Hypermotard Is GOOO!!! | The Project Concludes

[@nathanwhitley3358]

One of the OG KZbinrs and an OG hyper built to absolute perfection, what’s not to love. Always appreciate your passion chopsie, it’s an inspiration to see you enjoy it like a joyful kid.

[@LambChopRides]

I appreciate that Nathan 🙏

[@tigerzero9939]

This bike is incredible. It looks better and better the more I look at it.

[@luddite6239]

Regarding your stiff gear shift, if it's still a problem after you're back on regular oil, consider these things: 1. Do you have any clutch drag? With the engine warm but switched off in first gear, can you push it along easily with the clutch disengaged? If not, maybe the clutch needs further bleeding. 2. You fitted an Oberon slave I think? That gives a lighter pull at the expense of some lift. So if it's dragging despite a good bleed, consider your clutch pack. If your new clutch stack height is a bit higher than optimum, then the clutch may not be fully disengaging. You could always swap back to the standard slave, just to see if that makes a difference. (By the way, my 1100 Monster has rearsets and an Oberon slave and the gear change is super slick - much better than standard.) 3. As the engine's been rebuilt, the gear change selector arm has been removed and replaced. It can be adjusted a few millimeters fore and aft but needs to be precisely centred to ensure smooth shifting. It lives under the alternator cover and might be worth investigating if all else fails. Enjoy!

[@LambChopRides]

I will try those tips thanks 👍

[@darylclifford]

Have i been following you for years now Chops? Bring on many more !!

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks Darryl 👍

[@anthonychambers3348]

Love to see your face when you crack the throttle in second and it pops straight up. Mine done it with a filter and exhaust let alone all that..

[@SteveBrowner]

Roll on next summer 👍 the oil analysis will be an interesting topic.

[@steveparish9210]

You’re certainly conscientious. Wondered how you got it started again, under seat exhaust will be cool though the exhaust you have looks good. Beautiful bike glad it’s coming together so well

[@gordonatkins9135]

Fours years I’ll never get back! Joking, loved every video Chopsy….enjoy

[@LambChopRides]

Haha 😄

[@ChrisMcEvoy72]

Never get bored of hearing that sound. What a beauty! Fascinating insight into the running in process after a rebuild too. Looking forward to what that custom exhaust looks like and you finally being able to give it some beanage.... 😎

[@lucatarchi7713]

Probably one of the best looking Hypermotard! Congrats!!!

[@dukerider0319]

Good work mate glad you got the teething problems figured out. Looking forward to seeing how the mapping goes! Follow Hypomotard rider!

[@KelvinChilvers]

So pleased to hear all is well with the bike. Looks fab

[@seanfavouritesongswithkayb9868]

Hopefully there will be more Hypermotard content going forward on your excellent channel , my favourite motorcycle channel for whatever that's worth 🙂👍

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks buddy much appreciated 👏

[@redleadervfr-v4906]

Well done chops you have done a brilliant job buddy. The bike really sounds sweet and no strange noises and it look’s amazing too. You are underestimating yourself buddy the bike is going to be perfect just can’t wait for the Dyno 👍

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks 👍 😁

[@tonyciriello6872]

Analog rules !! On motorcycles and music.

[@lordgibbness]

Hey chops, can you check all your gear shift pivots are 90° turns, as that helps with mechanical advantage.

[@crnamrlja]

Oh, man. What a magnificent machine...Hat off! *I had the same exact Escort 1.4i until 7 years ago :)))

[@FoxtrotOscar9]

Nice work Chops! Quality bike and project overall!

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks buddy 👍

[@lukethompson3750]

Been soooo looking forward to seeing the first proper ride out on the Hyper, what an achievement! With regards to the stiff gear change, I had the exact same problem on my 2007 Hyper and the reason for it was the ‘selector claw’ was not aligned properly. Page 455 on the PDF manual shows how to align this 👌🏼 If this is the problem, when tightening the gear selector mechanism back up make sure to use the correct loctite and torque both bolts to their exact spec!

[@LambChopRides]

OK fantastic Luke 👍

[@MrAndrew1953]

❤ Congratulations- your perseverance with this project is amazing- above and beyond most mere mortals. A unique bike you can’t buy off the rack 😅.

[@LambChopRides]

Thank you Andrew 👍

[@gavd6726]

Hope it's the end of the issues. The bike is stunning. Well done Chops. 🤝🏼🏍️🥳

[@Wats1984]

What a sorted looking & sounding machine! Enjoyed following this build series from the start! Good work chopsy! 👍

[@ThisOldGuy3]

I recently traded my 2022 R7 for a 2018 Hypermotard 939 SP and I am very happy with it. 🤘😎🏍

[@Boxer4ever]

13:50 that LC500 should always be recognised. I would love to do 1100S or SP rest mod

[@creedm3040]

Awesome video! I love that bike. Beautiful for sure. The twin exhaust idea is brilliant. That will do it. I like the common sense in the oil changes and analysis. That will ease your mind. Looking forward to more on this. Best!

[@jasonking4209]

I hear you should be giving it a little beans while running it in. I watched a Cycle World podcast where they discuss in detail how an engine should be ran in. I've been here through the whole build series by the way!! Just a refresh! Lol

[@martinp1539]

Run it in like you're gonna ride it is my advice. Manufacturers just want you to go easy on new bikes cus of the brakes and tires

[@LambChopRides]

Yeah I'm changing oil now at 300 miles and going semi with more beans 😁👍

[@alf9638]

CHOPSEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY - Been waiting for this since all the teasers in the SUPERMOTO build back in the best-forgotten covid days. You've done it, woah, end of an era lol well done.

