- The end is in sight! :)
Welcome to the long awaited episode 5 the engine build. in this episode you will see me blast and polish all of the engine casings,fit new bearings,washers,seals,gaskets,piston,rings etc as well as doing a bit more painting and zinc plating.
The video pretty much speaks for itself and i try to go through each stage of the build up in as much detail as possible to try and help anyone else who may be in the process of building one of these engines.
35:42 WHAT DID I FORGET?- Are you reading this because you saw the caption in the video? well if you are what i forgot to fit was the gasket for the points casing, not the rubber seal just the paper gasket. I have a video all about it on my Patreon page if anyone is interested in hearing me ramble on about gaskets and oil seals here - / reallyrandomchannel
Stay tuned for episode 6 coming soon ;)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A bit of background on the project if your just joining us
Another year another big restoration project.
Anyway onto the bike. As you may remember i restored the tank from this bike in a previous video for the previous owner of the bike. his intention was to have me restore the tank and that would give him the inspiration to get on with the rest of the bike but sadly this was not the case. So i made him an offer on it and now its mine to restore back to its former glory.
It was initially found lying in a barn parted out and whats left is all that you see in the video so theres a lot of bits ill need to source, easier said than done! No one even knows if it runs as whoever parted it out has been long forgotten in the sands of time, then my friend stepped in saved it from the barn and now its in my possession.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A new addition to my videos from now on will be a water mark and my channel name popping up in random places throughout the video as im getting rather tired of people re-uploading my content as their own i hope you guys understand.
If you like what you see and have any ideas for the channel or would even like to donate something to restore to the channel please get in touch. :)
And as usual if you liked the video please like share and subscribe and help the channel grow.

Hey Guys, As you have probably noticed already i have updated the channel name and logo. The channel is no longer Really Random Channel it is now RRC Restoration. Just incase you were wondering why the water marks in the video still say Really Random Channel. Enjoy.

I appreciate the fact that you are not constantly raving about your sponsors or some new tool they sent you free in exchange for an obviously biased review. Also no music and just the right amount of explaining makes your videos very enjoyable.
Thank you im glad you said that. I feel that mentioning that your videos are sponsored and raving about products etc makes the video and channel feel very cheap like its just a marketing scheme and you dont really care about the content you are producing so long as the sponsor pays you so thats why im trying my best at all costs to avoid that as i really care about my restorations and the quality of them and the last thing i want to do is cheapen the experience by advertising for web, game and tool companies that have no relevance to the restoration... Rant over sorry about that haha . Glad you are enjoying my videos though :)
As someone with ocd I truly appreciate your attention to detail on projects. Great work. 👍
your methodical approach and attention to detail is second to none !! ive watched every single one of your vids,starting with the drill clean up. thats the one that spurred me on to open up my mothers late husbands non functioning Ryobi drill driver that had been sat outside for the better part of 8 yrs. Ive got the unit working now,,both batteries cleaned up and holding charge,,the drill driver works perfectly,,,,next job is to strip the drill, sand it back,,prep and repaint then she'll look good as new. if it wasnt for your videos,i would have just got it working and left it at that,,,,so,from the heart of my bottom, i send you my upmost respect and thanks. long live the Really Random Channel.
Thank you so much! Im so glad to hear the my videos are helping you take on projects that would otherwise be scrap. I wish you all the best and keep saving the unwanted :)
Brilliant engine. One of their best. I've just renovated my 200 cc version of it. Goes really well now and starts first time. Great job. I love thorough.
This is pure perfectionism. Best restoration channel ever. Thanks for sharing this valuable content.
Tak, duży perfekcjonizm!
This motorcycle is one of the very precious in the history of Japanese motorcycles.
please take good care.
I riding the 88`TL125.
This is a very fun.
Dont worry its being well taken care of :) Thank you for leaving a comment.
This was the first time I have seen or even heard of deglazing a cylinder. Always learn new things from your videos.
