For the first time ever I work on someone else's bike!

Jason has been a follower of the channel for a long time and reached out to me to see if I could help him get his Triumph Trident back on the road after it's been sat for 5 years!

I remove the tank, petrol tap, brake callipers and carburettors, take them away and get them ready for refurbishing.

Enjoy!

I really enjoy watching these videos, they help me realise I'm not so bad at fixing bikes after all.... But I do like your never say die attitude. 😂😂

Whet every motorbike mechanicing you tube chanel needs is a brake lever and master cylinder mounted on a bar to connect to calipers to push pistons out 🎉

I’ve been in similar situations and wanted to throw in the towel but perseverance is key…good work! Maybe another vacation is in order like Japan. I really liked those videos 😊.

Your Heath Robinson setup clamping the brake caliper to the Suzuki's grab rail was admirable - but the timing of it falling apart was priceless! 😀😀😃👍

Another great video thanks Ash and what a fantastic thing to do for someone. Perhaps you could do something similar as a prize when you have got your workshop sorted?
Keep up the good work Sir!
