I crashed my xt600 almost a year ago. It was an inch away from being totaled. I finally fixed it a couple weeks ago. I’ve watched this video over and over hoping I could rebuild it one day. This video gave me a lot of inspiration to get my love on the road again. Thank you.

early 80's you mean after 87-88 it was a 5 gear - in 90 they made a 6 gear but wasn't the same bike you couldn't add after market pipe back then anyway plus the early 80's xt;s were 3600 out the door the 90 model was 6 grand now the xtz -xtx different story again big bucks for those babies you could get an 86 xt for 2500 mint cond that's what it boiled down to it was a big heavy bike but for 3800 new what do you want
Very nice bike and the job well done. I am currently restoring a '87 2kf black to it's original. Did you bought the golden rims or did you gave them a surface treatment? Thanks in advance, Martijn
I guess it comes down. To how much people are prepared to pay. Personally s of value it somewhere near £4-5k seen as you can pick tidy examples up around 2-3k
i guess im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a way to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my password. I would love any help you can offer me.
@Lance Orlando thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Lance Orlando WTF IT REALLY WORKED :O Just got access to my IG password within roughly 40 minutes by using the site. Just had to pay 15 bucks but for sure worth the price =) Thanks so much, you saved my account :D
Frank Silva yes all bearings were replaced, the crank was sent to an local engine builder. I believe they froze it over night befor pulling the bearings. The main issue is removing the timing gear which has no key to locate it and must go back on exactly as it came off.
New-Retro Motorcycles by chance do you have a name of that shop or know the method they used to hold the gear? I'm in the same situation and I like to see if I can fabricate a jig or if there's something they came up with other than just a scribe mark.
Great restoration! I've also restored my 2KF in the past 2 years. (video: ua-cam.com/video/YzQry1I6zOk/v-deo.html ). By the way. what was your secret restoring the plastics? Greetings from Holland.

Where did u get those tires
+New-Retro Motorcycles Very nice job congrats! As you did to polish the combustion chamber and ducts adm and exhaust?
Did you replace both crankshaft main bearings? If so how did you do it?
Frank Silva yes all bearings were replaced, the crank was sent to an local engine builder. I believe they froze it over night befor pulling the bearings. The main issue is removing the timing gear which has no key to locate it and must go back on exactly as it came off.

Hello, how do you get the wheels so perfect new in gold?
You have buy new one ?
There were stripped of there anodising, polished, and then re-anodised
Beautiful but the color of the wheels is too dark.

Yeh, very difficult to get the anodising spot on.

All unnecessary. It just wanted riding not restoring.
