Cameron Niemela where can I get the rubber cone washer or banjo bolt thing?

[@Hot_Brass_Media]

Man your videos are so amazing. I remember watching the videos on your crf250r like how to install graphics and all those powder coating videos. You've came so far from those videos and you make some kickass content. Every time I see you post a video I make sure to click on it and watch the whole video. Again thanks for posting sweet content.

[@CameronNiemela]

Thanks so much man!

[@saltyprocrastinator]

I personally call it the "septic tank" instead, and it's my favorite video segment. Seeing all that dirt and grime melt away is soo satisfying!

[@PendingSuspenion]

i love your videos so much i wish i was you working on dirtbikes all the time.

[@marcus1510]

Great video as usual! Learning so much! Also, I like these longer videos!

[@nastyknapp3781]

Something about your videos is just so damn relaxing.

[@mikeosvold4509]

I always replace those brass float bowl screws that strip easy with allen head screws. Great video.

[@PyroShim]

I for sure thought that radiator was done for. You work some magic! Very satisfying to watch.

[@CameronNiemela]

Thank you for watching!

[@Mealtime123]

I removed my tps electric thing from my crf450 carb when i cleaned it. Since i dont have it connected when i ride it should not be a problem to remove it right? I got a bit worried when you said that u should not remove it during cleaning!

[@CameronNiemela]

If it's not plugged in then you're fine. But I'd recommend using the TPS since it's there for a reason.

[@klubbaN]

Thanks for the reply! I wrote it on my other account. But since i bought the bike the tps where not connected and if i connect it what will happend? And if i may ask could you subscribe to my channel. I am rebuilding my Crf450 supermoto.

[@MrRichardhampshire]

Can you tell me an alternative to mag cleaner in the uk. I have tried searching for some here but with no luck. Thanks

[@patrickcasey330]

Good video - I would add that those carbs have a mid body that can be removed also . . . they have o rings / gaskets that corrode. I built my CRF250R (2004/2006) Basketcase Edition last year. The bike ran good - but there were things I noticed when it ran that did not seem right. It had a lean bog. I always had to set fuel screw rich to minimize. Long story short . . The AP was pointing at the side of the carb, which was wrong. The main jet air intake had a dirt clod in it. I replaced the AP nozzle with an Athena dual squirt, and aimed it correctly. Removed te dirt clod also. Big improvement,

[@emmasalisbury8899]

What do you clean your carberaters with? I recommend gunk works great

[@apexnight872]

Great content as always Cameron keep up the good work

[@alexandergardner2396]

Love your work and your willingness to restore parts.

[@73films73]

Good vid, my radiator is bent at the moment so this should be a pretty helpfull vid for me

[@sherri32060]

Love the video! I find it relaxing watching you work.

[@dirtbagian]

Last ride of the season I tipped my bike over and bent my rad up a little bit. I thought for sure I was gonna have to replace it. Definitely gonna try this out.

[@socks2441]

ive run a bent radiator for years, unless its so bent air cant flow through it there is no real reason to replace it apart from aesthetics. and chances are even a really bent radiator is unnoticeable.

[@buyunganjani4409]

Happy thanksgiving cameron!!👏👍

[@robertandri5919]

My o ring on the fuel screw is ripped in half should i get a new one?

[@hampton6963]

Another great production keep them coming we love them!

[@ArcticAutoWerks]

Can't wait for the 125 build!

[@socks2441]

14:19 how the hell those radiators survived is beyond me. i had a slightly bent radiator on the left side, dropped my bike with me under it, or more like wheelie launched it on top of me out of a tight turn and bent it further, it immediately started leaking. i put some $2 instant 2 part epoxy over it and it is somehow still working to this day. i would never have the courage to attempt to straighten it and hammar away at it like that though. then again, im doing a full rebuild right now, so i will have to do something about that radiator. i dont trust that resin. so maybe i can straighten it while im at it, and if i get more leaks so be it, i will either take it somewhere for them to professionally repair the leaks or i will solder it myself or something. i would consider brazing it but we are out of gas and the cylinders would fail test so cant be refilled... dang. woo. did i really just type all that. why.

[@colemorrison7925]

What electric pressure washer do you use in the blast cabinet and what hand attachment is used. Currently building a pressure wash cabinet myself. Any help? Thanks!

[@CameronNiemela]

It's a Ryobi 1800 PSI electric one. Just uses a pressure wash hose into the cabinet with a pressure wash tip.

[@teo5793]

great vid Cameron as usual! keep up this 💪 please make some how to videos, those will be interesting and useful!

[@joet6990]

"i'm gonna give this corner a little tap" then smacks it with the soft hammer lmao. awesome video, the radiators on my cr125 are pretty bent so i may give this a try.

