[@UncleSarkis]

You are the most underrated dirt bike youtuber. Thanks for helping everyone out Jay.

[@Scummy_shovel]

Why you be underrating jay? 😠. He is a legend

[@UncleSarkis]

@@Scummy_shovel me underrating Jay? Absolutely not! There are YTers that do nothing but bullshit about dirtbiking and have several hundred thousand subscribers. He is underrated in that sense, but I'm pretty sure people will catch on.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

@@UncleSarkis Hmmm. Well everybody in this newer generation sets up their bars like they are doing freestyle, so I don't have much hope for them. :)

[@mxcollin95]

For sure! Really appreciate everything you do for our sport! God bless buddy.

[@billross7078]

at 21:32 into the video you called the wrench a "crowsfoot", those are flare nut (or tubing) wrenches typically used on brake lines or when doing propane fittings. Crowsfoot connect to a ratchet or an extension

[@killerkork]

Great video as always!!...very detailed and super informative!! Top notch channel...been watching for years and will till the end 😎👍

[@chrisvozza6530]

Great video Jay thanks. You can never have too much tools

[@motoxmatt]

Great info! Thanks Jay!

[@3BrothersExtreme]

Tool envy is real, and I’ve got it.😍 Great video! Very informative!

[@Cl4rky]

Been trying to find the 4” asv Y handle tools for so long!! Even thought about getting a friend to try weld one up for ourselves

[@onthethrottle7104]

Lots of great information, Jay. I too love to work on bikes and not just ride them. It's a dual passion that we have, ride and tinker. Thanks for the tips, love your vids. Please keep the great videos coming.

[@TheCarlejoseph]

Great video thanks for the content!!

[@bertamusprime618]

That sprocket tool is amazing! A must for any bike with a nut or bolt holding on the front sprocket. Keep up the great work!

[@charlescummings1484]

Fantastic! Young people build up your tools and skills and keep learning bike safety, it's all a journey!

[@vankmen9530]

That’s why we are switching to Tekton tools. NO skip sizes and good luck breaking one.

[@natedogg624]

Ryobi has an impact driver that has a quick release bit that looks like it will fit what you show during your power tools segment and then you can consolidate your batteries.

[@user-gv4qt5gm1v]

Great Video! I spent 30 years as a Sawmill Millwright and spent the last 30 minutes nodding and cheering you on. Great tips!! and i've been around so to speak!

[@toddhickox4757]

Excellent advice !!!! 💯

[@thanedavis1273]

I have an electric 1/2" impact wrench. It has done everything I have asked to do.

[@XJonAye]

Great video, i get ocd about having all the sizes, when i first started buying tools i even bought standard sizes, which i almost never use, aside from 3/4

[@user-ik7kx6gb2s]

Thanks for the advice God bless

[@stevenclark8533]

Great video thanks

[@JohnHowerton137]

I use the free OEM KTM tool bag to 90% + of bike work! Figured if I ever have to fix things out riding… it feels just like working on it at home 😂

[@JohnHowerton137]

Looking forward to the fancy one that will come with my new STARK 🤣

[@timsilva1944]

Feeler guages and vernier calipers are great to have and don't need to be expensive.

[@danarussell4246]

When I got my first motorcycle (1973 Yamaha CT3) I bought a Craftsman set of metric wrenches and sockets. I think there might have been 21 pieces in the set. When I got home my dad ripped me a new one for wasting my money on metric tools. It’s been 50 years now and I still use the wrenches but bought a set of the sockets with large numbers since I struggled to see the sizes on the old ones. RIP pops!

[@paulbowman6700]

Thank you!

[@ryanrusk8247]

I gotta say Jay I love your videos and how you teach people! Tons of insight for everyone no matter how many years they've ridden or wrenched on bikes.

[@Scummy_shovel]

He always helps through e-mail to. I been wrenching and racing for 20 years. But I have reach out to him on some things that confused me and he always gets right back to me. Good dude. Good Asset to the community

[@gumpycognac4505]

I’m gona say it again, and I hope it catches on. He’s the Stacey David of the dirtbike community! lol

[@Arcflash207]

For the zip ties you can just twist them off with linesmans, but glad your not leaving sharp ends 👍

[@thanedavis1273]

I don't use T-handles anymore. I only us 1/4" drive sockets now.

[@tmk5522]

At least 3/4’s of the tools needed to turn a brand new bike into a pile of parts. IMO the service manual is the most valuable tool you can buy.

[@mattdowell775]

Steel hammers always worked best for me 😊

[@human1513]

KTM cap on the air fork shrader valve is 9 mm. Some of the air tools can now be bought in battery powered versions.

