10 20 23 Cobban Bridge Final Visit
10-20-23 Today We pay a final visit to the Cobban bridge project. I started out with a video of the old bridge with its wood deck. The next video showed the bridge under construction and the last video will be the bridge in its completed condition with a drive over video. Thank you again to the famous Helper Lady for assisting in the drone spotting and for just being fun to be with. Do something nice for someone today.

10-17-23 It was time to check on the apartments that are being built on the old Shopko site. They are much bigger than I thought they were going to be. We also have a first time visit from Helper Lady. She will be the new spotter on future videos. I have ordered my remote ID to conform with the new FAA rules and will install that when it comes. Remote ID sends a signal to identify the drone fly...

03-25-23 Lets see what's new around Woodmans today. There has been a lot of construction in this area. Apartment buildings are flying up throughout the city. It seems after Covid, people can't build fast enough. I lost my drone test field next to Woodmans due to construction of apartment buildings. The area is growing quickly and with the river running through the area there is still some sceni...
03 25 23 The New Cobban Bridge
Переглядів 103Рік тому
03-25-23 I was able to make it back up to the new Cobban Bridge. There was no-one working on the bridge, so we can take a look around without bothering anyone. At 46 degrees with strong sunlight, I wasn't complaining. It is always nice to get out as the temperatures start rising. After completing the video, I thought it might have been neat to get some of the video I have of the old bridge, and...

03-20-23 Well, it finally happened. They are tearing down the old Shopko store. The plan is to replace it with apartments. The area has changed quite a bit. They tore down Oleary's Pub and Mancinas Restaurant and made the Howard Johnson Hotel into apartments. Shopko Optical is back in a storefront with four other businesses. Spring is in the air, but winter is not giving up without a fight. Do ...

03-20-23 I had to check out the construction progress on the new university event center. This will replace Zorn Arena when it is done. I also did a quick pan around the area.

0-18-21 I was riding my motorcycle up highway 178 when I turned to my right and saw a dam I didn't recognize. I went back with the drone and found out it was the spillway for the Jim Falls dam in Jim Falls WI. I was hoping to see a few more leaves changing on the trees but it was still nice to get out on a beautiful 70 degree day. Do something nice for someone today.

08 27 21 2007 Honda VTX 1300r Front Tire Replacement
Переглядів 6 тис.2 роки тому
08-27-21 The front tire on my 2007 Honda VTX 1300r was the original tire. After 14 years I thought it might be time to change it. I also put in a new valve stem. I have always run Dunlop D404 tires and had good luck with them. They stick to the road pretty well but the rear tire lasts between 7000 and 10000 miles, with 8000 miles the norm. This time I decided to try Micheline Commander 2 tires....

08-13-21 If the inaccurate speedometer on your Honda VTX 1300 bothers you I found a solution. A company called Heal Tech Makes a unit called Speedohealer that will correct the error in your speedometer. It is very easy to install but you do need to know how much the error is. I do not get paid by them and I bought the one I have with my own money. It can also correct your speedometer if you cha...

08-13-21 Today I am going to install a new clutch cable on my 2007 Honda VTX 1300r and adjust it. It was a pretty simple job and does not require a lot of tools. This is something I replaced because of age rather than failure. If your bike has a hydraulic clutch like you will find on a VTX 1800 this procedure will not apply to your bike. As usual, I am not a professional motorcycle mechanic and...

07-22-21 Come along as I change the coolant on my 2007 Honda VTX 1300r. This is the last fluid change I had to do. I bought the bike with 5600 miles on it and am working on making a base line for maintenance because I am not sure what was done to the bike before I bought it. Although I am a weekend mechanic wannabe, I get a satisfaction doing my own work. It makes me more one with the bike when...

Note: One error I caught in the video states that when brake fluid absorbs moisture the boiling point is raised. I meant to say the boiling point is reduced. When brake fluid reaches the boiling point you will start to lose braking because there will be vapor and liquid in your brake system. A gas is compressible and the brakes will get spongy. 07-17-21 Today I am flushing the brake fluid on my...

