You need to employ the missus to do the camera work!😂 then you'll have both hands to work. Keep it going! Nothing like a v twin.

Haha yes it would make things easier 😄

I bought up rated leads for my Pani , made hell of a difference in starting

[@PXCBIKES]

Brilliant... Yes I made better leads for my 1198 and with a good battery it fired up as quick as an I line four engine

[@aaronhughes4724]

Ive the Jonh Walker leads on my rsv mille. Fantastic upgrade

[@motorcyclegarage2307]

I have the adjusted by the Allan key, belt twist and recently the acoustic read at around 90 hz that was on a st2. Actually they all worked for me. Where the belts get very close to each other at the adjusters can be a disaster point. They can be adjusted so they rub each other and fail.

[@PXCBIKES]

Yes, they do. I think it's well known now... but I never knew this was the case in the past, but I always went with what it said in the manual to tension counterclockwise ...I don't know why many people have never read the manual

[@DesmoResto]

Wow!! 1st touch of the button!!??😮

[@PXCBIKES]

Oh yes a good little service and it springs into life

[@mojin699]

Make sure you turn the tension pulleys anti clockwise!

[@PXCBIKES]

Oh yes they shouldn't be turned clockwise at all 👌

Hi, great content ive watched the first 2 clips, looking for a project to do next year, not sure what you paid for a bike in this condition. Nowing a little bit more about this 916 would you have bought it again or looked for something that was a bit more cleaner or not so much work to undertake.

[@PXCBIKES]

Hello David yeh I do get the worst ones 🤔 but a 916 project is always worth it ...I will be selling it sometime when it's all new again I did turn down a 996 in better condition and roadworthy for 5k but with this being a 916 it's worth it all-day long .. it all depends on what your skills are to keep the cost down with a project but do the research beforehand to see what parts are available then its a good starting point...

[@Henke3000]

Good job! What are you thinking colour wise? :)

[@PXCBIKES]

Oooooo it's going to be red with white number boards and gold pinstripe like my old 748 I think

[@Henke3000]

Sounds good! Looking forward to seeing the end result@@PXCBIKES

[@legobatman8353]

Crikey, that paint job 🤔 What the bloody hell was that person thinking 🤮

[@PXCBIKES]

Yeh it's the similar mentally to women who have their lips loaded with botox

[@leeselby7980]

[@PXCBIKES]

[@leeselby7980]
