I watched all 23 video is less that 24 hours! I was sick yesterday so I sat miserable on the couch cussing at all your bumbling buffoonery. I must say, you show a lot of heart and tenacity, intuiting your way thru this. It’s good experience that will mature your skills in small engine repair and pay lifetime benefits. Just PLEASE be safer, don’t ride bikes with no brakes and don’t breathe all that crap. As a dad, i had a shit attack! Think of your health and safety more!!! (done ranting) Can’t wait to see how this bike turns out!
For future projects try using SPRAY 9 and a paint brush with long bristles, when you agitate the grease with the brush and chemical the grease/grime you can spray it all off with a hose, no scrubbing or wasting a ton of paper towels.
Hi Gold guy like you stuff, just wondering if you ever watch Jennies garage , he dose a lot of work on bikes think it would be good for you to learn from , he also has a lot of parts at times. Well just a suggestion any way keep up the good work love the Channel
hey mate, great work! Planning to use the same brand paint on my 1991 Honda XL185 engine, how did it hold up with heat and fuel droplets leaks and etc ?
Hey man nice work on that bike but next time you should do the engine paintjob when it is dissassembled... when you will have to dissassemble it again, that paintjob will be destroyed
Great job dude!, shes gonna look and run great!, gotta love bringing vintage anything, especially bikes back from the dead. Now it'll last another 40 years😎
Do not change the opening music to your channels intro it’s awesome! I look forward to it every time. The Spanish sounding Clint Eastwood movie guitar is awesome!
just binge watched this since the first episode I really like how you show all the steps you go through to restore this bike. in the last episode you should go back to Ron's house and show him
Great video.a little advice build yourself a bench mounted engine stand i made one and it is great for most bike engines.also would be easier to prep engine for paint when its disassembled
All I have to do is move the hinge points on the frame to the other side and add some brackets. No big deal. Plus, I already restored the seat in a different video. Watch that video, then you'll understand!
im doing a kz550 at the moment and I really want my next project to be a two stroke like this one. cant wait to see how it looks when youre done with it. engine looks great
You’ve had the engine disassembled so it would be a lot easier to remove the paint and even painted before assembly... it would definitely be done without any risk for the gaskets and seals. Try it next time😉 Nice video though 👍🏻
Looks great but I am wondering about the heat with the painted fins. The fins cool the engine and now they are sealed and will keep more heat in. You might have to strip the edges of the fins if it is running too hot. but it looks great!
you have been my guide for my project as-well so thank you! can please tell me how to these paint you've using (rust oleum) engine primer, flat black and the clear.
hey man, i have a question you might be able to answer. im currently working on a 50cc derbi moped. the paint on the enige is partly gone and it needs some new paint. do i need to take all the old paint away from the engine to let the new paint stick, or sticks the paint pretty well on not really cleaned pieces? i also was interested in the paint thinner. what is the purpose of that actually?
Waarschijnlijk is dit antwoord te laat, maar in ieder geval: als je de oude verf er niet of amper afhaalt ga je dat natuurlijk in je nieuwe verf zien, en nieuwe verf hecht niet aan vette/vuile oppervlakken. Daardoor heeft hij het eerst ontvet. Ik raad het niet echt aan om dit op deze manier te proberen, op den duur wordt het vaak lelijk.
I DEFINITELY WOULD NEVER USE BUNGEE CORD!!! 🤦♂️. Yes it did work here but please don’t try that at home. Bungee cords break all the time! They are not made to bare any kind of weight. Just use rope with a bowline or figure 8 knots on each end.
Aircraft remover definitely completely fucks all gaskets and seals! I sacrificed some old gaskets and seals and o rings to find out for myself lol
Oh shit good thing I kept it off of the gaskets and seals. Gotta be careful with this stuff
Nice
Yeah, engine looks great!
Looks great!
Brilliant good job mate
inspired me 👍
Even sprayed the spark plug 😂😂
Yeah man I wanted it all to match
Nice project,i have project soon or later...
Man u r genious, i absolurely love your videos
good effort kid !

I'm from Brazil, I like your videos, you help me with pronunciation and listening in English, I'm still learning, thank you.
Very nice GoldGuy!
Wow that paint came easy peasy.
Been waiting for so long
You the best
I just love flat black paint 😅 just me...
Love your videos
Nice job.

WOWWWW i watched this whole build in one day not knowing it was still going on. I was so into it Hahahah now i can’t wait for the next video...
I just did that same thing this morning while painting my fuel tank putting some cushions underneath. haha DIY life
Superb job sir ... I would have left the satin black as is without the gloss coat but hey that is just my opinion
nice
You are one talented geezer well done mate, you should be on like a TV series that would be amazing.
Damn going to look awesome

If the aircraft remover burns hard paint of course it would burn the gaskets seen it happen before some are just cardboard
ive done the same before. Good Job.

