Gixxer brahs bike, Lost in Time

I’m definitely going to give that oil filter one more crank 😂

Euphemism? Saving that for the OF content?

@gixxerbrah don’t want another oil leak on the highway

[@TheGardenSnake]

stop it

You lucky you got detailed folks around you. 🤌🏾🫶🏾🙏🏾

Jake you can use a zinc or marine grease thin coat on pins of calipers which should allow penetration of zinc into the metal pins. Otherwise this was a fine job man. As for R6 calipers. Steel braided lines would have been enough for Tokicos and a better master cylinder lever.

[@MrVman93]

PSA: dont be like Jake. Take pictures of everything when you pull it apart because we all know damn well you're going to get distracted and come back a month later and forget everything.

I have a completely disassembled ktm 125sx that I can't remember how to put back together. If I took pictures before I ordered all the bottom end bearings, it would be much easier to reassemble.

well not to spoil the joke but I know how it goes together, it's just a bit of fun for the video

[@edwinarmstrong9175]

An electronic rectifier takes the AC power from the generator & through a bridge rectifier changes the AC power & changes it to pulsed DC power. Then through different combinations of capacitors & resistors recgulates a specific DC voltage to give the bike the voltage power that it requires to run all of the other electronics, since they all require a specific DC Voltage to run properly. I learned this from DeVry to become an Electronics Technician. I have worked in electronics for 40 years. Most equipment I work on has one built in to convert AC power from your wall outlet to create the DC power that most all electronics use.

[@TheGardenSnake]

you're a wizard

[@edwinarmstrong9175]

@@TheGardenSnake thanks, but not a wizard, just an Electronics Technician from DeVry who actually uses the knowledge they taught me for my work some 50 years ago.

Pretty sure the seat just holds the battery in on these, when I crashed mine the battery completely ejected itself, I’ve got a zip tie holding it in now though 😂

sorry to hear about you're dog bro..

[@BATTLEMAD241]

I cant be the only one that thinks Jake has stocks in WD40 because of how much he uses and how often.

[@Arcticun]

As a mechanic, if you do mechanic shit a lot, you will have a stock of WD40 laying around along with some investments into it honestly. It's too good.

[@TheGardenSnake]

I buy it by the gallon, not kidding

[@BATTLEMAD241]

I meant that you have invested in the company😂

[@Arcticun]

@@BATTLEMAD241 In my defense, I did read that comment at like 4 AM. But yeah, fair, though I'll stand by the fact that anyone doing mechanic shit will have a physical stock of WD40 that's pretty large. Shit is just magical.

[@LightlessSpider]

Thank you Jake the brahs love you!

[@Ryan_H22]

Been waiting for this, thanks!

[@3GingerCats]

the Vacuum brake bleeder... here's a tip. I do this almost daily, because, well I'm paid to do it. If you have the line going straight up off the nipple, (and then go back down to the receptacle) in that first part, any air can only go up, and fluid can only go down (back to the calliper) so you know for sure you have all the air out when you get a solid line of fluid, there's no air getting back in because it goes straight Up hill. I did this first on a very stubborn car when there was nobody free to help by pumping the pedal while I worked the vacuum (like I said this was a stubborn car) and this simple trick of having the line going uphill before going down to the receptacle makes the job much easier and faster. but I'm still not going to share it with the old guy at work who thinks he knows better and takes twice as long and has to do it again over and over again until he either runs out of fluid or actually gets the result he is looking for.

[@mayettamoto4030]

the regulater rectifier regulates the voltage and converts ac to dc voltage now love me lmao

[@RyanWithAviators]

Regulator rectifier uses a bunch of diodes to make the sine wave voltage that the stator creates and makes it into a DC voltage that the bike can use for stuff. It also regulates it to less than about 15 volts.

[@christopherjohnson3377]

1:41 Jake's Dad skills go into action.

[@RoughRyderr]

You can put tinfoil over the headers to keep the oil from getting on them..

