[@650ib]

My awesome riding gloves! amzn.to/2H1oweR My Helmet Communication device: amzn.to/2BRxhIY

[@Sequel7]

650ib ask Zach if he was suppose to put oil to lubricate to new cams. I usually see it done on new engines kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2esZ6mAl5t7h80

[@orlandoducati]

I love these videos!!!!!!!

[@Sequel7]

650ib I would definitely like to see your s1000 vs @esbklife s1000 on the track. I think he out in Arizona. Check out his channel

[@Sirmellowman]

I am a machinist and I build motors like these for a living and it's really impressive to see a bike mechanic with this much understanding of the engine. Most mechanics don't have half knowledge and understanding of the insides of the bike as this dude. I really wish I had more shops near my house like this to work with/use.

[@2heavy4udude]

Sirmellowman start a go fund me and build you a shop. Or put together a business plan for a shop and find an investor. The bike community need more mechanics like you and zack. 👍🏼

[@SmokeNYC]

Sirmellowman I'm not a mechanic, but I knew from day one he was a awesome mechanic.

[@bradkister79]

I need to watch this one more than once for sure..Great video!!

[@clearlight1242]

can anyone help me - i have a 2012 r6, im tryna install the camshafts. there are marks on the intake and exhaust that are supposed to be level w cylinder head - whenever i line them up, and go to install camshaft caps, the camshaft sprockets move and the lines on them are no longer level w the cylinder head - how do i fix this, should i install the tensioner (i have a manual one) in before installing camshaft caps? the camshaft doesn't sit in fully straight too. im thinking about doing that after seeing some of this vid

[@jackoutofwack]

Seriously shocked me too dude kicks ass

[@Jakwob888]

mad respect to Zach, if it wasnt for his interest and time into actually explaining the steps i wouldnt watch the video throughout completely, i'd just be skipping through. You can tell he's a genuine guy. Thumbs up !!!

[@650ib]

Thank you very much for that feedback.

[@johna6968]

Great to watch a pro doing his thing.

[@coopah1]

I really enjoy watching this BMW S1000RR being upgraded by a professional bike mechanic like Zack. He explains step by step what he's doing. GREAT bike build series!!!! Thanks 650ib!!!

[@jasondavis9215]

Alot of mathematics, timing, and patience to do that kind of work. And Zack has alot of patience. I would be scared as hell to take my bike apart like that. Zack is the man, for sure. My friend is purchasing the same s1000rr, motorsport color from Manhattan BMW next month. I need to show him these videos. He can learn alot about his bike when he gets it.

[@klaus-juergenkessel3916]

Zach got it all,I am very impressed ! Unbelievable knowledge about everything. He probably started to work after elementary school! While he is working hard and very fast, I never saw anybody else in the shop working. They play with their smartphone, have a smoke or just sitting around. Also, I would like to see a video where 650i just has to change a spark plug. It might will take him one hour, Haaaaaa

[@lukesmall7660]

This guy is a fucking wizard. He's so calm and explaines beautifully what when and why things are happening. Everything he is saying is actually going in my head. Instead of in one ear and out the other. Loving the videos 650ib. Wish the UNITED KINGDOM COULD ENTER

[@dailyriddenitalians1248]

Been waiting to see the race cams installed. Can't wait to see the dyno results with everything installed.

[@Dubyaturbo06]

Mr. Desmo that's what I'm waiting on aswell.

[@adamvertuca8526]

I feel like I could become a BMW tech after watching these. Zack does such an awesome job of explaining everything.

[@TheAceTroubleshooter]

650 is THE most awesome dude, cares more about his viewers than anyone else.... Look at this crazy machine he is going to GIVE away! Its nuts!

[@650ib]

Thanks so much man!!!!

[@wholelottamiata6976]

Having the tool to lock the timing in place is really smart. It can be annoying on other engines when things keep moving around. Love this video by the way. This mechanic explains everything super well and detailed

[@bingeciren]

Way too involved and more laborious than I’m willing to do it even though I have the resources. I’ll let my bmw dealer to check and adjust the valve clearances when it’s due. I’m impressed with Zack. This video is one of the best of the new bike build series. Thank you ib and Zack.

[@SportbikerNZ]

Very cool to see technical mechanics like this. Couldn't stop watching.

[@650ib]

Thanks.... Zack is a BOSS!!!

[@AKS-wn2qz]

I just love videos like these,pure mechanic stuff,and specifically videos about the engine

[@victordiaz4977]

This guy really knows what he’s doing man gives me great confidence

[@Mr-hz6jz]

Man I have a new respect for all motorcycle mechanics, WOW!!! My shop charges $75 an hour labor, and Im not going to complain about that any more👍🏾

[@jessefpv9217]

There’s Absolutely No way in Hell I would Trust Anybody besides a True Mechanic like This Man to do this to my bike.. Absolute Legend

[@650ib]

I agree 💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@pinkpuffin187]

Awesome. Been waiting a few days for this. So glad Zach showed the process. I checked the valve clearances on my 08 CBR600RR at 36k miles and was happy to find them still in tolerance. Nice work Zach.

