1999 Honda Z50R Restoration | Abandoned for 10+ Years, Cleaned, Painted, & Big Bored!

- I bought this 1999 Honda Z50R from Ike after he bought 8 abandoned Z50s that had been sitting in the woods for over a decade. This Honda mini bike was in rough shape- no gas cap, so water was sitting in the fuel tank, no spark plug, so the piston was completely rusted in the cylinder and the valves were stuck. Overall the paint wasn't in terrible shape, so we gave the old Honda Z50 a good wash and gave it some white touch up paint. It cleaned up really well!
Thanks for Watching!

Did I imagine watching this the other day? 🤷♂️
Me too
yah wtf
Right?
Must have re uploaded it!? I definitely watched this already 🤣
haha me too lol
These last year Z50Rs are AWESOME! Can't wait to take it for a ride.
Yeah and maybe a top speed run
Yes I've waited all day boys
Nice
Didn't we watch his video like 2 days ago?
Hit me up for a running 1993 750 suzuki katana engine for the crosskart guys
Issac: "Did you ever check the Oil?"
John: "Can't be sure..."
-Instant Classic Classic Car's and Camera's statement!
I restored my 99 z50 last year. I've had the bike since new. I went oem with everything so it ended up costing me $500 more than it did new......lol. Sandblasted and resprayed it with shasta white two pack and new oem decals....... rode it 15m and the front sprocket threw the chain and shredded the stator case...... You guys are inspiring me to finally finish it
Did you do it?
I had about a dozen CT70 wheel halves powder-coated the closest to factory Honda silver I could find and they all turned out awesome. No more worrying about them rusting out ever again. I'm all about keeping the stock look, but there's a point when it's not worth the time and effort. Especially when you're painting a bike with a q-tip.
had the same thing happen when applied "chrome spray paint" and clear on top. It bubbled up like that. Incompatible paints basically.
Really nice mini bike though, good job on it.
to solve your rear plastic problem, you can buy an 83 left number plate mount and white number plate, matched up with a 76 metal rear fender. golden! I might be willing to part with my spare mount as well.
You guys should do a "for testing purposes only" pin that would be sweet.
I'd love to "Sport" that pin on my Carhartt Jacket!
Looks like you could use the control from tall wide BMX handlebars they work really good I have some old GT handlebars on a vintage mini bike
Please get back to this project quickly. I REALLY like this one. Can't wait to see the results.
Have you guys tried the molasses rust removal trick, mix blackstrap molasses 5 to 1 with water in a big drum. (I use 44 gallon plastic drums with the top cut off) and soak the complete part in it.
I do everything from springs from trailers, car crossmembers, mini bike frames and anything too complicated to wire brush or grind.
Just throw it all in and leave for a week or even months. Only takes of the rust but don’t put any alloy in it.
The rust turns to a black goo and washes off to clean metal.
The mix lasts for years, just have to top it off with fresh molasses every 6 months.
Can put a complete engine block in it but would then require a all new cam bearings and any alloy part replaced.
Currently have a XR70 frame and swingarm in it.
What happens if you have a half rusted 50 frame and still has paint on it
Will it strip the whole thing?? Paint aswell?
Saves me time with my grinder thats for sure
Build a wash station for old karts being rebuilt as well as when one gets dirt you can drive onto a platform or slab and power wash them
I got to ride my cousins QA50 as a child in the 70's, the feeling was so aw inspiring I will never forget and to this day every time I see a honda 50 the QA comes to mind
The paint reaction is because you probably waited too long to clear coat it. Most cans will say "recoat within 2 hours or after 3 days" or something along those lines. The base coat dries, but the solvents are still evaporating. When you clear it within the first time frame, the paints kinda mix together and flash off together. If you wait too long, the base coat is still flashing and the solvents react with the clear coat and bubble up. You have to wait the few days for it to be completely done flashing off, or sand it down and start over.
Dude, those pins look awesome! We need a rat rod wagon, a dragster, a yerf dog, and a cross kart pin. Those would be sweet!
Man seeing that truck in the background change over the years is crazy.
Thanks for the full teardown and rebuild video. Love Isaac's monster truck fuel tank contraption.
Ike is so cool.. he never seems to get excited/upset about nothing.. john is our cool too.. in your own way.. don't worry, "it'll be fine"
I imagine if you owned one motorbike, having it not run would be a massive bummer. If you've got two barns full of projects, you can be philosophical because "it didn't work this time"
I used to ride a 1983 z50r as a kid... i'm actually tempted to buy one just just like the one i used to ride for that good ol nastalgia factor...
