1971 Honda CB500-Four first start after sitting 40 years
Переглядів 4328 днів тому
First startup clip of the '71 Honda CB500-Four. This bike had been sitting for about 40 years, last registered in 1982. I did a frame up resto on the bike over about 18 months. The engine is all original. I cleaned the carbs in a sonic bath, and bench synched them. Amazing that it ran perfect the first time I hit the start button with no other tuning.

Run For The Hills 2024 - Boulder Basin
Переглядів 8137 місяців тому
We led a few adventurous Willys up to Boulder City after the 2024 Run For The Hills in Stanley, Idaho. It snowed most of the day, but cleared off for our picnic up at the old Mill site. Most of the video is in the technical spot I call the "Gate Keeper", a deep wash with a granite waterfall. I didn't get video of everyone, but some of the guys on the trip are posting too.

    I’ve been running these tires on my class 11 style beetle. Off road these tires are fantastic. They claw through mud and do well in deep sand. The skinny tire looks right on an old rig. My only two concerns are that these tires are not good on wet paved roads, and they seem to wearing out quickly.

    You didn't go very far out before turning around. I've driven that entire trail and even though the car I drive every day has a clutch I was glad my Jeep had a torque converter. Also I would hate to be that far away from civilization and have a carburetor that wouldn't cooperate.
