This was such a helpful video - I’m rebuilding a CB750F1 and based on this video I bought the oem air box rubbers rather than pattern and I knew how to install them oriented correctly- saved me a lot of hassle both in the short and long term. Thank you Andy
Thanks Martin, sorry for the long delay in replying, I only came across your comment today! Pleased you found the video helpful, keep up the good work 😀 All the best Andy
Great to hear, it's good to get feedback on the videos & it makes me happy knowing they are helpful to you. Great work saving another classic bike :-) All the best Andy
@AndyMechanic could you possibly tell me where you found the seal that was sandwiched in between the three of the air box. I had to rip mine apart to clean it out. Thank you in advance.
Hmmm....try David Silver spares in the UK, they gave a web site too. Other than that you could try eBay in the US & find a new old stock part? Good Luck. Andy
Stuck on a plane at the gate with a mechanical problem for over 2 hours Thought I'd catch up on your latest video. Good work as always. Need you here to fix this plane!
Great work as always Andy. Astonishing how the rubber deteriorates and perishes over the years. I hope Alan is able to enjoy the bike. Not too far away with my own project too. Philip McDaid
Cheers Phil, I had a massive push on this project over the past week. It's nothing like the same full rebuild as your Superdream, you are doing an awesome job for sure - your attention to detail is certainly inspiring. Keep up the great work my friend. Cheers for now. Andy
I hadn't thought of using a sealant on my airbox rubbers like that. If you have to take them out in 10 years, how hard would it be with the dried silicone?

Thanks again. I was able to find the air box gasket at davr silvers. Pricey, but I got. 👍
Most excellent, have a good New Year. All the best. Andy

Hey Andy, I think those Vessel JIS screwdrivers also function as an impact scewdriver too.

No cider it's not the weekend yet.

It wont be too bad, l think UV light will have some shrinking and hardening effect depending on the chemical ingredients and hence cost of the product
Lucky you were being supplied . The clamps are a shocking price. Then nz currency × frieght .
Broken your lathe? Thats what l meant when l said soak 'em in diesel on live stream!
Hmmmmmm......
