    Great work Keith bought a varadero 6 months ago and it really does help watching your videos. In the last 40 years my enthusiasm for bikes has always outweighed my ability it really gives me and others the confidence to have a go. Thanks Dan

    Hello again.
    Tell us if you remember the measurements from the valves of each cylinder. It would be a good opportunity to adjust them to finally have a brand new engine
    You can count now if you have not already done so.
    I am waiting to see the engine ready for the ride again and to hear the sound of your engine again.
    Well done for the work you do.

      Hello, appreciate your comment i will not be doing the valve clearances, as they were done only a few months ago, new shims were fitted then,

    I just found your channel and I sent you some info on the KZ650 air box video. I don't know how this works but I thought I might let you know . Just in case you don't get some type of notifications.

    Good Evening.
    I watched your videos and I can tell you that I envied you that you have the time and space to build your motorcycle.
    I hope everything goes well.
    I would like you to tell us at the end if this would not cause you a problem the total amount of money needed for the repair.
    Also if you have ever changed the tensioners or if you had any indication before that something was wrong

      Hello, thank you for your comment, i wish i had more time, i get about 6-7 hours a week at the moment and yes it is nice to have a garage to work in, i will be doing a video at the end of the series, explaining where the parts came from and how much they cost, i have never changed the tensioners and they was not much indication other than a loud rattle and loss of power, i bought the bike 7 years ago with 19.0000 miles on it, it now has 93,000 miles on it