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks Alf 👍

[@tigerzero9939]

Love the bike. Hopefully you bring it back on the channel even if it is not a full length video.

[@LambChopRides]

Oh it will be back don't worry 👍

[@tigerzero9939]

@@LambChopRides Great! I ran Motul 300v oil and had effortless yet positive gearshifts. I could upshift/downshift with no clutch just by rolling off and back on the throttle. Also, I loved the strong engine braking so I didn't switch to slipper clutch.

[@stevecade857]

She a beaut. I love the classic Ducati font on the tank. It actually looks modern to me. You had better get some PPF on that carbon fibre before it gets scratched just like you did with the H2.

[@project618]

Looks really good for a 09' that carbon makes it pop. A nice colour on it but so you can still see the weave would be nice but the stealth look also looks really nice. Question still remains whether a Hyper could be a one bike garage still think a super sport is top of my list although these often tempt the wallet. Keep it rolling Chopsy.

[@bakedbeanzontoast9078]

Good job, now relax with a nice chilled bottle of Chablis on the patio.👍👍👍

[@RobertKehl]

I agree with the fellow about a hard break in especially since this is not a new motor its basically just a rebuild. Manufactures usually want you to be easy with the bike for the first 600 miles to let all the metal mesh with each other. In this case you’re only breaking in the piston rings. The best way to seat your rings is to do multiple heat cycles with aggressive on throttle and trying not to keep the engine running at a constant speed for too long. So basically ride it like you stoled it. Let it cool down. Repeat ride it like you stoled let it cool down a few more times. After about three to four times your rings will be properly seated. Now you can ride it race it or just put it around.

[@martinp1539]

Run it in like you're gonna ride it is my advice. Manufacturers just want you to go easy on new bikes cus of the brakes and tires

[@DiagJez]

In any case, you're only breaking in the rings.

[@alfarks1]

Bloody hurrah! Love this build, and been waiting for it to be finished for years Chops..! You were getting close to giving Binky a run for its money there mate.. 😁 Worth the wait though, looks amazing.. can't wait for what's next, hopefully a keeper!

[@brianrainey2739]

Good luck Chops! At least you have the 690 when you’ve got all your sumo gear on and this thing won’t start! 😆

Thank you kindly sir 😁👍

[@ragerider6283]

Great vid & great to see the Hyper up & running. Looks stunning & can't wait until it's run in & you can give it the beans!

[@LambChopRides]

You and me both! Thanks buddy

[@luddite6239]

Great to see the Hyper finally running smoothly. I've had my Ducati Monster oil analysed by Millers and they're really quick - I got a full breakdown of the oil emailed to me exactly seven days after I put the sample in the post. I'd definitely recommend this service in your case with a rebuilt engine or also if you've just bought a second hand bike so you can check on the health of the motor. (Maybe get the R1 analysed at the same time.)

[@LambChopRides]

OK good news 👍

[@kimetogo]

Great it passed the MOT and looks great, a lot of work but worth it. Cheers

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks 👍

looks absolutely stunning should be well happy m8

[@Mark........]

Oh don't worry chops we'll start whining when is the zxr going to be finished lol , well done bud the Duke looks awesome

[@rainbowchaser9604]

You really should give it a bit more throttle when running it in. Repeated hard pulls, then ease off. That's what gets the rings bedded in. Constant low rpm will do it no favours as things will just glaze, not bed in

[@LambChopRides]

Yes it's now had some decent pulls, only took it easy for 100 miles

[@BoianIliev]

Where is the promised mt 09 y-amt review Chopsie.. come on mate.. we burning.. 💪🏽👍🏽 We need to know is it worth it or should we stay with the quick shifter. Or maybe should we wait to see what the new z900 will bring for 2025.. it’s gonna be interesting. And you will be our guideline mate. The best man for the job. Doing a great job! Just like Virgil guided Dante through hell in the Devine Comedy.

[@LambChopRides]

Very soon working on it now 👍

[@TheScortUK]

Looks stunning mate, I would love me one of these as a second bike, but Wife and Funds won't permit lol

[@jamest5149]

Do another two oil analysis when you change from running in oil onto your normal use oil, you will see a change again and further reduction on wear elements. Glad you took the advice to change the oil at 100 miles but personally I wouldn’t put more running in oil back in, I would have jumped to the normal use fully synthetic oil.

[@LambChopRides]

Yeah I'm going to change now which is 300 miles and go semi synthetic

[@jamest5149]

Perfect, I was worried you were going to go too long on the running in oil, it realy is only needed for the first 50 miles to bed the rings in. Everything else is running on a film of oil so the changes are used to flush any dirt and dust from the build out as well as build greases and sealers. Two changes in quick succession are needed when ever you change oil grade or type as the additive packages don’t always play nicely together and you can see a spike in wear materials until the second change is done. See if you can get some sponsorship from the oil analysis company and a oil supplier and do a series on this…. Its a interesting topic, under reported and even less understood. Find a willing tribologist to explain the results 👍

[@WillfulThinker]

So a gunked up starter relay was the cause for the non-start issue? I'll have to remember that, as my HM1100S does that about 1 out of 10 times I start it, which hasn't been enough motivation for me to troubleshoot. But if it gets worse, I'll know where to look first. \m/

[@LambChopRides]

Yes absolutely 👍👍

[@mrstatictunes]

Love this bike.

[@10secondsrule]

This sounds just like my s2r of the past. Lovely restoration but I’ll never understand an open clutch and other mismatched colour anodised bits 😳 too much of Lewis Hamilton edition for me. I’d probably paint subframe red. However that’s not my bike so I do enjoy you liking it and that’s what’s most important. I miss some of the rural b roads of the U.K. I’ve now left - it’s been a loooong project!
