Video rebuild

Part of the reason to raise this is to find out what are the OMG don’t do that. I think one is to not put oil behind the bearing shells, but correct me if I’m wrong.

You are correct Greg. Oil under the bearing shells is definitely wrong. You knew that and I'm sure you didn't do it but, if someone watches that Vid and does as that builder did, it could end in tears. I think this is what causes me most concern, that chap obviously thinks its the thing to do but, its not, so are the rest of the people using this vid as a guide doing the same?
Rozabikes Tim:
I looked at that some months ago and although a good guide, even with my limited knowledge, things were wrong or missing. I referred to the clutch nut removal from that vid in another post. Felt he was feeling his way, as at the beginning he said it was the first Jap motor he had worked on. However credit to him for taking the time to do it.
Sure with the skills on this site we could do much better :D

do you think it's wrong to put oil on the outside of the ball bearings why not oil the balls ? also I think there was to much blue sealant on the cases looking how much squeezed out it might go inwards to
Greg65:
Now I’m sure I will be corrected if wrong but can see no problem with oil on ball bearings. I agree that the blue was excessive. I believe from the senior ward sister a smear (not a test) is all that is required. Standby for corrections.
