I couldn't figure what over flow hose went where watching your video now I do and ont be so hard on your self we have all spell a little antifreeze play when changing our fluid and oil as well appreciate your video keep on coming 👍
I'm really looking forward to hearing it out on the road :) Plus carbed bikes do have a better sound in my opinion! :D Thanks Stephen, I was out filming the next one today :)
Checking in from CT USA 🇺🇸 I Have a '98 750cc SRAD this is a big help I will be changing both oil and coolant. I found you by watching the Sprocket and chain swap. 🤠💥💯🤙🏼 Great content
Loving the videos and content man! I guarantee every one watching is like me and has an srad gixxer but weren’t able to find any helpful videos for our bikes because nobody has any videos on them, that’s until we found your series ! Keep it up man
@@TheGorillaBiker It's the classic blue and white with the white wheels but there's such an amount options for fairing colours that I may have to get another for next winter 😁
I’m gonna be picking up a Gixxer 750 srad this weekend your videos will come in helpful as it’s a non runner I want to refurbish and bring back to life
Excellent informative video.. planning to do just this tomorrow on my recently purchased ‘98 750.. The bike dealer said they changed the oil/filter & supplied an invoice to that effect on delivery, but... looking at the oil colour makes me think the most they did was top it up, and clean the old filter. 🙄 For my my peace of mind, I’ll do it myself 👍🏼
Thanks, glad you found it helpful :) Ah yes, I always change my own stuff when it's from a place I don't know as it's always 100% definitely done then eh :D Bets of luck with the new bike I absolutely love this one :)
First gorilla biker video after watching Bry the bikers podcast, I get it🤣 great video. Love the way you tell a story, will start looking over the back catalogue 9n the build and the rest of your vlogs, stay safe buddy ❤👍
I balanced them on the bench, without that they'd be rough alright. If you don't have a balancer just pull them back out and get 4 shims or coins of equal size. Jam open number 3 with the coin/shim and balance the rest off that. So just adjust with the screws until theyre all equally tight on your shim or whatever you've used. It's actually pretty easy to do and mine runs up through the full rev range smoothly after that :)
Were you trying My accent lol sounded like it lol Loving the Videos Dude few of the guys I work with have been watching the vids to Outro Crew Q : inline 4 all the way
Haha it could have been, I don't pick the accents they just happen :D Thanks man, that's class :D Hope they don't think they're too annoying :P Inline 4s are class but I feel like they'll be largely dying out for a lot of road bikes sadly!
Keep the good work up man 👍. I have just also put new bridgestone BT016 tyre's on my SRAD. Good cheap tyre's won't break the bank account . Bargain. Before you know the SRAD will be ready to ride 🏍️😎.
Thanks man I shall :) I was looking at S22s....Very tempted to try fit them myself. Worst case I wait until I'm paid in January and I can get them then :) Just forks, brakes and tyres :D
It shall be done :) I was only thinking the S22s cus I plan on bringing it on track :) Ive used most of the brands and always found them all good except my last set of dunlops on the Fazer!
Good thing that oil was ok given how you ran the engine with it. Did you consider running an oil flush? I've heard many conflicting opinions on the topic.
I dipped it first and checked it don't worry 😂😂 Nope, I've went through mostly really old cars usually and a fella who's long since passed away always recommended doing it this way. Not that I wouldn't try an oil flush but this has always worked for me . Also even if that oil was rubbish in my opinion you're better off heating it a little before draining it as it'll get it out of all the galleries and such where it might have sludged up. The max I'd ran the bike for was 5 mins or so. Honestly I'd be more concerned about the coolant normally
Yeah I've used cmsnl.com and ebay a good bit. For all fuel pump bits I got them on fuelperformance.co.uk, I think I linked it in a video where I rebuild the fuel pump assembly! Parts are there it just sometimes takes a bit of searching :)
Ah the mic isn't doing it justice it actually sounds fairly nice :) it's already some form of aftermarket can, but I want to get a yoshmura rs3 when I can afford it :) It'll look and sound better :)
Hi ya, sorry to ask and thank u for ur fantastic videos which have helped me a lot, however I just wondered do u have any tips for a bike that’s eating Petrol and running rich?
Is it a carbed bike? It could honestly be anything, but if it's carbed it's no harm to give the carbs a good clean. Has it always been like that or did it change recently?
@@TheGorillaBiker yep a carb with no injection , it had a new recon engine put in last year and has sat for that time hence me doing a service on it, but seems to be running rich still 🙄
@@tobias7574 First things I'd check then would be is the pilot air screw is set correctly, are the jets all the correct stock size, is the exhaust and air filter etc stock, and then I have heard of people accidentally putting in a injection fuel pump rather than a carbed bike fuel pump which forces too much fuel in to the bowls, you're float bowl needles could also be worn if they're not new and no longer stopping the flow of fuel. There isn't thaaat much to troubleshoot.....just kind of everything in the fuel system :D It'd be worth checking your sparks too if they're old.
@@TheGorillaBiker that’s great! Thank u so much for ur advice…. I’m going to check those and let u know how I get on.. btw it’s got a k and n air filter which I just recharged plus I put new standards plugs in, oil change and coolant oh and some carb cleaner through the Petrol
GSXR GSXR GSXR Thankfully the filter wasn't on too tight Stabbing myself in the fingers with a screwdriver is a pain that I know too well Uh oh coolant explosion You must be a big Borat fan I think you need to straight pipe the gsxr. She's too quiet. Well coolant is good for you because I have been drinking it for the past 26 years and I turned out fine GSXR IS BEST SOUNDING / LOOKING / FASTEST / COOLEST BIKE EVUR R.I.P into + outro Goodbye my love
Pleaaaaaase it was locked solid you just underestimate my power 😤😤 Get one of those adjustable pipe things I used, way better job! Yes...it was a bad auld explosion.... Not really, I just collect accents :D My brain does it, nothing to do with me. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Straight pipe too loud and I do not want to re-jet :D Wait, really? Scuse me I have some leftover stuff I'll go drink :) But it's not a V4?? Haha they might return one day :P Adios mi amor.
Do you have the garage at the North Pole? :)))))
Hahaha nah just winter in Ireland 😂😂
@@TheGorillaBiker get some heat in the garage, it's like you are an eskimo🤣🤣🤣
@@kikirider6643 Haha that's what the hoodie is for :P
@@TheGorillaBiker it got really cold because the coolant was everywhere!!! 😜
Haha probably didn't help to be fair 😂😂

