I Saved 8 Motorcycles From The Scrapyard!

I bought 8 bikes and this is officially my biggest motorcycle purchase yet! I was not on the hunt for these but when a friend reaches out about a deal like this I had to jump. These bikes were going to go to scrap and had to be saved! If you are interested in purchasing the Bridgestones or CB77s please get in contact with me.
Bikes for Sale album on Facebook: media/set/?s...
When I listed the CB450s for sale I had a person interested in them for parts. He just happened to send me a photo of his bike and I noticed the 1974 CB450 behind it. I simply asked about it and we ended up working a trade so everyone was happy! This is part of the wheeling and dealing I do so let me know if you want to see more on this type of thing.

This was such a crazy turn of events for obtaining these bikes. I know there will be many comments about how you "can't find these where I live" but I would have to disagree. I am diligent on my bike hunting and am always networking which is why I found the deals on all of these. I don't even entertain messages from those wanting me to find them a specific bike because I can locate one within moments and they never jump on the deals. They are out there but it is up to you to act quickly. My van stays fueled up for when those deal presents themselves. While I would love to share every single detail with you there are some things I strategically leave out such as prices so just know I won't be disclosing that information.

My problem do not find many bikes in my area that I can afford. Fixed income. But that leads me to looking at some tired, ruff one. I grew up with a father who loved old cars and would take me to some very old junkyards. He taught me to see the beauty in all of them. So now, even if it is totally impractical to fix one up, the longer I look at it, the more I love them. At some point, that time comes that I need to let it go if I can find someone who will help it, or part of it live on. It's not always easy.

I only found your channel earlier this year and I've been trying to catch up on the early stuff and work my way through in date order. However, when this came up on the YT home page, I had to see what you'd got. Always good to see old bikes being saved from the scrapyard, even if one is lost as needed as a donor bike. We do get quite a few ratty bikes in the UK imported from America and there is a lot of people saving them here as well, such as members of the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club. 2 of my 3 bikes are USA imports, a '79 DT175 Enduro and a '80 CB750 Custom. Keep up the good work. Your channel is both educational and enjoyable. Thanks a lot BJ.

Hi BJ, great content as always. A friend of mine here in the UK had a 185cc Bridgestone in the mid to late 1970's. The gearbox could be set to operate as a conventional 6 speed gearbox or it could be set to go from top gear straight to first. Couldn't understand that arrangement. There was also a 350cc Bridgestone available here , both bikes were 2 stroke twins with disc valve induction if memory serves me well . I remember the 185 being particularly fast for it's size at the time. I would love to get my hands on one of those CB77's .They were good bikes.

It's just like any modern Honda Cub. You coast to stop in top gear and change directly to first, without going through all the gears. Works great. On the Cubs, first is locked out until you are completely stopped.

Bro I love CB750s I have one complete with a kick start and it's the only reason I'm considering rebuilding the the the CB750 probably going to do a chopper or cafe build I know I want to strip, but not cut from the original shape of the bike maybe customize the handlebars and maybe a Harley Bat wing ferring with windshield and stereo with blue tooth tech

The dent on that 450s tank will hopefully pop out . Those grips were common in the late 1980s. I hated them as they were massive, and made my hands ache badly.

It is slightly creased but should be able to be made much less noticeable

@@BrickHouseBuilds the crease isn't showing on the video but hopefully you can still sort it out. A friend bought a 600 Bandit which had a dent in the top of the tank (paint was fine). They managed to get 99% of the dent out with one of the dent pullers that uses hot glue to stick a pully to the dent.
