Thanks for everything! It's awesome watching a true legend 🙌 👏 wrenching on bikes!

Years of experience given to us for a watch. It doesn't get any better! Thanks Brock! Can't wait for part 3!

I agree that Suzuki made them user friendly with maintenance. I rebuilt my gv650 (I’m a car mechanic) and was surprisingly simple on the motor removal. Love the vids 👏 ride safe

One of the best explained videos out there. Not just “this is how you do it.” But, “why, you do it.” It’s helping me troubleshoot my busa, and then some thanks for all the effort is very appreciated!

Glad you like. The next episode is VERY long and chocked full of info.

I ran into a odd cylinder miss recently on a zx14. You could hear the miss. Used a digital temp gauge on each header pipe. Number 1 was about 200 degrees less than other cylinders. Other 3 were 600 degrees number 1 was 400. Checked plug and coil which were ok. Started getting worried and was about to dig into engine but I could not believe the engine had a problem. Went back and tested coil and plug by swapping to a different cylinder and the problem followed. Moved only plug to another cylinder and the problem followed. Turned out to be an intermittent plug failure. Been working fine ever since.

Pls keep making more of these video's... It is so educational...!!!

Nice and thorough video. Thanks!

Brilliant video. Loved the part about manually having idle adjusters. Yea the good old days. My 09 CBR600 recently had high idle problems...took some time to figure out the issue. All.i can say is. It wasnt the idle control valve. Like you said Brock. Look past the OEM parts for problems. If only i knew that sooner. Hahaha. Problem solved. Your videos are inspiring and gives me a lot of confidence to work on my own motorcycle. Be blessed Brock.

Love these videos, thanks 👍👍

just had to do this on my gsxr. looks like i had a few tight intake valves causing valve sealing issues. Keep making diag videos..its great to see your thought process

Clear Prop! great videos!

If you have a miss, the first thing I do is identify which cylinder had a miss… you do that by checking the temperature on each exhaust… if you have a miss, it usually isn’t compression related… once you’ve die dies which cylinder, then swap ignition coil sticks… if the miss follows the ignition coil, then you know what to do… it was difficult to see how much the cam timing was out, but didn’t look like a whole tooth… could be stretched cam chain… I usually change timing chains between 80-100k (kilometres)… anyway, good video, thanks for sharing…

Awesome video instruction....Thanks you sir!!

These Suzuki engines are bullet proof. I had a K4 that randomly kept dumping fuel into cylinder #4. Compression test revealed 112psi in cylinder 4. I thought for sure the gas washed the cylinder, and melted the rings. I fixed the electrical issue, dumped a little oil in the cylinder, changed the oil, and put it together. Rode it for 200 miles or so. Compression came right back up to 180+ psi. Ever since then, I've been sold on Suzuki's.

This has been an interesting watch, i’m sort of in the same boat as you, i’m restoring a 99 ZX9R that has a miss on cyl #3, after watching this a leak down check is in order, its showing good cranking compression but has a miss @ idle & low rev’s, carbs are cleaned, rebuilt, & sync’d, fresh plugs, ots been perplexing to say the least

That's some great ingenuity with the zip tie and the breaker bar.

Great info and video as par for the course w anything you share Brock! Always….ALWAYS…Top Notch stuff! Speaking of fires, I have a coworker, his Dad has always been a car guy and has built some really high end muscle and classic cars! Had just bought a new to him home, was working in his garage, had FOUR really nice muscle cars including a beautiful 1969 Camaro! Was Wintertime and had a space heater, the ones w the orange glowing elements, and had disconnected the battery while working on the car, decided to crank over the car forgetting that he had pulled a fuel line coming from the fuel pump to the carb…. Catching on yet? Well, went to crank the car and nothing, went to investigate and found he hadn’t reconnected the battery, not realizing he had the ignition in the one position, well as soon as he reconnected that battery the fuel pump came on and fuel shot out all over the place and within seconds, before he couldn’t even react, the fuel got to the space heater and ignited the fuel and instantly spread to the car and ended up burning all found muscle cars, including that 1969 Camaro, and burned the entire garage to the ground! Destroyed his tools, lifts, EVERYTHING!!! Burned his body but he lived and luckily his garage was detached and even though the fire was so bad that it melted the siding on the main home, the home wasn’t too badly damaged!! So I can appreciate your safety routine, I mentioned to you in another video that when I was 17 a car battery exploded in my face blinding for 25-30 minutes so I feel you on removing that battery as well!! Again, ALWAYS great content and I love to learn from you!! #Brocks4ever #StupidFastNotStupidWorkEthics

