My Craig is named Brian.

In my long career as an auto mechanic I exclusively worked on VWs for the first 28 years, when they began as aircooled. It was common to see them "swallow an exhaust valve" as in normal operation they required manual valve adjustments; being too tight as the valve stem stretched. I saved the heads of the broken off valves in a drawer in my toolbox and had 163 of them. I didn't see if the larger intakes or smaller exhaust valves was the one that snipped off. You brought back a lot of memories for me. Keep up the good work. Now in retirement at 76 years old I can just enjoy my 4 Honda motorcycles; my 2010 VFR 1200f, my 2014 CB1100, my 2012 CBR250r, and my 2023 Grom.

@@cjhickspe1399 I just had a nice ride on it yesterday. The '14 is all black and has a 6 speed transmission and has mag wheels where the '13s were red and silver. 5 speed trans and spoke wire wheels. One thing I really like about it is if you hold the throttle steady and go to downshift the engine revs are exactly correct for the next lower gear. Friday-Sunday in Leesburg Florida is the Leesburg Bikefest and I will be there ( I live 30 miles away)

Not enough ring end gap is why the lands blew outta that other piston. Ring closes up gap, ring can't expand out anymore so it wants to go sideways and blows out the ring land. More end gap on turbski motors, especially non intercooled.

@14:39 - That's an External Wastegate, not a Blow Off Valve. The Wastegate controls the amount of boost you produce and prevents the turbo from spinning too fast, by allowing some of the exhaust gas to bypass the turbo. This is an external wastegate because it's outside the turbo, versus a traditional swingvalve wastegate often located in the turbine housing / outlet. Because that bypassed exhaust doesn't go thru the turbo (which quiets it down by stealing some of it's energy), guys often "divorce" it's outlet from the exhaust like this into it's own "dump tube", which causes the engine to be much louder whenever the wastegate is open. The Blow Off Valve (BOV) is on intake side, on the charge piping between the turbocharger and throttle body, and is what makes the loud "psssh" noise on shifts etc. It allows boost pressure to be vented to the atmosphere when the throttle body is closed, so that the pressure doesn't reverse direction and go back into the turbo, causing the compressor to stop suddenly and stall, leading to wear, and increasing turbo spool time when the throttle is opened again. If you vent the boost back into the intake instead (what most factory turbos do), it's instead called a bypass valve (BPV) and is much quieter.

21:39 That manual cam chain tensioner is the culprit I'm telling you right now. Every knucklehead that gets one over tightens it. That leads to your chain guides quickly wearing out and shaving plastic into the oil pan. That clogs the oil pickup screen. Oil starvation would most likely be why your cams are worn, your connecting rods are tight on the big end (unless ypu meant "tight" as in not sloppy and worn out) and the pistons got hot and detonated. The detonation can cause valves to break as well as typical piston damage.

Only doing the top end is NOT recommended. You're already into it this far, just pull the bottom end down and clean up all the metal that got trapped in the bearings and crank. Doing it your way guarantees you will be doing it again, with the probability that it will be way more expensive the next time. Your milage may vary.

I would definitely pull apart the bottom to inspect rod bearings main bearings etc just in case, as theires nothing worse than rebuilding the top end and the bottom end needs repair after starting the engine.

LOVE the RE5. Blew up my honda back in 88 on a roadtrip in Seguin Texas. Costed the Honda in to a local motorcycle dealership and it was done for. They had a beautiful RE5 sitting on the floor so I traded them on the spot. Wound up roadtripping that Suzuki across all of Texas (just stopping wherever and living out of a tent) for the next 6 months. Things you HAVE to know - it is a 2 stroke - the oil goes in a separate tank on the right hand side of the bike. If it has run without 2 stroke oil, it will likely have burned rotor tips & will need to replace them. Flush the coolant. Treat it like an old Suzuki Waterbuffalo in every way but the motor. It is a blast.

Hey Craig, I think that the boost pressure for the intake valves caused the valve to float. Maybe replace the intake valve springs with harder ones and get those valve shims in spec! I'd say that you could just get away with rebilding it without splitting the cases and just changing the oil filter with a ring magnet after some hundred miles to fully get the metal bits out of the engine. Looking forward to the series :D

Hi Craig. The broken valve/piston is one thing but the other broken piston is another. Make sure you have enough ring end gap for a boosted application. It will be considerably wider than non boosted. Should be an absolute rocket when you get it done.