Hey! It would be cool if you guys could to a tear down and full rebuild of a project. But do the home work on getting everything for the build so that you wont have to be waiting on getting the parts as you go. That would be cool see a full tear down and rebuild in the same video along with you guys ripping around on the property after it's done. That would be cool to see. 😀👍
So I haveca kz 750 LTD with a screen door for a gas tank. I took it diwn to bare metal and used a blunt punch to ding every pin hole, so it forms more of a plug than a patch when I jb welded it. I then coarse wire brushed the dings so the jb weld would stick even better. Cleaned the crap out of it with acetone. Filled all the pinholes with jb weld and put a piece of packing tape over the jb weld to keep it I place. Don't push the tape in, just seal it around it to leave some jb weld higher than the ding. Let it set up and sand it like it's Bondo. Block it then palm sand. My tank was already "KREEMED" so I couldn't use sealer again. But sealee after the jb should be a nice long term fix. Look up tank electrolysis to get rust out too.
I prefer the vids that feature a bit o mechanickin along with the crazy test drives and witty banter.
We had ceramic chunks that we would drop in the tank then set on a osculating vibrator they would look almost new besides the holes left behind. Then we lightly patched the outside with body clay and filled with the epoxy below. Turns out super nice.
Guys thanks so much for all this awesome content you have inspired me to start working really hard on my channel and it’s really paying off
I've owned 2 z50's so far in this lifetime~ they are almost indestructible...
I would love another one man👍
if you go to West Virginia to ride the mountains you gotta check out Hatfield McCoy trials there one of the best trails
Just rotate the muffler 180 degrees. I have this pipe on an 88 z50r and if you point it towards the center there is no risk of melting plastic. Also doesn't hurt putting some of that reflective tape in the inside of the plastic
I love my 1998 z50 it is a great and reliable bike i have dailyit for 1 year and haven't had a single problem whit it
Why are we going backwards? I just watched you rebuild and start this yesterday! Am I missing something? Upload out of order? WTF? edit: 2 days ago.
have you guys ever considered welding a holey tank? I had an 80's Mustang with a leaky tank (bunch of pin holes under the hanger straps). Washed it out, welded it (MIG). real low heat, moderate wire speed so you don't blast through it. Give it a try sometime.
dwarf365 they have 2 bikes I think
We tried to shoot the build in two episodes, one showing the engine build, one showing the restoration.
@@CarsandCameras Thanks for the reply. I get it now.
@@CarsandCameras you are making us watch bs. Buddy
Man, I used to have a little Z50 when I was young. I rode it every day after school. It was an all-chrome Christmas Edition.
Do some custom trimming on the plastic around the exhaust tip, it would look sick!
Love the vintage honda content guys I cant get enough of this stuff!!
I’m a straight up stoner and we love pins so really excited about these
Cars and cameras, the only place where 2 guys make a rock tumbler out of a gas tank and a go kart
Cool that’s the first dirtbike I ever rode
You must have shown the motor upgrades while I was wizzing. That silver pick up is looking sweet
Also rip that gas tank. Mine is mint from being garage kept for 30 years except it was on its side for all of that and the plastic is broken. I also didn't have spark and it was the kill switch, runs great only has 5k miles on it.
I really love the topgear style,,, challenge,,road trip videos definitely looking forward for that 😀 👍 👌
Aw man your almost at 1 mil subs I’ve been here since 100k
🤟
I love this channel so fricking much
My knees and back hurt so bad watching you guys work on the floor. Lol.
What a great video for my birthday! Thanks guys!
Happy birthday
Isaac it'll be fine thanks!
Love these little 50s. Had a 78 growing up
If you're making pins then you better make a ratrod wagon and the first race kart John had on this channel. Strictly for nostalgia purposes only
Im so jealous..I love these little bikes..had one when I was a kid and rode the living crap out of it.. really wish my dad wouldn't have sold it to get me a bigger bike when i got a little big for it..wish we would have kept it for my kids and nephews..hard to find one in decent shape for a decent price these days.. everyone wants a ton for them.. running or not..but one day I'll find the right deal and have one again..great video guys..keep up the good work.
You gotta upgrade Ike’s too man
I wish every video was 20-30 minutes long at least. Would love to see more of the actual work itself. You guys are awesome!! Been a sub since the beginning!
