- Hey people,
Hope you enjoy this video, do not forget to subscribe, comment and share if you enjoyed it. This was me building a motorcycle engine for the same time after my engine blew. My Yamaha FZ1 AKA Fazer 1000 blew because of the oil/water pump failing causing problems with my tensioner, big end shells, pistons and Camshaft. Feel free to check out my last video where I removed my engine from the bike:

Godaamnn son!!..mad respect..i'm inspired to blow my engine out..nah..but i'm inspired to remove each and every component in the engine and reassemble it, looks like a lotta fun.. (i do have a legit mechanic on speed dial)
i have an FZ1N 2012
Haha thanks buddy, was a lot of work but great fun and I learnt a hell of a lot! But I would say, if it is not broken, don't mess with it haha. I am happy I managed to get the chance to rebuild it, but it was full of hard times wanting it to be simple. Thanks again buddy!
I also own a Yamaha FZ1 Fazer and i love it. Such a beautiful and comfortable bike and that brutal accleration over 6000rpm is just addicting. Cant belive how its possible to rebuild a engine with no experience but okay ;). Be sure to treat her nice afterwards and offer her the best full synthetic oil possible. :D
Thanks buddu, they are great bikes!! Cannot get rid of her hence why I gave the rebuild a go. Really happy to have done it. Was pretty straight forward to be honest but felt amazing to start her up the first time!
After 6000 you better be hanging on . I have one too. 2012
Great respect Guys, That`s called a daring difficult job!! Hope it runs as good, or better as before. Good Luck!!
Very well done on the build!....i used the same stud extractor on a Bandit 1200 when i snapped one stud changing the exhaust...worked a treat! I also have a Fz1 and looking at the exhausts studs i think i'm gonna snap every one when i take the header off to clean around there cos the rust and the heat looks like its welded the studs in there.....a lot worse than the Bandit looked
Thanks buddy!! Yes was a pain to remove but had to get them out and happy I did to get new screws in :) thanks for the comment
AMAZING work! That broken stud would have had me on ebay looking for complete engine!! Awesome effort and big balls for all of it mate. Definitely not for the faint hearted and you've saved yourself thousands!! Hats off.
Thanks buddy. Well I did consider a new engine but I wanted to do it all myself. I ended up spending more money than buying a second hand engine as I had to buy a lot of parts, screws and gaskets which all add up. Thanks for watching Andy :)
What an incredible job you doughnut! Hats off to you, I could not have done it myself, I`m really happy for you and also that your channel is doing really well!. Lets go on a ride soon dude! PS... no speeding! :-D. Much love
Hahaha cheers buddy! Soon she will be on a ride out don't worry :) speeding, never!! Always got to stay legal right haha
Great build and I know that feeling when you snapped the bolt also new sub from America wish we had a better variety of bikes like y'all do in the UK
Thabks buddy! Yes was a horrible feeling at the time but the feeling of removing thr bolt felt amazing! Glad to have you with us... we do have quite a few bikes here :)
Well done, kudos to a kitchen rebuild with limited experience 👍
Thanks Carl!! :)
Very goog job Friend. Congratulations.
Thanks buddy final video currently being made :)
Good day friend, wow....with no experience.
Thanks buddy, yes was very interesting and I learnt lots throughout the process
Bloody well done Don! :-)
Thanks buddy! :)
Nice job! Must have been one hell of a frustrating moment when the bolt broke off. How much did those parts cost you?
Yes it was very annoying but glad I took the extra time to remove and replace it. A lesson learnt with aluminium bolts haha
Believe it or not I have a 2012 fz1 and a KTM 1190 R . What are the odds ? Also have a 2009 fat bob Harley. Your videos are great !
Snap, nice one buddy both great bikes! Still have them of course :) need a harley still
Nice one man, I remember changing the clutch cable on mine having to take the tank and airbox off I thought that was a big task lol BTW I'm guessing the stud extractor worked well? I have one of those ones too just in case.
