**small car rant** haha I helped a friend with a 2015 Camaro RS manual convertible, upgrade the brake and clutch hydraulics (ZL1 brake master cylinder/fluid reservoir, separate clutch master cylinder/fluid reservoir, and Cadillac CTS-V front BBK). No stainless steel brake lines, since the car isn’t going to drag raced or track driven a lot. Any high quality, racing DOT 4 brake fluid is also highly recommended. For the engine, we stuck to 0w-30 engine oil, installed an oil catch can, and rigged up a custom engine oil cooler setup with parts from a Chevy Colorado. The manual gearbox ended up running GL-5 75w-110 for a thicker gear oil, and it sure takes harder, spirited driving a lot better than typical GL-5 75w-90. Tried 75w-140 in the gearbox and it was way too thick, especially when the trans/gearbox reached operating temps. Aside from that, swapped in a 5.5 gen (14-15) SS 1LE hood, with the factory hood vent; and the thing keeps the engine very cool. You do have to remove the water deflector tray under the hood vent, however. A compromise would be water and other things getting into the engine bay; but we usually stick a big towel under the hood vent in the hood, when getting machine car washes. For upgrading the factory 18” inch wheels, it was easy to find some 6th gen Camaro SS 20” inch wheels. People sometimes sell 2 or 3 wheels from a damaged/salvaged set, so I helped him find the bigger wheels from the staggered set; this allowed us to run a wide square wheel/tire setup. 275 wide tires all around also helped performance tremendously. Only thing left is the measly open diff…. It’s not exactly the greatest, but it does the job… No plans to turbocharge or supercharge the car, although tempting. It’s fine as an NA car and suspension has had some multi-point braces added on the chassis, as well as strut tower bar and sway bar upgrades. Stock shocks and struts were also ditched for some nice adjustable coilovers, with manually adjustable damper controllers. The exhaust was kept rather quiet, as we installed long tubes and high flow cats with an X-pipe; and we didn’t want it to sound like a raspy tin can of bees… The niché V6 pony car community gets enough hate as it is; more negative attention sucks. It’s tuned on HP Tuners, as handheld tuners got phased out recently. Car is actually doing rather well, and is going to be getting an upgraded clutch and flywheel kit sometime soon. All badges have been removed, and interior has had SS leather seats swapped in; so this confused some folks who hated, thinking my friend is trying to create a fake replica of an SS V8 model…

You have the spring around the wrong way, and you missed showing the actual backrest bracket.

Thanks for the video. Very straight forward approach. Well done. I do have a question: I need to *remove* my rack to put on the passenger backrest. Is there any trick to getting the rubber toppers off? Thanks!

Is this the same way the Hondaline backrest installs. I want to add a luggage rack later and don’t want the area for the luggage rack to be used for the backrest

Thanks this was helpful. I was afraid to pull in things to hard but once I knew how they come off, it was easy!

Out of curiosity…what are those two covers on the rear of the bike actually for? Is that where the mounting holes would be for the trunk on the touring?

😊😮

Love my Wing . But Apple CarPlay is peace crap! It works about 30 % correctly. 8:27 Hit and miss on start up. Can’t believe Honda would keep using this!

Im thinking of buy a v6 convert with a 6 speed manual for my mom. How reliable was this car? The one im looking at is 55k miles

Do you happen to know what sound system is in the car? Was it the Bose or the base system?

my buddy bought this car it’s a nice car dude!!

Installed it on my 2023 Goldwing MT. Many thanks from a guy in South Korea! Used center stand to make sure all nuts and bolts are aligned well.

Thanks for the video. It was very helpful.

Many thanks very useful, my bagger has exactly the same colour !

