Bearings should be replaced regularly.
[How is it used?
The other day, I received a VTR1000SP2 from an acquaintance that had been neglected for a long time. I decided to replace the wheel bearing and oil seal. This part is the bearing of the unit to install the Sprocket. I don't think there is a universal product because it is a special product. I haven't looked for it.

At the same time as replacing the Tire.
[How is it used?
I bought a used VTR1000SP-2, it had a 10 year old Tire on it and I didn't want it to die so I replaced the Tire. I replaced the Hub damper at the same time because I had to remove the Rear wheel anyway, and I don't always know if or when the Rubber parts come out, and I don't know when the Rubber parts that are on it now have been replaced. I have replaced the Hub damper on the body I bought used with a new one for some reason. I guess it is a ritual in my mind.

Simply snap it in. Easy Refresh.

It would be a good idea to replace them periodically as it will reduce Shock during Shift and when putting into 1st gear at stoplights.

Genuine Yamaha Bearing for YZF600 2001
This bike came in for a bit of an overhaul in the engine department and needed a few parts to finish the project. One of the main issues was a bad transmission bearing which when removed had seen better days. The bike did have over 95,000 miles on it so was probably due anyway. Finding the right part was easy as I used the tools Webike provide in their help section and then I cross referenced it on Yamaha schematics to be sure. The bearing was surprisingly good value and better than I could source locally. With some other smaller parts, I got them all shipped together using EMS as my couier. My order arrived in 5 days, undamaged and perfect condition throughout. The bearing did come in the Yamaha box and was padded with bubble wrap around the outside. The bearing itself is a pretty big one for this bike. The hard part was getting the old one out as there were also some corrosion on that. The new bearing runs smooth, has a slick movement and fitting in perfect with the right drift tool. There is a long way to go before this bike can be started again but just the mechanical movement by hand and there were no nasty sounds coming from that area now. Job done. Thanks Webike, great work.

Genuine Honda Oil Filter for Honda CB50R Dream 2004
This little beauty came in for a service and air, oil and filter change. Not really sure how long this has been needing the service but it was long overdue. Finding the right oil filter was pretty easy if you know how. I cross referenced with Honda schematics and found the oil filter on Webike website. The price Webike had this for was actually on offer at the time so was better than I could source locally. For some reason, these are not easy to get in the UK, maybe the bikes are not that popular here. Anyway, with a couple of other small parts I had my order shipped together to save on some postage costs. EMS got my order delivered in 5 days which was great for me, I know when my orders will arrive. This was packaged really well and carefullytoo. The oil filter is a standard shape but is specific for this model. It fitted really easily and the qualoity does show when you are handling it. Very well made and no flaws that I could see. Now the bike just needs a little warm up and away she goes. Brilliant. View detail

Genuine Yamaha Button Head Bolt for FZ6R 2013
This was a bolt I needed to get to fix a customers bike that came in with a lot of annoyoing issues. There were a lot of bolts that wer either missing or just rounded off too much to be useful. I found the right part by using the help section on Webike and then cross referencing with Yamaha schematics to be sure. The bolt was a really goo price so I got a couple of them for spares too. I always have more than one item per order as this cuts down on the amount of shipping in the long run. EMS was my chosen courier and in 5 days my order arrived. All the small parts were well packaged and inside a made up bubble wrap envelope by Webike warehouse. The button head bolts are factory standard and came in the Yamaha packet. The bolt heads are well rounded on the profile and the threaded section is good all around. In the past I have had issues when people use the wrong size to remove these and the head just gets chewed up. It appears that Yamaha have improved these bolts so I am confident this will last a while in the future. Fitting a side cover to the bike and this was a perfect fitment. One less job to do to get this bike back in it's original condition. Thanks Webike View detail

