Your guys knowledge is helping me get ideas of why my c4 corvette wont start. I am an 18 year old kid who bought a cheap corvette with alot of problems and this channel really is giving me motivation to go and start wrenching on it. I love the channel keep the projects commin. ❤
This was great brought back so many memories. I used to have a 1983 Honda Nighthawk with the CB550. That bike would randomly close the gap on number 2 spark plug. I had it check several times for damage to the piston but everything was always fine. When it started running bad all I would need to do was gap the plug and go. It would be months before would need to do it but was random. Great video as usual. Thanks guys!
Get a little souse on an ATV, and you will wreck - I know out of experience. I had a MOTO four from a simular year that we put a ported 12A on - it was like 200 hp, and it was very hard to control. Also - a ported 12a will hit 9,000 rpm in 2 seconds so you don't need a lot of shifting.
This is exactly what you need! Something y’all actually can rip and can somewhat handle it. Y’all aren’t sitting super funny on it like many of the other builds!
My family still has one of those original Suzuki 230 sport quads in full working order. Even with only the original 230cc engine it is still an impressive machine. Kick starting sucks the first time, but once it's warmed up that thing screams down the trails. On tight trails a lot of modern quads can't keep up because of his much lighter it is. It's really cool to see you guys working on this hybrid project.
I live in a resort town, and the prices are close, but I rented a industrial storage unit for about 500 UK quid a month, about 1500 sqft, and high ceilings for my bucket truck. Do you have something like that?
@@MegaMeaty I live in Hampshire, everything is ludicrously expensive. My friend has a unit that size with a really bad rental agreement on a farm in the middle of nowhere and that's still about £780/month
Digging the Longer episodes when it comes to the building and the shorter ones when it comes to the testing and racing videos. Loving the channel as always thanks for the great content.
2 things, i've been watching for too long, i said "jank" exactly when isaac did, and 2, painting the wheels that gold on the 3 wheeler y'all are working on would not be the worst thing
I love that thing! Especially every time Issac bitches that something will be difficult, It turns out to be no problem at all. This bike WANTS to run! Good purchase, Jon!
You guys are awesome. I just bought a 78 cb750 ohc I've been restoring and this video was super helpful. Never would've thought I'd be finding tips for it here but I got super excited when I saw the title in my feed. Keep on keeping on two thumbs up👍🏼👍🏼
We did this with a Suzuki 125 and cb 175, about 30 years ago. Suzonda was the only fourwheeler in my group of friends, around 92 there was a badass snow in the midwest. It only ran about 35mph but with the clutch and 5 speed it was super easy to drive and could take off in 4 gears. Sleds were pulled, and smiles were had...so glad I have those memories and damn glad I've got projects rolling and plenty of toys for my kiddos!
This is an awesome toy! I absolutely love the 230's (229) they are the sweet classic quads, my brother has one, been needing a little work but seeing these swapped ones are giving some awesome ideas!
I had a suzuki gs 500 i turned into a three wheeler. I removed the rear swing arm and mounted a yamaha blaster rear end. It was crazy fast and easy to ride wheelies. I cant wait to see you guys rip on that beast.
Hey Bros, LOVE this new project. I would have called it Hon-zuki ! Hon-duki sounds like it just pooped ! Wish I was there to help get her going. Can't wait til next episode. - God bless y'all - Jeb from Texas
When I stepped up from a Honda 350 Twin, it was to an early SOHC CB 750. Awesome! I don't remember mine being very touchy for an air box- but I've slept a time or two since!
Gave up my 78 CB 750. Awesome machine only two complaints the timing chain rattled like crazy till it warmed up and those points were a pain in the ass.
I noticed a spare set of headers. You could probably re-shape them to fit the frame. You are definitely going to have to re-gear it. Between the HUGE rear sprocket and the small tires it will be slow. Is the fork lift there to put the new building together? Can't wait!
I was riding a Honda 750 when I had my last accident on the city streets. And that was the last time I rode a bike. A drunken driver fully tranquillized made an illegal 5 lane tum to pull in front of me. I saw the hit coming in slow motion & on impact I when flying over her hood. But that was it. There was nothing to salvage. Put a for sale sign on the KZ and I was done. This was my 5th accident in 2 years, all of them were on the other driver. I came to the conclusion after riding 10 yrs, that I was an accident waiting to happen. But liked riding that Honda 750 4 banger SOHV. For the time it had some attitude. Smooth Engines when running right. Cool project guy's Enjoy the weekly installments
I overfilled my 70' CB750 oil tank the first time... The overflow spits out in front of the rear tire. Had a interesting stop at the first corner.... Need to re-jet that, without the airbox! Cheers
good call on the rejet . if ya only have stacks and / or very little air filtration ya better do a plug reading after a hot run . those older in line 4's like maybe 2 sizes up on the main jet advance the timing by 2 degrees and they really like 4 into 1(open) headers . so figure it out . if needed i have the complete older honda 750 engine manual .
Seriously awesome episode. I have only one problem. Pineapple is wonderful on pizza John. I put pineapple in my sauerkraut too. A cooked pineapple ring on a cheeseburger is yummy. Looking forward to seeing this quad doing a hot lap.
i think that was an awesome video ,and i cant wait to see this thing moving which shouldnt be very long. it takes a hell of alot to kill a honda and those quadsport 230s were a tough little quad back in the day.
been watchin for years.. took internet hiatus for a while.. came back... you 2 old dudes makin me feel old.. lol (gee thanks right haha) btw that looks like a compression release lever
26:47 From memory those early honda's had 2 ignition coils, one for cyl 1&3, one for cyl 2&4. You could have a dead coil meaning the engine is only running on 2 cylinders (1&3 or 2&4) 360 degrees apart. Could also be a points problem, one set not opening causing the same problem.
I know a lot of people on here have said that the small lever is a de-compression lever, but my immediate thought was that they had added it as a rear break lever for when you're doing wheelies like a lot of people do with motorbikes as its easier than using the foot pedal, also means you can have your foot or knee on the back of the seat for better weight displacement and still use the rear brake to stop you flipping over.
What do you guys think of the HONDUKI?? Pretty sweet right!? Also- we put two more quarts of oil in it before we ran the engine. It’ll be fine
I think it looks pretty sweet I mean I love how jankey it is with the really just haphazard parts put on it I think it’ll be fine
Yessssss
Idk if John should be allowed to ride that with his crash record. 😂 that’s gonna be scary
@@brapperdan
Totally should team up with Failarmy 😁
It’ll be fine guys. That jankiness is nothing compared to some stuff you do and it’s never gone too badly before

