I dislike the linked brakes, the vtec and the very poor space below the seat. I also gets numb hands.

I have had success with a wool bonnet and a 2K rpm Polisher. Took about 15min on Big Wind Screen. 3M products.

Never use red coolant (G12) on these older models of BMW (e36, e46, e39 etc..) It can do some serious damage to the coolant hoses, radiator etc. Use blue coolant (G11) and mix it 50/50 with distilled water. Also after putting G11 coolant you will notice a more powerful heater. I didn't believe the mechanic at first, but after I tried this I was shocked.

I have know attachments and it gets better with time and I can get 10 car tyres sorted in less than an hour.

You can hear the bar scratching the alloy wheel and the end of the bar originally was digging into the wall of the tyre, ffs you made hard work of it

That's why every car should have steel rims. They can shuv their Alloys where the sun don't shine.

That stupid bolt behind the master cylinder, in fact that whole brake mount/ engine plate/ spring is a proper pain. After I stripped mine I welded little bars onto the bolt heads so it was easier to undo the nuts at a later date. Then I sold the heap…sorry.. bike and bought a Guzzi. At least I made it easier for the next victim.😂

I know you are ptobably done with the car but you need to check out Chase Bay for parts for the E30 upgrades

Break down the bead with big brick under tyre is the trick back of the wheel is trick

Alrite mate where did you get the lower foot rest I've just bought a mint 99 blade

I would love to have a ti with a n52 and dct.

I’ve currently got the same warning light on my Audi SQ5 with the same bitdi engine 🥲 really cba having to do this now the winter has arrived. But needs must by the looks 😪 Great video by the way too. Really informative and step by step break down. Also where did you get the gasket kits from? Audi or aftermarket? (Autodoc etc)?

hello and good luck with this lovely project😊Well I saw and understood your video very well but I just finished my swap on my bmw e30 but I have an engine that comes from an e39 m52b28 so whether I do the same thing on the electrical side or is there another modification thank you in advance.

RIP those wheel faces, i knew that wasnt gonna be pretty haha, good review though 👍

Hello, as you say very correctly, the red cable will go to the battery and the thin one, as I see, the black/green cable to the starter screw, to the connector on the green/black no. 15, what have you connected? I have e30 M10 and I have put e36 m42b18 but the cables are the same most of them. And I have exactly the same problem as you. the fuel relay does not open. thank you in advance!

Great review

Perfect tool not only for scratching and cracking your rims but also for hurting yourself. This was very easy tire as well. Try it with lower profile and it'll be a great comedy video 😅

Yep Stick to your day job....😂...but 10 out of 10 for effort

I know this probably asked a lot but how much would a swap like this cost in parts on a budget?

Rubbish design waste of time and money

i bolted mine to a heavy duty pallet and made the bead breaker wider with an old steel car rim and thicker arms on it

1. Schreck 2x Gabelschlüssel = Murkserwerkzeug 2. Innere Wulst abdrücken = Felge nach unten 99% Kratzer 3. Obere Wulst = Eisen Felgenrand bei 8:30 Ende das Reicht> Felge Kratzer 😢 Wulst?😢

why the shity music at the end dude?

Great video but shame they sent you one with corrosion on from the box, that seems a bit poor regardless of price.

I always find attaching the inner arch to the outer repair piece the awkward bit!

I've just bought a new set of PB-CF1 Dymag Carbon wheels. Would you be up for fitting the tyres for me?

Great effort and demo. But, given that tyres need changing every 2 years or so (for us), this is one of those jobs that the saving isn't enough of an incentive to stop me taking it to the professionals. Plus once you've paid for the wheel refurb to deal with all the scratches not sure you will save that much 😂.

So was this 2x 3cm steel bars per seat with 2 holes drilled 35mm apart?

A comedy guide IMHO. This type of tyre changer should be mounted solidly to the floor. Supplied tyre lever is made for steel rims. It will damage alloy rims. Use tyre paste to lube tyre to make removal and fitting easier.

I am so sorry to hear that you dropped your bike. I love these sport touring bikes and the vfr is really beautiful. I recently bought the kinda bmw version of this bike, the bmw f800gt with very low mileage, and like you, the second week of ownership I dropped it. I parked it and the kickstand lifted on its own very slowly, so I couldn't see it move before I left. I was unlucky and the clutch lever broke, also have some scratches but it’s fine. It was so annoying, and seeing yours dropped too, just wanted to share my experience. People say that the first drop is the most annoying.

Dude you are God sent haha this is the most helpful videos on vevor motorcycle shelter! Thank you sir

You're an absolute gangster for this, THANK YOU. I wanted to clean out my intake, and I got to the point of having all the intake bolts out and couldn't get her out. You helped a ton. I hope I never have to do it, but at least I know how now!

Don't know price. But application and design is poor. Keep it on the suppliers shelf and get one that doesn't ruin your wheels.

You can get a duckbill and there are loads of mods you can make to make it good

there is a trick to the rear brake cable .... the flat screw drive and lift from underneath the holding the rear cable - then lift rear cable and voila is out.... hope that i made understood! cheers

I mount mine on a chep pallet with concrete screws, if you have loads of space anchor it down permanently, I brought a sheet of 10mm rubber cut it to fit the rim mount with a slit to take out the sloppiness of wheel nut guide and protect alloy wheel, also I slide 10mm rubber over the wheel clamp and over the bead breaker otherwise you will make a mess of any alloy wheel, and the top bead on a refit is………….😂

I gotta thank you for this. I had the same issue: height. The part where you’re cutting and your partner is pressing the 4X4, gave me an idea: Layers of 4X4s. Cut 4X4s into 1 foot (30.4 ish cm) sections. Join 3 side by side, lay flat and you have a 4 inch tall square. Make lots of these. I made 12. On 4, attach a backstop. Now I can add 4, 8, or 12 additional inches at each corner. Sturdy enough for stands, for even more height.

Its how they did it years ago i guess. Ive been looking into getting one of these

I agree with the top heavy part, at speed its a fantastic machine I love it but I was getting worried about slow speed cornering

Just went to their web site now says tyre changer is out of stock.

Im chuckling at you describing the engine parts at the beginning,its like triggers brush lol ,,cheers

That's too much metal near the alloy for my liking. I can imagine it being very easy to scratch alloy wheels. Needs a static balancer too.

Try those blow up pillows to get the head off, they can lift a lot of weight.

Hello sir great Video, I just start a New project on a CB650. Could you share me the part number of the gear you changed please !? I found different model online I would like to make sure I’ll get the right one.

Can you turn the studs in the barrel

Try to get the studs out of the barrel

❤ good video

Brilliant video I've all the parts ordered to upgrade my e30. Thanks

Hi there, greetings from Spain. Proud owner of a 6th gen also. If the front of the bike feels too heavy it may have to do with the front forks. These bikes are almost 20 years old… if that is the case and the suspension is a bit off, you can take the forks for maintenance. It is something that, at least in the Spanish forum for the VFR is many a times mentioned. Hope that it helped! Btw, I’m 23 years old and I get the numb hands 😂😂😂 even with raisers

Hello, I think they look awsome, I am a bit concerned about security, how secure would these be over time? Can something be done to also increase security? I am actually a bit afraid to get under a car even though never had any problem so far with jack stands and car jack combo. Appreciated.