Genuine Yamaha Throttle Cable Clamp for YZF-R1 2020
This was bothering me as it was missing for some reason when this bike came in for a service. Yes, it is a simple throttle cable clamp that holds in place going under the front tank but I wanted to add one back. Finding the part was a little tricky but managed to track it down using Yamaha schematics. With a couple of other small brackets and bolts for this bike, I had them all shipped using EMS and my order arrived in 5 days. The packaging for the whole order was excellent and no damage to anything. The clamp came in the Yamaha packet and was inside a bubble wrap envelope. The clamp is well made and fits the shape precisely. The small bolt hole is perfect and aligns as it should. It is finished in the standard satin black Yamaha paint. Job sorted and now my ocd is at rest. Very pleased for a small price. Thanks Webike. View detail

ESTRELLA's crying place.
ESTRELLA's Restore, which has become immobile, maybe the end of the line here.
Just before it became immobile, it was leaking oil frequently, and I was looking for various causes this time while restoring it.
(1) Deterioration of Piston ring → done.
(2) CamTensioner problems→done.
(3) Gasket degradation → done.
I have been repairing the grains in various ways, but there was a blind spot.
There was oil leakage from the root of the oil pipe on the crank side.
Is it Gasket?
I took it off for a test, and as I expected, it was Gasket. I replaced it.
Oil pipe, as the name implies, is a pipe through which oil passes, but why is it attached?
It has to do with oil pumps.
Oil pump
Equipped on the lower front side of the cylinder block and driven in conjunction with the crankshaft.
The OilCleaner sucks up oil accumulated in the oil pan and supplies oil to the sliding parts of the cylinder head and cylinder block. 。
Think of it as gravity, so Oil goes down too, it accumulates in the Oil pan.
The oil pipe is where the oil passes through.
Oil pipe
Oil pipe is a piping that serves as a route to feed engine oil. 。 Engine oil plays a role in lubrication and cooling, and oil leaks can cause seizure and other problems. 。 Also called oil transmission pipe.
Engine oil not only lubricates the engine, but also cools it.
If the engine is air-cooled, the engine oil cooling effect is even more important.
And if the oil as an auxiliary role for cooling does not circulate correctly due to leakage, .......
→If the amount of engine oil is less than the proper amount, a strange noise may occur while driving, or the engine sound may become louder than usual. 。 In addition, low engine oil reduces the natural lubricating effect of the engine, causing a risk of engine seizure in some cases.
In my case, I don't know why it didn't burn out... I was able to manage to ride it while adding oil... now that I think about it, it's scary (laughs).
Gasket replacement.
Procedure
Remove the oil pipe from the cylinder head side, the carburetor side, and the crankcase side.
↓
(2) Gasket of rubber is confirmed at the tip of the pipe on the crankcase side. 。
↓
Replace (3).
↓
Assemble in the order of ? ?→?.
[After exchange]
◎Oil leaks are completely gone 。
◎A little test drive made it run Smooth.
This completely fixed the Oil leak. 。
Regardless of the year, it is a part that comes in contact with oil, so deterioration is to be expected. If you feel oil leakage even a little, it may be a good idea to suspect this part. 。
It seems that ESTRELLA has many examples of repairs here (laughs).
The only thing left to do is to adjust Tappet.