Haha yes still a big job! They work pretty well but worth heating up the stud before. I will explain more in the next video:)
Dude, the intro song is the same as my ring tone haha, had me trippin
Haha brilliant! Welcome to the channel buddy
Great video!!! Just gained a sub 👍
Thanks Pat and welcome :)
Wow great job! I own a 2012 FZ1N.. I hope you do post the follow up for this vid!
Thanks buddy! Yes follow up is in the process of being edited but as I am away on tour it may come after a few weeks :)
@@TheDonInLondon subscribed! Enjoy your trip. Hit me up if you're in Singapore 🇸🇬
I know I'm a few months late but your cat is adorable. Looks exactly like my cat. Even her pissed off face looks exactly my cats 😂
Haha thanks, and it's never too late :)
👍🏻
I subbed btw. Came from motorbike craziness. I'm a 17 year old girl who wishes to ride a motorcycle at some point in my life so I love these channels 😂
Awesome, welcome to the channel!! Well I have a few videos that will help teach you a few things about riding too :)
Thank you! I'm already enjoying your videos since you aren't like some other riders on yt that get a bit overdramatic over nothing
Haha thanks :) yes each to their own I suppose
Are you going to have to re torque the head after a few miles mate? Well done for your first rebuild! Time to move it on now?....🤔👍🏻😎
Should be ok without having to re torque as per the manual. Will keep her tbh after all this work. Am currently changing her look so will be making her a custom bike:)
It lives 👍
Yes so happy she is back :)
Dude I’d have definitely changed the Rings. Old Rings in a different bore what was you thinking 🤔
I bought second hand pistons and the barrels together and of course the same rings so it was all together. Meant i didn't need to rebore etc..
The Don In London that makes more sense.
Haha don't worry I thought everything through :) most of the things were replaced because of the amount of damaged caused
Since you changed the crank did it have the same journal size numbers as the original? One thing about the rings, its not always necessary to change them, but i would check all of the end gaps before putting them back in. Especially when going in a different cylinder set. It should be fine though unless your rings were really bad. Looks like you may have a bit of an exhaust leak?
Yes same numbers as it came as a set. The orings came also as a set with pistons and barrels to be sure. Exhaust was not on tight but yes it was an exhaust leak as i didn't want to tighten all the way. Since fitting properly she works like a dream :) few changes still to make however
svaka čast ! ;)
Hvala vam!! :)
;)
Well done mate and good effort with the rebuild. What happened at the end during first startup?
Cheers buddy, was just a quick start up as pipes were not on properly etc... will post another video once the custom build is finished on her :)
Nice job I'm subbed
Thanks buddy, welcome to the club!
great job mate, but did i see you run it without oil at the end of the vid? hehe
Thanks buddy! No but the first time you till and run it all the oil gets spread so you need to top up after which was done.. don't worry after all this work I wouldn't run it with no oil hahaha
Awesome job mate, especially for a first time rebuild, only one bold snapped and that one was really unlucky. Looking forward to see a startup, if you filmed it. What matts are those mate, they could come in handy for me pretty soon.
A tiny bit hasty on the start up comment lol ;)
Thanks buddy, yes was unlucky to snap but happy to have fixed it in the end. Start up not perfect at the first point, however it needed a new chain and tensioner which has been resolved. More coming soon! Matts from halfords very cheap and handy! :)
@@TheDonInLondon Looking forward to it mate. Thanks, I will be getting some of those matts, got some projects of my own planned for the near future.
@@HalfdeadRider awesome keep me posted how it goes!!! Thanks again
@@TheDonInLondon Will do mate 👍
tell me it was running lean from a pipe or something man, the fact that it blew at 44k miles really worries me, im at 37k, about to do my first valve adjustment and i ride it like i stole it. just got my forks done and shit too.
No she was not running lean but my oil and water pump failed on me, would recommend changing your timing chain and tensioner though. I still need to finish a couple of things on her before I make my final video so will explain it there too.
@@TheDonInLondon I was gonna do a graves aftermarket tensioner and Im gonna do a proper coolant flush with engine ice, replace thermo... now I wanna open my water pump and see how good that is, damn thats nuts. I just hope mine makes it to 60k ish, I assume ill have enough for a mt10 by then. its my 3rd fz1 already.
