Changing Tires + Chain & Sprockets + Brake Bleed for 1st RIDE on Wrecked Yamaha R1 Rebuild - Part 11

After restarting the engine on the last video https://youtu.be/vqERqT2SPHE I wanted to ride the bike…
So today it’s time to put new tires on, a chain and sprockets kit (520 conversion) and bleed the brakes 🔧

So I ordered new tires and I started to swing tires irons around 😅

The chain and sprocket kit I chose is a 520 conversion kit, so big weight savings and less friction on the menu.
It fits very nicely too!

And now, I need brakes since the engine is linked to the rear wheel and I don’t want to climb trees if my clutch cable or other life delicacy happens after I start it 🤞

So I bleed my brakes front and rear to control that monster of a bike if anything goes south

Once the new battery is on it’s time to go for a quick spin, that’s my first motorcycle ride since I’m in the US 🇺🇸

I hope you enjoy!

Hi I'm Tristan!
I live in New York and when I'm not working on my fitness clothing line (https://yoked.net) I DIY with intensity 😅
For now, I restore wrecked motorcycles. So I disassemble, weld, machine and fix those bikes so they can go back on the road!