[@GranTurismoJunky]

Awesome to see BMW Mottorad using AIR for everything as well. Being a tech on the car side of BMW, it's really cool to see all the same tools being used for the bike side. The evolution from BMW car to bike tech seems like it wouldn't be so bad ;)

[@Skr-gb4hk]

Daulton Grothaus correct we get your hand me downs😂. Thanks for watching

[@bikelifesoldier5412]

Very interesting and informative video! With the knowledge he has and time he saves having it, Zack is easily worth $85 an hour.

[@willydmankal]

BikeLife Soldier 2whlz4rlz sad thing is that he probably gets a small peice of that

[@convex7456]

@@willydmankal running his own shop?

[@steveortez2613]

Wow I like the fact that BMW makes that kit and the tool for the end of the cams so you don’t have to use a degree wheel which means the cams probably have the same lobe center as the stock cams

[@denallizx10]

This was a fantastic video....very informative. . This type of demonstration has never been shown on KZbin before....all I can say is WOW...innovation at its best.

[@650ib]

Thanks man!

[@hastinbagewadi1863]

The majority went over my head.. but damn.. that was super informative. Zack is doing an amazing job...

[@triedproven9908]

Sweet work! And doing a valve clearance job to boot! Im loving it. The bike is surly going to pick up a lot of hp.

[@jackoutofwack]

As a fellow motorcycle technician thank you this video was truly awesome and actually helpful and your tech seems to be very knowledgeable and experienced with what he’s doing

[@650ib]

Thanks, I agree

[@arnielio1766]

I'd love to learn more from Zack, he's a great mechanic. I love to see him work on engines everytime.

[@gaddy8964]

Thanks for sharing great video @650ib..! Be sure to let Zack know his patience and knowledge is greatly appreciated!

[@tomtaylor142]

Zach is a legend his work is magic

[@spetersonmusic]

That was REALLY informative. Like a master class in how the shims are set along with how to clock the cams, etc.. Outstanding.

[@aidanB.]

Just another day in the life of Zach the master mechanic. Wonderful!

[@tomorrowtoday4839]

This is about the greatest KZbin video I have ever seen! Totally enjoyed seeing this process. I would love to try this, as long as the engine was already out on the stand, lol!

[@ComputerGeekOnTwoWheels]

Zack is the man. Thanks for showing us and educating us on this procedure.

[@soroshashtiany3659]

His explanation step by step is awesom

[@Lockitinlow]

Really like this part of your videos. Watching Zack gives me more confidence in doing videos like this.

[@dieselstar5]

Nice job, Zack. I do the same type of work myself with equal amount of precision. I can't wait to see dyno numbers.

[@650ib]

Zack for Senate!

[@MegaJan93]

I just noticed that you set the timing with the 0° side of the BMW tool. As far as I understood the 0° side is for checking if the Cam timing is still alright and the other side with 1,7°/1,6° is meant for adjusting the cams after loosening the cam sprockets.

[@griffinhowell5221]

650ib First off, killer work to zack and you. Love this series. Secondly, all I can ever think about while he's working is how you must be thinking "Jesus am I glad I work in IT" instead of in a shop. In actuality, skill for skill, zack should probably getting paid A LOT more. Just being honest. Y'all keep up the great work though.

[@superprojb]

I hope you post up the total dollar amount of just the engine upgrades and all the labor hours (@ $85). I would like to see the gained horsepower to dollar ratio for all the engine upgrades. I'd like to decide if "The juice is worth the squeeze"? And... the factory warranty is now voided, right? Guessing just the following: $1,695 cams $1,650 exhaust $ 250 Dyno time $1275 labor 15 hours $4870 Estimated cost Don't get me wrong, I think it's a very cool project and video series. I am curious about the final horsepower to dollar ratio.

[@Breathemusic4202]

.....a guy like 650....does not care about money...he's a multimillionaire lol....he cares about quality, precision, and expertise

[@geonerd]

Are you sure the new valve springs are a single piece kit, without an inner spring? I've never heard of such a layout! That magnetic cam retainer tool is so cool. (If you've never removed valves and keepers with an old C-clamp type gizmo, you won't appreciate how much easier the procedure is with the new tool.)

[@shawnhughes615]

Great mechanic zack is very technical advice

[@pedrogoze5126]

This guy is a beast mechanic

[@heero3578]

Love it, real technical & so much easier to do with the engine out. wish cars were that easy to pull down. Much respect 4 Zach, straight shooter & no bullshit. Good vibes & good video brutha!!

