BJ great job on the carbs and forks, just checked out your channel and just subscribed.

[@Scoots1994]

Of COURSE washers are directional. The stamping leaves a sharp edge that should always go against the surface. The question really is, would you take something apart BECAUSE a washer was installed upside down?

[@thecaudells]

This is the collab the internet wanted! 🔥🔥🔥

i still wish you lived in my town ;)

[@cjhickspe1399]

You meet the nicest people working on a Honda. Thumbs up.

[@spewp]

I see what you did there. Flap of skin thumbs up? 😬

[@MotoMission.]

That was funny.

With Ducatis you just meet people. lots of them. all with broken ducatis.

as a honda odyssey driver the guy that rebuilt my transmission wasnt THAT nice.

There is absolutely no other channel where the camera guy contributes commentary and I love it, makes it feel like I'm on a video call with my buddy showing me a bike

BJ's videos is how I got my own GL500i back on the road after sitting for 10 years. You definitely got the right guy for the job.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

🙏🙏

[@perrycalabrese3475]

My GL500 ADV just turned over 71k miles. Still loving it

[@Badenhawk]

Same with my 1980 cx500 that I'm still restoring. He's an awesome resource.

Love it that BJ & Yourself got together for the Honda Adventure Build-Epic & Solid at the same time!!!!

Fork seal removal trick: heat the slider with a heat gun or torch. Seals pop right out. Taught to me by the Honda tech side of a multiline dealership 45 years and hundreds of fork seal jobs ago. Too clean the interior of the sliders clear to the bottom use a long handle bottle brush in a drill. Commercial kitchen suppliers carry them. Carry on.

[@MostlyInteresting]

My first fork seal replacement back in the 80's I left the forks in the clamps rather than take them off and putting them in a vice. Now I see vids like "change the seals the easy way!" LOL

[@jamesgeorge4874]

Underrated comment.

[@Benjamin-xv2hg]

I've noticed in life it's all about how you phrase things to have a more positive outcome. It's not a workbench. It's the healing bench. The longer things sit on it, the healthier they get.

[@nebula_M42]

that´s the main reason why I watch this channel. I work on a completely different field, but work piles up and things get complex very soon, I tend to go all negative thinking and being overflowed by thinking how much work is left and all that. When I look at this guy, I find myself in him but he´s always with a positive attitude, I bet part of it is because he loves his work and that helps, I love mine too but I have to change my mindset and be more like him.

[@bennymanproductions2345]

Bearded Mechanic inspired me to pull a roto tiller out of the shed that hasn’t started in 5 years. Using his techniques I got the thing running

[@wmason1961]

I have always loved the CX and adventure bikes. They should be great together.

[@dannygilbert5885]

BJ obviously a talented mechanic. Very understated, calm and methodical. Got my subscription!

Excited to see how she turns out! always like craigs attitude an sense of humor

My 3rd bike at a teenager was an 83 Cx 650 custome, great great bike even won a cpl burn out moments w the guys ~ great times!

[@GaahlDukat]

Craig, thank you so much for installing that cotter pin the correct way instead of the heathens that just bend over both tabs...made my morning

[@van_trippin5260]

His name is Craig then? Genuinely thought Creg was a name over there. Thank you

[@rpalmer274]

What are you supposed to do I always bend it

[@ericr.w.9000]

It’s spelled Kreg…😅

[@JeffKopis]

That's a weird fetish 🤣

[@van_trippin5260]

@@GaahlDukat i didn't 'correct' anything? there's plenty of words you struggle with, i find it funny. Watching an american say mirror is hilarious, you look like you've had a stroke and a weird meeeer noise comes out.

[@jerrypomroy2375]

Looking good. Getting excited to see the final results.

[@johnbabineaux384]

I absolutly love the amount of detail you put in while repairing a bike. I really do love when you rebuild the motor and show what you're doing. I would love to work on bikes too but can't. Keep it up and the detail of you actually figuring stuff out will always have people coming back for more!!

what a pleasure watching you guys work!

[@BigIronTexas]

For those curious about what Craig was using on his pneumatic die grinder to clean the gasket surface look up "roloc bristle disc". They're pretty handy for cleaning a metal surface where you need to avoid any metal removal.

[@SteveBrigden]

Thanks. Just bought one 👍

[@georgecooke9010]

YOU'RE NO TOOL AND DIE MAKER. A DECENT A DIE GRINDER AT 34,000 RPM IS WAY TOO FAST FOR RYLOC WHICH ARE DESIGNED FOR ABOUT THAT SPEED, A DRILL WOULD BE BETTER. RYLOC IS DESIGNED TO RENOVE DEBRIS FROM HARD METAL SURFACES ACCORDING TO 3M. I'M 63 AND HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE USE RYLOC ON A DIE. DURING A TOUR OF A PITTSBURG GM PLANT IN 1985 MY BOSSE'S UNCLE SHOWED IS A DIE TO STAMP OUT FIERO FLOOR PANS BIG ENOUGH TO WALK INTO. SURFACE GRINDERS AND LAPPING PLATES ARE WHAT HEAD AND DECK SURFACES NEED TO BE PREPARED ON IF MACHING IS NOT REQUIRED. I CAN'T FATHOM HOW HAND GRINDING ALUMINUM HEAD AND DECK SURFACES WITH AN ALUMINUM OXIDE ABRASIVE DISC AT OVER 30K RPM IS ACCURATE + OR - .0005" OR EVEN .001" NOT TO MENTION MAINTAINING A PRECISE RA FINISHED SURFACE. I'M NOT CURIOUS, I'M KNOWLEDGEABLE AND YOU ARE NOT A PROFESSIONAL. HAVE A NICE DAY SIR.

[@dozervin1]

Cool build guys. Can't wait to see the finished ride.

[@LongRanger1]

I would have never thought to weld onto a stud broke below the surface of an aluminum head. Ive always gone to the ez-outs & accurately drilling out the mass. Same with the fire to soften up the bead on a tire. I’ve explosively sealed alota beads b4. Brilliant Im an old road-dog and still learning. Thanks Boys.

[@chrislye8912]

What a lovely bloke!

[@2Wheels2Relax]

This is such an awesome build! My first bike was a 81 cx500c. I always wanted to clean it up and rebuild it into something cooler... But I don't have a shop or garage or money to pay someone else to do it. Glad to see one being treated to a makeover.

[@perrycalabrese3475]

The Shinko 705 and Duro HF904 tires work well on the GL and CX ADV builds. Also, Harbor Freight sells fiber abrasive wheels (red and blue) that work great for removing paint and that nasty clear coat from aluminum without damaging the surface. I was very lucky to find a 2 into 1 header with Yoshi can . Sounds great!

@The Bearded Mechanic, "Craig".... I am Disabled Retired US Navy, I don't do much anymore because of my Disabilities. I am 62 yrs old and enjoy and Laugh over some of Your Videos.... I owned several of the Bikes you fix or have ridden them.... How about a 1985 Gen 1 Yamaha V-Max.... that was my favorite and First was 1978 CB 125 and TM 100 SUZ........ Take care and God Bless.... Love You Showes.... You should have your own Series on TV or KZbin TV..........

[@John_Ridley]

I love my CX. When I first started looking at them I was amazed at how absolutely skeletal they are with the engine out. It's like one pipe and two triangles and that's it.

[@myfavoritecolorisrage]

Fun hack for getting things in the exact middle when you're working with small items you need to drill. And you don't want to mess with an SAE tape measure and dividing fractions. Grab a sheet of paper, speaker wire, plastic bag, kleenex, or whatever you can find and cut it to the same length as your piece. Now fold that in half. Now mark that on your piece and go for it.
