- Well, ladies and gentlemen, I've done as much as I'm going to do on the CT2 and it's time to put the next project on the lift and get some things done. This is just a preview. I've done a lot of work already on this bike, but never got it running right, so tomorrow that's where we'll get on it.
Jack, you’re the Yamaha enduro Guru!! Your videos are the best!! Thanks for Sharing your knowledge with us!!!!
Thanks Tony. Not really an expert by any sense of the word, but I just keep at it until I get it right. (OJL - On the Job Learning). Keeps me out of the old folks home.
Super looking bike Jack. Looking forward to the journey. If Dale did the cylinder, it will be good to go!
Best wishes, Dean.
I went through timing. and carburetor today and got it running, but I'm not happy. I remember that when I replaced the crank seals I had a lot of trouble getting one to seat and I'm concerned that I may have damaged it. I don't think they were OEM seals. Oh well, I love replacing crank seals. I do it nice 'cause I do it twice.
A cool bike. See you on the next video brother.
Great video and bike. I’ve got a 74 as well. Ended up buying a 75 for some parts. Great tip on the paint to match the Virginia Gold.
I forgot to mention the 3 coats of SprayMax 2K clear gloss over the top.
This'll be a great watch. That's a really sharp looking orange. I've got a '75 but it's a long ways from yours. Has tank, frame, bars and engine and not much else. Was locked up when I got it but freed up now. Haven't done anything else to it yet. Doing the parts search now and they're hard to come by. I let a running 73 with title get snapped up before I could get ahold of owner
@@rc5693 That’s about the same as where I started, but some of those hard to find pieces are getting ridiculous in price. Good luck.
Three year project off and on, there are previous videos for the curious.
And a lot of mistakes and learning for me along the way.
Here
first in line again!
