Another brilliant video Del, expertly filmed and edited by Penny. Perfect timing for the much needed Thruxton fork oil change, it resembled thick grey Bisto, I'm fitting some gators at the same time.Thanks also for the heads up on the Sealy suction thingy, was a great help for the brake fluid change.Cheers to you both.

Wonderful video no obnoxious talk where it shouldn't be

Del, you do know you'll never be able to use those curtains again dont you

Looking good. What a great finish you get with that stuff.

Very well done. I am going to fit them to my SYM 250i scooter. Thanks for the demo.

Splendid work sir!!!

Top man 👍🏻

Wow! Those paint rattle cans have come a long way since I first used one! That’s a fantastic finish on that drive housing. Nicely done!

Hi Del & Penny. Hope you are both doing well, nice video mate. Looks like new, job well done, that tough black paint is the business. Have a relaxing weekend and take care, P.S sunshine is in the post LOL. Cheers

Lovely result, all down to dedicated preparation-- well done Sir top job, hi to PP & have a great weekend 😀 x

Excellent prep work Del as always with a top paint job to follow 👍

Nice job Del well done.. looks better than factory 😊 Pete 👍👍

great video, stupid engineering. who puts a captive drive belt behind a massive clutch housing? also... a 2 1/4" socket??? just what ?

We, never seen soo much corrosion under there. I did the same, long process. Great job!!

First off.... Epic camera work by Penny !!! I was tempted to grab a dust mask as if I was right there with you two. And Del you truly have the patience of a saint to get through all that tedious prep work but the results speak for themselves. Curious how that one piece was quietly disintegrating all by itself. Hope you both have a relaxing weekend, You've certainly earned it. ❤👍👍

VERY impressive masking up there. No chance of any overspray.

👍👍

Nice touch at 8.40, "obviously".

Wow, that turned out awesome, better than new! Very meticulous work, great job 👍

Another amazing video once again!! What type of moly (or not moly) lube do you recommend for the splines of the rear wheel drive gear when you put it all back together? Thanks.

Obviously.... You should TM that.... And go to Simoniz and make them your channel sponsor.... That was Basically the best ad on KZbin they could ask for.... 😃 Heck thats the best ad anywhere that anyone could ask for....... Obviously!!!

That's a great job pal,when you do something you do it right, that's the way jobs should be done, old school.

What are your thought on balacing beads?

Dell you sound like darth vader

Amazing stuff, Simoniz one coat tough paint! Perfect timing again as the engine cover needs painting and was going to go down the etch primer route and topcoat. But now it's going to be tough paint instead. Rockets looking the biz Del and especially with the new shoes!

I know you’re class at what you do but who are you kidding that you found the 10mm first try!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂

The new flag looks great! Freedom is not free....As for the factory paint on the gear housing, my guess would be that the gear housing was sourced from a different supplier with a paint department with contamination issues. Probably not properly degreased. Even with a proper acid etching primer, paint ain't gonna stick long-term to aluMINium if there is contamination under the paint. With the good prep work here, hopefully this Trumpet will have a nice rear end for many moons

I don't like powder coat, when it falls it fails severely, I prefer paint

Your understanding of the 7 Ps and your attention to detail makes the task look effortless! Again a fantastic demonstration of how to achieve fantastic results, demonstrating to us all your ability and our potential. Great work young man. Love the flag!

Death by masking tape!!! Lol. Only joking Del. Thats gonna look lovely once its done. Do you think it was a poor factory quality paint or just age related??

Thanks a bunch for this! Very helpful.

Good video man.👍

Thankyou for remembering ⚔️🇬🇧⚔️

Me and my boy are doing up a 1986 Honda tlr200 and it needs paint work, so thanks for sharing 👍

neat work del and spot on camra work penny

New tyres look great.

Del........You'd make one hell of a dentist...."Open wide please and we're gonna' polish that beautiful differential you've got there, then seal it up with a few coats of satin black".......Without a doubt, the best looking diff on the planet. Triumph should have you paint all their Rockets black.

Hi D&P, great job, bet your glad you got ya mitts on that job, couldn’t a left it like that for sure, love satin black, MM

Great spray, great video . Looks alot better 😊

Strange how it`s only the shaft coupling housing is like it, and shaft housing is fine, is the shaft housing steel and coupling housing alluminium, or are they both ally?.

Looks pretty cool just rubbed down 😂

Rattle can hero!! 😎 I know it's going to look great even before part two is released. I have learned so much by watching the channel over the years. Great content.

Best not to let the Memsahib see those masking skills Del, she'll be off buying wallpaper & the like . . . ("A lot of skill & hard work goes into getting a hand plastered finish anywhere near that smooth & level - so why stick old copies of The Budapest Pigeon Fancier's Weekly, or other such rubbish, all over it?" A quick whiff of magnolia (BEIGE!) & most rooms are good to go . . . Ergo, more garage time eh? As my rattle-can work is best described as 'rustic troweling by Mungo's left foot', I will now shut up : )xx

I've got the same flaking on mine mate, must be factory issues.

i have seen this before on a lot of XV's side cases i call it ally cancer but it comes up ok but never seems to get deep in its like rust but not as bad im sure there is a name for the reaction but i don't know it keep up the good work Ride safe in this weather if you do go out

Hi Delboy, you might be right. Maybe it wasn't prepared right from the factory. If you didn't do anything would it have eaten the metal up completely? Anyway, a great job. Best regards, Frank from Florida.

How come you painted it and didnt have it re-powdercoated mate?

Great job as always, I love the attention to every detail, can I ask Penny pitstop, all the hours you obvouusly spend behind the camera and editing,do you enjoy the process as much as Den obviously does? I watched you both grow your channel over the years and its well deserved and amazing.

Great result Del will look spot on once you find the energy to lift that new back wheel in .

Top job, like usual. Love watching your videos. Günter/Nürnberg PS: Lest we forget!
