Fun video! The '72 500-4 was my first bike. I did not explore its potential by a long shot. It's cool to see these guys going for it ... I hope we get to see the bike when it's 'track ready.'
Excellent video and fascinating look into the involved process that follows an engine rebuild in preparation for the TT. Is that Dave's tube of WELLSEAL making a cameo appearance at 20:40 in the video? ;) Brilliant work by Aaron and Andy, thanks for sharing a behind the scenes look with us. Good luck with the bikes!
Did you check the number of fingers on your hand after using that rag on the oil leak, so close to the final drive chain 😅. Love those small capacity Honda fours, in the '80's I had a 400 four as a daily rider, for a few years and a 750 four for the weekend special. Both ultra reliable, particularly after owning British bikes for years (since 1960, yes, I'm old) before. Did I mention oil leaks?
Good Luck Andy ✊️😊
Nice work guys!

Fantastic Video - Did you go to the IoM and film ?
Nope, didn't have the budget for that!
