    Top tip dude for cleaning out stuff from the cylinders from the spark plug holes, thin tube with rubber hose end off a vacuum cleaner just to make sure any crud is out.

      That's pretty neat! I will keep this in mind because of course I did it the hard way! I'm not sure why some comments are not giving me notifications. A pet peeve of mine is channels that don't acknowledge their viewers input in some sort or another. Even if it is just liking the comment. I try to engage the best I can because let's face it, without subscribers or viewers there would be no tube.. Thank you for the insight! Blessings and respect!

      I'm glad you enjoyed the video! It certainly was fun for me to make. A wish list find for me. Such a relief to have freed the engine up! I was working on it yesterday and forgot to hit record.. just get excited about having found that bike! Thank you for the support Zane! Blessings and respect!

      So excited!! I've searched and waited for the perfect one that spoke to me for over three years now. Getting a feel for what it wants. Thanks for giving it a watch!! Appreciate each and every one who does! Blessings and respect!

    I don't know if the price is "good or bad" for that bike specifically but I think $200 is within the range of worth the gamble. Since you have it turning on the starter, a compression test could be interesting.

    • @1SmittysGarage

      I appreciate your honesty there. For the price, indeed worth the gamble. I don't expect a high compression, it's been off the road since 01'. However if enough to bust off I'd expect it to improve with a couple heat cycles. Was such a relief to have gotten it turning over! Truly a bucket list bike of mine! Blessings and respect!

    First bike Honda Rebel 125, current work bike the legendary Honda CG 125 and got my Yamaha Fazer 600 FZS, hope you get this one all working well.

      I've always liked the older Rebels, the 250's. Such a simple clean looking machine. Thank you for the support! Hope all is well your way! Blessings and respect!

      I knew you'd like it! I'm such a sucker for vintage Honda's. I think I'm at seven now, four being what I'd call vintage. To me, the CB750 is the pinnacle of that era and I'm beyond excited that I now own one!! Blessings and respect!

      Whew!! Can you imagine trying to keep that handful straight!?! I do have a scoop on a pit bike engine and transmission though. I got vision in mind for Big Hoss. I'll wait till the perfect time comes...it definitely paid off here! I've been looking for this model bike for three years now. Beyond excited! Thanks for the support! Blessings and respect!
