Virago 1100 Shrapnel Motor removal pt.2

The day is here! We're pulling the shrapnel motor, Tearing the rear Head off, and checking out the damage that caused all the shrapnel!!!
This one is quite cringeworthy! I knew it wasn't going to be good, yet it still ran me through a few emotions all at once.

C'mon bro, don't give up, you got this. The bike has a second wind. At least the piston rod didn't puncture the cylinder. She's on life support you can bring her back. Clean out the metal shavings in motor, buy eBay exhaust valve, good used piston head and new piston rings, new cam chains and do ur valve clearances 0.10mm intake, 0.15mm exhaust valve, buy new valve shems one time, new spark plug, then she's alive n ready again. Please don't give up bro this event will make you stronger, wiser. Don't give up. Everyone on the net let's help this brother, subscribe...💪

OMG did you push that to the end of the red line...

Pretty much

It is the best to show the mistakes in the video! We all are doing mistakes

OMG, that valve top was bouncing in there quite a lot hammering the piston and the head...😬

OH YEAH! Quite a bit of mixed emotion in this vid. Glad to know what it was after 7 months of sitting. But the carnage had me ROCKED!

@@pipedreamscustoms5105 in your intro video I saw the oil light come on for a moment It might has something to do with it..maybe was a bit low and caused starvation which caused the camshaft to sieze... Only guessing 😉

[@pipedreamscustoms5105]

@@MidlandCruiser It could be. The light would flicker on and off randomly so I would check the level on the crankcase sight glass instead. It's an old motor and been sitting for a while. I revved it out to get the attention of a distracted Tow Truck driver that came into my lane. Should've known better, but it was a knee-jerk reaction. Oh well, now we're making videos because of it!

@@pipedreamscustoms5105 keep sharing your experience, mate. Fun to watch... I thought you are going to drop the bike when lowered the engine... 😁

@@MidlandCruiser It happened last time! We'll get it right someday! 🤣🤣🤣

[@broughtonparkade5381]

Did you get it like that or run it till it stopped?

[@pipedreamscustoms5105]

The damage on that engine was definitely me.
