Preparing the Bike
Preparing the bike for a long trip. Due to a terrible weather the past two years he has hardly been on the road. The tent has not been pitched since Steigen in 2021.
The video was filmed in spring 2022 and 2023.
I have fitted a Scottoiler, new chain and sprockets, Akrapovic cans. I have replaced cheap and flimsy levers with TÜV approved ones from LSL, fitted new carbon fenders ... front and rear, new throttle cable, replaced brake pads, brake fluid, tires, fluids and filters.
And I have checked bolts and nuts.
Should be ready for the summer of 2023!

My 1978 Yamaha XT500
Просмотров 27 тыс.Год назад
Every time an XT500 has appeared for sale, I have been too late to buy it. When this one appeared in the middle of winter, I bought it without looking at it. Seems to be a pristine 1978 Yamaha XT500 with matching numbers. I am very happy with the bike! I've replaced a bunch of parts, mostly bolts and nuts and done a lot of electrical work, but there's still a lot left on my wishlist. Would like...

This is a repost due to sudden issues with one of the songs. After that I have chosen to not use copyrighted music anymore, regardless of RUclips agreements with the different record Companies.

First day of an 8 day trip. This first day is just a transport leg where the goal is to get through the weather and as far north as possible … as fast as possible. But there were some short photo stops anyway. And there was a lot of waiting due to an accident in Namsskogan. I ended up at Krokstrand Camping, But I did not know that when the trip started. #tindevegen #sognefjellet #Krokstrand #mo...

How do you get the base to separate? The centre section comes out easily, but the outside section I can't get separated from the top. Mine has three screws that yours doesn't. I've removed these, and I start spudgering around by the power cable channel like you do but it just won't release.
You just have to try to pry it up, work with it, use a flat screwdriver. It’s sitting pretty tight, but you still need to be careful.
Brilliant, thanks: I got it. It was just stubborn and needed a bit more force. I was just being too gentle with it. Managed to get it off without damaging it as well. In my case the transformer was fine but the temperature control had stopped working reliably: fixed with some contact cleaner on the variable resistor. Thanks for the video, and the reply - really helpful.
you should fit an "xstart" on your pretty xt ! herve from France
Hi, thank you! No that starter is very bulky and ugly. It is very easy to start my bike ☺
Good memories my friends... bought my first moto XT500 in 1976... it had the exhaust running under the bike. Time sure flies.... ride safe.
I really love this motocikl...👍👍👍👌
Bravo👋 good job! best video on this issue!
🇦🇺😎👍🏁
YOU ARE WONDERFULL. So it´s a very helpfull REPAIRGUIDE that you made. NO long Talking. YOU HAVE JUST SHOWN THE IMPORTANT THINGS. TOP 💛👍👍👍👏
Had the same issue like you with my 2022 ninja 650, fortunately it went away without changing anything
Super moto
1983, I had one and the noise it made was music to my ears!
Fantastisk MC. Har selv en XT250 årg 1983. Den blev total renoveret for 7år siden og er dømt til at blive i værkstedet i et stykke tid endnu. 👍🇩🇰
i had one of these and i remeber it had gold coloured spokes and wheels and it was black with gold detailing.
TOPPERS komunene du kjører i bør betale deg for visnings-rett på deres hjemmesider fantastisk reklame Super inspirasjon til hvor jeg vil kjøre. Takk.
Thank you. Fantastic natur and marveles drone fotage. A beutiful trip.
Great video. Looking forward to you next series and how the sound system works out.
What did the bike cost you to buy in the beginning?
55 000 Nkr, about 5000 EUR
nice content but, I was analyzing your RUclips channel. your you tube SEO score is zero. It should be increased. and subscribers ,views , like, comments is very low according to your channel age. This is why your you tube growth is very low and your channel setup is also having many problems. If, you can solve this problems your channel will grow and be famous very quickly.