"The jank is real"
The Honduki is badass, just the right amount of hot 80s death machine everyone needs in their lives 🤣
Let's see if this thing will start an if it does, then I'm 'onna need someone to hold my beer.
If only this were a 3 wheeler haha
Only thing that could make it even more mental is if it had started off as a 3 wheeler, seeing the 'duki rip is gonna be awesome!
@@hrsey71 I survived having a Honda 110 in my childhood. Probably wouldn't have if it had like a Yamaha DT400 engine.
@Ryan Martin ummmmmmk
I absolutely love the song the motor sings to you when it's wanting to run. And then it gets over it's fit of running and then purrs at you.
the smaller clutch handle was originally a compression release for the original engine
Spot on
I thought maybe they just set it up for stunting and had a rear brake hand lever.
@@pistolgrabber01 that’s what I thought lol
+1!!
yeah sometimes these guys scare me with their lack of common knowledge. It all works out in the end tho.

I never heard so many different sounds come from an engine before it starts
Thought the same thing 😂
having no manifold makes lots of questionable sounds
Sounded like it was trying to blow bubbles at one point
if an atv could get the runs thats what it would look like!!!
th-cam.com/video/9nAGbb8qHA85/w-d-xo.htmlyu
The smaller clutch thing is a compression release, it helps the engine start, my xr250 has it.
That's neat - I have a couple 2 cycles that would be awesome on.
The small left handle must have been for a compression release.
It part of a previous version like a smaller motor
Yup, mine had a compression release too.
th-cam.com/video/9nAGbb8qHA86/w-d-xo.html6yy
Yea Suzuki had those on most of their stuff. Got one on my DR 350
750 honda 4 pot motors do NOT have a compression release 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was already on the quad dumbarse
New drinking game: take a shot every time John says “sounds good” 😂
Would've been shit faced in the last couple power wheels videos

Extended rear swing arm...banshee style!!!
Finally a backwoods build revival. Congrats guys. I been waiting for you come across one of these subjects
Something nostalgic about the bubble mower sounds you get from short runners on open headers...
This is exactly what you need! Something y’all actually can rip and can somewhat handle it. Y’all aren’t sitting super funny on it like many of the other builds!
this is sick ive had a few quadsports in my time always have wanted to do a swap like that cant wait to see you guys ride it!
I'm not a suzuki guy.. but those quadsports don't die
@@bansheemania1692 nope have yet to kill one. Usually the frame cracks lol
@@kattywampass The one I got was dead but no cracks. I threw a Honda XL200 6speed in it, and threw some cut down raptor plastics. Hondayamazuki.

That "carport" is bigger than my whole house. I wish we had more space in the UK, you'd have to have a £4m house to get something like that

The second clutch lever is a pressure relief valve
no small one was for the stock engine
Eighties models had a separate lockout lever for reverse too

I always imagined that the "Sex Panther" cologne from the first Anchor Man movie smelled just like PB Blaster.
That’s hot
That quad is bad ass. Cant. Wait until i see u all ride it..keep these build coming .to date u all are my favorite show on TH-cam
“Smells like funk and Afros”😂😂😂 WOW!