[@huskyhucker1641]

hey when are you doing you next update video on your track? It's looking really good so far

[@CameronNiemela]

Thanks! Most likely not till spring.

[@wilmersandelius8]

Wow awsome work on the radiator 👍🏻

[@TortureTestMagazine]

Isn't that o-ring on the fuel screw supposed to be on top of the washer? It seals nothing if it's up against a spring, I thought?

[@CameronNiemela]

You are correct, this is how it was when I pulled it apart.

[@TortureTestMagazine]

Thank you for the reply. I just wanted to be sure I had it correct on my bikes

[@HOTSHOT-ls1bc]

Frickin Jim's Affordable Adventures man this is cool I didn’t know you watched this channel

[@henrik7966]

How do you get bolts that have had the heads snap off out? Someone put locktite on the bolt on my hub. Thanks in advance

ive never ordered from Rocky Mountain simply because im in the UK, BUt daaaaam, i love the way they layout the website, numbered diagram of everything, so its nice and easy to buy exactly what you need :D

[@frontlinemedia4270]

What is the rubber insert for the banjo hole?

[@CameronNiemela]

It's a tapered plumbing seal I found at Ace Hardware.

[@frontlinemedia4270]

Cameron Niemela i c. I was using ear plug, but I like your idea better

[@wyatts1537]

I think that is a Ttr125LE I had one for a while, loved the bike but then I went to a yz125 and what an upgrade!!

[@bondomingo6837]

Your editing is sooooo siicckk!!!👌🔥

[@frontlinemedia4270]

You do have a bucket of mag wheel cleaner. You're a professional cleaner for sure. Awesome tips, Cameron

[@TNTMOTO]

Cant get that cleaner in Canada :(

[@mxrider2strokebraaap54]

The washer and the o ring on the mixture screw were the wrong way round.

[@danielparret3623]

Happy thanksgiving

[@HOTSHOT-ls1bc]

How much are you going to sell those forks for?

[@HOTSHOT-ls1bc]

Cameron Niemela man wrong year and thank you for taking time to send me a link

[@lornanichol3905]

some man for one man cam love your o c d man .

[@Spotaer]

Quick question, why is a 4 stroke carburetor more complex in terms of polleys and stuff like that than a 2 stroke? Many thanks for providing awesome content everyday! ;)

[@CameronNiemela]

4 strokes kept advancing at a rapid pace while 2 strokes have been the same since 2005 or so. It takes a little more sophistication to get optimal power out of a 4 stroke.

[@b_mb4948]

My OCD can't stand bent radiator fins *O_O*

[@skylertidmore5126]

I know this isn't relative to the nature of this video's content, but I would love to see you replace a set of fork seals!!

[@ProMotoo]

Hey. When i type in my frame number from my Quad on Google there is not coming anything up. Edit: What should i do???

[@CameronNiemela]

That Raptor Guy Try using a vin lookup website

[@ProMotoo]

[@jesseweick8747]

[@thareal1318]

[@Marvelfunfaqs]

Damn you stopped on my name but didn't pick me! 😞👍

[@oscaralvarez6811]

Hello Cameron I am Oscar from Argentina, I have a Honda 250 model 2006 and I always see your videos but I would like to ask you to add subtitles in Spanish Thank you very much and greetings

[@rorybonner6484]

That exhaust is just the 304 not the r304 but awesome vids as always

[@chaserm26]

Notification squad broooo

[@astronutski]

Thank you for this cameron, just this weekend I (gingerly at first) whacked the living shit out of my CRF450 radiator, per your instruction and am happy to report it went back perfect and holds water and pressure! I would have never attempted this without watching your video! Thanks!

[@zot0532]

i wish to give you my TTR 250 for repair)

[@tacticalmosquitoeater]

probably not first but close enough cameron

[@johnnyappleseed7112]

Lmao content cop from idddubz 😂

[@joztunes69]

As long as it doesn't break and start to leak and you took your time trying to bend it back to shape, go for it, otherwise no I'd just be shopping for new or good used radiators

[@trx250rpuma4]

Yes but your silencer isn't a R304 shorty it's a 304 factory sound ther both completely different

[@ethanhanna4009]

I thought you were only doing 10 items at a time

[@SANDS78]

Wow, makes me happy that I run smokers still. That’s too much to screw with!

[@vanalstyne9834]

RM sent me $20 in RM Cash last week. Wondering if they gave more to you for spending more?

[@CameronNiemela]

Yeah, same here

[@unboxingvlogsexploringfish2684]

Why would someone dislike this video because it's a great video

[@loganosborne3922]

Shoulda kept the 450& sold the ttr