Hello Thanks for the comment 😊😊I don't have the slightest idea about SEO scores and RUclips settings. This channel is actually just a place for me to store my holiday memories. Not once will you find me nagging for subscribes or likes. If this channel is to grow big I have to film myself more than what the films are really about! But I refuse to pretend that coffee satisfies me sexually in order to get viewers. My channel also has very few movies compared to the channel's age. I spend up to a week editing one film if a 360 camera is involved, so the channel is way down on my priority list because I don't have the time. nor was it ever intended for the channel to be public. Since it went public though, I've made a few DIYs. I am happy (and surprised) for the viewers I have as they are more interested in the channel's content than in me. Thanks again 👍
@@ConnieTh Thanks for reply, If, you want i can help to you.
@@TourBD-53 No thanks, the channel is big enough as it is
@@ConnieTh thanks for again response bu, your channel nice
👏👏👏👏✊
I bought an XT 500 in 1978 and drove it from Cologne, Germany 🇩🇪 to Kathmandu, Nepal 🇳🇵. A total of 17,500 km, without any problems. My real goal was to celebrate 🎉 Christmas on the beach in Goa, which I did. In total, I spent 4 years traveling in Asia and Southeast Asia. And I found Jesus. Hallelujah. John 3:16
An extremely impressive trip you had. It would have been very entertaining on youtube! I myself have only fantasized about driving it to the North Cape ... I hope it stays with the imagination.
Hey Connie , Very nice video with very nice music . stay safe and have fun ridding .
Du er tilbake 😃👍
Welcome back Connie 🙏 Absolutely love the video. I wish i was as through in my preparations for a long journey. It's a pleasure to watch. Keep up the great work and look forward to seeing your upcoming adventures 😊
I've watched this video a few times already, it calms my mind like nothing else. Thank you for making your videos all about the bike and the trip.
Thank you very much for the motivating comment 👍😃😍
Awesome preparation video! Also, I'm excited to see your new traveling videos.
Your DIY attitude has got you one subscriber! All the best, Connie!
Thank you very much! 👍👍 All the best!
The new pipes look better.
😅 Thank you. Yes they do, but not 18K better 👍
WELCOME back Connie!! Great video on bringing the bike up to scratch again. Where are you planning a trip to?
Thank you! The destination is a secret for the time being. When I prepared my bike I did not know. I always ride where the sun is
Dear Connie! Your videos inspired me last year to take a 3 week roadtrip with my FZ6 from Budapest to Molde in Norway and back (all together around 7000km). It was a really good (and exhausting) journey! :D
That's just perfect! Really glad to hear that 😍😍 Hope you had an adventure, thats a really long trip! 👏💪
Good to have you back!
1000 Takk 😃👍
Yeah!!! Welcome back Connie, bad weather yes but not as bad as waiting for the next Roadtrip Connie video. The new seat looks mint, good weight saving on the silencers and they sound great. You should be able to pack a few more beers now for your test trip to Botnen. Cheers Connie.
Thanks a lot 👍 I'm only 6 months late with the movies 😂now I have to finish them. But first there will be a period of work 😃
stunning landscapes. :)
What kind of sprocket is that? It's definitely not OEM as the color and hole pattern are different. And where did you get the colored sprocket nuts?
The sprockets, front and rear, are from JT Sprockets. High quality! I am very sure they are better than OEM! The sprockets and chain is a kit put together by my dealer. The nuts are quite costly aluminium racing nuts. Each nut has a part number stamped. Bought them from a UK dealer, cant remember where. Very happy with them. 👍
I guess l had no idea about what l was really getting when l found my first XT500, 1980 model. Bike was in rough shape, having spent 5 years in a goat pen in west Texas. All l had to do was fix some mouse wire damage and CLEAN the carb and tank. After 12-15 kicks it was running, gotta love electronic ignition. When l found my second XT it had been sitting in the open desert in west Texas for 12+ years. This 1978 model is actually in pretty good shape. Just about all original with a little sun damage to the paint, although the seat cover was shot. Not as easy to get running as the first one but now runs well with a new Mikuni carb. I have since sold the first bike and am keeping the second. Named it PLATA, spanish for silver, Crystal Silver paint. Good job on all that you have done to that bike. Thanks for sharing dear.