I have a white 1976 Corvette that I have owned for 34 years. Bought it in 1990. It is completely stock appearing, inside and out. The engine and transmission are not original. It did not come with the original engine. I built the engine that is in it now. It looks mostly stock, I did not put any aftermarket appearance items on it, but there are quite a few internal aftermarket parts. It is now a 383ci stroker engine that makes around 320 rwhp at 4000 rpm. It's not fast, but it's a lot faster than it was new. I was more concerned with reliability. It was originally an L48 car. It now has a true dual exhaust system with no cat con, but stock round mufflers. It still sounds stock. It does have aftermarket A/C, so the compressor is different than what it originally came with. I bought a custom built TH350 transmission and just installed it with a B&M 2200 converter. It has the Buckskin leather interior. Silver steel 15x8 rally wheels with trim rings and center caps, 225/70-15 RWL BFG Radial T/As. Completely rust free AZ car. To me the 1974-1977 Corvettes are the best looking Corvettes ever made. I love the urethane bumper covers and flat rear window. It originally came with a luggage rack, but I removed that and had the holes repaired when I had it painted. I was 16 in 1975, and this was my dream car back then, and still is. There is no other car I want more.

I own this car now

Just follow your instrutions to install my rear carrier for my 2020 goldwing! Easy and quick! Thanks!

My box is rebuilt, by me, using the Zip tutorial. I put it back together based on original positions and visible threads from pics i took before the rebuild. New rag joint, tie rod ends, damper, and PSCV. I have about 3" play in the wheel and I am chasing it when driving. 1) I was able to loosen the H nut about 1/2 turn (I could not tighten it any more) and no difference driving. I just loosed it about another 1/2 inch and will test it. I have not adjusted the V screws. 2) if it is still loose, then I assume I go back the other way and try to tighten it? 3) Is it possible the V is too tight as well so no matter what I do the H it won't help?

Great Video, I've not seen the new vet other than on the road. This venue was perfect for the corvette show. You did a great video, thanks for sharing.

Are you happy with the aftermarket part, or do you wish youd have spent the extra money gor oem? Thanks, Dave

Adding or mentioning or showing the correct part numbers for the consumables (filter, o-ring, crush washers) would surely help your viewers.

Thanks for the video, very helpful. Where did you get the passenger backrest? Look nice

So apple car play can’t be played through the motorcycle speakers ?

Thanks for the video it was very helpful, have a great day

Nice.

you made interesting editing~take it easy- =)

You know the radio is Bluetooth, don't you?

I replaced my box and ram and it helped but still felt to sloppy for me. Installed the newer Borgeson system and wow!

Thanks for the helpful video. Ordered one today. Just wondering how you like the stock Honda backrest. Does it adjust forward and back?

That coupe with blower be the car to roll with!!!

ACP question; I tried to make a call and it said it was connecting but I couldn't hear them and they couldn't hear me? I hit the mute button and nothing happened. I asked Cardo to Answer and still nothing> would be nice if someone went into more details on how to actually use APC not just hooking it up. Another example; I a split screen I saw the map on the left side and the music I was listening to on the right side, But I have no idea what button i pushed to get this screen and could never get it back. What Cardo commands will and won't work while using ACP?

Steering boxes get their slop from straight driving since that's where we are most of the time. So if you turn the wheel full-lock in either direction, you can snug the sector shaft pretty good and that will be all that you can get out of it and also be safe from breaking the box entirely. If you take out too much lash with the wheels straight on, you can break the box when you do turn full-lock because there is less wear. Hope this helps.

Good simple description. Just one suggestion, as with all rubber parts place them in a bowl of hot water for 30 minutes prior to assembly, it makes them more pliable when fitting.

Why do you need to initialize the dct?

What backrests are those?

where did you get those Goldwing emblem on saddle bag

Thanks for showing me how to do this, I really appreciate it. 👍

What are those wheels on the car now?

What's the wind protection like from the standard screen please. Looking to change my Harley RGS, only ridden a tour as no baggers available to demo in UK at moment.

Very good video - watched it and fitted mine with no issues - thanks

You posted a link to a chrome carrier. Why would you do a installation video without posting a link of what it is you actually installed?

The blue with the red accents is such a nice color scheme, sweet ride

Assistenza alla salita come funziona?

Nice

How much

Oh o really feel this ride

Great bike but man you need to invest in a tripod.

dear~ How are things?,so well masterpiece!all the best,

Is this the Stock seat ? Looks like the passenger has some nice room? Does your passenger have room between them and the riser backrest? Or are they touching?

The blue is amazing. I'll try and get one next year. Great video
