Honestly it's true! I had thought it was rubbish but a great trick i will definitely use it in the future!

Ha ha I was gutted when the puller broke but the toastie loaf came to the rescue!!!

@phoenixmotos9712 Seriously though, would plasticine or blu-tac work too?

I reckon they would yes

Thanks so much! Yeah I had serious doubts but it is a real winner!

I had one back in the day, great bike, but I think this is the year Honda started losing the plot by painting the frame white, and the almost orange plastic. The older Hondas looked much better, deep red plastic and frame

Happy 2025 Chris Hope you are well buddy? Gonna be a good year for some amazing bikes!!

It is a 1980 125 elsinore yes with the red engine twinshock bike last of the air cooled!

I had a green tank 73 too - wish I still had it

Hi From Preston UK! They are a really beautiful looking bike and being honda they are built great too!!

Stock apart from K&N filter and the pipe! Sounds awesome doesn't it - it has a lift kit and wheels but guess you are talking about the noise!!

It's so cool man!

It sounds super crisp mate

It was already warm to be fair so clearing it out was no risk - it seems to be jetted a bit rich

Thanks mate

I don't have that bike any more I'm afraid - try preston petty!

I can do yes

They are beautiful!

Really is! It's going to be raced by it's owner in April at the Westmorland classic scramble if you want to see it in the flesh!

It's a very satisfying (and not that difficult) job! And aga cooking makes food taste great I think!

Yeah they are in the steering head - normally right hand side- if it's been powder coated it can cover the vin up

@ I will hit it with a wire wheel to see if it reveals it. It was stripped to be coated and never was so it’s rusty now

Glad you like it!

Thanks ✌️

Unfortunately I sold the bike

Pretty sure from memory it will only go on 1 way

@phoenixmotos9712 rotor should be closed as piston comes down to shoot the charge up the transfers. If the valve was open as piston came down it would just push fresh charge out the carb. Yours is working backwards currently

@@aaronbright5028 ah OK- so when the piston is at the top the crankcase is a vacuum so the valve opens at the point when the piston is at the top. This way the most fuel and air is drawn in. Then the valve closes and the piston travels down compressing the mixture in the crankcase. Then when the transfers open when the piston is near the bottom the charge which is compressed rushes to fill the cylinder which is now in a state of low pressure. Does that make sense? The valve has to open when the piston is at the top rather than the bottom - if it opened at the bottom it wouldn't work.

@@phoenixmotos9712 valve opens at bdc and closes right before tdc so on its way down it can blow the charge into cylinder. On the way back up it reopens and then closes again to return down. Your video has it backwards

That's right yes

Not really parts but what you after and where are you??

Not sure about that-

Not too far from a train station. Been sat since June. Both sets of keys and service history yes. Call me on 07974350592 if interested

Yes mate

My kids are getting 2 stroke candles for Christmas ha ha

@phoenixmotos9712 lol

Sounds amazing doesn't it!!!

The KX65 piston is the same from 2000 onwards but also the Base gasket you have to make with a thicker material as the 65 piston is slightly taller

@ thank you sir

@MatthewOrtega-u6z hope that helps buddy

Wish I had amugen kit for my rocket!!!

Really great bikes!!

Ho do it and post a video

@ I’m waiting on radiator hoses now , I will though ho 😂

Ha ha ha

Yeah it's so original it's unbelievable!!

I'm going to be doing a new installation video - the hpi definitely has a lighter flywheel than a lot of stock ignitions it generally has a faster spin up and more top end. You're right the bottom end will suffer

That sounds like it could be an oil supply problem- can you get your supply lines checked?

@@phoenixmotos9712 Thanks for the reply. Spent the morning testing things. Yes, it was a supply issue. I adjusted the cistern height (couldn't figure out how to adjust the float) - I'm now getting 4ml p/min at low, but only 5.5 ml p/min on high. The AGA is on now (cold snap). I've adjusted the screw by the controller as far as it can go.

At least it's on but only 5ml/min is too low it should be more like 10 on high. I would say more investigation needed to improve the flow

You shouldntbe making these vids….you have mafe airroutes directly thru the gaps in the wick you slopped in…they have to join/overlap and not be in line with each other to prevent air rushing thru….yellow flame and smoke and fuel wasting will follow

Yeah really really good

Mega bikes mate

Hi that's sold I'm afraid

Where are you based??

@@phoenixmotos9712 California

Hi mate it's £2700 but a few people after it

Yeah it's a Mega fine

Very!

She's been sold - the new owner will sort the restoration out on this one!

@@phoenixmotos9712 Yes thats me mate 😁

@garagemischief awesome - I wondered if it was you!!

@@phoenixmotos9712after tasting some honda blood, had to get another one! Such rad looking bikes.

@@garagemischief hondas are definitely the best!!!
