Valve compression tools are a must have tool. I did a valve job without one and it was so frustrating. As soon as I purchased a cheap one, I was happy.
I agree about buying a ‘parts’ bike or parts for supplementary parts.
Great video Eric.

[@motorcyclerewind]

A must have. Valves seem scary until you do them. Super easy. Thanks for watching.

I rebuilt one from a trashed field-bike back into a fully-usable roadster. It went from a non-running heap to a good bike, and passed its’ MOT test first-time. The only thing I struggled with was adjusting the awful cable-operated brake caliper.

[@motorcyclerewind]

I love it. They all want to run. Just need someone willing to do it. Thanks for watching.

[@AceCafeBikes]

What a deal!!!

[@motorcyclerewind]

Such a good find. Can’t wait to get it back together.

[@yomommaahotoo264]

Thank you sir!

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks. Hopefully the gaskets come in so I can put it back together. Thanks for watching.

Second hand prices can get nuts. Any time I have an old or vintage bike, I look to buy a second non-runner or partial bike cheap, for parts. A complete non-runner or crap-runner is often much cheaper than buying just a few parts, and more often than not it'll have the bits you need - and a whole bunch more you can sell off later if you like.

[@motorcyclerewind]

I agree. My problem is with want to get the parts bike running. 🤣Thanks for watching.

[@andersaxelsson2196]

Awsome done

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much for watching.

I did something similar last week. One of my old CBR’s was in need of front wheel collars. Bought a whole axle with collars because I couldn’t find any NOS and Honda no longer makes new ones.

[@motorcyclerewind]

I love hacking the matrix. Thanks for watching.

[@Turleyswheels]

You’re on the way I understand the price of parts it’s cazy❤

[@motorcyclerewind]

Looking forward to piecing this guy back together. Thanks for watching.

[@davekeehn8388]

If you have the space, buying a whole unit for parts is usually a better deal than dodgy eBay parts.

[@motorcyclerewind]

You are so right. Thanks for watching.

[@yesharamanamperi4382]

My 2 brother in laws bought 2 brand new SL125's in the early 70's and in 1000 miles the exact same thing happened to both of them!?

[@motorcyclerewind]

This one had an overdose of RTV. Thanks for watching

[@josephleister9198]

Nice score for 80 dollars....

[@motorcyclerewind]

Such a great deal. Took months to find it. Thanks for watching.

[@nathanlovern5283]

Is the top end same as a CB175?

[@motorcyclerewind]

I think it might be. But with better oiling. Thanks for watching.

[@cyclebuster]

pretty cheap so far. still hardly worth fixing.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for watching.
