Thank you so much for uploading this video, I had to open the gearbox to replace the output shaft and I really wanted to do it myself, I just followed your videos step by step, finished assembling, fired up the bike and went for the first test ride yesterday! (23 Oct) The bike behaved perfectly.👍From South Africa F650GS Dakar 2001

Love the new intro, shows just how much of a great motorcycle mechanic with excellent knowledge with all bikes and covers them in just as much detail you do here in all his videos" super guy as I've meet him in person.

Very nice tutorial! Thank you for being thorough with the assembly process. My gs650 Sertao has a rough time switching gears. I'm preparing myself for a bottom end overhaul.

These 650's seem to have quite a few snap their output shaft at the same location. Mine has snapped right on that spot. Thanks for the vid

Hi! First of all, AMAZING VIDEO. Anyway, I bought a F650gs and the starter started spinning 'freely'. Ordered a new bendix gear and the assembly. Opened the side cover and my idle gear seems to be missing the axle, the sleeve and the washer! Is the axle something that just hammers on or do i have to open the other side of the engine up too? Couldnt figure that part out by watching this. Also, i havent been able to locate the part number for the axle. Any idea where i could source one?

Hi Thank you I'm glad you liked it Check out my other videos on this engine I'm sure i covered it in one of them. I cant be 100 % without watching the vids but i think that the shaft and the gear can be taken out seperately

@@motorcyclefixer found the sleeve and axle from a bike at local breakers. For the washer. Its available at BMW for order, but I just popped an axle shim that had the correct internal diameter and thickness there. Back up and running. Cheers!

Nice build! My bike is having problems with shifting in any gear higher than 2nd when warm, when cold all gears work. Do you know what could be the cause of this?
@tomteria7 ай бұрын
Wow, how well explained everything! In my case, my first gear jumps to neutral if I don't have it pressed. What do you think is the problem? Maybe is it possible to solve it by changing the spring? Thank you for your time, you have earned a subscriber

Thank you very much It could be that the spring tension isn't enough Have you checked the groove that the detent wheel sits in If the groove is worn the wheel may not sit in it correctly

Hi, can you advise if the rubber grommet which goes through the alternator cover (with wires in it) needs a sealant and if so, which type? Thanks!
@motorcyclefixer10 ай бұрын
Hi you don't really need sealant, but if the rubber has shrunk / gone hard it could leak I suppose I don't normally put sealant on them but you could put some silicone engine gasket around it if you want. It wouldn't do any harm

Hi I need to replace the Clutch Actuation Shaft along with all the bearings and seals in the Clutch housing on my 2003 Dakar, do you have a video on how to remove the bearings ? Thanks

Hi Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I was contemplating whether or not to take my engine back apart to do it. I'm sorry I decided I just have too many jobs at the moment I hope you get it sorted M

Hello, I have a question. When changing the clutch, I saw that the crankshaft has looseness to the sides, is this normal?