Thanks :)

You are incredibly patient mate. Can’t wait to see it being ridden.

Thanks :) Oh very nice! What colour scheme do you have? :) I will indeed :)

You sure are keeping busy mate 😁
Has to be done, or I'd go insane :P
Hi mate did you have to balance the carbs to get it running nice Iv just rebuilt my carbs and now it’s sounding ruff
I balanced them on the bench, without that they'd be rough alright. If you don't have a balancer just pull them back out and get 4 shims or coins of equal size.

Do you know any good places to buy parts for this bike? Mines fuel pump assembly is trash but I dont want to pay 600$ for a new one
Yeah I've used cmsnl.com and ebay a good bit. For all fuel pump bits I got them on fuelperformance.co.uk, I think I linked it in a video where I rebuild the fuel pump assembly! Parts are there it just sometimes takes a bit of searching :)
I think the bike can sounds a bit naff but if you stick on a aftermarket can it will sounds dead sexy.
Ah the mic isn't doing it justice it actually sounds fairly nice :) it's already some form of aftermarket can, but I want to get a yoshmura rs3 when I can afford it :) It'll look and sound better :)
@@TheGorillaBiker sexy times ahead ha
@@See_you_next_timee 100% :D
Question, where does the black skinny hose that connect to the top of the clear coolant reservoir connect to? The carbs? Please help
It's an overflow if memory serves. The lower house goes to the rad, the upper hose is an overflow hose and goes to the ground
👍🤠