JOHN, this is for you.
Watch the video of "Big Country" they got 70s that you guys might be interested in.
Love your show, keep em coming.
That second "clutch" lever Is the old compression release lever
When would you use it?
This is an awesome toy! I absolutely love the 230's (229) they are the sweet classic quads, my brother has one, been needing a little work but seeing these swapped ones are giving some awesome ideas!
I can imagine how this project started: few guys, few to many beers and a suzuki quad and a cb750: i bet the engine fits.
Nah...
Wanna bet?
Lol.
Always liked the suzuki LT230 fourwheelers. And then add a huge 4 cylinder is awseome! Haha
Ike vs john in a from scratch build off. Let's make it happen
Ike would reck John let's be honest. John literally learned most of what he knows from ike
i knew i spotted a quadsport in one of the older videos i’ve always loved them
Hope y’all are doing good
That thing will be totally radical when it is put I can't wait to see just how fast that thing really will be
second clutch is stock suzuki compression release
That thing sounds ANGRY!! I LOVE IT!! PLEASE ADD IT TO THE PERMANENT COLLECTION!!!!
That is a pretty cool quad, imagine how fast that will go😂
Fast enough for John to run into another tree I guess.
Thats my old four wheeler but its fast enough for one of them to crash
@@dakota8049 So way faster then a Banshee I guess😂
th-cam.com/video/9nAGbb8qHA86/w-d-xo.html6yy
@@Hitycooking I just watched that, very cool but I personally think you should add some side panels and some led light strips for the front
Awesome guys, keep up the great work 👍
0:03 someone needs to make some music out of this
This is the kind of stuff that makes me smile. It's awsome!
He has that much of a beard it’s been so long since I watched this
You guys are making great content, ive been watching from day one and the content has never declined in quality
You need to leave the pizza outside for the Easter possom so he knows where you are
That motor loves to run a 4-1 into a BSA Gold Star "silencer" runs beautifully and sounds amazing.
I think that’s going to set records on the course
I had a suzuki gs 500 i turned into a three wheeler. I removed the rear swing arm and mounted a yamaha blaster rear end. It was crazy fast and easy to ride wheelies. I cant wait to see you guys rip on that beast.
U guys should bring back the little diesel engine on something
yyyyyeeeeeessssss plllleeease!!!!!! that would have made the bronco crawl like a beast!!
Can't wait to see this project finished!
Dang it's been a year and i see you with an awesome beard like omg nice beard
Thanks
Luv the Honduki name. Awesome. That thing will be the new Grand Prix champ
@6:30
PINEAPPLE IS REAL PIZZA!!!
Everybody knows pineapple and ham go together, like a 750 on a quad.
👍😎🏁
Great job, fella's. Can't wait to see you ride it when it's finished.
Great video guys! Honducke will be awesome. gotta get her done !
I totally agree with you Ike. I would take offense to the quad carb headache you are dealing with. Alas, it'll be fine man!
I really wanna see this thing get the full treatment. This is what I’ve been waiting to see. Awesome super powerful oddities 💯🔥😎
Hey Bros,
LOVE this new project. I would have called it Hon-zuki ! Hon-duki sounds like it just pooped ! Wish I was there to help get her going. Can't wait til next episode. - God bless y'all - Jeb from Texas
I HAVE A 1973 350 -4 MOTOR , BEEN SITTING A LONG TIME .THOSE OLD HONDA'S SOUNDED SO GOOD .
Hondooki..luv it! Cool project, i think that small lever was a compression release lever. My honda xr 350r had one.
Gonna be a handful. Can't wait to see you run it.
Coolest. Quad. Ever. The Honduki rocks! Can't wait to see it out on the grand prix track.
When I stepped up from a Honda 350 Twin, it was to an early SOHC CB 750. Awesome! I don't remember mine being very touchy for an air box- but I've slept a time or two since!
I like this “Honduki!” Will be following because it will be an awesome machine. Good luck and be safe!
That is going to be a Beast of a ride.
I can't wait to see how you do the exhaust
It amazes me how you two can get an unbelievable pos to run, simply amazing 😎👍
That small lever you were talking about being a clutch lever is a decommission lever to make kick starting easier I have one on my 1994 dr 350
Hell yeah! This time instead of chasing your tails, yall did the right thing first. Cleaning the carburetors and checking the spark plugs!!!
Great choice for the name .
Cant wait to see the finished product
This is awesome!!!! I always wanted to do this too. You guys makes the coolest videos. Best channel of all!!
Gave up my 78 CB 750. Awesome machine only two complaints the timing chain rattled like crazy till it warmed up and those points were a pain in the ass.

Heck yeah, I can't wait to see this badboy rippin!
Awesome! I'm excited for this, good deal man!