If the vehicle is in the 90's, I would recommend replacement.
I started Restore of ESTRELLA, which is no longer ridden and immobilized.
Just before I stopped riding, I had frequent oil leaks, and I was looking for various causes this time while I was restoring the car.
(1) Deterioration of Piston ring → done.
(2) CamTensioner problems→this time.
(3) Gasket degradation→ yet.
I would like to look at the Camshaft Chain Tensioner.
I was suspicious because of the following symptoms
▲Oil leak
▲Engine noise is annoying and rattles.
The higher the rpm, the slower it gets.
Because of the symptoms of the disease.
[Camshaft Chain Tensioner]
It is designed to prevent the camshaft chain from loosening or sagging, and is made of rubber or spring. 。 The camshaft chain is a very large component located above the cylinder head.
If there is a problem with the Chain tensioner...
Oil leaks or oozes, rattling noises when cold, and the Engine warning light may come on. 。 The chain tensioner is attached to the chain line between the camshaft and crankshaft inside the engine in connection with the chain slider.
It seems that the Camshaft Chain starts to stretch after 20,000km, and the failure of ESTRELLA seems to be a design defect depending on the year. I have an Initial Model, so bingo!
The Camshaft Chain Tensioner is supposed to maintain the proper tension of the Camshaft Chain so that it does not go out of control, but since it is defective, the Camshaft Chain is running out of control while it is stretched.
I would like to make an exchange.
According to the story, after 2000, Tensioner is the countermeasure, so I used that one.
It seems that there are a lot of Tensioner's galling in the 90's cars.
Procedure
(1) Open the Head and remove the Tensioner. 。
Open the Head from the vehicle Left and remove the Tensioner. 。 You just take Bolt in two places.
The old Tensioner has some signs of being scraped by friction. I guess it was probably scraped by rubbing against the Camshaft Chain.
↓
(2) Put on a new Tensioner.
↓
(3) Complete with Head's Cover.
Oil can be worked without removing it. However, it is easier to work if the vehicle body is level, so it is recommended to use a center stand.
[After exchange]
The Tappet sound is bothersome, but the clattering sound is gone.
There is no oil leak near the cylinder, but there seems to be oil leak near the oil line, so it will take more time.
If you are driving a 90's vehicle like myself, or if you are planning to buy a used vehicle, I think you should replace the Tensioner with one from 2000 or later.
I believe that this repair is possible on an individual Level.

TZr50R Oil Filler Cap O-ring
[How is it used?
Used for EngineO/H of YAMAHA/TZr50R.
This item is an O-ring of Oil Filler Cap.
It is not a part that needs to be replaced, but we replaced it because it was a good opportunity to do so.
How was your experience with it?
OEM parts are the only choice for engine parts. There is no problem with quality.
I compared it with the old O-ring, but the old one was still hardened.
Oil does not leak from this area, but does it affect the pressure application?
How did it compare to other products?
There is no Other Brand Product, so there is no comparison. Even if there were, OEM would be the only choice.
[Points to note]
I installed it while taking care not to twist it during installation.

TZr50R 4EUEngine Water pumpSeal
[How is it used?
Used for EngineO/H of YAMAHA/TZr50R.
This item is a Water pumpSeal from ClutchCase.
This Seal is a MechanicalSeal, and if it fails, the Gear oil and Coolant will mix and cause the Gear oil to emulsify and become immobile.
Although there was no leak this time, we replaced it with a new one as a precautionary measure.
How was your experience with it?
OEM Parts is the only choice for Engine parts.
There is no problem with the quality. It is press-fitted, so it requires a hang to pull it out of the Case.
In my case, I used a Bearing Puller to pull it out. Or rather, I cannot pull it out otherwise.
When hammering, the amount of hammering was carefully measured with Caliper using Socket.
It seems to me that it would be good if we could be on the same side.
How did it compare to other products?
There is no Other Brand Product, so there is no comparison. Even if there were, OEM would be the only choice.
[Points to note]
Be careful not to hit too hard or too supple.
If it doesn't leak, it doesn't matter...

