Service Front Fork - OIL and OIL SEALS / TransALP 650 - S.3 Eps.17

[@nomadmotorcycle]

Hello. Love you videos, excellent job. Keep it up. As you do a lot of kilometres with a Transalp i would like to ask you a couple of questions regarding the bike, since i recently got one. I done 2,5K kilometres and noticed a drop in oil level to about slightly less than a half of the measure. Does yours consume oil? And what brand of oil do you use? Also what is your average fuel consumption riding with a passenger? Thank you very much.

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋thanks for watching and appreciation. 😁🤙 I'm glad you recently bought a Transalp. To start somewhere with the story... Unfortunately, many Transalp owners do not use these motorcycles properly. They think the TransALP is a speed motorcycle or compare them to the 1000cc. And they start going on the highway with them at 140km / h with two people, a lot of luggage, etc. This also automatically leads to oil consumption. This Transalp was bought by my brother in 2005, with 2147km on board. From 103,000km the motorcycle is with me. Today he has 159,000km without having done anything on the engine, not even an adjustment of anything. I change the oil somewhere between 6 and 9,000 km. For many years I used MOTUL 10W40, 5100, Semisynthetic. But it started consuming oil after about 4-5000km. So I decided to switch to Eneos 10W40 Syntetic for about 3 years. At an oil change fill about 400ml. I buy 3L, I put 2.6-2.7L in the engine. And after about 4,000km I complete those 300-400ml and go on until it drops to a minimum, then I change it. So I could say that at 6-8,000km it consumes less than 800ml of oil. But the secret is that this motorcycle has always been used up to 100km / h. This Transalp 90% of his life was with two people. But we always went well and gently. We didn't believe us in the rally. The average consumption is 5-5.3L / 100km at this rate. 😁🤝

@@LutziferVideographerVow. Thank you a lot. Mine has only 46K on the clock. It was ridden a very little for the last few years, now i started travelling with it. Sometimes i am riding more aggressively so that explains it. I also used MOTUL 10W40 5100. I just noticed the consumption of around more than 7l when i drive over 100 kph. But i have Mivv exhaust so i will try to fiddle with carb. Thank you very much for replying. Keep up the good job. If you need some recommendations for traveling in Bosnia, there are a lot more beautiful places you cam visit. Especially the off road terrain type.

nice job, just did mine same home made job on the ground .......... good cleaner is also: Fuel with compressed air it dries quick.

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋thanks 😁🤝 my friend did a great job. 😁🤙 Now It's better the front fork. It feels more stable. Especially in curves 🙏☺️

Thanks bro' 😁🤙

🤜🤛Thx Nuri!

[@iloveacceler8476]

Hello. Nice and handful video. How did you push the new fork seals in the fork? I don't see that in the video? And which kind of cleaner did you use?

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋🏻‍♂️ I don't know why we didn't film the moment when he puts on the new seals... For some reason we made a pauze with filming and when I realized that I didn't film de proces, it was too late. 😬 Honestly, I don't know exactly... And the cleaner is some kind of break pads cleaner...

[@iloveacceler8476]

@LutziferVideographer okay, thank you for the fast response. And that part would be handy.😅 But thanks anyways. 🙂 Have a great further travel in Norway.

[@LutziferVideographer]

@@iloveacceler8476 we are home from August 22 🤟😁. It was a very nice trip. 50 days and 11600 km 🙏☺️

[@mikko3369]

Nice video! I just changed the front oil for my 650 alp at yesterday and it looked as bad as yours

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋 In my case it was normal to be so bad because it was the original oil from 2001. At 155.000km. 🙏☺️

[@mikko3369]

@@LutziferVideographer Well mine was original from 2005 with 60.000km and looked the same :D

[@LutziferVideographer]

@@mikko3369 😁🤝 now It's fine. More stable in corners 😁🤙

[@damyanexssessgeorgiev6]

Thanks for the video, about to change my forks oil as well, only question is if you can tell me the parts you ordered inside?

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋🏻‍♂️ I don't exactly to tell you. I ordered the parts from a local bikeshop. And they know what code to order. 😁🤝

[@ionutepuran6123]

The brake calipers hanging by the hoses, chrome tubes on concrete, not good! I wonder how were the bushes and new seals driven in...

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋 don't worry 😁🤝 It's everything fine! 🙏☺️

Next is to make a video about a leaky water pump mechanical seal replacement.

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋🏻I had no problems with the water pump... 🙏☺️

[@HanzelikR]

@@LutziferVideographer Mine is leaking badly, in the winter 2022-2023 I'll dismantle and try to fix-it.

Hello 🙋🏻‍♂️ Thanks for watching. At this motorcycle, I didn't adjusted anything. Not the valves, doesn't changed the clutch, etc. Nothing 🙏☺️ 186.000km now. 💪😎

Salut ! Știi dacă se potrivește furca de la transalp 650 la transalp 600 varianta cu dublu disc pe față ?

[@LutziferVideographer]

Salutare, teoretic da. Ar trebui să fie la fel de la cel de 650 la modelele de 600 , an 97-2000. Cel mai bine întreabă pe un grup dedicat. Cum ar fi pe grupul "Honda Transalp România". 🤟😎

Nice job ! Just curiosity, the springs were still OK ?

[@LutziferVideographer]

Hello 🙋 thanks. Yes, I think so. Why would not be ok the springs? The Oil was old and thin... 😁🤝

[@alfredferdinandsloof8399]

@@LutziferVideographer Springs tend to become soft after many years or many miles, but hey, you should be the one noticing that, if ithey are still OK, perfect!

​​​@@LutziferVideographerhow often you change the fork oil, do you have specific interval and which brand you use? Is this advanced repair for beginner? 😆

@@robrob9050 ​ hello. It was the first time in 20 years 😹👌 it was the original oil and seals from 2001 🤭 And I'm not going to change anytime soon...

La cati Km se recomanda schimb ulei in furca? Tare rau arata si uleiul din furca ta... Big up!

[@LutziferVideographer]

Salutare 🙋 mecanicii spun la aprox doi ani. Într-adevăr la mine s-a exagerat puțin 😬 a fost cel original de 21 de ani. Dar nu a curs, nu am simțit să mă deranjeze. Da, după ce l-am schimbat am simțit diferența mai ales pe curbe cu denivelări. Altfel stă pe drum...

Se puede echar gasolina para limpiar

Hello 😀 Brake cleaning spray is the best. You also have pressure and it doesn't affect anything else.
