Thanks for another awesome video!! I was fortunate enough to get to ride a Greeves 250 back in 1976. I was racing a 1974 Suzuki at that time and thought that the Greeves was actually pretty fast. It didn’t have the leading link front suspension but it still felt pretty good compared to the stock forks on my Suzuki. The only issue I had with the Greeves was the right hand shift lever. I had raced a Bultaco Sherpa S 200 in several flat track races the past and it had both brake and shift pedals on the right side. On a motocross track right side shifting just didn’t work for me….. came close to crashing my brains out on several occasions!! Thanks for Sharing!!
I've found that two strokes run fine with a worn bore, as long as the rings are OK. If they rattle a lot, though, then they're too far gone. If it doesn't rattle, then I'd leave it, especially on a hard to get parts bike.
Another great video, The Greeves motorcycle sure has a interesting engine, Growing up I was around them, I've just never rode 1, Thanks for taking us a long while your fixing it, I see someone commenting that it has a right hand shifter that would be fun to learn, I've rode one where the shifting was on the clutch handle on the handlebars, And I thought that was strange, I'm just amazed with motorcycles and enjoy all of them, Thanks, Pensacola,
Great video Dave , picture quality looks great figure you are using the new DJI Action 5 Pro. I used mine yesterday on a ride at Carnegie SVRA, I had it on the wrong aspect ratio but it looks good maybe a little pixely.
I like the vanity light on the ceiling and how the power drop dims the light when the compressor kicks on💡
Those studs @ the bottom of the cylinder are unique!👍

this is one of my dream bikes.

Looking forward to the Herc
You need to do a leak down test on your compressor!
Do you mean the air compressor? Yeah the hose! Its hosed!

Dave, how did you know my daughter's Pomeranian was watching from the lap at the moment you mentioned pets watching. You must be a canine psychic.