[@blackman6913]

This is great i love the step by step and how candid he was about this 😁 ive always wondered how they do the valve job

[@cuttingedgecool7235]

Zack is the truth and nothing but the truth!

[@TheColorOfIce]

Give this man a raise!!!!!!!

[@Redrider2k2]

I've done work like this many times but never on a BMW. Nice to get a look at their spin on things.

[@shrewsnose1]

That guy is a wizard 🧙‍♂️👌🏻

[@cr500kev8]

will give 8 hp and improve that mid range. Hopefully they are good quality cams. Best bang for buck would be porting the head and some good wsbk stage 3 cams from alpha racing the top bmw s1000rr specialist. Zack you know your stuff pal. Been a pleasure to watch your skills 👍

[@Alps6408]

This is going to be 1 seriously fast S1KRR

[@650ib]

I agree!

[@anusaukko6112]

18:30 Hope you double check that the valve springs are correct before hitting the dyno. Seems odd that the new one's aren't double springs..

[@650ib]

The new springs are 2x as dense and strong as the old ones but weigh less.

[@andrewbacklund4752]

Awesome video!!!! Made a scary job look so much easier! Two videos in two weeks that helped me ALOT. Keep em coming 650!🤘🏻

[@oteimoto85]

Digital NASA level torque wrench. Too trick. Great vid, awesome mechanic. Been looking for a valve clearance vid, so thanks dude

[@Jonathan-q1i]

Awesome video, schools charge lots of money to teach that stuff. Side question, dont new cams need assembly lube? Or do you just build oil pressure first before firing the motor to make sure the top end isn't dry?

[@Skr-gb4hk]

J B yes assembly lube is a must and was applied after final valve clearance adjustment

[@coopah1]

13:13 I see a visual difference in the cams.

[@peanuthead1397]

My main concern is that Zack did not reinstall the OEM innner valve springs with the after market valve springs from Brentuning..I am not sure about this BMW engine but my 1441 Busa that I built has aftermarket APE 65 lbs valve spring and require the inner spring also to be install with aftermarket springs.Check with Brentuning.Adam

[@meyou1528]

70lbs springs I rev s1000rr motors to 15k after the cams and springs no issues.

[@Rusty_trombone62]

08:39 W-WOW-OA!!!!! Epic reaction!!!

[@Bubblelover13]

Hey you going to put some cam shafts in your HP4?

[@FernandoLopez-yo3uv]

To have a camshaft timing kit and skipping the very critical part of degreeing the race cams is Amazing. If only all makes provided a kit. .

[@bryanrecheck5796]

I'm glad I waited to comment about the coating on the cams lol

[@armandocervicato2805]

So .. just my curiosity how much power how many hp did you get by installing the racing camms?

[@daa3417]

He said he likes to be on the loose side of the shim tolerance. Why? Wouldn't that reduce the miles to necessary replacement? I'm not critiquing I'm just curious as to your reasoning.

[@Skr-gb4hk]

Da A loose is fast.

[@67amri13]

Zack is strong man this kind of work need knowledge thinks ib for the video

[@buncobooth]

After 11:07 didn't he undo the bolts in the wrong order ? On the diagram bolt 1 was cylinder 1 exhaust side, he started cylinder 4 intake side (bolt 14) ?

[@tj31732]

WOW!!! An extremely informative video. Zack is awesome! Wish I had a mechanic so thorough. Does he work on Ducatis?

[@ronaldk.wileyjr.5476]

So why were the inner springs not required to be used with the new outter one's?

[@titoinette31]

Zack is a artist :)

[@yaqoubalsarraf3142]

Thank you for those informative videos, it was extremely hard job, but with this Zack, he made every thing clean and easy but for real it isn't

[@ezergayongala3213]

he is one great mechanic.

[@JuLew3105]

This is almost exactly how to to a valve adjustment on a BMW M3 E46. Had the same issue, not enough shims to compensate the valve clearance tolerance. Those other shims are worthless and not cheap!

[@michaelmemphis2705]

Owesome video. Good job guys.😉. I have a question. If I change the racing cams to my yamaha r1. How many horse power will get ?

[@lightning9279]

Zack for President 2020

[@adventuremanintheclouds8968]

How are you getting access to the BMW dealer site? I also have a shop and they basically told me that only dealers can access it.

[@jasonmekush5280]

difference between a simple gsxr 1000 and a bmw : I removed my cams didnt need any screwy number removal didnt hurt a thing. And yes I paid Johny turbo the money to put it back together.

[@SethPortland]

IB, I'm proud that you made this bike give-away legal.