ESTRELLA's Crying Place
I started Restore of ESTRELLA, which was immobilized after I stopped riding it.
I was looking for the cause of the problem I felt at the time I was riding and was concerned about the restoration of the engine.
One of the causes we considered and replaced was the Piston ring.
[Piston ring]
Simply put, it is the Seal of compressed Gas.
The Piston ring acts as a seal when compressing the fuel/air mixture inside the Engine's Cylinder. 。 This maintains the pressure in the combustion chamber and keeps the Engine's Power.
Why did you think it was a Piston ring? ◆Why did you think of Piston ring?
*Looks like it's going up Oil.
Oil is running high...White smoke from the exhaust system while driving and engine oil is running low.
This is a symptom of oil wear→ Oil leaking from the gap between the Piston and Cylinder. Then, it is possible that the Oil leaks to the outside.
Here, we replaced it with an OEM product, not a low-priced external product, etc.
Piston ring replacement procedure
(1) Remove the cylinder head.
If you drop the Camshaft Chain down, you will have to lower it below the waist, so it is better to hang it with a needle gold with tension.
↓
(2) Remove the Ring of the Stopper with radio pliers and pull out the Piston Pin.
↓
(3) After the Clip is removed, press the inside Pin from the inside to easily pull it out and remove the Piston. 。
(4) Take out the old ring. It is deformed rather than chipped.
(5) Ring is correctly set to Quantity.:Set and Install 。 The order is ExpanderRing → top and bottom SteelRail→ Top ring→ SecondRing.
? Simply assemble in reverse order.
[After exchange]
White smoke from the Exhaust System is gone.
It seems that the Oil uplift was the right way to look at it.
However, the oil leakage does not seem to have stopped.
I would like to start on the next part.
The clearance between the cylinder and piston is very small (around 0.1mm), but this small gap makes it impossible to compress the air mixture and receive combustion pressure without loss.
It seems that there are many cases of malfunctions in ESTRELLA's Initial Model (90's), and one of them is oil leakage.
Initial Model's Piston ring is thin and has low strength.
If you suspect oil leakage as well as oil rise, you should consider replacement.
Oil leaks have not gone away yet, so next we will look at the Camshaft Chain Tensioner.

Please examine things carefully as this is a Large cut-off place.
We are currently working on a Restore of the immovable ESTRELLA,
We recently replaced a Camshaft Chain Tensioner.
Since the head cover was opened at that time, the head gasket was also replaced.
The original reason for the oil leak was the wear of the Tensioner, but since the oil was leaking through the →Gasket, the Gasket was unusable.
It would be wise to replace it. Basically, Gasket is not reusable.
Gasket and packing are used in various places, but what is the function of the gasket attached to the head cover?
[Head Gasket]
Gasket between the Cylinder block and Cylinder head of an internal combustion engine.
The seal must be strong enough to keep the internal pressure of the cylinder from escaping and to prevent coolant and engine oil from flowing into the cylinder, and it must have the highest strength of all the gaskets used for engines.
Why do we have to replace it?
Material of Head Gasket is Rubber 。
It deteriorates when exposed to outside air. In addition, the oil and the mixture of air are exposed to the air, so it is a very severe condition.
Deterioration may be severe.
[When it deteriorates...]
Oil cannot be held in place, which naturally leads to a decrease in oil.
As a result, the → combustion chamber suffers Damage! 。 The reduction in Oil will cause the Engine to burn out, further increasing repair costs and time.
The difference is obvious when you consider the cost of Gasket and the time it takes to change Gaskets (laughs).
Better to replace it before that happens.

[After exchange]
Oil leakage near the head cover has been completely eliminated.
However, there is an oil leak near the oil pump.
I am glad that after the purchase, I never had to open the Engine area at all.
Is Gasket a low-cost or OEM product?
Gasket is easily available at low prices and is often convenient and substitutable, but OEM products should be recommended.
Since the durability of the engine area and other parts is required for durability, it is better to choose an OEM product or a product equivalent to an OEM product if you intend to drive the car for a long time.

Safe and Secure OEM Parts
[How is it used?
Used for EngineO/H of YAMAHA/TZr50R.
This product is Oil seal on Crankshaft/Alternator side. (Crank seal？) to
When this Seal comes loose, 2ndOil leaks from the Crank to the Alternator side.
Although there was no leakage during the O/H this time, it was replaced as a preventive measure.
How was your experience with it?
OEM Parts is the only choice for Engine parts.
There is no problem with quality. Since it is press-fitted, it requires a hang to pull it out of the crank. In my case, I lightly drilled a hole with a drill, screwed in the bolt, and pulled it out with pliers.
When hammering, the amount of hammering was carefully measured with Caliper using Socket.
How did it compare to other products?
There is no Other Brand Product, so there is no comparison. Even if there were, OEM would be the only choice.
[Points to note]
Be careful not to hit too hard or too supple.
If it doesn't leak, it doesn't matter...