[@scotthomberg141]

Awesome video

[@Ak47nub]

mag trays are nice, but i seem to be using cup cake trays, they work super grant and u have twelve spots

[@Seday9191]

I’m not gonna lie I think I’m gonna steal a cupcake tray from the kitchen right now!! 😂 great idea

[@samscott5230]

8:17 We call those “Alternative Lifestyle” cutters now lol!

[@nicnadu0515]

4:30 a 9mm wrench is necessary for some 4 stroke bike valve adjustments

[@pappaclutch3266]

Nail clippers work on zip ties also for flush cuts

[@michieldevolder1009]

Great video! I have some work (expenses 😅) to do. Do you have a link for the tire stand drawing?

[@waynereilly9750]

After 40 years riding and working on bikes I thought I had all the tools I need. I stand corrected.

[@78raarons]

9mm for the valve cap on the wp air forks

[@fynn2533]

Hey wat brand are the aluminum packs on the bench vise

[@diyjeff1838]

One thing I would add, get 6 point not 12 point tools. 12 point are more prone to rounding off bolts and have less surface area to grab that stubborn bolt.

[@fluxcapacitor1621]

I use 6 point sockets.

[@Fermintation]

He says this in the video

[@diyjeff1838]

@@Fermintation I must have missed it.

[@love2ride0]

Milwaukee has a driver almost identical to the Porter-Cable you have

[@zoltanhorvath270]

I have a 2005 CRF 450 R and I am thinking about installing the in it since I’m getting older. Do you recommend a place to take it to? Recluse clutch.

[@Rose__L]

18mm for KTM duke drainplugs, a size often skipped in sets.....

[@leewaken5059]

Pretty comprehensive tutorial.👍🏼 However, your explanations are fine for "seasoned" mechanics but far too abbreviated for, say, newbies. Yeah, I know, just sayin'.👊🏼🏁

[@EarthSurferUSA]

My parents were the best "dirt bike parents". No, they did not buy my bikes. No, they did not drive me to the races. No, they did not expend any energy for my riding/racing. What they did was let me work on my bike in the basement every winter, and that interested me in manufacturing and engineering. No, I did not retire from pro MX and become a Fireman because I had the marketable skills of a HS drop out. :)

[@jcowen2670]

Which vac bleeder, Google?

[@johnrathjen36]

Jay what’s the link for the brake bleeder you like on Amazon? Couldn’t find it Thanks

[@dirtbiketv1]

Email Jay. Contact info in About tab or link in bio on Instagram.

[@Scummy_shovel]

2:23 my grandpa always called them a bald penis hammer. That’s such a norm in my shop knew guys are like. WTF is a bald penis hammer 😂😂😂

[@3gpinned]

Code doesn’t work at boxo

[@dirtbiketv1]

Sorry. It’s DirtBikeTV

[@Junior-fd8ux]

I wish this applied to me. Unfortunately I’m dealing with a illness that turns me into a complete tool whore… there’s never enough 🛠️💰 😮

[@fluxcapacitor1621]

Stanley dead blow hammers are junk that will disintegrate over time.

[@onthethrottle7104]

Agree...this is when Snap On is almost a must. I buy all Snap On hammers and they are the BOMB! Very good hammers that always get the job done.

[@jangoreo]

If your mechanic freind has a worn out pair of vise grips, he is not the one.

[@kurtheidelbach]

I think BOXO is overpriced and you can put a much better one together by yourself

[@andrecontois8510]

Jay those aren't Philips, i think, they're JIS. Come on. Thats why people strip them!

[@samscott5230]

9:16 Seriously?! Editing out “Dykes” again?! What’s wrong with calling them what they are? 😂

[@anthonycavalliotis8736]

He look's like Chucky.

[@longkeithdiablo8812]

Man that was a long advert..........

[@justadam1917]

Thank you for making my comment only a few minutes in and we would have been much better learning that most of those kids give you a ton of tools that you will never use

[@KARIM-db9uz]

Hi there I think the code at boxo is not working is it dbtv1

[@dirtbiketv1]

Sorry - DirtBikeTV

[@KARIM-db9uz]

@@dirtbiketv1 thanks

[@Impedancenetwork]

It's hilarious when he got to the multimeter. He said, "You can get an inexpensive one or one like this high dollar one." That meter is a POS. If you don't have a fluke 85 or 87 you have a piece of crap. Typical mechanic that knows nothing about electricity. Stick to your hammers when giving advice.

[@northernspur6282]

Wow Easy there !

[@michaelmacdonald329]

​@northernspur6282 if it ain't fluke. It ain't good