Lovely... better than any movie on Netflix 👌
Thank you very much :)
There are a very few channels that a 40+ minute video doesn’t seem long enough. This is one if them obviously. Can’t get enough. I guess there are plenty of them that have 4 minute videos that take way too long as well, lol. Thanks for the upload!!
Thank you so much, I was a little concerned about the length of this video but i just couldn't bring myself to edit out all of the juicy details.
Really Random Channel No problem with the length, as JP said. I’m just longing to see the little bike in all its glory. Did you sell it on, or are you riding it? I do hope it’s not just been “museum-ed”. Les
I just want to thank you for these videos you do. Fantastic work as always my friend. Can't wait for the final one and I certainly can't wait for the next build!!!
My Bday was yesterday and I feel like this is an AWESOME GIFT! Nearly a full hour, WITH NARRATION! - and working on (so far) my FAVORITE project! Thank you! All ready clicked "LIKE" before the video even opened, lol!
Happy Birthday, Im glad i could give you a birthday present... albeit a day late haha. Glad you enjoyed it :)
What a fascinating rebuild! My conclusion is that it's easy to take things apart- but not so easy to put back together! Great Work! Keep these videos coming!
I’m retired now, but I rebuilt automatic transmission s for 30 years here in the states. This guy obviously has done a lot of these Honda’s before. I ve done Honda stick shift trans and Honda automatics. They’re engineering is first class. Bravo!
Steve Faltis he sure does have a good system developed for remanufacturing them...it is wonderful to watch the process
My 1980 CB100N (almost the same engine) was amazing. Bought it new and changed the oil once a month, that little engine went everywhere at 10,000 revs and never once let me down.
Good to see an excellent restoration with such attention to detail on a worthwhile bike. Keep up the good work.
You just changed another bloody Monday to a bloody good Monday - thanks a lot mate, and great job as usual! 😊👍👍👍
Hi, Glad to be of service ;)
Great demo of the timing chain adjuster!
Absolutely fantastic RRC. If I ever need my heart rebuilt, I'm calling you. Can't wait for the next episode ☺
I've been watching this build from the start, plus the others that you've done in the past, a few things come to mind.
You obviously know your way around the shop, you are well prepared and geared up for the task, Your shop is always neat and tidy, this also reflects into your work ethic and the professionalism shows in the level given to detail.
One of the more enjoyable things with your videos is the placement of the camera giving the viewer a birds eye view of your handy work. It is indeed a pleasure to sit back, take it in, and watch what you do best. Good Stuff ! Give yourself a pat on the back, Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a nice comment :)
@@RRCRestoration You're very welcome!
Good work definitely deserves good credit. One of the things I've promised myself to do a long time ago, and that was to make at least one person smile every day, by seeing your emoji, I guess my job is done.
Defo, seeing a nice comment definitely brightens my day and makes me smile thank you once again :)
Not only your restoration work is great, but also the way you film and present it. Thanks for the knowledge transfer and the inspiration you provide!
Thank you very much for your kind comment :)
Excellent job. It's amazing you remember where all the parts go.
It’s absolutely fantastic to watch your workmanship and skills!!! Anxious waiting for the next episode!!!
Thank you very much :)
I always love to see engines coming apart and going back together, Honda's especially, after 30 years doing parts for those I know where stuff goes but hardly ever see it going in the metal. I envy you your space and equipment I have a shed and a back yard, my parts washer is a bucket or old roasting tray but then I never seek to do work like yours. As it says I just keep them running.
The TL125 was my very first bike. When i was 12 years old, I have great memories of those days. I wish I still had it. I've been looking for one, but they are way too much money even for one's that are basically scrap 😢
Highly impressed that how you guys can do things so perfectly. In India we are full of alternates and using whatever resolves the matter. I really loved watching the overall process.
The coffee ´s hot
I´m sittin here
to watch this channel
the whole damn year .
