  • 2 months to restore this bike to almost original condition. Was it worth it? YES!
    Doing this restoration I improved my skills and learned new ones, now I also know my motorcycle inside out.
    Would I recommend doing the same to someone else? Maybe... This job actually took much longer than I imagined, there was an endless list of small problems and things to do, to have an acceptable result you have to persevere.
    I am no motorcycle professional but have been riding for almost 9 years I always dabbled with my bikes, costumizing them to my needs and doing regular maintenance.
    I love this bike because it is really simple.

    Very nice! Could you do a detailled video on that front windshield thats on the last picture? I would be very interested in how you did and how you attached this since I am planning to build one exactly the same ;)
    Nevermind, you already did one... Thanks!

    Amazing clip, thanks for sharing. I own a '96 Domi and have brought her back to a really good condition after her previous owner neglected her for a couple of years as a result of a failed project. Recently received a new YSS rear shock and some fabulous original white engine guards (found in an old Honda storage depot in the Czech Republic!!). I now use her as a daily rider and will be off-roading soon with legendary French stuntman Jean-Pierre Goy! Go Domi!

    Well done my friend! I own a Dominator since 1996! 24 years now ! I bought it when I was 20 and my trip was from the island of Lemnos (Greece) to Bologna/ Firenze at the age of 20 ! I remember that even the girls were impressed from the sound of the NX650 ! And it still makes memories !

    Very nice restoration.
    I have a 1989 Dominator and seems to have the same problem as you that it stalls when idling, I've changed the camshaft and auto decompression system but the problem still there. Did you manage to sort yours out and if you did what did you do?

    • @pgproductions4432
      @pgproductions4432  4 роки тому +1

      I still did not find the cause, I tried changing CDI, clean the carb, rejet it, clean the choke cable and test it for binding to no avail. It's a work in progress... Good luck! =)

      I used motor sealant (saratoga special motor sealant), seems to hold up fine if you don't stress the joint too much. I tried couple other kinds of glue but I had no luck, that plastic they used for the airbox does not like glue.

    • @pgproductions4432
      @pgproductions4432  4 роки тому

      Check the choke cable, if the cable doesn't move freely the choke could stay partially open at all times and mess up carburation, I had this problem for years and after replacing it the engine runs smooth at idle
