I cannot believe you only have a 176 k subscribers. That saddens me. Your team and mustie1 seem to have mutual admiration. All you guys are awesome and I wish I could afford to support you guys by buying merch but s*** is tight. Have a great day and there's your leftover cupcake cover thing or not you have to like the crumbs off.
Hondas rock. I had a 1969 CB 450 DOHC and a 1975 K5 CB 750. I beat the hell out of those things. The 750 didn't care but I had to replace the pistons and crank on the 450. Trying to keep up with my friend's 750s on a 450 didn't work out real well, but I learned a lot about engines in the process. Nice bike Kerwin.
Big race coming.. Slipper in his Clint Eastwood voice.. "Taryl.. ask yourself one question.. do ya feel lucky?.. well do ya, Punk?" Great Vid.. congrats on your new ride. 👍
Back in '76 I bought a '73 CL350 with the Red and White tank. Was a nice machine. Got my first and only speeding ticket on it, going 95 in a 55 south of Attica, IN. on Rt.41 on the way to Turkey Run state park with my little brother on the back. Luckily the cop wrote down 75 in a 55 so I wouldn't lose my licence, since I was very respectful during the stop. Sadly my brother got into an accident on it a few years later when he rear ended an accident between two cars. He was wearing a helmet, which saved his life. But it still cost him the sight in one eye. And the CL was totaled btw.
Taryl I just cannot tell you how much I appreciate your time and effort you do to publish your videos. You are truly an old school MASTER. My dad was the same way and he would have loved to watch your videos. I truly hope people who watch you learn these old school methods that really work and get you through some mechanical tough spots. People like you are extremely hard to find these days and very underappreciated. Please know there is still some of us old school fixers that love what you do and are learning new things from your channel that are worth more than money to us. Thank the folks that add entertainment and fun to this channel we love it. God bless you and the boys.
I had a Honda 185 Twin Star that I drove it all year long even through the snow and rain for 3 years. lol I wore a skidoo suit for the winter months and a rain suit for the rain here in Windsor Ontario Canada. Lost my car insurance so got this bike. It was a great little bike. Nice find Slippers.
Nice video, last year I got a 64 Honda s90. It was a friends of mine that had it when he was a kid and it's been in his dad's shed every since. He asked me if I wanted it and I told him yes. I told him I was pretty positive he could come by and ride it at the end of the day and by the end of the day it was running just fine. Seeing the smile on his face was awesome he hadn't ridden that bike in over 40 years.
Me too. Paid $600.00 for it brand new in 66. The Honda dealer in my college town Sold the hell out of motorcycles on credit. He co-signed all the notes for the students. You could literately walk in sign the paper work and be riding in less than an hour for about $30.00 a month
Taryl to the rescue again. A buddy of mine wanted to give me a Honda 350 four, and like a bonehead, I figured I already had enough things to work on, and didn't take it. I wish I would have grabbed it. Now I'm working on rebuilding a cbr1000rr engine, that spun a rod bearing. Sent the crank down to APE to get it welded and reground.
I used to have an old 1967 CB160 a long time ago. My dad bought that bike so that his boys had something to tinker with. By the time it was handed down to me (1973 ish) it was running pretty good. I remember getting that bike where I turn it loose and let it fly. 85 mph with me laying across the tank. Electric start and (titty grip) handle bars. A little while back I found a repair manual for it and got to take a trip down memory lane. I’m 62 now and still fond of it.
When you order your parts you will need a new clutch while your rebuilding. The slipping on the crank arm was because it sit for along time and the clutch harden up and will continue to slip under load easy and not expensive. great find!
I had this exact bike & color, only mine was a 1967 model. Rode it from California to the East Coast when I was 17. Got home and blew the engine running wide open with a passenger on back.
That sounds like a 6 volt horn on a 12 volt system. Forget cleaning the gas tank, just put big clear fuel filter on it and knock rust out occasionally. If your running e10 ethanol gas, that could make it harder to start, and would need to be jetted richer just for the 10% reduction in power. Not to mention melting rubber seals.
I had one back-in-the-day that we stripped all the crap off & put knobbys on. It would pin the tach. without a problem through 3rd. gear, what a blast!
Love this one. Brought me back to my twinstar in the 80s. Great little reliable bike. Nice to see a family doing projects. With all the crap on utube and social media….this wins the interwebs today for me.
I had a CL100 as a kid. What a lead sled. Filing for a lost title isn’t that hard. Just takes a little time. Just make sure you get a bill of sale from the dude you bought it from just in case it turns up hot. Cool ride slip dog didn’t know you were a jugalo. Hears a tip for you seniors on blood thinners. Never kick over your motorcycle like these knuckleheads without boots on. Don’t ask me how I know lol. Black foot on a white guy. Yikes!
That is another nice find. I wish I had a set-up like yours...Not as big but, big enough so I can stop fixing peoples machines, outdoors. Thanks for sharing Grass Rats.
I personally suggest find the original airbox. I have read trying to tune one with aftermarket pipes and airfilters are almost impossible to do without a miss somewhere in the powerband.
Yeah, agree. This thing will never be a super powerhouse with a mere hi-flow filter and rejetting {why bother} so its best to run it the way Honda intended, plus the factory airbox actually protects the A/F mixture and provides optimum air filtering. Cone filters aren't substantial enough to exclude rainwater and since it's a scrambler {trail bike}, crossing streams is fairly out of the question too.
the only reason i broke down and bought a set of jis screwdrivers was that i got tired of stripping out the screw heads. i like to swap out the bolts with stainless steel allen head fasteners on the bikes i build. makes them easier to remove in the future, and the stainless doesn't react with the aluminum as bad. bonus, they look cooler than the ratty, half stripped screw heads that are what you get when the last person who worked on them didn't use jis drivers.
I’ve never made a request on you tube ever but puuuhleeeze get Taryl to do a vid running up that XS750 Yamahaha. That would be great. Be cool, freezerburn
Another great motorcycle project, guys! I have a similar "some day" project too; a 1966 Honda 305 Super Hawk, just sitting in my shed where I parked it, years ago. At the moment, I am working on a 1973 Yamaha GT-MX80A that has a stripped spline on the kick starter shaft. How to repair? Carefully welding the kick starter on the damage splined shaft would probably work, but not my first choice. I am looking for other ideas as a replacement kick starter splined shaft is not available. Watching your restoration on the CL-160 will be exciting!
The 3mm, 4mm and 5mm screws in that bike are JIS. The modern metric threads on those size screws are different so save your points screws because if you substitute modern thread screws for the JIS on the points plate your points plate threads will be stripped. Ask me how I know.
JIS, or Japanese Industry Standard screws are just different enough in shape that Phillips drivers will not fit well and slip/strip them. The difference is in the leading angle of the point of the driver. Phillips bits have a larger angle and therefore don't bottom out in the JIS screws, causing slippage
@@Watchyn_Yarwood Yep, that's true too. The biggest pain for me was when the Japanese went from JIS to International Standard Metric in the 3, 4 and 5 mm. Just enough difference in thread pitch to really mess up a vintage Honda.
My brothers old 68 Bridgestone had the the key switch in the same place with the first click for ignition and the second click to turn the lights on. It has a similar fuel shut off but when the fuel was turned off the lever was back and to turn the gas on it was straight down and reserve was forward.
Back in 68' I bought a used CL160 that I rode to college daily. I ended up selling it in 73' when I bought my 1st car. Great memories with that bike. I regret selling it now. (for about $300 in mint cond).
I grew up through the ‘70s and young adult in early’80s on Honda mini bikes trail bikes motorcycles three wheelers had a rebel 250 and even a ‘79 odyssey love your old bike(s)
Lisle tools...They make a spark tester that just clips around the wire. No need to remove the boot or nothing. Just ground it and clip it😉I hope this helps you like you’ve helped me👍
Great stuff! I have a 72 cl350 I havent got to yet but looking forward to the rehab. I had one years ago and sold it. Found this one and snapped it up. These bikes are pretty torquey. Thanks for posting. Do some more bike videos please. Also would like to see a yamaha 2 stroke golf cart rehab like a G1.
another thing alot people don't know but if a 6v coil is bad a 12v coil works just find I've been in many arguments over that . but I thought I would put this out there maybe it will help someone

