Excellent job..i like no talking..lighting perfect..i just did my valves.spark plug. N fuel filter..200.00 in parts..it was a huge pain in the ass..2017 cbr 300.
Yes. Adjusting valves with an engine inside the frame is a big headache. According to Honda's recommendation, I thinking, this is a test that is outside the time of the warranty. Otherwise they would make sure it was a friendlier process. Didn't it? When the engine is removed from the frame, adjusting valves is a piece of cake.
@@mycbr250rdmotorcycling7 Yes, I believe a lot of todays bikes are made in a "clever" way by the manufacturers. On average you will run out of warranty before you need to do serious maintenance. But also for high mileage bikes within warranty times, the dealerships actually don't check valve clearances but they charge you for them "checking" that the bike seems to run ok with no error codes.. That has been my observation. I can also say that has been my experience of people i know. I am used to working on machines so i can say i do not believe that someone can ride in their bike at 1100 into a bike shop and get it back at 1500 with a valve check/adjustment done. Yet i have seen this again and again with people I know. Valve checks need at least a cold engine. Anyway, I am very impressed with your patience and hard work! Wish you all the best with the bike and all the best for 2024!
@@calgapx1705 Honda does not sell oversize piston. Therefore if you want to stay with original parts you have to buy a NEW set of piston and cylinder. Maybe there are sites that sell an oversize piston, and then it is possible to fix the cylinder by honning or rebore+honning. Along the way I also did valve polishing, because it was necessary.
Hi, your working style is very neat and clean and careful, good work.

I like your work ❤.
Very nice.👌👍
Thanks, good video. Why were you taking your engine out? Problems or just maintenance?
A problem. The big one.
I found oil in my plug.
Oh dear, not good! Just need a rebore and piston perhaps? Or is it valves?