..." End daere you havit " :-D
That was mesmerising, such skills and takin the time and effort to film it for us is excellent, top drawer stuff. It wouldn’t be amazing if somebody could do a voice over explaining what you’re doing as we see it. Thanks again for a masterpiece.
You are highly skilled..I very much enjoy learning from you. Thanks for the time and effort you put into making these videos for us! Cheers.
Thank you very much for your kind comment :)
Putting bearings/outer races/sleeves in the freezer for a few hours shrinks them, thus no forcing them.
Aluminum of course is easier to work with but it may help if you ever have to put them in steel casings.
Love the channel, keep up the great work.
Thanks for the tip, Ill be sure to remember that for future projects ;)
I love that I can mentally smell the oil in that red oil can. Resto looks good!
I love this fun! I have several 70's bikes stashed away for retirement restoration. Thanks for the video!
très belle vidéo, j'attend toujours la suite avec impatience ; très beau travail.
Can't wait how this little engine sounds like, cheers from Indonesia well done brother 👍👍👍👍👍
Ganti piston Tiger om kayak di indo
Herex
Nicely done. I’m a big fan of those little Honda engines. Particularly the 125s and j models . Ran an Xl 125 for years. Great machine. Hope you enjoy riding yours!
I love watching these restore videos... so cool - can't wait to see the next one. My heart skipped a beat when i saw the phillips head screws going in... I would have t o abandon the all "original" for some cap head allen screws or something... anything else.
Keep up the great work.
I agree if i wasnt doing a faithful restoration the JIS screws would be in the bin and would be replaced with nice stainless cap screws ;)
What can I say but this 👍👍👍 and thanks for the detailed engine rebuild very educational and professionally presented unlike some others who like to hear themselves talk.
Thank you very much :)
I wish my mechanics here in Thailand were as knowledgable as you. I have the Honda Airblade 153cc - Scooter style but they never seem to fix the engine/ tune it and it drives me nuts. Unfortunately, I know my skill level and although I am great at disassembly, the reverse procedure is my nemesis.
👍
Change was dramatic!!!!! Understatement of the year, casings looked fab, great job
Thank you glad you liked them :)
Your videos are as satisfying as eating a packet of crispy bacon Wheat Crunchies at 2am in the morning. 😋
High praise indeed considering how tasty bacon wheat crunchies are! :)
@@RRCRestoration.Tru dat 👍🏻
Gasket removal at 4:18 with razor 👍, the white spots in the dark material of the gasket is asbestos bundles, switches to sand paper 😖. Millions of asbestos fibrils cry out with joy at being freed from their bondage in the gasket. Hope you were wearing your P-100... Never sand asbestos containing materials, especially dry. Other than that, nice video! I enjoy your projects immensely.
Veryyyyyy satisfying, especially those bearings being pressed.
The bike is looking great! Your videos are a lot of fun to watch. Looking forward to the next one.😊
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Você é uma inspiração !!! Obrigado
Worth the wait! I'll bet your friend is happy to see the bike coming together as well. I'll also bet you have a willing buyer for this project once you're done!
Whaou ! Really really great job....all the 6 videos are amazing. I understand how time consuming is that kind of work as I have the same bike with however less works to restore it. I really appreciate the motor rebuilt. Many thanks to share your works because it is very useful in case if some of us have to repair it. JLC South of France
Great to watch a master at work .👍
Two fascinating things (other than the whole thing), the audible torque wrench and that awesome o-ring assortment in a case.
Awesome work! You're motivating me to finally start the rebuild on my 1975 Honda CB360T.
Hey bro I have a 75 360t also in excellent condition just haven't started it in 12 years. Think I'll be doing it this summer.
That box of o-ring seals, beautiful
Boy, my first bike was a CB100. That was back in '71. Can't wait to see this fired up. Excellent video. Subscribed!