A good-looking truck behind you
Dragster pin, 670 pin, Rat-Rod Wagon pin, Pugly pin and Cross Cart pin. All of these would be epic.
Awesome sauce. Good job guys
Fuel rubber tanks good 👍
You should do a Ducarti Pin. That truck in the background is looking really good. keep up the good content.
Nice, i was wearing my red "It'll Be Fine" T Shirt today as well
🤘😁👍🇺🇸
Ratrod wagon pin would be mint. It's an inspiration!
Just curious John , when will we hear about your shortbox Chev we see in the background always !
Check Instagram, he just drove it for the first time a few days ago.
You guys should make a ct70 pin
the 88 mph kart and the rat rod wagon are one for me
RAD!!! I can't wait to get one and restore. Riding one will be so rad! Great videos CAC!
I learned to ride on this same bike when I was a kid
I have one of those little dirt bikes all that needs is a thought of cable it's the same year too
Next time try using a cement mixer rap the tank what a towel an put it in there you can move mixer from horizontal to vertical works great
That big bore kit is going to make that mini a monster mini
@CarsandCameras From personal experience, I'd say for the gas tank, on similar situations, to wire wheel it with an angle grinder in order to make yourselves able to see the pin holes. It will also help with the repair paste to adhere better and reveal more holes that the paint is hiding
People chill the last episode was all about the engine this one was about everything else.
If these pins go ham, defo get a pin for the 50$ Kart, that brought me to your channel back in the day
Man, that truck makes a nice backdrop
2020 is the year of the Z50!!!!
WE NEED RIDE VIDEOSSSSS
You guys should make key chains with some of your best builds
I have a 1983 lawn mower runs like a dream
Do a pin of your truck that thing looks super nice I wish you had more content on that when you were having content of the truck it was awesome
POR15 makes a tank sealer product. I used it on my 81 suzuki 450. Works like a charm if you're careful with it
Monster truck pin would be cool. Since I found this channel theres not one episode that I haven't enjoyed. Cheers
What you guys have pins now get out of town thats awesome guys keep up the great work
I wanna see the drag cart with the 670cc 2 stroke you showed sometime ago
My dad bought me and my brother one a piece brand new in 99 for Christmas.. I was 5 and he was 6? Great bikes we still have one of them the other one got stolen
West Virginia is my neck of the woods. I'm right next to East River mountain.
You guys should restore a full size dirtbike next like a cr250
I'd like to see you guys faces on a pen. That bike is the coolest one yet great job on the restore.
The rat cart pin would definitely be on my hat if yall made it
Good job mate bringing the old school back to life
Certain types of paint will off gas for almost a week depending how thick the costs are. Just be careful with that. I've put clear on a piece 2 days after paint and had bubbles.
Didn't we just watch this the other day or was I just seeing the future?🤔🤷🏽♂️
No. The other video is the engine build. Did you watch both videos? They're not even close to the same
th-cam.com/video/7xJG_Ik1vOU/w-d-xo.html
Ugggh. Noo, i thought this was the next part where you fix the shifting problem. 🙃
You guys need to check out a Honda Grom. Its the monster truck of mini bikes.
Also this video is nothing like the other one.
Am I the only one reminded of needing to water the garden after that first clip? 😜
You guys should sell all those old 50cc parts on ebay if in good nick or can be cleaned up . Alot of people do be looking for parts for cub 50s and 90s .
Getting sooo close. Can't wait to see it finished! great job guys
Great video guys, great looking little bike.
Gald to see complete build video like whole restro I love it
Just a thought, could you cut open the fuel tank and make it in to a cover, then put a new tank in side. Still use same filler cap and fittings. Will look the same once its on the bike, but with no problems.
Would like to have seen the engine rebuild
I want to see more videos of the drag rail its super cool
Best mini bike ever Honda z 50 r
We should encourage Ike to grow the ponytail back
Do a pin of the rat rod wagon!!
Love all your videos I watch them all the time for real !!! it keeps me motivated with all the projects I buy Just got rid of my z50 I had not long ago had a 90 cc piranha motor on it got original motor to it just sittin in my room still lol
Can you guys do the Massimo mb200 build?
That silver pick-em-up truck is starting to look pretty snazzy.....
I got my z50r one kick start but the body needs works and seat but for 400 you can’t beat that engine especially with the 88cc stage two coming in hot 🫠
I'm not really into bikes, but I would love to have such a small one like this Z50R