[@fadi_koka]

How much it cost to do this job

[@kendrickgoat]

Yo. Don't hate me I don't know a lot about the engine of bikes but what are the benefits of a race cam.

[@Q_liketheletter]

Bike Life more power

[@kendrickgoat]

Kwame Boyce by how much normally

[@Q_liketheletter]

Im really not sure how much, i just know that you gain more power, maybe 650ib can tell us

[@650ib]

+Bike Life It can add as much as 10hp to the bike.

[@brianantnssn5177]

Also, you can change the torque curve a bit as well, race teams do this sometimes as well.

[@abreganovic2872]

I understand racecams increase performance but can somebody explain to me How that works? And in comprison to stock cams?

[@abreganovic2872]

Turbo warren Thanks!

[@757gixxer750]

Man I live in alabama. Zach make me want to drive all the way there to work on all my bikes because I know it will be done rite. Lol he know is shiittt!!!!!

[@joyfulpyro2589]

Rmz J there is a shop in GA that builds race engines. The last place I went to closed. The shop in GA has a very good Dyno as well.

[@jessefpv9217]

I wish I had a job filming a Mechanic working on my fav bikes. All bikes are my fav besides Ducati lol. I’ll be your filmer anyday 650ib.

[@650ib]

😂😂😂😂 Thanks Bro

[@Sinkerbist]

Amazingly descriptive! Nice one Zack!

[@nikolagrdanjski3526]

Nice! Can you ask Zack, which program he used for a service manual? I own the BMW S1000R 2017 and I want to replace some things on the motorcycle, but I do not know the amount of force required to tighten some bolts. For example, the rear wheel or front braking disc... I believe there is some manual or pc software where is written force/torque for each bolt on the motorcycle.

[@brianantnssn5177]

Do you not have an owner's manual? The regular maintenance jobs such as wheel removal are listed with torque specs.www.bmw-motorrad.com/com/en/index.html?content=www.bmw-motorrad.com/com/en/services/manuals/manuals_main.html&notrack=1Note there are quite a few, verify you have the most recent manual for your bike type.

[@cbrad6002013]

ahhh i have to run out .. but ill be back to watch this video as im pumped to see the cams installed !!!

[@davidthebiker2955]

Hey ib. Sorry if this is a repeat question, but when does the build series end and the drawing happen?

[@jamesweber4938]

Did you loosen the bolts in the opposite sequence to the diagram ? You went closest to the cam chain first ?

[@apexhunter2k]

Did you ever dyno the bike after the cam install? If so, what was the hp?

[@sendit2873]

man a rc car,lawnmower, and quickie saw is that a small engine repair shop lol another great video and in my cars I screw in a air hose connecter in the sparkplug hole and connect an airhose so you really do not need a leakdown tool as long as the fitting is the same thread size of the plug holes man I sure hope he put alot of assembly lube on those cams before install and turning them they looked dry to me which is a big no no on any engine should have kept old shims they are high dollar and may be useful for another bike

[@dariodipaola8445]

I'm thinking about installing a set of race cams myself on my Gen5 ZX10R... the race cams follow the same suit as these, a little bit of lift difference but overall longer duration. I'm assuming with longer duration you'd want to delay your ignition timing? Am I correct? And in what increments is/should I be adjusting the timing by and how can I verify the ignition timing is ideal?

[@650ib]

Hey.... Please email Brentuning and they will answer your questions.

[@Lockitinlow]

How do you degree them with the adjustable timing gear? Does that eye glasses tool just set it up to the bmw spec for you do you don't have to degree them? Would there be an advantage to degree them in vs the factory set up tool if that's the case?

[@mmm4638]

What's the reliability for the cams vs. Oem?

[@Ace-od5mv]

1 of the best video ever

[@rubberskilla2991]

That stuff is TRULY amazingly cool! Mkes me want to go to school so i can do this for a living

[@redhotchili55]

I’m planning on doing a valve clearance check on my 2015 S1000R and this video definitely gave me a confidence boost. Thanks for all the detail and things to look for that are seriously critical. One question, for my 18k service do you recommend changing all main gaskets?

[@procoelho]

Best 33 min.... thats science!!!!!!

[@650ib]

Thanks for viewing the entire video!

[@perryyip3416]

Awesome, would like to watch gear ratio tuning too.

[@amirnazir3132]

Race Cams indeed make lots of power difference. You must be enjoying riding your Beast more now. 🙂 Ride safe.

[@joemmanraief8619]

Zach use a safety gogel to check the valve spring good work man 👍👍💪🏾

[@cedmc6711]

man I love this channel!

[@340ironman]

How much work to adjust valves?

[@cbctitre]

did Zach lube the cams prior to or after installation? ...or is it necessary ?
