    The f150 was reason I sent that fluid gun. You should be able a spray degreaser using an air supply instead of a spray bottle. It should work with that degreaser I sent you in the gallon jug

    A very nice refresh of an old bike. Those Asian imports are amazingly resilient and reliable. Someone is getting a sweet ride with camo character! And the Bondo tutorial is a great lesson in materials and labor conservation. Great video!!

    The 1400 motor is an excellent powerplant. I used to sell Intruders in the early 2000's. So many aftermarket parts for them. As a biker myself it's great to see you tear into that one.

    They are often use for rebuilds.

    @bufordghoons9981 2 роки тому +1

    Well this was a curve ball, did not know WB worked on bikes too. I get a surprise just about every video. It makes sense that skills from working on a car would transfer to motorcycles.
    I cringed when WB used the spray paint in close proximity to the other cars. I would want nothing like that near a new paint job on a car. And I would have taped over the gas can opening to make sure no paint particulates went into the gas tank although it probably would not matter much if at all.
    It was definitely like watching a Bob Ross episode, expecting WB to say, "Just wipe that cute little scraper nice 'n easy to make it happy...our happy, friendly scraper in our happy garage. I can almost hear the wrenches singing and the screwdrivers dancing to happy good-time music."
