thank you!
Right on, glad you got something out of it!
Thank you Joe (and the Wife unit). Most of my work career was in inspection and QC. People don't realize how "just a little bit at the center extrapolates, the further you get from the center. The owner of the bike is lucky he didn't kill himself. I was just enjoying the way you explained the situation and the solution. From start to finish you showed how a lay person, with a minimum of tools can at least find the solution and take it to a professional to correct the problem rather than just take it to a shop and have to take out a mortgage on the house to get it back!!
Exactly this!!!... I try to present info in a "bare bones/work with what you have" format....I realize that most folks probably aren't going to have a indicator and holding fixture laying around, BUT..... knowing what you NEED, and how to get it on a minimal budget puts you 1 step ahead!! Glad you enjoyed the video sir, and thank you for contributing to the conversation!
This seems to be a pretty common issue with carbon fiber parts. Even carbon fiber bicycle frames that cost thousands will have poorly molded bearing mounts that cause premature failure.
Man, I'd never thought of that!!... TBH, this is the first time I've had to deal with anything like this on CF wheels(mounting tires, and doing swaps/installs with them has been the extent of me working with them up till this point).... considering the investment dollar wise, that's a spooky thought!
Great video Jedi, extreme props to the Wife / Director/ Editor.
Lol..... careful bub, she reads this, and her head is gonna start to swell🤣🤣 She does a damned good job on things, no doubt 😍
Good stuff. But you stated the brake caliper is fixed. Isnt the rotor now inboard by the amount you milled off?
It is....by .017" If I had to take a significant amount of material off, I would have gone a different route, but measuring how much leeway I had with caliper piston/brake pad travel, this was a non issue on this piece in particular.....if I'd had to take .045" or more off, that would have been a different story!!
@JoeTheMountainJedi great diagnosis and treatment.
🤘🤘🤘
🤘🤘🤘
Dang sahn you get you’re head caught in a corner shucker or whah
Thanks Joe, it pays to look at every detail.
70 degrees in southern Ontario today. Definitely going to "change the gas" in as many bikes as possible! I'm always happy to tune in. Keep on truckin!
go "scrub the oxide layer" off the brakes......keeps em from squealing!!
shout out to the wife unit .. video editing isn't easy for us non button pushing type fellers on the keyboard 👍
Yeah, she's a damn good one, and the queen of the button pushin'!!!
Just reminded me that my secondary shops a mess & I keep procrastinating on getting another toolbox. Another great vid from the jedi fam
thank you sir!!....and fyi..... if you're here, you're "family"...appreciate you hanging out with us man!!.... betcha my shop has more dustbunnies than yours!!
That’s why it’s called thread locker it belongs on the threads only. 😉😂🤣
PREACH!!!!.....i get stuff in all the time with no threadlocker(where there should be) and in other cases, glopped on with a damned paint roller!!
GREAT ONE! algorithm magic and all that good stuff. Ca Ching! i don't really ever think I will be able to own a bike like that because it would have to be free but this was a real eye opener, not that my eyes were closed. LOL also. always great to see a plan come together.
Joe...you da man, man...came from a Shadtree vdo with you and watchin you ever since. That was some mighty fine deduction of the problem right there !! Well vdoed n explained...much ❤from India 🙏🏼 All the blessings to David and Cindy for Forgotten Angels and for all that you do for the cause❤
Right on brother, glad you dig the stuff, and thanks for the kind words on Cindy and David!!
That was a super cool video, thanks Joe! You are making me want to get my mill set up and working. I will need to find a vfd for it.
i got VERY lucky when i found "the General" for the shop.....its a old-tech, round column Bridgeport that most folks turn their nose up at these days, because its a little on the puny/underpowered side, since its a 110v motor!!!( we don't have 3 phase, and didn't have the budget for a VFD!!)....it may be a little on the clapped out side, but he's got it where it counts!!!
Haha mine is a WW2 era US Machine Tool vertical mill that I picked up in a lot with a similar date Southbend lathe for super cheap. I just need to learn how to use them!
Great video. You won't see anything like this anywhere else on RUclips. Now I'm going to check the eBay special wheels before I put them on the super glide just to make sure someone hasn't buggered them up.
thanks brother!!....you can ALSO use this same setup to check for bearing end-play on the old style harley wheels with tapered wheel bearings!!
@@JoeTheMountainJedi I have done so. Have a spare axle and all the spacers to set it up in a vice and torque it down to check end play. :)
🖖Joe & Wife Unit
thanks for hanging out with us tonight man!!
RESPECT... LOVE BROTHER...
appreciate that man!!....see ya next trip!
Sorry you got fired but Mrs.Jedi is doing really great. Flea market jenga. I feel that. My shed shop is the same. I loved the video. real technical (my head hurt a little) but really fascinating. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
sorry bout the brain-pain, but this one definitely came under the heading of "non-typical"!! and yeah, shes a WAY better nerd than i am!!
And we still didn't get to see what the bike looks like .
yeah, that was a judgement call from me.....as unique as this bike is, i decided that i didn't want to show it fully in the vid to protect my customers privacy (he's a local guy), and i didn't want him to think i was putting him on blast.....google 2022 energicia Ego, and you'll find the rundown on these things!!
Hey there, Jedi! Greetings unto She Who Is Called WifeUnit! What microphone are you wearing, and how much do they cost, please?
these are the "ankerwork m650"s...heres you a link for em!!amzn.to/3NUEdIl honestly, i wish they were this price when i bought em, cause i paid just shy of 2 bills for mine!!!
50 minutes and not even 1 shot of the bike? Love your channel!
yeah....i kinda went back and forth on that, but its like i said above..... that was a judgement call from me.....as unique as this bike is, i decided that i didn't want to show it fully in the vid to protect my customers privacy (he's a local guy), and i didn't want him to think i was putting him on blast.....google 2022 energicia Ego, and you'll find the rundown on these things!!
❤
Thank God they don't make Carbon fiber submarines. NO, Wait. 🌊💥🤯😥
SAVAGE!!!!!LOLOL
Salut from BFE KY!!! Let me know if you need warped wheels. Thanks for the shout-out. #badJoke
hey brother, thanks for hanging out!!!....id like to go back up there sometimes to hang out with my Clarksville peeps!!