Nice, I cant wait to hear it running either im only a couple of days away from firing her up ;) Thank you for subscribing its very much appreciated :)
I was waiting for this video! It’s instructive. For the work done by lai and respect 👍👍👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🤝
Yeah I have never replaced a gasket on an engine in my entire life but I have still seen all his videos so...
40 years back I had a Sammy miller tall boy TL125 when I was 20 years young I would go out in the morning with a spare can of petrol on the back a few tools and foam puncture repair (finilec) and I would be gone all day coming back home when it was dark, wish I could do it all over again,
Ah that sounds like heaven! Glad you got to enjoy yours back in the good old days theres precious few places where im from to get a bike like this out and go exploring :(
a level above....The Flying Scotsman .. I love your work
Thank you very much :)
Well you made that look like child's play. Well done. I enjoyed hearing you talk too.
Thank you, Glad you liked it :)
neat trick i learned from working at a motorcycle shop , get an electric hotplate and place the carter on it , let it heat up untill a spit finger sissles
put on oven or weldinggloves and turn the carter so the bearings are facing down and slap it on a wooden tabletop , the bearings are now out , sumtimes the bearing fall out as soon as you turn the carter over
while still hot turn the carter around and place the new bearings , these are cold and will slip right in
leave carter to cool and youre done except for the oilseals
Nice trick, Thanks for letting me know :)
Very nicely done. I like your meticulous attention to the details. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed tremendously.
Thank you, Im glad you enjoyed it
Great work this the only video that i watched all through out even it takes 40+minutes long, looking forward on the next episode keep up the good work!
Thank you, Im glad you enjoyed it :)
That was a lekker video! Great job dude, really enjoyed it! Looking forward to the next one🤓😁
Really Big Job here, those little japanese are amazing, and you are creating a masterpiece, congrats master.
Thank you very much :)
Excellent video as always. I tend to look forward to your vids because of how calming they are to me.
Thank you im glad my videos relax you :)
You know what I like about you?, you don't just chuck a pile of cash at projects running out an buying new parts, you even replate bolts! Thats dedication to your work most would buy nut n bolt kits (readily available for most vehicles!) Yeah really pukka! Id buy 1 of your bikes😏👊✊💨
Hi, Thank you for leaving a comment and im really glad you like the way i work :). In my opinion a true restoration should be about trying to save as much as possible of the original vehicle, not just bolting on new parts and calling it restored, even if that means spending days polishing and plating 40 year old nuts and bolts haha
@@RRCRestoration haha! your a good man,thanks for replying. Hope we're going to see you ripping on the trike.
watching this series fully for the second time now
everyone here should watch them at least once every year
(why do i have the sudden urge to use a grit blaster)
So, by @37:56 you had realised your folly and rectified the situation. ;-) Good eye. Nobody is perfect! At least it wasn't something "deeper", like the bearing retainer for the trans. primary shaft in an H1500. Guilty! Pull the clutch and the whole shaft slides out. At least I checked the operation before putting the rest together. Split the case twice (horizontal) before I figured it out. "So that is what this half circle piece of metal is for! It fits in this slot and LOOK, there is a matching slot in the bearing!" I'll never forget that. :-)
Beautiful build. Thanks, Man!
Jesus, look at the size of that piston, valve indents, the small end of the con-rod. That's way overkill for a 9HP engine. This thing is indestructible. Great job!
Muy bueno el armado del motor y su montaje,ya lo deseaba ver,muy buen contenido amiga mi like siempre
Another quality build, worth the wait. Thank you for posting.
Thank you for watching and commenting its much appreciated :)
I like that you switched to Pozi screws for the case. Much better than JIS.
I also am not sure if I would have squeezed the bottom of the bore in the vice for honing. But, still, this whole video was better then a baseball game!
Sand blaster and parts washer, you know this video is going to be good!
love your videos,thanks for sharing!
It was nice to hear your voice during the last episode. I'm from the states and I liked your accent. As far as I'm concerned, I'd appreciate some more narration and explanations while you are working. Great videos and great work!