@TT - yes, for the most part. The hidden fasteners on the G3 fairing require special care to find and disassemble without breaking them - but the service manual does a great job with this. It has far more electronic controls to help with corner, braking and rider control... but they require no maintenance.

i dont even own a bike yet and im here watching this video and also watch part one,, now waiting for part 3 Xd

Stripped down my crankshaft plug last year. Tried heat, knocking with a rubber mallet, using valve grinding paste on the hex to make it grip but no Fxxxing way!! had to time it by rotating the rear wheel instead. Ordered a new one for next inspection but i still need to get the darn thing off.. Those caps can be a real PITA ...

They are cast and will break away easily. You just have to be careful not to damage the cases. Remove the cover flip it over and try to crack the cap out with a chisel as a last resort, if needed.

Yes. The theory is that it's tougher to "blow-out" the shorter plug gap.

On my busa there was a big difference warm/cold engine when doing compression test. And from what I know its only the gen 2 and 3 that has the titanium valves

@BrockDavidson

2 жыл бұрын

Good catch on the valves! They run together after a while. There are many things that can affect compassion results - gas/oil/fuel in cylinder...condensation, surface rust etc. We perform the tests after warm-up as this best represents the state the engine is operating in.

Brock in the kawasaki race manual it says for the valve clearance. More performance is expected when adjusted from middle value to upper limit between adjustable range. But don't you want it at the minimum clearance to open the valve sooner and more. Thanks

Great Videos! Without being a spoiler (I understand what you are trying to do here) however, I would have, before pulling the valve cover, started the bike and pulled the cam sensor connection. It "should" have rev'd without a miss, showing me that the cam timing was off (or a cam sensor going south). :)

Hey @Ransom Holbrook -- SUPER FAST guy in the house! (Learn more about Ransom here: bit.ly/3PKMTR9 ) You have more experience with these engines than most, for certain. Teach me something here my friend. You are saying to unplug the cam position sensor and the bike should rev without a miss? And if it does... the cam timing might be off? and/or the sensor is going bad? I'm confused - can you explain in more detail?

@ransomholbrook7428

2 жыл бұрын

@@BrockDavidson So what happens in the ECU is that the cam sensor and crank sensor communicate with each other. The bike will not start without a cam sensor signal because the ECU doesn't know if number 1 or number 4 is at "true" TDC by reading only the crank sensor. Higher RPM misses and/or false REV limiters are caused by the ECU seeing the cam sensor outside of the "proper window" based on the cam sensor signal. Assuming the cam timing is off, then you get the miss or false REV limiter and this is also the reason you can set the intake cam above 114 degrees [it goes outside of the expected window of operation]. So.....if you start the bike and then unplug the cam sensor, the ECU ignores the cam signal all together and depends soley on the crank sensor for RPM/Ignition and such. I've seen this a many time on the dyno, easy to diagnose. Good?

@BrockDavidson

Жыл бұрын

Ok, the key is to unplug the sensor after the bike is running. I'll try that next time I get a chance. Not sure if you know, but you can reverse our cam pin to allow lc numbers above 114 also.

The breaker bar works,also putting the bike in gear works.

Brock how come the leak test results were so good if the timing was off? wouldn't that mean that at tdc the valves might not be completely closed?

@BrockDavidson

2 жыл бұрын

@valter ponte - Great question! The simplest reason is that it only jumper one tooth...any more than that and the valves might not have shut at TDC, but they would all also probably be bent by collisions with the piston.

Stretched cam chain , worn cam chain guides, and improperly adjusted cam chain tensioner. Lucky a piston did not contact a valve.

You did say the manual tensioner wasnt adjusted for the cam chain .

@BrockDavidson

2 жыл бұрын

No. The tensioner was originally adjusted and worked well for a long time... but just like any chain, the cam chain adjustment must be maintained to prevent the chain from slipping on the sprockets as it stretches due to natural wear. Hyvo style chains are quiet, but they don't have much engagement - so proper tension is even more important...that's why the OEM tensioner self-adjusts.