So no re-lubing of anything 🤔
Front wheel bearings are sealed. A light coat of grease on the axle may help in assembly.
The 07 1300c is so different
I would like to see how easily you got the jack under the bike. The 17mm Allen was way to big for my 07 1300c.
You have to tip the bike up straight in order to get the jack under on my bike. Then it will slide right in.
@@OnTheEdgeNow I wonder why my craftsman bike jack sucks!
@@rushtk2112 I bought an OTC jack. The arms are longer than most, so it is easier to place under the bike.
What are the torque specs?
Thanks, very helpful, along with the comments too, serves to make this job a bit easier.
Is there a thermostat in these bikes? Thank You for this video 😊👍
My Mother was born & raised in this town, a lot of fond memories here. She was a Jacobson
Missed my house 🏠
Thanks for the info
You are welcome.
I have never ever in all the hundreds and hundreds of filters that I have changed ever. Did I not put a glaze of oil on the rubber gasket so it doesn't bind up when you're putting it on?
A lot of new filters come pre-lubed now.
Have a friend who has cabin on lost land lake love that place
Thank you!
You are welcome.
05/2024 I didn't remove mufflers to do mine, not nessasary.
Thank you! Really well done 😊
You are welcome. Hope the video helps you out.
No, I used Honda HG extended life antifreeze Type 2. I bought mine as a 50/50 mix.
One question, did you put car antifreeze in it?
You missed half the town. Businesses South on Hwy 13 and more North on Hwy13. Good job of the down town business district.
I live in Winter, not in the village where you filmed but in countryside.
It would have been nice if there was a detailed explanation of how to connect the external gas tank. Do you have any intention of making a video about the external gas tank connection?
I have had a few questions about the external gas tank I use, so I will make a short video when the weather gets a little better.
Nie trzeba nasmarować nowej linki?
Looks way easier than removing the forks.
It would have been better if you could tell me how to connect the external tank.
What a nightmare just to get at a battery, you would think the manufacturers would make it a lot easier, i had a bimota and all you did was remove 2 bolts and cover the remove another 2 bolts to remove the strap that holds down the battery and undo the battery posts and remove battery, probably less than 5 minutes.
Great video, thank God i found you, ive been scratching my head for a while, looked at another video and he said, just undo the 2 bolts each side and lift the whole thing off, idiot, great video and nicely explained, thankyou.
This was good ! I really liked it .
What floorboards and controls are you using?
They are the stock controls that come on the 1300r model.
Nice video, quick question. Where do you disposal the old oil left in the pan??
In my area you can take used oil to an automotive repair shop. Most places will take small quantities for free or a small fee. By looking on the internet, you should be able to find places locally that will recycle it.
Whats the bolt pattern for the motors?
I am not sure if I understand your question, but there are four bolts that hold the motor on. The shell has to be split in two to get access to the wires.
@@OnTheEdgeNow I'm replace all the guts of phantom 3. Was searching bigger motors. Found its 19x16
@divingfalconfpv4602 OH, I gotcha. Glad you found the info.
New resident to Siren. This whole time I thought you were flying yourself. Lol
When I started doing drone videos, my friend said they were boring. I thought about using sound effects and came across the jet engine. When I played the video back, for some reason, it struck me funny. I have been using it ever since.
Should drain the gear lube on the side stand so it all drains out. Then refill it with the bike level.
I couldn't figure out how to get that top bolt back on without doing some damage to myself haha so I just removed the forks all together. Wasn't so bad! Then you can just dump the oil out and it's much easier to thread when they're off the bike. Great video, thank you for taking the time!
I have an 06..and my speedometer is off by 7mph
Forget the speedo not being accurate... the fuel gauge... isn't even there. Even though the tank cap is right there, and a twisty fuel gauge could go right in it. I think I'll just go up one tire size to make the speedo more accurate if that is a problem.
Funnels are for crybabies! That made me laugh! Really great video, thank you for taking the time to make it. Very helpful. I'm incredibly impressed by how clean your bike is! I have the same bike, same year and it's nowhere near as clean. I have work to do!
You do realize the gps speed on your phone is not accurate. Your best method is finding mileage, markers and timing yourself or finding a LE that would be willing to help you calibrate it when you have new tires on the bike.
Can the spring be left in there and still change and fill the oil?? Just curious.
You fill the fork with fork oil from the top of the tube, so to the best of my knowledge, you have to take the cap off the top.
@@OnTheEdgeNow Of course the cap has to come off. But it looks like the spring can be left in there and the oil still filled.
Great video. I didn't see your external gas tank setup. Can you share it and how to make or buy one? Thanks Ray
If you do a search on Amizon for motorcycle axillary fuel tanks you will see a few choices. I don't use it often, but sometimes it is easier to work on a motor with the tank off.
Love all three of them! Vmax being my favourite😎
So what screws are you adjusting to sink the carbs on the z1
There are screws with jamb nuts on each carburetor that open or close the throttle plate to balance the vacuum to each carburetor.
Thank you my man 👍
You are welcome.
@10:34 using same smartwatch face.
What’s wrong with the carburetors on it
It was worn out from many years of use.
Wonder if you can use a fluid extractor to get the oil out?
Excellent idea. I never thought of that.
I just bought a vstar used, I’m used to riding bikes but this one seems suuuuper difficult to roll in neutral. Is this normal? I was watching this video becuase I might take my wheels off to see if something is off.
Update : the brake pads were rusted/calipers nearly seized. Original owner only put 200 miles on it in 12 years 😂
It seems like all motorcycle speedometers are incorrect
Thank you for a great tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent. Beautiful scenery. I love the Chippewa River. You should demonstrate your drone flying prowess by flying UNDER the bridge.
This turned out to be one beautiful year for the trees' turning color. As for flying under the bridge, you give me way more credit for my flying skills than I deserve. Instead of a video of the Cobban bridge, it would be a video on The Underwater Adventures of Jacques Cousteau.
🤣@@OnTheEdgeNow
The footings with the 2 elevator shafts to the west of the event center are for a hotel. I heard they were suppose to put one in.
Thanks for the information.

#ontheedgeineauclaire. I would love to use this footage in a documentary I am using about Cornell.
You have my permission with one stipulation. You cannot make any money or financial gain by using the video. I do not have a part 107 drone license so there cannot be any financial profit made off this video. That being said, to keep the government happy, I love it when history or present times are changed into documenting or preserving our small-town heritage. Thank you for doing that.
