HDS 91 - CLUTCH lies

[@GrumpsBarn]

Always a fantastic idea to note exactly where 6 identical bolts came from....😂

[@scottfinlayson5446]

He's never taken a clutch apart before.He sounded like David Attenborough describing the wonders of nature .

[@BenTV73]

I've gotten so used to you wearing the ginger wig it looks weird without it. 😆😆

[@keithf8890]

Nah,he just looks weird.

[@ianhoyle8459]

..But why oh why doesn’t he go “full retard” and wear the red and white stripped pull over and yellow jumpsuit?

[@forevercomputing]

Jennies Garage is a good channel. He does a lot, filmed by his lovely wife. He fixed a slipping clutch by just cleaning and roughing up the solid plates.

[@sidwainhouse]

Manufacturers applied thread lock to after market fasteners they never fitted, amazeballs. 😂

[@kurtpeil8433]

2009 to 2019...its 20 years old😂😂😂 definitely a long time...the struggle is real

[@chrispomphrett4283]

A clean and a set of OEM springs was probably all that he needed...

[@carlopitti7500]

To Del lying comes as natural as putting powertools in a vice, hitting everything with everything else, being a victim or breathing air

[@alanrichardson1672]

The yellow chromate screws securing the clutch cover have drilled heads for locking wire, surely that's not standard although Harley's are proper bone shakers!

[@marcellucassen8033]

57:00 It's an old mechanics trick, grease on the gasket, you can grease both sides and the gasket won't stick permanently to the engine OR the cover.

[@dylancrow7919]

9:53 I stopped doing that card board stuff. I put my highest bolt down as #1 and last them out in a straight line working clockwise. If you follow the same rule every time, you don’t even have to think about it.

[@alanrichardson1672]

I reckon the engine oil is dark due to clutch burn. The previous owner probably thrashed the tits of it before selling on, nice!

[@ironman8193]

Oh man ,,I'm laughing out loud in bed,,," if you put them together dry," DEL BOZO'S GARAGE 😅

[@Wayne1977]

He did lever it off on a dowl, he pointed it out the second after you said don't 😂

[@terryatkinson899]

Reason Del works on his own is nobody else could stand the bullshit 😂

[@derxKai]

42:51 he sounds like the Secretary of State from idiocracy "brought to you by Carls Jr."

[@killzone32]

Did you say in a recent video you have a good way to make the gold coating of fork outers look like new again? My forks are currently in bits and would be nice to clean them up a bit

[@johnriley9214]

Hylomar has always been in a yellow tude never seen it in white/blue tube in 55 years.

[@BungleBare]

Also, why “use up the old stuff” when the “new stuff” is in a half-empty tube? I’ve been dicking about with cars since the late ‘90s and Hylomar blue has ALWAYS been in a yellow tube in that time, and the first partial tube of it I had was given to me by a neighbour and probably at least five years old then (meaning it was produced, at the latest, in the early ‘90s). Conclusion: the “old tube” was at least 25 years old when Del used it in the video or, more likely, he’s used something inappropriate instead, realised, and instead of getting a new gasket and starting again with Hylomar he left the mystery gunk in place and tried to just explain it all away. Either way, it was the wrong stuff to use, and would probably fail in no time. Maybe this explains why the ‘bike has only covered 1500 miles or so in the past few years; laid up constantly by a never-ending stream of reliability niggles caused by Del’s “expertise”, until the last owner just had enough of it and sold it on again?

[@rumien1383]

Great video to enjoy with a coffee ( NOT from wemoto) .😊

[@megaidiot]

now i know, twist torque over visual weight is measured in beef

[@Ivan-gm7zb]

Matt really really stupid question but what type of torque wrench would you use for casing bolts with torque settings between 10nm and 14nm? I have a beef 🍖 torque wrench already but was wondering if you would use that or would you have a small version a little like a push bike type? Thanks in advance 😊

[@dirtygarageguy]

What that does low end torque

[@bradleybatt1401]

Teng are all I use. I have three. 1/4" drive, 3/8" drive and 1/12" drive. All with angle-indicators too. NEVER buy a cheap torque wrench. Teng are like 40quid or close dependant on model.

[@Ivan-gm7zb]

@@dirtygarageguy yes as I have snapped the odd small alloy bolt before with my 1/2 inch one 😭 Thanks in advance ☺️

[@GTMarmot]

He absolutely did not use Hylomar Blue. He clearly used black RTV. Hylomar Blue is like the old Colgate Blue Minty Gel. It's a transparent light blue. It's completely different.

[@alanrichardson1672]

Delballs didn't explain that not all bikes have a "wet" clutch, I have bikes with wet and dry clutches.

[@alexroca6981]

No bikes have a "wet and dry clutch", it's one or the other.

[@inevespace]

24:05 I have it(on inner boss) on my bike. But I admit that previous owner was worse than Del(he put oil into brakes instead dot4) 26:10 As I understand this catching in grooves cause only excessive clutch drag. No full disengagement. And you can feel well even small drag. One pair of plates with slightly higher friction is enough to feel that bike wants to move. Some people fix dragging clutch by filing groves. Yes, barbarian way, but works if it was the cause.

[@TheWhisky81]

If it's a zx7r he's working on which I think it is they have a hydraulic clutch, that's how he know's its not the cable causing it to slip.

[@MrMichaelfalk]

At least he remembered to buy the right oil this time..