Better tuning and oiling I would say. Thank kink near the turbo clearly translates to bad oiling up top too.

@tomclanys

Ай бұрын

backpressure in the oil return line could increase the oil leaking into the intake side. All the oil sitting above the throttle body is just from the turbo

Came for the YN trash talking train. Staying for Craig now.

Well, the broken valve was one thing, but the other broken piston speaks to not having enough ring end gap for use in a boosted application - something to keep in mind in the rebuild. I agree that lower comp pistons and a better tune (maybe a boost specific cam too?) will go a long way to making this rocket actually reliable.

Hopefully helpful hint. Exhaust pipe cutter to open your oil filters. I have the mac ratcheting one... but any Amazon/harbor freight tool will work just aswell. Good vids.

Hey a great way to open a canister oil filter like that is a pipe cutter. Runs little cutting discs around the edge and can cut the top ring off a filter clean, no debris. They make both direct-pressure versions (couple of big cutting discs) or chain cutter versions (lots of small cutting discs). Great tool to have around a shop.

Man so many of your fans are NOT fans of Yammie. Self included.

Twenty three years later, it was nice to see how things really work. I had a 96 Blackbird that I felt was too slow. I had engine work done (port and polish) and some tuning and felt it was still too slow. I had the bike go on a diet (Dymag Carbon Fiber rims, all bolts other than weight bearing were replaced with aluminum and felt it was still too slow. I then had a turbo installed. Mark Moisan from American Turbo in Naples, FL had a kit for the blackbird. My bike was built to be a sleeper and if I wanted to run in high boost (Aerodyne Turbo) I had to mix VP Racing VP16 and 92 pump 50/50. If I was on low boost, pump gas was fine. One night, 10 miles past nowhere, at 160, the bike felt weird. I pulled the clutch in and 2 seconds later the whole bike shut off. I had the engine pulled. I am nowhere near the knowledge level of you or even capable of repairing it. When the engine was pulled, it did make the sounds you mentioned you didn't want to hear. When the engine was opened up, we learned that the biggest piece of piston left was about the size of a thumbnail. The piston exploded into pieces and the crank ripped into the cylinder wall. Your explanation of all the workings was very educational for me. Now I know what things are and can apply it to what happened to me. That bike had 280hp, 180lbs of torgue and was a little more than 400lbs wet. I miss that bike.

Craig Jones of Doghouse motorcycle fame is brilliant, especially with building bobbers out of enfield bullets and he had ADHD with his work and fabricates hardtail frames for bobbers and the welds, snagging and finish is second to none. Top bloke too. 😊😊😊

I stopped following yammie when he snaked spite. And put out that demoralizing video that is now long gone

I don’t get involved with the drama bullcrap. I still watch Yammie as he still puts out decent content, although I really liked him and Spite’s chemistry together. I watch all of Spites’s stuff as well. I think Spite is better off doing his own content. He’ll definitely make more money doing his own thing…

He's also just an all around loser that acts like he knows how to ride till you actually see him ride and see he has no skill lol

@@Jump-n-smash Spite was on the Yammie Noob channel for a while and was kind of Yam’s right hand man. Then Yammie decided to kind of go into a different direction and he let Spite go in a controversial way. So now Spite has his own channel, Spites Corner is what it’s called.

The yammie noob drama started way before the Spite incident, just do a search on here for yammie noob bike crash, never liked the guy or been subbed to him i think hes a prize w⚓️ but im not gonna stop watching Craig because of it as Craigs a good dude and probably knows nothing of the dramas.

Yeah his behavior surrounding the crash with the Porsche left a bad taste in my mouth. But Craig fixing a bike is Craig fixing a bike 👍

@@The_Bearded_Mechanic Yeah me too generally but it was hard with Yammie Noob as his 2 main drama's, Crash and Spite incident were all over youtube with a lot of the channels I do watch making videos on the subject's...

So fun to see the Busa went to you guys. And get to know what the reason was it blew. Looking forward seeing it being rebuilt.
