I’m so stoked you dropped this video. I have CB500T I picked up for $75 and am looking for inspiration to continue working on it 😂 Do you have plans to do a CB450 or 500T by chance? 🤞🏽

Wow!!!...Amazing amount of work and progress...Love your attitude and presentation...You inspire people to get their hands dirty...Thanks...

Just home to the UK from work in France. It's 0130, and the TV is on for this video. I have a JD and Coke poured, and I can't wait 😁👍

Looks great and an amazing effort. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished bike. Thanks for videos. Really enjoy your work.

My zx10r dropped a valve last summer and yes i got a hole in piston, bent valve and to top it off bottom of cylinder head was gouged out so i needed a cylinder head also😢😢 but all is fixed now. Now i also have a 95 fzr600 with rod that went through lower cases. I personally view you as a fabricator because your vision goes beyond what you actually see in front of you and you make the changes yourself. 👍🏽😎👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🏁🏁🏁

It’s about trying and you did thinking it would be ok but motor wasn’t you did more than well ❤ proud of you .dont put you’re self down you are great ❤

Great job and great message to the viewers. Looked like a great time working in the shop all night. Love the bikes.

Really enjoyed the video. It popped up in my feed and seemed like something I might like. I did. One of the first things I noticed was the Spitfire in the background. My first car back in the early eighties was a 1970 mkIII. Between that and my 69 bug, they forced me to learn a lot about working on cars. I also noticed the F150 in the back. My first full size truck was an old ‘77 that I bought for $500. It wasn’t pretty but did serve me well. I would love to find another one. I look forward to the completion of this project. I am not sure about the 24 hour thing though. It is nice to have a chunk of time to work on a project because it takes a while to get your head in the project. But too long in the project I worry about fatigue impacting the quality of my decisions. Thanks for your work. Tim

Another really good one. Love the interlude music. Thanks.

Gess that is bad man . Your lucky as heck not to loose an eye . Dang .

Would love to see the seat mount fabrication! Great job!

great video! cant wait to watch it run!

Amazing work! With so much modesty! You re a master builder! Love that little bike the tank is so coool!!

A cool trick about cleaning up valves . I chuck the brush and press the valves into the brush as the drill press is spinning . I have good control of the placement where I want to clean the valves . The drill press turns much slower than a bunch grinder with a wire wheel and easher that a drill .

It's looking cool. nice and simple 👌. I have to say though ever video with your truck in the back ground I find myself staring at that ❤😅

I love it! Great work. The freestyle fluid way you build and design shows in your great artwork. Please keep it up.

Good job 👏

Excellent effort, looking forward to seeing it running down the road!

I like it!

Love those videos, and bikes! Got to change pistons on my CJ 360 as soon as they arrive in Belgium!

You might be onto something with the blown piston running lean. I’m doing a CB360 that has a #1 and valves in identical condition.

Cool done❤

Great post, sometimes the best designs came from the back of Cigarette packet, great work both on the bike and the camera......

Looks good.

I Like it. it looks really cool 👍

Firstly, sod the CB350 Police! secondly, that was a valiant effort. did you take a look down inside the case to see if there was any more debris? I'm concerned with the issue you discovered with the cam chain that there might be more horrors to yet unfold... I think it does look good, even though I'm not a cafe racer fan at all - looking forward to the next installment 😀

Fantastic video. Makes me want to go work on the Suzuki I’ve been putting off

Enjoying the videos. Just watched the entire gpz playlist. Love that bike! Anyhow. I am enjoying the content. I am a mechanic myself but of the 4 wheel variety. Keep on keeping on. P.s. you remind me of the v.w. life guys. Great channel if you like air cooled vw s

Bloody good effort. I’d lose the ace ‘bars and 2” raised handlebars on it but that’s just me 😀

Quite ambitious of you! Get some sleep 🥱🛌

There's no rush, less haste - more speed. Did you end up checking the valve seats, valves and seals? Won't you need an under-seat rear fender. Love the seat & tank flow, the project is looking good.

Wire thing might be rolled pieces of ring material...chunks..I'm with you its probably piston debris

Okay I don't know what country this guy is from or is in but you need to check out his sight it is called the restorator. He has some pretty cool ways of restoring parts

wow he is so knowledgeable of the Honda engines. I had a 305 super hawk. Anothony do you sell anything you fix? I would love to have a 650 Yamaha.

Fortunate that you have spares locally. For me it’s usually 3 to 4 days shipping on eBay. Congrats, you made a lot of progress in just a day. As you pointed out, if not for that pesky piston, that bike would be getting down the road.

Would like to see it finished

My guess... lean detonation from leaky intake boots

Meanwhile.. the new to me $20 z50 has newer used wheels that aren't rusted through Swiss cheese, Amazon seat replacement, and a very slow drip from the carb. I think it's the 40 yr old float needle has dryrotted rubber tip

Looks like you are half way there

We’re did ya get tank?

this and the 360 are 2 bikes I would never restore, rode them too much, had to work on too many of them, saw how bad the problems really were, notorious for breaking camshafts, if timing chain got slack, but seen too much slack happen before time for oil change, due to 1 of neighborhood "HEAVY" kids owning, and not good with shifting, so yes revving too much, leaving in gear too long, and breaking cam under 2k miles I made money building them, as found them cheap, stored them friends basement, had 20+ at 1 time, we mixed and matched parts, so how would you know what is correct these days, my friend always prefered drum brake, so we made him several, removing all disc brake hardware, while I liked disc better my best friend had moved on to "better" Honda" engines that wasnt as finicky, and I think there was 7 parts bikes in his basement when he died, I ignored them, he has been gone 15-16 years,

Plastic bits from the cam chain tensioner

You failed because you talk to. Much without doing anything 48:34

I like it buddy! I’d like to know what you think of my Honda 200twin l just finished all the engine cases. They had that factory Honda flat silvery gray paint on all the engine cases. Well, my friend gave me a dinosaur of an old heavy bench grinder. I bought a 10 inch cotton polishing wheel. Now all my engine cases and covers look like a mirror finish. It has taken me SO long to polish them after using an old can of MEK to remove the paint. It’s starting to look so nice. Ya know, I like your way of painting your chassis. Just a foam brush…wow and it looks great. Can you let me know where you got it? I’m going to use that method rather than making another mess of overspray in my garage. I surprised myself with the new vintage style tank I painted a duo tone. I’d like to have your opinion on my project. I was a Harley guy all my life. I still have a Road King but I’m 46 now with no help with my projects. So I’m REALLY becoming a vintage Honda fan because the parts are so light to lift and reassemble. Plus, I don’t know where my sense of style was all my young life. These Honda Twins and other old Japanese bikes are amazingly styled and so reliable. I restored a little 88 CR 80 to new condition and people are beating my door down to buy it from me. Must be the nostalgia because when I was a kid in the 80’s that particular bike was my dream bike but it was $ 1500 new back then and my dad could barley keep us going to school in Nikes and decent jeans. I love your channel and your taste. You offered to help me get my kickstarter assembly back in order. Now that my cases are all polished and ready for assembly ( with all new hex head replacement kits😅) I will probably be sending you my info you asked for to give me some tips😊👍🏻 You take care buddy and you and your family have a merry Christmas n Happy New Year!
