Great video! Mine (my 1st "bike", a 1963) also has the kick start spindle spline end sheared off. I had like that since purchase date. I always had t opush start it, which was super easy
@@DJAA732 In fact, I've read it's a common issue, but I think if one takes that into account when kick starting, prevents from jamming the kick starter down, which I think is what leads to it breaking. Cheers
Just so you know, if you would be okay painting the engine cases and covers, Duplicolor's engine paint line, includes #1615, which is a silver color that matches Honda's Cloud Silver almost perfectly. Shoot some of their clear over it, and it'll look great! I have a '67 C110 down here in Phoenix.

@zzrider805 Thanks! I'm worried I'll be doing all this work just for it to shear off in the first few kicks

Just do a push start, that should be cake to push start. that way you ca preserve the kick.
I probably will most the time. That or just be super careful whenever using the kick start
Weld it and then machine it to the tolerances.
Since I was able to find one online I think that'll be the easiest option
Stop breaking things!