@@TheDonInLondon going off the fact that we are mandatory in replacing the drive chain, ill dreadfully have to take your advice on the timing chain as well. Its a lot of wrenching compared to a car, this is why more ppl dont ride here in US lol.
Oh wow, well you will definitely be interested in my next video on the fazer. Just need to find them time to do it :(
Wow, 3rd Fazer. By doing those things. I am sure you will be fine. I feel mine was a rare case, plus it was my mistake to continue riding her :(
Me encantan estos videos de tetracilindricas
gracias muy feliz que te guste :)
@@TheDonInLondon inpecable el trabajo ...se hizo con pasion ....ademas la fz1 es una de las motos que deseo tener
gracias! Sí, fue mi pasión terminar el proyecto. Estoy muy feliz de que esté casi terminado y subiré el próximo video sobre esto pronto. Gracias de nuevo por tu comentario. la fz1 es una moto increíble!
@@TheDonInLondon que bueno otro video estare pendiente ...gracias por contestar
what was your riding style like? any signs or symptoms before the bike engine went? do you accelerated hard before the bike is warmed up (5-10 minutes)
Hey buddy, no always let the bike run to temperature before riding hard, even a few minutes before setting off. She did get ridden hard most of the time as I ride quickly. I did have the chain slapping sounds coming before which was quiet to begin with. I should have stopped then and got her recovered. I didn't have much experience on engines before and was told it should be ok to get home, until the big bang 🤦♂️
I see that cracking bolt are nothing extraordinary in this engine. in December I was rebild my engine and I also broke one bolt
Yes seems very easy to happen on these engines!
I clicked for the kitty lol :D
Haha she is worth the click ;)
I know right ☺️got the same cute face at home only she is fully black
Does the alternator shares the same shaft with the starter motor?
Yes it does, had an issue with the bearing which I will explain in the next video which I am working on currently
@@TheDonInLondon It's a ingenious design to lessen the width of the engine at crankshaft level.
Does the starter motor spins all the time along with the alternator, or is there a mechanism which separates the two after the engine starts?
@@chong-kenglimdr8922 i suppose so, not that experienced with engines as this was my first tear down and build. It does look like it disengages after the starter motor turns but I am not 100% sure to be honest. I did look at how it worked but was hard to do without spinning with the case open and didn't want to do that myself haha
When u have the pistons out u need to put new rings on them otherwise they will never set right atleast thats what ive heard
I bought pistons with the rings it was set with. If that was true then im sure my bike would have had issues already and have done 6k with the new engine build
@@TheDonInLondon ohhhh i was just thinking u reused the rings my bad amazing job tho i wasnt hating at all you definetly got more balls than me… im scared for the day i have to do this cause i cant afford a shop to do the work my fz1 is at 9400 miles so hopefully its a long time before i have that issue😂
@dylanmaiville2414 no all good buddy not to worry. Well this was more expensive to fix than to just purchase a second hand engine but I wanted to learn all about them. Engines are strong but update your stator and keep an eye on any chain sounds like I had. Thanks for dropping comments
@@TheDonInLondon i did the rotor upgrade with the rmstator brand one with the magnets enclosed in the case and i would like to check the chain tensioner this winter ill keep an eye out for any chain slap sounds tho and maybe do it before winter how would i tell if its going bad? If it pushes in really easy?
@dylanmaiville2414 nice well done! You will hear the clicking sound but its rare to be fair
The head of the exhaust pipe isn’t sealed
That’s not good
It was leaking from the headers as it was put on loose and was sealed after
Glad to hear that
Amazing job bruh
Thanks buddy!! There is the final video which is out explaining more. The engine has run beautifully for the last 4,000 odd miles and still running :)
Have one of ur friends guided u for the rebuilding
Or just took lots of research and decided to DIY?
@@cat542233 nope no guidance, in fact my friends told me I wouldn't be able to do it hence my excitement when she ran for the first time... I know, they are bad friends haha. I had sense of how engines worked before and always tinkered with my cars before but what helped me was the manufacturers manual which I read whilst I rebuilt the engine 💪
