    If the plastics aren’t broken and just faded. You can definitely restore them, same thing with the gas tanks, I’ve restored many fenders, First get a pack of red scotch brite pads, and a water hose nearby and just clean off the top layer and the entire fender, after that start with 400grit sandpaper and go all the way to 2000grit, and then polish them with a dry buffing pad, no buffing compound. They’ll come out looking like new. Its a bit time consuming, but at the end It’s well worth doing, especially since those are the OEM fenders. And you can still buy reproduction decals.

    • @mrcbuilds

      Hi john, your 100% correct OE fender can be sanded and buffed, these are old aftermarket fenders on the rear the front is OE but has a huge crack running through it, as much as I like the "found" look, its hard to beat some nice bright red fenders! Thanks for watching!

    I will be following this video. No doubt you can put a lot of money into it and when it comes to stuff like this, you just don't think about the money, you just do what it takes to get it running good and safe and keep it in the family forever because you will never get out of it what you put into it. I found out first hand how hard to get some parts can be and how damn spendy they are. My Wife kinda thinks I am a little crazy for sinking the $$ into the 1984 model I bought last summer but I told her "Honey" it's an obsession, I wanted it and I don't give a damn what I have to do to get it in tip top operating shape. Now to completely restore it, nah, ain't gonna go that far because I do want to ride it, not look at it! Good luck with yours! if you need stuff, I recommend BDT motorsports in California.

    Hey bud, I've got a tri-moto 125 (much improved from stock, bored carb and PK exhaust, quick little guy for sure), that ran great until one day I ran out of top tank gas and it ran lean until I slowed and turned on the reserve. After that day it would take 6-10 pulls to start when it usually took 1-2. Then one day it almost killed me. After finally getting it started in the garage, it was high idling (normal when cold), so I always put it in gear and hold the brakes until the RPM's relax.. well this day I'm telling you when I put it in gear, she took off like a RAPED APE!! and threw me off the back while trying to get traction on my leg nearly snapping my leg off at the knee. Boy did that hurt. Should have gone to the ER, but got lucky with prayer I think.. almost 100% six months later.
    Anyway, do you have anyway to know why it "ran away" like that? Did I create an air leak somewhere maybe? What would you check first? Thanks

    • @mrcbuilds
      @mrcbuilds  2 роки тому +2

      I agree it's an air leak. I'd adjust the valves first, if the intake is tight it will idle high. If there good then a good carb cleaning should help. Keep us posted.