@@embreesmith7613 not so I did this for many motorcycles the last of which was earlier this year, all done through the mail just time and money. You pay for the fee and tax.
I did some checking and it appears some states have made it difficult to use the Vermont Loophole. I’ve had no problem in West Virginia and Virginia. Check with your state dmv. If any problems use a reputable title service
Nice sounding bike,will be watching for updates! What's your opinion on those ultrasonic cleaners for jewelry and stuff,think they can thoroughly clean a carb?hello from Michigan!

Slippers is one of my favorite characters. I love vintage bikes.

New music is awesome guys! Had a CB100 as a kid. Wish I still did.
The best man-channel for those with ADD. Don't finish anything, just start a new project. The new one is far more exciting and focus-worthy

Wow, $500, that’s a great deal. Looks like everything is there and running to boot. I love those small Honda twins.

Wasn't the 'Twin Star' kinda like a little Harley? I remember Honda making something like that and it looked pretty cool.
All right! The Slip Dawg! Gonna be awesome!
you make me want to buy an old bike, glad youre back to these videos
Keep them coming Slip Dawg!!!
Just bought a 67 CL160 scrambler a few days ago. Thanks to you two knuckleheads I got it running today. It hasn't ran for 4years. Thanks again 👍
Need to have a show on how to synchronize the carbs.
Did that back in the day...
Thanks guys, this video was a great start to my day!
When working on a "Parked" bike, disassemble the fuel shut off BEFORE trying to turn it. The gasket/valve sticks and gets destroyed.
Good reminder. 🙂
