You are are very skilled engineer, great watching you work, thanks for the video.

Just found your video, thank you very much. I'm just about to start machining a bare casting (my first time with this) so your methods will come in handy.

Try a nut over the plug and weld it in the center with arc rod not mig , fill to the top . use spanner. If no joy use impact gun , works everytime

Hello friend..what the material is that bushing?

Oil gallys appear a Rube Goldberg affair. What really was wrong with the OE busing affari if the motor was tended with a good oil change interval?

don good job

My Bsa b33 has very poor front brakes , they have been machined ,very little runout now, new quality shoes I've been bedding them for two weeks now but at best , they are about 40% of my good rear brake , it looks like I can make a longer brake arm 20mm, or hopefully get some higher friction material bonded to the old shoes , the contact area is at least 80% + , the drum material seems to be steel ! , I will try these things first and machine the new shoes to the drum diameter . Modern bikes have pads running on stainless type discs , so I am hoping there is a grippy material that can be stuck on . Have you had issues like this ? .cheers.

Is this for press fit or floating

I am just doing my forks , exactly the same Mines a 54 b33 , clips were difficult as the end wasn't near the notch , I found the new lower bush was too big to fit in the lower leg and I made sure to deburr the clip area and still lightly polish lower brass bush in the lathe .good video , most helpful .cheers

So how do you make it?

Thanks again very much Ade for this really helpful video. It was terrific to see how this works and I just did the same and gave you a little shout out 😊 best wishes, Mike!

Great video, thank you! I was going to do the same repair on my A65 as the splines are shot, and searched to see if someone already did that :) I bought a new shaft and want to re-use my existing selector - it changes gears beautifully so I don't want to replace it. I got one question for you: You drilled the body to 10.01 mm, what diameter did you use for the 15mm length of shaft that you pressed into the body? Thanks!

Are Oversized brake shoes now needed?

I am after respraying a 2125s in same colour. Can you tell me where you got the decals and paint please?

Hello great job could do with a wheel drum skimming do you take on such jobs ?

Will you service my b31 forks?

Great to see you posting again, miss seeing your posts.

How about a needle roller conversion instead of the bronze bush?

Fantastic job. Be great to see you posting films like you did before. As it suits you of course. I will watch whatever you put out at whatever frequency.

Your beast of a milling machine!

Great video - very helpful. Did you ever make the video on reinstalling the forks, with your puller tool? I don't seem to be able to find it.

los angeles calif. will send with return envelope and shipping. no one has the plates tried transmission shops motor cycle shops and no dice . please help

Doesn't take much resistance to stop the kick start returning....as you were telling us. I dont have any machine equipment....would love some....my dad was a tool maker. My crude attempt was at the other end....on the outside of the case.....I use a sort of counter sunk cutter in a drill....my o-ring sits between the back of the kickstart lever and the case. Not prefect....but surprisingly its helps a lot. The kick start has to be pushed onto the shaft all the time while nipping it up to maintain a slight pressure on the seal...... Very crude and amateurish I know.

can you square mine ?

Just discovered your conversation series, and I am thoroughly enjoying watching them. But as an ex mechanic, I've been wondering how you'll set the correct end float on the timing side. Previously there was a top hat bush, but now there is only the casing with bush locators. Will you use a shortened top hat bush to sit on the circlip, or shims... I guess I'll have to watch the rest to find out. Great work so far, and nice seeing this done from an engineering perspective 👍

Just about to rebuild an Ariel Huntmaster 650 engine with the help of some friends, people who know vastly more than me. Just came across this video and I'm in awe of such skill. What a cracking fella, so much care and time taken to get it spot on. I'm down in Kent, wish I lived closer. Thank you for making such a clear video, even if it was a while ago, timeless. Kindest regards. Richard

The chap sould have bought a Honda .............. leaking a small amount of oil is in my opinion acceptable and is part of owning a old BSA..... people have too much time and money on their hands

You're mumbling and not even into the microphone. You often can't hear a word. Crap video.

Nice work, looks good when finished.

Great work Ade. I like the little component analyser gadget. Best wishes, Dean.

Nice to see you are a man of many talents, good luck with the repair.

I'm describing the pin outs wrong here, but you get the idea 😊

Great video where did you buy the component analyzer I could do with one would come in very handy

Great video 👍thank you for your time .I have recently inherited my father‘s 69, 650 lightning A65.He was always concerned about the oil pressure dropping at idle when warm , he told me, I would eventually have to replace this,bushing. again, oil pressure will come down when warm ..Appox. down below 30 pounds at idle ,he had recently installed high pressure oil pump with good oil, he told me that I should consider replacing this bush in the future due to low oil pressure , the other day I took it for a spin in the evening it was about 80° outside and when I got close to 5 miles of driving around my neighborhood (never got out of third ) stop and go basically ,oil pressure started to come down at idle. However, with engine off idol oil pressure would be high (30-40 psi)no problem .❤ this bike was my dad‘s baby. It is absolutely cherry. Low miles. Everything has been overhauled or updated. With the exception of the lower end. Thank you for your time.

Nice work, simple enough concept, guess if you want it a little smaller then you can face the blocks off. I can imagine that needs an awful lot of pressure to compress the cable? Do you think there would be any benefit in hardening the formers?

Thats a really nice multimeter Ade. I am very glad you were able to repair it.

A very nice piece of kit. Perhaps it had too many amps at some time. I had a similar (poorer quality for sure) meter made by Micronta. Best wishes, Dean.

Brilliant job Ade. Very neatly done. Best wishes, Dean.

Hi Ade, glad to see your keeping well mate 🙂

I unfortunately let the spring clip gap in the gap of the fork, dont ever do that ,it's a nightmare to get it out again

Good work, that lathe set up looked "sketchy" - I noticed you were well to the right of the faceplate when that lot was turning. Don't blame you.

I can only see a very narrow strip up the middle of the screen. You have a problem with your camera.

Where'd you get that tap?

While your clamping down force was adequate you should have provided some lateral movement provision on the rod end. Even with small cuts the rod end could have moved and at the very least chattered.

Hi - I have an A10 front with a not great front brake. I might do a TLS conversion but I figured that a 'true' drum is a good idea whether I do or don't so I'd start with that. If the SLS then works well enough, happy days. If not, think about TLS conversion. I like your method. I have a miller but it's not big enough to do a wheel. Do you offer a service to true a drum? If so, where are you and what would be the cost? Cheers, Chris
