Great rider and person Steve Baker. Always thought he was very underrated.

While working for Canadian Honda, I briefly met Steve Baker circa 1977 when he was representing Yamaha Motor Canada at a dealer open house in Barrie, Ontario (Powersports, I think). I clearly remember him telling me that while doing tire testing in Daytona on his OW he bypassed the chicanes to keep his speed into the banked part of the track. He described how the G forces bottomed out the bike's suspension and caused him to lose his vision "very briefly." Steve by all accounts is a rather quiet guy, not prone to hyperbole or boasting so the memory of him sharing this experience with me remains almost a half-century later.

They say you should never meet your hero's but in Steve's case, I'd say they're wrong. The late Alex Mayes was our instructor at Yamaha Motor Canada in Downsview when I was a young Yamaha mechanic. He took us to see Steve's newly uncrated race bike, (I think it was a 250, though). I'm only 5'10", but my knees didn't fit in the cutaway in the tank. That bike was soooo cool! and we got to hold a handful of titanium screws that were to replace the steel ones. Even that was awesome. No-one in 1977 outside of aerospace or the racing world got anywhere near that material.

You’re so lucky . We owned Hampton County Sport Center in SC. Yamaha Triumph BMW so I raced all my life. I became a flight attendant so I got to race all over the US. I even used my NY layovers to visit Team Obsolete and touch the guts of the 250 6. My best times were the vintage races and having to race with Dick Mann and Don Vesco. Vesco family gave me parts for my SC500 MX and Champion flat tracker. Billy 747

Will this help with the shifting smoothness on my 14 1290 sdr? Noticed its getting a little harder to shift. Fresh motex oil change usually takes care of this.
@360Crank 7 ай бұрын
If your clutch is also engaging too close the the grip, there’s a good chance that’s the case. Aside from the technique I suggest, there is also a small bleed nipple at the clutch lever mount that you can crack open with the lever pulled to see if air comes out. Many people will replace the clutch slave to solve the air in the line problem, but the flicking method is so easy to do that I haven’t bothered. My shifting definitely improved afterward the first time I had this problem and applied this solution. Hope you have success.

I know this is an older video but I’m considering fitting to my 2019 GT. Looking at your pics you shared on flickr seems intimidating to do. I’m guessing you bought separately the relay and made the brackets yourself?
@360Crank 3 жыл бұрын
Hi, yes, that's what I did.I am a fabricator, so it was straightforward for me to make. The harder part was figuring out the locations and brackets in the first place, but it really comes down to your own comfort level with tools. As a side note, the main thing on the electrical side is to run the air horn electrics in parallel, in other words, leave the original horn wired up and run the leads from it to the switch side of the relay. This will keep the CANbuss from throwing an error code. If you do go ahead, you will love it! It is LOUD!

Every year like the Mission Swallows of Capistrano my friends and I would venture out to Laguna Seca to see the yearly M/C Road Race spectacle. Being a King Kenny fan my friends and I were blown away by Steve Baker's breaking abilities keeping his rear wheel about one inch off the ground when coming into the last corner before the straightaway. These were the days where you could park and camp anywhere on the track, the moment word got out Steve Baker was going to be at Laguna Seca we knew to be there 2 days ahead at that dusty dirt hill to camp out or miss out on all the Steve Baker braking circus.. Steve was a pioneer, which is now common. I always admired Steve Baker. Sincerely Dan
@360Crank 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the great story. Although I grew up near Mosport, I didn't have the sense to follow road racing; MX just seemed more accessible. But I knew Steve was something special (massive understatement) even then. At the Yamaha Motor Canada HQ in Toronto, I not only got to sit on one of his bikes, but I held a handful of titanium screws that Bob Work was going to install to replace the regular screws in the engine cases and elsewhere. At that time, titanium was only something you read about in magazines. As a neophyte mechanic, this seems like a big deal. Now they make mundane things like eyeglasses out of the stuff. thanks again for recounting your story. Great memories!
