Thanks 👍🏻
Thx vers useful!

Does this sound normal? Seems like a lot of clicking. I added a new tensioner, kept tension like in your video, heard a click, but now it sounds quite a bit different than when you turn it over. Spark plugs are in.
Wierd this just came up. Got to do this job on Monday.
👍🏻 how’d it go?
@@MuddySump I think the bike I’ve got your shop has actually serviced it a couple of times. Its got your stamp in the book. I’ve watched your video on doing the valve clearances. Parts are not cheap for the xc I got but I love riding it. Perfect weight plenty of grunt in all gears. As for the chain and sprocket. It arrived this morning.
@@brentonsmith-pw2rp it will have been me. Self employed mobile mechanic
Can this be replaced without removing the valve cover? I just did the 24k valve clearance inspection on my 2016 800xc and they were all in spec, but I'm getting occasional cam chain rattle on startup, usually when it's hot and has sat a few minutes. Currently at 28,500 miles. The rattle lasts 5-7 seconds when it does happen.
You can take it out but you’ll need to take the crank cover off so you can keep tension on the chain until you put the new one in and turn the engine over to release the clip.
@@MuddySump thanks, I figure I'll replace it since it's about $120, cheap insurance. If that doesn't fix it perhaps the chain has stretched?
@@svtcobra66 more than likely the tensioner. They’re supposed to hold the oil in but don’t always do rattles till it builds up the oil pressure again
The manual calls for turning the crank backwards 1/4 turn before doing 4 CW Turns. Doing that has always resulted in a jumped tooth for me, requiring repetition of all steps (remove tensioner, ladder, camshafts, reset...). The manual is utter garbage at times.
I just turn it forwards now.
@@MuddySumpyeah I think that's the best way
What year is this tiger?
2012
Thank you for your participation in the tiger community and youtube videos man 🙏🏼
No problem 👍🏻
Watched a few of your DRZ vida now, No messing. Simple. To the point. Cheers mate
Thanks 👍🏻
Is every day like their 1st day?
Yes. It gets easier. I’ll probably be like that again now, haven’t been out on a dirt bike since 2018 😞
What if after you fill the expansion bottle to the minimum mark and run the bike until the fan comes on, the coolant level rises on its own to the maximum mark?
You’ve got air in the system or the radiator cap isn’t working properly
@@MuddySump if I could bother you to ask another question, how would I go about getting the air out? Squeezing the air hose does not release any more bubbles
@@wyattcooper2041 When its ran up to temperature and the fan comes on it should pull the water from the expansion bottle into the radiator. If it's going up and down all the time try a new cap
Thanks 🙏
Hope it helped 👍🏻
nice job 👍
Thanks
Brilliant video, helped me so much, and no silly intro,s or music. Excellent thank you.
Thanks 👍🏻 I did think I should have made them a bit more entertaining but everyone seems to appreciate that I didn’t
Fantastic video(s)! I must be missing something obvious here, as my local Triumph dealer wants £900 for the 12k valve check on a 2014 Tiger 800. So if the valves are all good and nothing needs changing this seems like a very straight forward job for £900. I do understand that if the cams have to come out and shims sorted etc then this is naturally a much much bigger job. surely there should be two different costs perhaps from Triumph?
I think they’ll charge you more if they have to adjust the valves and that will be the price to just check them. Where about are you that they charge £900? Staffordshire triumph seems the worst with £1205 for a 12k on a first gen 800.
Problem with spring on carburetor
No
Think this has inspired me to buy a himalayan...lol.
Get a Harley. All you’ve got to do with those is change the oil. Worked there before triumph and wondered why I’ve gone somewhere to do more work for the same money 😅
I’ve a triumph tiger 800 xca would these Rox risers fit on the bike with plenty of room for cable movement.
Mine was the xc with the same risers as standard. They fit on still but you can’t fit them at any angle. Still got to make sure the cables can move freely
11 years later I’m watching this before taking my wheels to get new tires mounted
🤙🏼
Thank you brother
👍🏻
Thks for the video need to do this on mine 🫶🤟
👍🏻 when putting the new link in to fasten the chain back together do it around the rear sprocket. It’s a lot more stable
I love how simple this looks except whoever worked on my bike last fitted the pin cover so tight that im buggered at first of the easy stuff! FFS, great vid though. 👍
People love to over tighten those covers.
Thank you for that, ive just got my spring back from an overhaul and had the circlip and bottom ring seperate so wondered how to reinstall it, many thanks
👍🏻
Nice video, but I am wondering where you got this nice cabin ftom the doirs and the windshield?
Don’t know what you mean.
I ride almost always in deep silty sand. At 12000 miles I decided to change my chain and sprockets. The old chain seemed fine, however. Front sprocket was chewed up, rear seemed fine. I put a hybrid sprocket on rear, with aluminum insert, new front and new chain. 5000 miles later, the hybrid sprocket, which actually weighed nearly same as stock, thick steel one, had cracked. I put the original back on. Bike is a beast.