[@gafrers]

He put the clutches in the oil right before the "24h later" intro. Not even 24 minutes. Sepia tones has the secondary effect of helping hide the fact they didn't get any darker absorbing the oil. Delsplaning is always so entertaining. Hear that mouth go. The Hylomar trick really shows the level of lies and his audience. 57:22 "It is a product that Never Dries" 58:04 "Let it Kinda Dry" Couldn't be more opposite.

[@johnriley9214]

Matt did you do a HDS 90 I can't seem to find it anywhere?

[@Weracemachines]

also he didnt refer to direction of steel plates slide onto inner drum, and the mother of all unfixed clutch slipping issues, the pressure plate being a wear item and being worn out of spec.

[@michaeldemetriou1399]

An £8 spring set, well he got what he paid for cockeyed springs !

[@archiedentone5950]

It was slipping because the guy that bought it from him left the car oil in it that Del fillied it with when he had it

[@virtuosomuso]

why is it on the bandits they have two steels which are thicker than the rest , most of them are 1.6mm but two are 2mm and go 5th and 6th in the stack ?

[@BEYTEK]

Yeah vfr has diffrent sized first clutch friction to the rest.

[@regurkilu]

Why is the bike black now? Didn't he spray it green? What did I miss?

[@ronr6605]

Old series, b4 it went to the "artist"... so you missed Matt saying " '09 bike it is '19 "

[@shonith91]

Hey Matt i have a doubt regarding the front axle bolt on the ktm 390 duke. Why is it not like a conventional bolt and nut like in the rear? The front is this axle which goes through and then there is a smaller bolt which threads into the axle from the other side and there are 2 pinch bolts for the axle why is this specific arrangement given and not just a nut and bolt arrangement?

[@dirtygarageguy]

"Why is it not like a conventional bolt and nut like in the rear?" A nut and bolt (shaft and fastener) do one thing, clamp two things together. The whole bikes weight is transfered along with any momentum through the forks and into the axle, through the bearings and into the wheel. This amount of force would shear a arrangement like the rear, instead a large surface area is required and the direct transfer into the shaft itself. Great question.

[@shonith91]

@@dirtygarageguy thanks Matt👍

[@kacperchrusciel890]

Why do you say no to aftermarket gaskets, ive used both (non oem where they dont make them anymore) and ive never really seen a difference?

[@chasejdmartin]

First!! Just finished the ginger ninja one!!

[@goinhot9133]

lol I came from there

[@extremepowerclean]

I think he did the tiger clutch as well

[@michaelgreen4585]

A £100 on friction plates 😭 they've gone up

[@virtuosomuso]

those steels are probably warped , mine were after putting each one on a sheet of glass and using feeler gauges to check , how the hell does he know without checking them .

[@michaeldemetriou1399]

Because Delboy has a good eye for detecting warpage especially when wearing gloves and can draw a strait line freehand Have you not seen him draw a template 🤣perfect every time, he says it himself 🤣so it must be true !

[@Motoinc]

He's clutch was slipping BECAUSE HE IS USING CAR OIL

[@eddiemizen3703]

Why is righting on a wipe board 🤔 but doesn't let u read it 🤔 I no matt can slow it down but why do it what a 🐓

[@conkerman01]

They're all soggy when I'm finished with them.

[@leavemyrightsalone]

🤔 Not really the place to tell us what you did to your bird...

[@ianhoyle8459]

I think Del needs counselling now as he appears to be defensively presenting to his imagined critics rather than concentrating on a more positive and open approach to his large number of supporters. And of course there are no haters, just individuals commenting positively or negatively depending on the merits of any sound helpful advice, or obvious bullshit. 😂

[@georgenegrics4274]

Aftermarket gaskets with silicone and grease.....🤦 LT on all the cover bolts? Does Kawasaki manual say that?.... Maybe it does. R1 manual tells you to put LT on one bolt out of 9.

[@Metal2Venom]

I'd love for delbollocks to come help me and friends at santa pod when we're racing and checking clutch after each pass with lock up clutches air shift nitrous he probably wouldn't know where to start haha

[@RichardMoore-jk3ee]

Delboy you really are ...........

[@sayers_repairs]

@39:17 I thought you were impersonating Lars Ulrich😆

[@H-M-78]

Did he say anything about the order and the difference of the thickness of both steel and friction plates? I guess not

[@85RAG]

Anyone else notice the great pause moment at 9:34?

[@stevesanelli90]

Nowadays the classic Delsplaining just doesn’t happen. But then again, the shoddy workmanship is.

[@chrisyln8808]

he never tells us what the is torque setting is

[@terryatkinson899]

1 ugga dugga 😅

[@mattman3495]

I can't believe how cheap ! those plates are. What is the reason for the last plate to be offset?

[@audioorigami]

BEEF :)

[@mattblackledge9068]

Yes

[@lanceoverton5919]

2009 to 2018 is 9 yrs not 20 you div , people in glass house etc etc

[@mrmr9767]

What a load of nit picking about a lot of nothing.

[@jLkm897]

Dullboy soaking plates

[@ronr6605]

Since he refers to the workshop manual, it actually means one has to use kawasaki bond silicone sealant 56019-120 and for sure not that 40 quid shitty plates... that cheapskate! ;)

[@Ryan.90]

There is a catch 22 that the more you point it out the less he Delsexplains... Love jump cuts though where you know he's had to lose like 5 minutes of footage because he'll get called out. Wonder if he watches himself back now and Googles stuff. 🤔

[@ianhill20101]

Ebc everytime, just replace the lot spend once do it right ffs !
