    I admire your work ethic. You put out content consistently and for that I for one can acknowledge credit where credit is due. I am one of those people that has been watching your videos for years and really do wish you would develop further as a mechanic. It’s your channel and your opinion is the only one that matters I get it but people who are mechanics would have a higher opinion of you if some of the sound advice offered to you from your audience was something you could value and appreciate. Most of us long time viewers really are rooting for you and offer advice to help you and are not motivated by trying to be overly critical and just dumping on you. And once again I for one value and appreciate your work ethic.

    Joe, the chain sprocket looks severely worn very pointy at tips. It looks like the owner tried kick starting it while gears were bound up! It’s the only way that carnage could happen. A chain jump wouldn’t cause transmission gear damage. Lack of oil or bad bearings causing gear teeth misalignment.
    Also tell owner to use non-ethanol gas!

    That warrior I'm doing for a guy, it's nuts. Couldn't get flywheel off with puller, got to looking at it, it's tack welded to crank. Was rebuilt 2 years ago and started clattering badly. Severe hack job. I knew it was gonna be bad from get go. No grease anywhere, swing arm locked up, etc. Doubt internaly is very well either, had less than 1/4 of a quarter of oil in it. Rod bearings seem ok, but the crank is toast. Bunch of 8 and 10mm headed bolts have been cross thread and used sae bolts 1/4 20s mostly. Yeah 7/16 headed bolts. No gaskets on it, all silicone. Horrible mess. Pulled oil filter housing, it was filled with debris. Wish us luck on this pig, you keep rolling bud, great vids, hope you don't get one like this, wa ts whole bike gone through front to back and motor fixed up, wants it all for under 3k. Got 4 hours already in it. Hardly made a dent. Keep up great vids Joe!! Could use you on this P.O.S. make great vid series for sure.. will let you know how it goes... still gonna get our morning Joe vids before we start wrenching.

    The chain fell off, but was still on the front sprocket, but was lodged somewhere on the frame and the engine was still running and in gear. That is what caused a gear to sheer. The repetitive starting and riding caused further damage

  • @jakeslouw3416
    @jakeslouw3416 9 месяцев назад +1

    The chain came off under load and then probably jammed up between the counter-shaft sprocket and the engine case or between the sprocket and swing-arm: the torque was then applied straight through the gears.

  • @chumps7974

  • @Pinnacle89
    @Pinnacle89 9 месяцев назад +2

    Sounds like when he dropped the bike with the chain loose maybe under high throttle something caught the chain and sheared gears? That was my initial guess before he even opened the block.

    • @rickywoods3101
      @rickywoods3101 9 месяцев назад

      On this one, I think when the chain broke, it got caught in the drive sprocket causing an immediate harsh stop snapping teeth and then more teeth were probably broken after trying to ride it .
      I'm a mechanic also and that would be my guess on this one.

    If when that chain came off it jammed on the case or rear sprcket, even for a brief second it would lock the trans and the crankshafts rotational momentum would shear gear teeth off very quickly. 😕

    You told us the cause of the sheared teeth right at the beginning of this vid when you said the chain came off, if the bike is in gear ,clutch out , revs on and chain comes off and bunches up against the engine case it will stall the engine instantly applying energy to the weakest point, Gear teeth, this was a common problem with early Yamaha IT's and YZ"s where they would also punch a hole in the case.

    Luv watching your channel, I’ll learning by watching your videos. I’ve been looking for part 2 of your Grandfather’s bike you were working on. Did you make other videos of the repairs ? Keep it up 👍

    I wonder if it was metal fatigue that caused the gears to fail from repeated strain. When the chain gave way, it triggered the failure. Otherwise, it's a really clean bike, and looks to have been well cared for.

    Hi, love your videos I wonder when you find time to sleep😁
    Need a new front sprocket too, it looks like a little saw blade, if you do best practice is to change the back one and chain too.
    I have seen you sometimes replace only de back one without a new front sprocket or chain.
    But I understand you keep the cost as low as possible.
    Thanks for the joy you bring to us.❤

    Pointless checking the valve clearances and cam timing when the head is coming off any way. Vertical split crankcase, so you can't find get into the gearbox without removing the head and cylinder. Overall good job though.

    I think over hardening of the gearbox gears . This has caused brittleness of the teeth which resulted in teeth stripping when chain came off.

    Literally own the same one, just an LE model with the 16 rear and electric start. 150cc big bore.

    For those of you considering buying a Yamaha dirt bike, I would do some serious investigation. Watching previous rebuilds of Suzuki motors and Honda, the Yamaha seems to require much more time and labor. The trouble alone it just splitting the cases from the opposite side requiring the removal of every gear and every washer possible was madness to me. Unless I'm missing something this Yamaha motor seems more complicated to assemble. Thoughts?

    I think that's the one thing I dislike about bikes as such.. you have to tear the ENTIRE engine apart to get to the transmission.. that's brutal.. splitting the case to find .. well I'm 42:00 in you just pulled the oil pump out, but man.. that's a LOT of work to find something that could be silly in the transmission.. However- I love watching you do it Joe, you're an artist with these things, a magician if I may.. Merry Christmas brother, have a great holiday season with the wife and dogs!!!
    edit: oh WOW 1 minute later and holy smokes!! What carnage!!! Awesome catastrophe wowsers!!! I'm surprised, it really does NOT look like there's a ton of hours on that bike.. I realize the chain came off, and catastrophes happened when chains come off, I know for a fact.. but man.. jeez oh man that really sucks.. Even the ring gap, being what it is.. yeah it's there but man I've seen running bikes with way WAY more worn rings. Seriously looks like he took GREAT care of that bike. What a shame, but if anyone's the man to fix that thing, it's you!!

    Maybe one day you could build a big bore piston with hiperfornance cam shaft project bike . That xl 500 would make for a good 540 motor