Hi Connie, takk for uploading this interesting video. Good work at your bike. I ride the 4E5-Type from 1981. And Kedo is a gold mine for all kinds of XT-parts.
Good job! I enjoy my 1U6 '83 since I bought it in 1984. Will keep it till the end of my days. Enjoy and get used to the bicycle brakes😂
Nice ride man. Well done! I owe a 1U6 from 1980.
Thank you very much 😊 I am a woman though 👍
@@ConnieTh oh I'm really sorry that I didn't realize that!
My XT itime was exactly 40 years ago. This vid was a porno for me, i came 3 times. Now laying in bed for 24/7 since 2015 after a tumor in my back from radiation (German Navy) Would give my legs for 1 year back in 1983. Thx for the video !
Very sad to hear about your situation, I really hope you will recover! ❤
@@ConnieTh THX Sis ... no hope. Doctors called even to the USA ... They fear that they destroy the rest of the nerves. Enjoy every single ride Madam ! ❤
@@ConnieTh PS: I rewatched the video now and i think you should mount the SECOND spring for the chain in the motor. The ticking noise comes from the chain, i had one of the 2 springs broken. The tic tic tic tic tic tic drove me crazy these days.... lol Edit : Forget the porno thing, did not know youre a girl. lol Hugs !
@@TomKappeln I don't hear any ticking beyond normal. The only sound that is annoying is the sound of the crap drive chain. The engine runs very smoothly. The sex comment just gave me a good laugh😂
@@ConnieTh : You are like my ex GF in the 90s ! She also drove a XT ! You are a damn pearl in this crazy world ! She died last year, dont know what from, saw it only online. I sold all i had in Germany and have a small ranch now in Poland. You know what ... im crazy ... i will buy the next XT i can find over here, ( a black and white) and will place her in my room ! You will see the video next year ! I swear ! BIG HUG ! 😘❤
i will absolutly try this :)
Can you ship it over to Australia for me they are a rare bike over here.I had a Yamaha DT360 sold it 1980 always needed a XT500 so i will keep crying.
XT500 is not very common here either. The shipping costs would probably be higher than the value of the bike 😂😂
still get tears in my eyes when i see it :) thanks for restoring and sharing
Thank you very much! I will take good care of the bike.
I reckon you should've ridden the bike after all the work had been done, not earlier on.. Otherwise well done massive job and much appreciated for working on my very first bike, only my one had the chrome sides and black tank on top, which came with golden rims, she was beautiful, it was my first love, I loved it to bits
Thank you! 😊 I will use this bike a lot and there is still a lot I want to do with it. Riding the XT500 is balm for the soul! I have decided to keep it original. But first I have to finish the films from the summer trip in between work and others that keep popping up. Thanks again 👍
24:22 is where i go fishing when im at Brekkvasselv camping 😊❤
Fantastiske bilder, og enda mere fantastisk redigert!
Absolutely fantastic to see a lady doing her own bike service ...infact brilliant 👏 👏👏
Thank you! 😀 Working on my own motorcycle is therapy and just as much fun as riding it.
What year is your bike maam?
It's a 2017
@@ConnieTh Thanks 👍 ride safe!
Simply amazing, the XT500 is the best motorcycle in the world!! Cheers!
vilken skönhet :-) ( what a beauty )
tank sticker is rather post '79 : it's '80 XT MDL with alu tank and deported front wheel axis
My 1976 XT500 enjoyed this video.
Been done this to my 2017 versys 1000 and its worked like charm. As long as the O² sensor are 12V, same thread and same cable it will worked, just needed to swap the O² sensor socket.
Perfect! Mine still works fine after the fix