[@richardblom9211]

The bike wizard needs to make more appereances

[@jauken83]

Whenever I hear "darkweb" I always hear it as the skids in Letterkenny.

[@garrettarney2903]

The regulator rectifier changes ac voltage to dc voltage and keeps it at proper charging voltage on most bikes around 14.2 volts

[@Blitz6804]

8:06 I absolutely hate having to do anything with batteries! My bike was assembled with the battery in wrong, and I was panicking as I was trying to get it fixed. Not to mention all the times I've nearly zapped myself when trying to jump-start the truck at work. (I fused the two battery clamps together once... that was fun!)

[@Gabe-tt2jj]

was waiting for this one 🙏🙏

[@__Max-oe6zm]

Consider doing another bike build series like you used to do, those were great to watch

[@LCFTW93]

"What's holding the battery in" the seat? lol

[@8alakai8]

you can aluminium foil around the headrs to guide the oil over it and not get it on the headers

[@purpledude5526]

Finally , man , been waiting forever

[@casey360360]

Well, all I’ve learned from the comments is that no one actually has a solid understanding of how a rectifier works.

"these guys should all be put on an island somewhere" speaks volumes

[@TheGardenSnake]

this video was over several months of filming, look how often my clothes change

[@alexsevo6]

Best content ever ! More of this !

[@thinkdunson]

a rotating magnetic field generates an AC voltage. a _rectifier_ converts it into a DC voltage. and then the _regulator_ does exactly what it sounds like... regulates that voltage to keep it at the level needed on the bike.

[@linksgarage1985]

The way of the Bros. The regulator rectifier converts the AC power into DC power. And then Warren Gs that shit. Regulates the fuck out of it. 💪🏼

[@Cyan25]

been waiting patiently for this one

[@Right-Handed_Neutrino]

We got to get you some quality stands, my man.

[@seano220]

You’re supposed to pull in the clutch on gixxers to start them. If the clutch switch wires are tied together you are losing power from it.

[@TheGardenSnake]

oh he's got some goofy switch on there I'm fixing. I'm gonna do this clutch switch mod I did on my MT-07.

[@tweaked9721]

I just peeped the second video and then this gets uploaded w

[@joshmahurin9166]

Vaseline in the filter doesn't stop it from a dry start 😂 always put oil!!

[@3GingerCats]

you gotta put oil on there... no you don't, there already a shit ton of oil on the surface you're sealing against and it's going to spread itself all over the rubber anyway. because clinginess and rotation... (unless the area was so grubby that it needed cleaning, but a finger smear is all it needs) you do it to get the torque right, not to make it seal, the only time a filter will refuse to seal is if the thread is out of alignment with the rubber seal (and yes I have seen that, and it's easy to spot while you are winding it on) and secondly, to all the people who claim you must fill the filter with oil... when it is on its side, or upside down like most NEW vehicles, you simply can't do that. and it doesn't hurt the engine on those upside down filter engines! and they use similar pumps pickups and bearings... just start and let idle until you hear the sound change to normal, then switch off and check the level after a couple of minutes (so the oil has time to drain back into the sump)

[@Minionmoto529]

JAKE.......... FOCUS!!!! :)

[@MaxMoneybagsVT]

If it doesn't relate to moving or stopping, the torque spec is for the lord to decide, that's what I always say

you know why his oil filter is hella cranked prolly from that crash he had where his oil filter came loose, after i saw that video i went out and immediately cranked my filter a little more.

[@thinkdunson]

15:04 there is one thing you can do about it. just make a little aqueduct out of tin foil to channel the oil where you want it.

[@MOUNTAINBROTHERACTUAL]

You should be saying "CLICK" out loud when you hit proper torque spec with the impact. Otherwise, they're not torqued down proper.

[@jessefpv9217]

Hey Jake I bought the Same Front Calipers as what you put on. My seems to need spacers. I was gonna put them on my 2005 Zx-10R. Could you Maybe tell me what I would need to Mount them Correctly? What type of spacers I would need if I need any at all?