👍🏻 I need to get mine back on the road. It’s sat at the side of my garage for about 8 years
No way you pulled out those coils that easy.
Yes way. I sometimes use an 8mm allen key as a pry bar on some other bikes though.
@@MuddySump thanks man. Used an Allen key wrapped in a cloth and it came out nice.
It could look simple, but right before this video I had no idea how to install one of those pins. This video save my life.
🫡
I thought they were meant to be sideways. Thinking about it though, I can see the maximum thickness of cotter pin metal is shear resisting the nut from twisting loose.
The top of the pin is too wide to go in between the slots of the nut sideways too
Hey there. Can you tell me if this is the same for a 2015 model?
Yes. Only difference is the way the side panels come off because they are 1 piece now instead of 2
@@MuddySump Thanks for that.
How do you check the level i have 08 drz 400s?
You have to take them apart and check the gap from the top of the fork to the oil with the fork compressed. It’s the air gap that you measure
@MuddySump so not easy like checking engine oil?
@@Treeclimbingexpertno, it doesn’t needing checking like engine oil though. It’s just when you do a fork oil change
10 Years later - the video helped me (2001 DRZ400e). Thanks!
👍🏻
Is it big bore drz400?
Standard engine
Hello, is it the same operation for the Tiger 900 gt ? Thank you. 😊
I haven’t worked on them but probably around the same.
Tip: The crankshaft cover bolt comes off easy if you run the motor and get it warm first.
👍🏻
Thanks man. Just completed. Much appreciated 🙏
👍🏻
Hello. I am writing from Turkey. I own a 2016 model Tiger 800. I can't find the original coolant here. Is there a brand you can recommend as an alternative?
I only use the original coolant to keep things simple. If you change type or colour you’ll have to flush the system through. It’s probably got the old green oat coolant in your bike. It’s changed to a pink colour now
Any experience with lowering links , i was just gives an 01 drz and its quite tall and I'm not
Not on the drz but seen on other adventure bikes. You’ll want some longer links to lower the bike at the back and push the forks further up in the clamps too to make it level again
I've been following your videos to do my valves. Super helpful! Thank you. We have the exact same bike. (Badass black😁) I'd love to know where you got that little 1/4" extension. It looks great, with a swivel ball at one end to avoid using a separate angle adapter which can mess with your torque specs, and I like the gnarled surface so you can use by hand too. Haven't been able to find anything like it here in Canada. Sometimes the smallest tools like this can be huge when you're working on the bike.
Thanks. The tools will more than likely be from Halfords, a motor shop we have here in the uk. The tools come with life time warranty too so pretty good quality and a decent price.
What size is the drainplug crush washer?
15mm
Wrong. Doing it this way will likely put your right fork in a bind and the suspension won't perform properly. It may also cause fork leaks.
Never had any problems doing it that way
@@MuddySump I didn't every time, but had fork leaks on two different bikes after replacing a front tire. Once I was shown how to do it right, I never had the problem again. It doesn't take any longer, just a matter of bouncing the wheel to align it, and the sequence of tightening the bolts.
I have just done a coolant change yesterday with the help of this video. It was super helpful, but I have done the things a little differently. The clamp on the hose you used to drain was hard to remove (it was not worm type like yours) so I have done it through the heat exchanger (as per the manual). Also your bleeding procedure was a lot easier. I had to shake the bike quite a bit before it took the required coolant
👍🏻 they changed the clamps to clips on later models and all the newer bikes now. Can be a bit of a pain to get off sometimes. You can get some special pliers for them but I just use some water pump pliers
Hi, is this Tiger model with ABS. You do not need dijagnostics ? Thanks
None abs model.
Muy buen video😊
👍🏻
Hi Love your videos, I have a 2016 tiger 800 xcx, coming up to 55k miles. I assume valve clearance is a must but what else would you advise, plus how much would you charge if you did it?
60k service is the next major service. Air filter and spark plugs get changed then too. Oil and filter, grease bearings…. £450 for that service
@@MuddySump how much notice do you need
@@bikeboats6616 depends where you are. First half of next year is already full.
Great trails, but the most irritating 'music' ? ever....!
😂 very true. Just had to play it to see what the music was. It was 8 years ago when I thought you had to find some free music to put on videos
Great videos thank you.
👍🏻
You should do asmr
Hi Muddysump! Im thinking of changing my own tires in the future. The mecanic at the workshop I normally go to advised me against this though as this would be a really hard job, especially with the tiger 800 xc rims. I was wondering if you agree? I wanted to invest is eastbound levers with bead breaker to get the tires of cause I could also use this on the road. Would really like to hear your thoughts on it!
I’ve only ever changed my dirt bike tyres with hand tools. You can do it, will get easier the more you get used to changing them. Will need to balance them afterwards as well though. You’ll definitely feel an out of balance wheel when you start getting some speed up on the road