Brilliant work mate. Can not wait to see this baby up and running. Great series Brother. Love and peace, Ken.
Thank you very much :)
I found this very interesting. Like I said in a earlier comment ,Out of all the engines I have built and rebuilt I have never seen the inside of a Motorcycle Engine.. Damn Good Work.. Peace
Thank you im glad your enjoying it :)
what can you say, really FANTASTIC.
Great job mate, thanks for sharing. Cheers
Mate, it is NOT a restoration when you make look TWICE as good as new. Mr Honda would have a tear in his eye👍
Thank you so much, High praise indeed! :)
WOW, what a good sign of presentation again, can't wait for the next episode. Really love channel.
Thank you :)
Esperaré a ver la continuación, super excelente
I was surprised that no thread locker used on the case halves bolts, no gasket sealer on the case covers, no lock washers on the engine mounting bolts, JIS head cylinder hold down bolts, rubber timing chain tensioner, etc. What an interesting engine. I guess low stressed, low hp, high torque at minimum rpm. Enjoyed the video and the whole series.
I was surprised to see the bolt heads on the engine mounts being torqed up and not the nuts as you are supposed to. Also it is amazing that you can measure thousandths of an inch by feel alone when adjusting the tappets.
Super travail, je suis admiratif !!
Back from my bullshit job, time to relax and learn useful stuff. Thanks !
Espectacular! Magnífico trabajo! impecable! Pero te hace falta un destornillador eléctrico! 👍👌
Wbere is your shop my bro.
Nice work bro you really an engineer
SUBERB SERIES! I recon you could have done this kind of job before ! You make it look so easy and put us poor mortals to shame. And that spotles, well-odered workshop, fantastic. Mine is so full of "projects" (junk) its like an obstcle course. Greetings from an old "Geezer" in Ireland.
Hi thanks for leaving a comment. Haha yeah ive built one or 2 before ;)
Lindo vídeo , me fez voltar aos anos 80 quando tive uma xl 250 .
Gonna be such a nice trail bike. I really like that you don't do a half ass job, Thanks. It's a Honda !
Hi, nice to see you again. Lets hope so :) Well as i like to say if a jobs worth doing its worth over doing haha.
@@RRCRestoration Good one!
Love this Channel! ...Newk from Kentucky USA
Thank you very much :)
That moment when you think 'that piston looks a bit sad' followed by 'ah.. right!'.
What a great video I just happened to come
by it accidentally on the TH-cam I'll go back and see if I can find your other ones see if I can get on the beginning of this rebuild but thanks again for sharing this with us,
And you really got to lay off drinking too much coffee it's really got your nerves in an uproar! Hahaha!
Мастер, респект и уважение. Лайк необходим за умелые руки!!!
I know this is an old video but in order to restore engine cases, you need to be vapor blasting. Just for future reference if you weren't aware. You do a great job, seriously. These are the sort of things I love doing myself. I didn't realize that this many people would be interested in seeing this kind of work.
Mejor, imposible!
Felicitaciones.
Like it sir. Very detail and beautiful
I'm subscriber from Indonesia.
Kamu luar biasa!
For a while (27:40) you thought you were building a 2-stroke! :)
great job!
Well done man! Nice work!
Thank you :)
You’re the best! Your skills, organization, tidiness and method are unmatchable!! Work done by you is for sure money well spent!
Thank you for your kind comment :)
Watching the shift drum being installed at 10:18, an easier way is to get the drum installed is to remove the shift fork shaft prior to trying to force the drum in. With the transmission installed and the shift forks installed remove the shift fork shaft. The forks will stay in place. Install the drum so the forks engage in their appropriate grooves on the drum and then reinstall
the shift fork shaft. This way there's no pressure put on the drum and the forks. Possible damage can result by pressuring it in.
Reformas maravilhosas acabo de virar fã de seu canal.
Itsthesame as the cg125 engine. Thank u very much for the video my brother
