How To Make A Gasket For FREE (Fixing A Slipping Clutch Part 2)

[@dariodelolmogarrido4045]

This is what I like to see! DIY using Aussie common sense

[@darrensmart5850]

I always just used a hammer and tap the cardboard around the edge of the component, it creases the cardboard and is enough to cut out easily.

done cereal box gasket on a thermostat housing that didn't leak even under pressure, doubt you'll have much issue with just a bit of oil splashing

[@xgrapher]

i don't bother with the gasket just use silicone, never had problems. it's just hard to dismantle but a couple of hits with a rubber hammer or paper cutter slits get the job done with ease. i saw a sloppy mechanic doing it once and out of desperation tried it out and never went back

[@StratoJohn]

That deserves a Blue Peter badge! 😁

Im not usually one for bikes, but this two part was really interesting so props for it! Are we getting a zero to 60 out of the bike now that it has a working clutch? lol

[@ZeroTo60Tube]

Haha you read my mind. I may have already tried an acceleration run and that may have been the main reason for sorting out the clutch 😅

[@amirulpenang2883]

At 5:14 , what oil did you use ? Car engine oil or motorcycle engine oil ? I bought nissan 10w40 semi synthetic engine oil 4L for my new ninja 250, the price far cheaper than motorcycle oil.

Loving the bike stuff, next job sort the carbs out... A thorough clean and balance needed from the sounds of it

[@dazzamac70]

It's always better and safer to do the holes first before cutting out the gasket!!! Also get yourself a cheap wad-punch set.👌

[@ZeroTo60Tube]

Yes true!

[@pugs1377]

I usually use a ball peen hammer but I have used red grease on the gasket surface and cut it out like that too.

[@jerrameggink330]

What a win 👌. So if I keep the 650 when I upgrade does that mean you'll come do a trip of the "isle"?

[@ZeroTo60Tube]

Now we’re talkin! 😎

[@ElT1greVerde]

loving the 2 wheel content! keep her sticky side down :D

[@ZeroTo60Tube]

Always 😇

[@Bricklinsv1970]

This Dudes Bad Ass!

[@Jay.Nilssen]

why not just use the old gasket for reference to draw around?

[@rotorshed4115]

So manilla folder really works? I thought it would get oil logged and wick out and then drip?

[@ZeroTo60Tube]

No it always seems to hold. I don’t know the science behind it but…. It works 👍😅

[@RS-nl2lp]

Are you using motorcycle specific motor oil? If you’re not using JASO compliant oil with a wet clutch then you get clutch slip. You probably are, just checking after seeing that bulk 20L jug of oil you’ve got.

[@Al-of3zp]

Why was all the riding scenes filmed in slo mo?

[@tonyv7589]

Haha,,is that a pissy ZXR250 with the star wars induction hoses,,had one or those 😂

[@ZeroTo60Tube]

Haha I’d never made the star wars connection before but I see where you’re coming from 😂

[@mcduvall2000]

It's not a great idea to use razor blades on gasket surfaces, you can, but you need tobe VERY careful.
