My Sunday evening is now complete. All is good in the cosmos.
😀 thanks a lot James!
Nice to spend time with you while I'm snowed in across town.
Hopefully see you tonight Doug! I'm coming over with Dave and his off-road vehicle that can climb up Mount Hood! Cheers, Mike
My sunday morning delight!👌 Greetings from Hungary George
Many thanks George. I hope all is well. Best wishes, Mike.
Just after 10-pm in NZ Mike , this is a lovely wind-down before bed . Even my modern W650 was transformed by a good going-over . Cable-lube made a huge-difference and i 'future-proofed' the underside of the chrome-mudguards along-with other hard-to-get-to places . A large-robust shoe-lace is excellent for polishing spokes and upper fork-stanchions etc while a stainless wire-brush (must be stainless) works wonders on alloy fins and rougher-castings . Silvo is a great 'final' polish on shiney-alloy bits . I find $2-shop nail-polish (colour-matched of-course ) is excellent for minor stone-chips etc. White-vinegar is equal to your tank-cleaner and very-cheap , I slosh a generous-amount of diesel , covering the inside (reduces 'flash-rust' ) until I'm ready to re-fit and fill with gas (real petrol over 'Blend' if possible ) . I always learn-something by watching your vids , every-bit helps to keep great-bikes alive Dave
Another nice video. My sunday morning delight.
Cheers.
Christophe.
Thank you, Christophe. I hope all is well. Glad you enjoy the videos. Best wishes, Mike
The tennis balls on the end of the levers is smart... you could lose an eye on those if you're not careful. Or just hit your head. I don't have a lift in my garage, so they usually get me as I'm standing up from a crouched position.
It's always nice when the reason something isn't working turns out to be an obvious and easy fix...like a broken tach cable.
Thanks Dave, yes, I have had a couple of stabbed heads in the past! Thanks a lot for your note. Yes, I took the other end of the tachometer cable off and it’s definitely missing the inner cable. Best wishes, Mike
You can check the tach with an electic drill and a bit of cable. Be sure and turn it anti-clockwise.
What satisfying work. I see the manxman with the red seat on the bench. I had wondered , as I enjoyed binge watching that Norton Manxman series of videos. Cheers, J.
One of these days, John, I will get back to it ☺️
Enjoyed the video, thanks for posting. Mike. I am really looking forward to seeing the handlebars, levers and switches all cleaned up. I predict now that they will all clean up like new money. Thanks again.
Thanks a lot Rod, yes I’m hoping that they will come up nice with the quick glo 😉 I hope all is well. We are missing the warm weather of the south right now! We have a little snow and it’s very cold. Best wishes, Mike
Interesting as usual, thanks Mike
Thanks a lot Kevin, I appreciate it. We are making progress 😉
Another calm, cool and collected vid. Cheers.
Thank you, Phil, I ran out of time with this one. I’ve been so busy with work this week. Best wishes, Mike
That’s true even for me! Sunday morning routine; I love it!❤ greetings from northern Germany Manfred
Hi Manfred, I hope all is well. It’s great to hear from you. Hope you are staying warm! Best wishes, Mike
Mike.me encanta esa moto como.va a quedar sáludos Rafa de mardel plata Argentina
Hola Rafael, ¡qué bueno saber de ti! Espero que todo esté bien. Me alegra que estés disfrutando de estos vídeos. Los mejores deseos
getting there .
Yes, I’m nearly at the end of the front end and then will start putting things back on the bike! Best wishes, Mike
Moving on 😅 a great project to be working on through the cold months Mike.
atvb t .. 👍 .. 🏍
Thanks a lot Terry. we have snow here today, so that’s why the furnace kept recycling in the video! I try and work when it closes down, but it was going off and on like crazy yesterday! Best wishes, Mike
How about using Aerotight Nuts to fit the Carburettor to the Barrel ?
Give those stubborn screws a sharp tap on the end of a screwdriver with a metal cap on the end will you Michael?. It helps to break the oxidisation on the threads.
Many thanks for the tip! I think he is actually used the wrong screws. Both are different and the threads look a little damaged so I’ll give them a closer inspection for sure. Best wishes, Mike.
@@TheMightyGarage ls the pre Fisher Price red button the flasher?
It’s the kill switch button for the magneto 👍
Mike , can you talk us thru’ it , instead of typing it ! Your voice is the reason I watch , pleeeeeeeeeze Mike more speaking and relaxation ! Other than that , amazing ! 👏👏👏👏🇮🇲🏍️
Hee hee, will do! Unfortunately the furnace was recycling over and over again and it tends to interfere with the audio, but will definitely try and talk a little through the steps a little more :-) best wishes, Mike
If the missing inner cable turns out to be the sole reason the rev counter doesn’t work, then that’s a real bonus. Can’t help but think,with how tight some of the screws were, if it were JIS, the force needed to unscrew would have just chewed them up. Well at least with me on the screwdriver! lol.
Obviously never JIS on a British bike and everything needs to be very tight to slow everything shaking itself to bits 😊
Ha ha, not as bad as A65s.
Thanks a lot Martin, yes, I remove the other end of the rev counter cable, and there’s definitely nothing in there! Hopefully there’s nothing else wrong with the drive and the instrument is good. I’m going to take them to my friend to inspect. Best wishes, Mike.
😃😃 thanks Richard, thankfully, many of the nuts and bolts have not been touched so they are tightened just right. I think unfortunately, the previous owner had used the wrong screws on those handlebar levers, so we will see what they look like on the bench. Best wishes, Mike
@@richardbartlett6932 Yes , I meant the fasteners on older Japanese machines.
I always found the Monoblocs to be better carbs than the Concentircs !!
Nah, disagree there apart from the pilot drilling route.🙄
Hi Mike, can you tell me, are the pilot jets in monoblocs removable , I need to buy one for a modified b33 .cheers
Hi, yes indeed. The following are clips from the BSA Monobloc disassembly process that I hope will help. Cheers, Mike

oh mike don't you ever throw tools or say 'bad words' when wrenching on yer bikes?
He's just a competent editor....
😎☺️😃
Ha ha, there are a few choice words now and then, but mysteriously they never make it into the final cut 😎😀
