This was more like mass destruction than disassembly. Why destroy the wiring harness and cables unless you have an A to Z inventory of rare spare parts? In this condition, a real restoration would take months, otherwise you would just be cobbling together a Frankenbike with mostly non-original parts. I guess with a three week deadline that's all you can do. But I must admit you've got me hooked. Waiting (patiently) for the next installment.

@teampacemaker Жыл бұрын

The cables were all rotted thru and totally unusable!… totally… I’v kept the wiring loom- what you see me snapping is the stator wires.. the loom is remaining… it’s not a restoration though I’m just saving it and giving it a new life.. just replacing the bits that are worn/broken and putting it back on the road to ride safely to Belgium and back (hopefully!!! ) the rally is on the bank holiday so I have 5 days left before I leave now… hopefully first start on Monday…. 😬😬

Well it’s obvious that in that condition NO however if it’s completely rebuilt then obviously again it’s not the same scooter 🛵 we see in the photo 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

@teampacemaker Ай бұрын

@@jimeverhard3647 wtf of course it’s the same scooter… and engine… just with wheels and hubs added (obviously you can’t ride it without wheels!) and some essentials replaced- ie steering bearings, piston and barrel/ exhaust etc… only the essentials were replaced so it could be ridden-the body/forks and engine casing/gearbox/chaincase/kickstart/etc etc are all original…, I don’t get what you mean it’s not the same scooter?

I’ve had sports Superbikes last 20 years sick of dodging cops speed cameras ans last few years been spending ages looking at scooters now after watch your channel especially these episodes I’m planning on joining the clan so time to do maths whether to buy a basket case and rebuild like this series or buy a ready done one .

Well you can’t please anyone music wise… it’s not my first choice… but you can’t have the best music on your videos because of copyright… and it’s certainly better than hearing speeded up drill and machine noises?… 70,000 people have watch this 4 part series so far so it can’t be that irritating to everyone?
