Awesome I was wondering where the next in the series was 👍

[@garage_tales]

Sorry it took so long. Life is a bit busy. But the plan is to stick to it now till it’s done. I think 6-8 videos and we’re done with it :)

[@scampaboy]

I actually have an ST but these videos have me the confidence to do most of this work myself

[@scampaboy]

@@garage_tales cool 😎

They’re good bikes. Triples are really nice engines :)

Been watching for a couple of months and enjoying the content. Calm measured and nicely explained. Keep doing what you're doing. Only point is, can you please hang the union flag correctly, its upside down. Cheers.

[@garage_tales]

Thank you for your kind comment! Appreciate it :) Regarding the flag, you are the second person to mention about it :)) I will consider your request, but can’t make any promises yet :))

Hello it’s again the frenchman and I have a question. I have a bad sensation with the the direction. When I turn the handlebar from the left to the right, it’s very « light », no consistancy. As if the direction was not « breaked ». I squeezed the nut (4:00 in your video) but no difference. Next I loosened the nut and now it’s much better. I specify that I have not the tool so I didn’t remove the screw with holes (2:32 in your video). I’m very surprise, what do you think about that ? Thanks a lot

[@garage_tales]

Hi there. Not sure what to say from that description without feeling what the bearings are like. They are tappered roller bearings, so tightening the nut too much will preload them excessively. It’s not meant to tighten the bearings, just to set a preload, and then use the next one to lock the setup in place 🙂 But not entirely sure what’s happening 🙂
