Great job on the bike, I had this exact model when I was a kid in the 80's and drove it everywhere...even right into the side of my Dad's car! Thanks for the memories gents!
Yall need to do a manco American express 1.0 drifter kart. It would get a lot of views there is not a single one on youtube of a full build The vid was awesome, bike looks great. I recommend Rocky ridge ranch near Decatur area I may be too far for yall but I have gone there a couple time and It has been nothing very fun if you go, bring any off-road things you have.
Truth! You gotta rev those two strokes, worst thing you can do is lug them around, just asking for fouled plugs and potential off-throttle piston seizures.
I have the exact same bike that I got from a junkyard and I’m doing a restore. I’m having trouble finding the whole seat itself and I have no luck at all
Keep the revs up on the old 2-smokes guys, they love to rev and don't like being bogged down. It'll sound like it's falling apart, but that's just what they like.
Fresh piston and rings will make a world of difference, it will take you about an hour to do👍😉. Oh man... a set of Ohlins shocks, a Bills pipe, better forks......that little beauty would be trick!
hey guys here is a little i figured out years ago playing with ATVs and dirt bikes etc the Harbor Freight small wheel manual tire changer bolted to a old wood pallet is a nice stand t hold the wheels for you when you are doing something like steel woofing all the spokes or whatever using it to change tires is okay but can get frustrating as hell the trick for that is really applying soapy solutions way more liberal than you think you need i’ve used it more for trailers tires and someATVs it’s more helpful getting tires off the rims the on IMO although i actually do want to buy a pneumatic/ hydraulic machine and balancer combo that are priced pretty decently from importers of two post car lifts and scissor lifts you can find on Ebay and other online venues a common named one is Tiumph ? all built in China of course
Awesome work! My first bike when I was a kid was that exact model. Really brings back memories. Loved that bike! I’m 50 now and still riding.

Great job looks fun 👍I remember cruising my little 66cc two stroke bike on the back roads
Love it, I'm currently working on a restorarion on my Yamaha DT50 mx2 from 1988
That thing Is sick
You guys are Studs, love your vids
That bike looks like new after just a little bit of work.
Currently own same exact bike. Still runs as well. Mine doesn't smoke much either? The pump does work, but it just doesn't use much oil... 🤷♂️
more videos of this bike please!
Nice guys 👌 it looks great I think you should do a full Restoration in the future

Love your vids man keep up the great content
I have a 82 cr80 just like this. Can't wait to see more vids with this!
You need to decoke the pipe. Either use an oxy to burn all the old oil or set it on a fire. Then paint it.
That thing being a two stroke I would keep it a little higher in the rpm’s because it’ll foul out the plug faster just poking it around like that

IV got one, my first bike dad ever got me, keeping it for my son, going to be his first bike too, an we are in 2021,

Hell yeah guys I just did a restoration on a 96 yamaha rt100 sold it a month ago

Just bought a 1978 One of these. Where can i find parts? And do you know somewhere that sells a titled frame?
That really looks Great ! (I like to use WD40 and Scotch Brite pads on chrome.Cleans quick without scratches.)
yeah keep that old bike way it is, its hard to find nice ones like that anymore
Not even going to roast the back tire
Sweet vid!! Where at texoma? We have a place on the Oklahoma side. Those trails looked pretty sweet. I might have to check them out!
Right across from the dam on the Texas side
What bike is that behind the MX 80?
should probably do a top end rebuild soon on it
Can you buy elbow grease on Amazon? Whatever that stuff is it looks like it works pretty good.
Little bikes... twice the fun
Hey I am a high student in Coppell tx. I am working on a go kart and was wondering if you guy could help me out.
If the plug fouls from riding trails,u can stick a little hotter plug in it!😊
What is the name of your intro song?
U need to open that thing up or ur gonna foul plugs left and right
Too bad its not a gt80. That was the one i had. It was a streel legal version
I'm a little bothered by the shorts.

Get a front number plate for the mx80.
Before you put the new one on
Build break repeat what is your theme song and I might have a idea for a video
Great job. ya should be strapping the ass off it not putting .there made to cane
"and rip"
Keep your feet on the pegs.
150 cc 2 stroke swap ?
Not much of a rip
"The rims are actually Kah-Rome" Whats kah-rome? LOL
I gave the first like.
No blue smoke from 2 stroke = bad
First
First!!
