  • We’re not some elaborate restoration channel and we don’t pretend to be. In fact, we explore the opposite route here - cheap and dirty. Just how good of a motorcycle restoration job can you do with some treatments, sandpaper and a whole lotta wax on and wax off?

    Tip for seats. Use a garment steamer on the foam after you take the old cover off. Will puff the foam out to like new. Also plastic or silicone splay on the foam before you wrap the seat will help the fabric slide as you pull it. Love the videos, keep up the great work!!

    I have a 1978 Suzuki JR50 from when I was a kid. I got it from my grandparent's shed and it had been sitting there for 20-25 years, and was last ridden by my younger cousins. Thanks for this video, the Yamaha in this video is basically the same bike. I am going to restore my childhood bike and will be watching this several times more.

      It sounds Orwellian, but we're living next door to a cultural Goliath. It was an attempt to preserve Canadian artists.
      The program was quite successful; there are more Canadian musicians and bands than our comparative population would indicate we should have.
