Top 5 Common Mistakes DIY Mechanics Make

[@shadetreesurgeon]

One small mistake, you don't have to be noob mechanic to make all these mistakes, I've been making them all for YEARS at this point! 😂

[@motocheeno]

😅 hence the name! I get it now. Trust me, working next to some of these seasoned techs... I still consider myself a noob

I might add, on m6 bolts and smaller threaded into aluminum or magnesium, either don’t use a torque wrench or reduce the spec to about 70%. Those little guys will strip really easy with a torque wrench when your not even close the the spec called out in the book.

[@FasterBastard1]

Yep. The 120 in lbs called for on primary case bolts with snap/strip them every time

I literally replace all metric with grade 8 or grade 5 sae. I use good quality tap and die kits.. I even tap and rethread my battery terminals. There is NO metric on any of my bikes. 70-98”, 93-127” & 98-113”. Nothing will ever sit in my garage with an EFI, ECU or any other nonsense. My religion is red only… it’s just how much. Repair wires? No… remove all ECU, EFI nonsense… sodar, shrink wrap, termination blocks… good quality wire. If you can’t get at minimum a 12 second ET and do a 500 mile day then you did it wrong.

Sounds like you've got a solid system down! 😎
