Great job again Old Mechanic . Thankyou

As always I love the video. Look forward to part 2 of this job. I am getting my parts in tomorrow for the rear brakes and all of it is OEM so I hope not to have a problem. I will let you know. Be well and be safe. Randy.

Another very good video👍 Yes, it happens that aftermarket spare parts are both cheaper and higher quality. Thank you very much for the suggestion. 17:35

Thanks for posting! I have a 700gs. Why not just use that grinder to cut the chain all the way in two rather than using a special tool to remove the pins?

[@abitofaviation]

Super cool! Thanks for the tutorial :-) And the remote control is cool!

Note that the rubber cushioned front sprocket does not function at all like the cush drive on the rear sprocket. There is NO torsional damping. Rather the rubber sides are there to quiet the chain noise when the chain engages the sprocket. The side plates of the chain land on the edge of the rubber cushion before the chain settles into the sprocket teeth.

Hey Old Mac. Hope you are well. I got the parts in for the rear brake master cylinder. All from Japan. The junk from China was not good at all so I got the OEM parts. Came in what looked like 100 parts. Put it all together and it looks like it is working fine. They are not locking up any longer. Hopefully it stays that way. Tomorrow I will make an adjustment or 2. Again thank you for the videos you put out. They really help inspire us. Look forward to the next video my friend. Thank you. Randy

[@TheOldMechanic]

Hi Randy good yo know that your Vulcan brake is good again ! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@randyburgos]

@@TheOldMechanic Thank you Sir. Be Safe. Randy

[@LouisStreet]

I think that the red colour is the oxidized metal that comes off the chain as very fine particles once the o-rings have gone and the chain is really wearing quickly.

[@TheOldMechanic]

I think your right mate ! Rusted metal shavings, mix with grease..

[@maartenmeer7943]

Bedankt voor de tutorials. Door u ;) durf ik het aan dit zelf te doen. Wat kan u aanraden als alternatief voor bel ray lubricate lube? Het is nergens meer verkrijgbaar... Ik hoor het graag van u. Mvg, Maarten

@@TheOldMechanic Hi Old Mechanic, do you know if I can use a JT chain jtc525x1r3116rl as replacement for the OEM chain in the BMW f700gs ?

[@FDVZ33]

Do you think petrol is appropriate to clean ? isnt it better to use diesel fuel?

[@jordyhartkamp9116]

Beste Old Mechanic. Bedankt voor alle nuttige en leerzame video's. Ik heb zelf een Bmw f800gs adventure van 2015. Ik heb soms 2 problemen. Als de motor op bedrijfstemparatuur is dan wil hij soms niet makkelijk schakelen naar de 4de of 5de versnellingen. Dan moet ik soms 2x de koppeling inknijpen om hem toch in die versnellingen te krijgen. Het is net of hij die versnellingen niet pakt. Dit doet hij alleen als de motor erg warm is. En soms verlies ik druk op de achterrem. Na een paar keer remmen komt de druk wel terug. Ik heb nieuwe vloeistof erin en geen lucht in de leidingen. Ik heb alleen geen motoscan app om de abs te onluchten. Kan je me verder helpen met advies voor beide problemen? Alvast bedankt. Mvg. Jordy

[@TheOldMechanic]

Hoi Jordy, voor het slechte schakelen zou ik eerst er goede olie in doen Castrol power rs 10w40 geen vol syntheet, daar ben ik persoonlijk niet zo'n fan van. Voor het probleem met de achterrem moet je toch echt de motoscan app, en de hardware aanschaffen hoor. Succes 👍🏻👊🏻

[@jordyhartkamp9116]

Bedankt voor het advies. Ik heb Motorex 15w50 erin gedaan zoals voorgeschreven op de site van Motorex en op advies van een bmw garage. De olie zit er pas 600 km in. Dus er zit dure en de goede olie in. Ik zal aan de slag gaan met de motoscan zoals jij hebt laten zien in je filmpjes.

[@Baltha1710]

Je bedoelt waarschijnlijk "Imperial System" ipv "Metric System" ? ;-)

[@gordonhenderson1708]

Hey Old Mechanic. I enjoy your videos, especially the ones regarding BMW boxers and/or the MotoScan app. You use toilet tissue to wipe up fluids, oils, grease, and other sludge. How do you dispose of the oily, greasy tissue? We've been told that 1 drop of oil will contaminate a large volume of landfill. I re-use rags that I can leave at my oil recycling shop once they're too filthy. The shop then deals with used oil, filters, and containers, responsibly (I hope).

[@TheOldMechanic]
