Bit of a tip for re installing fork cap, prior to putting the springs in install the cap until the threads just catch, make a sharpy mark on the cap and fork inline, then put the spring in and line the cap up about 1/4 turn from the marks lining up so you are right at the point of it catching, makes it a bit easier when fighting with a spring

MAN! Such a color difference with the old oil and the fresh oil. I'm willing to bet one of my basses that oil has never been changed.

Nicely done.
I’ve found the best device to fill forks is a large veterinarian syringe. With a capacity of 100ml, it’s SO easy to fill the forks with no mess & no fuss. Plus you attach plastic tubing to it and suck oil/ brake fluid/ clutch fluid out.
Also, it’s highly accurate, and you get the complete and correct amounts of fork oil in.
I found using exactly that jug you did, that there’s at least 10-15ml left in it.Unless you leave it upended over the forks to drain in. But no one does.
I also wrap the body of the syringe with clear Sellotape to preserve the measurement markings.
They’re also great for reverse brake bleeding; and clutch bleeding.
With different syringes of course.

Never seen drain plugs like that on a fork. I usually see them through the bottom and you have to remove the axel to get them. That was quite easy. Wouldn’t mind doing them every year in that case.

I'm always afraid to say "this should be an easy job" or even think it. 😁😄🤣 Nice to catch a break once in a while. Any bike that rolls through the doors of your shop is destined for some serious TLC. Glad to see you and Penny got a day off last week. You both certainly deserve it. Cheers and Thanks as always.❤👍👍

Nice to have an easy day getting back to work, glad you’ve recovered 👍🏻

[bsv]

As easy as that, another job well done

[pauldavis]

Great video as always! That fork oil was filthy! So it always pays to stick to the maintenance schedule! Take care Del

I've just discovered your videos over the last week and I absolutely love them, not only are they incredibly relaxing, they are also the best videos I've ever seen on motorbike mechanics, and you 100% have the highest "knowledge imparted to words spoken" ratio of the whole internet. Watching these as I rebuild by little AJP PR3 is making much more confident I'm doing the right thing.
Thank you for the time and effort you have invested in these! Having some a small amount of editing myself, I can't imagine the hours you put in.

Amazing drain bolt.oh and good job.thanks😊

[howder]

Great vid, I am somewhat overdue! Cheers!

[arnybarmy]

Good to see you back Del - You don't need to feel pressure if you aren't felling at your best - I am sure everyone understands and would much rather you had good health!!!! (And if they don't understand then why they even watching the channel?). Love and hugs to you both - J

[blackops]

Hey Delboy, ive been watching your older videos a while now... i have ran into a problem with my yamaha r6.
Whenever the bike is rolling it feels bumpy on the rear almost as if something is stuck on the tyre.
I checked the tyre which is new and not punctured, the pressure is well in spec.
I just cant seem to figure this one out?? Any advice? Could it be a worn bearing? Its only coming from the rear

[MintyGusto]

Awesome video and refreshing to see drain plugs on forks that actually, well, just work! Hope you and the lovely P are both well mate - glad to see you back though!

[Almightyrastus]

Mmmm, I bet that smells like all the fun... Old and worn out heavy oil is a scent that I remember only too well from doing gearbox, transfer case, steering box, and both axles on my old '61 Land Rover. Nice touch with the little drain plugs though, makes a nice change from taking the forks off or having to remove the wheel to get at a similar point.

[vazza]

Top job as always Del. Fork oil was nasty!!!! Nice fresh oil, 👍 Thanks for video 👍

[renzovc]

Great video as always brother !! learned something new about draining fork oil. Great DIY for sure brother, and yes it definitely needed it some fresh fluid ! keep up the great work brother ! stay safe guys cheers from new york !!!!🍺🍺🍺

[oilageman]

Wish I’d seen this last year when I did my Dyna! Those soft grips would have been a must. I struggled to find the correct socket for those tops. Might be worth a link to that Del? Word of warning, when I pumped mine it went all over my brake discs! Might want to cover those too. Thanks D & P.

[eddiegerlach]

Checked both my 04 Sporty XL1200C and my 05 Dyna Low Rider..I have those drain screws, too. Thanks for the video, as I now need to change the fork fluids since I haven't a clue as to past history and seeing your fluids kinda freaked me out a bit. 😳👍

What was the torque of the fork pinch bolt?