Max power i also watch that channel love it
Engine looks great fab work well done mate
2023 and this video is still helpful. I'll be using this to repaint my XT350 engine in the coming weeks!
I'm glad it's a long process I feel like I'm a part of something from start to finish what a great feeling
Nice work mate keep it up all the way from England 😎
hey mate, great work! Planning to use the same brand paint on my 1991 Honda XL185 engine, how did it hold up with heat and fuel droplets leaks and etc ?
It held up really well actually!!! Mostly fuel proof and definitely heat proof.
That looks pretty dam good pal.
You have a great channel better than rather b welding
I just watched this whole build that you have done on this bike so far. You have done an amazing job!!
good jobe so fare keep it up from the uk
Yesterday i saw one video from this build and i found it so much fun to wach so i wached all the videos and i subscribed 👍👍
cant wait to see some rides with her!
Keep up the videos there great
Looks very good man like new makes me happy to be the 100th like,can’t wait to see what you do with the frame.
Great video again ! Waiting for the next one like never
Guys in the vintage Japanese motorcycle sometimes polish up the aluminum
I hope you finish the build and I want to see it
Looking pretty bad ass can't wait to see the finished product going to be a nice bike
Hey man nice work on that bike but next time you should do the engine paintjob when it is dissassembled... when you will have to dissassemble it again, that paintjob will be destroyed
I really appreciate you showing this and how you did it, it gives me Confidence that I can do this myself and hopefully save some money, Thank you! :)
should use brush wire first instead of sand paper
,paint would hardly want to stick on any finished alu .right?
That aircraft remover is the best! I did my cx500 tank. Worked amazing.
Nice to see it coming along 👍, looks good.
Thumbs up for the music! Johnny Cash and bikes is a good combo!
whats the point satin black then gloss clear coat. ps hows it holding up? any trouble with road debris, gas/oil?
how many cans did it take?
I can't wait for more vids on the ts185!
Is it safe to wash that paint remover down the sink?
Doing a great job! Thanks or sharing this.
Great job dude!, shes gonna look and run great!, gotta love bringing vintage anything, especially bikes back from the dead. Now it'll last another 40 years😎
Do not change the opening music to your channels intro it’s awesome! I look forward to it every time. The Spanish sounding Clint Eastwood movie guitar is awesome!
Well said
It’s called “Malagueña Salerosa”. Beautiful song.
I agree about not painting the rubber.
Dang, dude! That's a nice looking engine! Can't wait for you to finish the restoration and take it for a ride.
Just court up with this bike, man I can wait till you've finished bet it'll look awesome. Great videos :)
just binge watched this since the first episode I really like how you show all the steps you go through to restore this bike. in the last episode you should go back to Ron's house and show him
Hell yeah!!
Great video.a little advice build yourself a bench mounted engine stand i made one and it is great for most bike engines.also would be easier to prep engine for paint when its disassembled
I'm hooked on this build!!! You should get an OE speedo, tach, head and tail light and hook em back up!!
Don’t breathe that stuff in good advise. Also don’t pour it down the drain.
Do a ride on it please
Please don't modify the chassis for a seat..the chassis is worth more than a seat you can easily replace. Also the motor came out great 👍
All I have to do is move the hinge points on the frame to the other side and add some brackets. No big deal. Plus, I already restored the seat in a different video. Watch that video, then you'll understand!
im doing a kz550 at the moment and I really want my next project to be a two stroke like this one. cant wait to see how it looks when youre done with it. engine looks great
Did the paint last or did is chip off?
It's still on, super strong paint
Weres the next video ha I cant wait any longer love this little series you've got going bro
Looks good! I'm wondering how this has withstood the test of time? Does the bike get dirty and power washed often? Any flaking/chipping? Thanks!
You’ve had the engine disassembled so it would be a lot easier to remove the paint and even painted before assembly... it would definitely be done without any risk for the gaskets and seals. Try it next time😉
Nice video though 👍🏻
I'm restoring the same bike. It was easy to do it while apart
Looks great but I am wondering about the heat with the painted fins. The fins cool the engine and now they are sealed and will keep more heat in. You might have to strip the edges of the fins if it is running too hot. but it looks great!
hi goldguy , can you please let me know how this paint stood the test of time :) ??
I was so excited to see this video, great work man👍👍 and what happened to that 450f Yamaha dirt bike?
I am still sourcing cheap parts for it, I only need the cylinder and piston and then I will have all the parts I need to rebuild the yz450! Stay tuned
GoldGuy can’t wait bro🤙
I bought the cylinder and piston today! Video will be up soon
Just to be sure and make it easier on you unless you already know where they go.
you have been my guide for my project as-well so thank you! can please tell me how to these paint you've using (rust oleum) engine primer, flat black and the clear.
Awesome videos man, I really enjoy them. I would love to see what you are doing with wood working too.
Good Job! But in my opinion better paint with motor dissassemble in parts. I prefer no bolt paint!
To do a cafe racer with this bike would be very interesting. I would still try and get a title for it. She would be sweet as a cafe racer
You need to look up where the wires go to.
I'd use truck bed liner for the frame paint. I used it when restoring my 1975 Kawasaki G5
Wait hold up your on to somthing. Me and my dad used that for our boat. Good idea!
Brilliant video! I may have missed it but how many layers would you recommend of the primer, satin black and gloss finish?

Can you get the elbow grease in 2.5 litres or just 5?.
It is American elbow grease, comes only in gallons and quarter gallons.
looks good! was there a sale on the albowgrease?
No man it's never on sale and it doesn't come cheap
The Engine looks SOO AMAZINGG!! You did an amazing paint job
Thank you man!
You should have left the engine alloy and polished it
Fully agree, it would've looked tits polished up
Nice video!! When does the next episode come?
I DEFINITELY WOULD NEVER USE BUNGEE CORD!!! 🤦♂️. Yes it did work here but please don’t try that at home. Bungee cords break all the time! They are not made to bare any kind of weight. Just use rope with a bowline or figure 8 knots on each end.
I want to see you do this to a big Vtwin engine. I’m about to do some work like that to mine
May I ask, how did this hold up with rock chips from driving ?
Great video but why use satin paint and then ruin it with that nasty gloss clear coat??
Weres the rest of videos for this bike?
Feeling like im watching a video from 2013 for some reason😂
Scrambler/Tracer build?🤔
You wash away the old paint in the sink, is this remover so environmentally friendly?
Where’s the yz450 at ?
