    These things are so fun and dangerous. When I was 18 I rolled my cousins Honda Odyssey and my arm came out and the roll cage smashed my fingers and ripped my pinky finger off, and I had to have it sewed back on.

      I can't stand the fake homeless man videos and fake dog and puppy videos on UA-cam. They are a plague. People actually donate to the fake rescues that are in a 3rd world country where they have thousands of strays and stage rescues all day collecting money from overly emotional old ladies and gullible manchildren.

    Wow thats so nostalgic for me. I used to run a Honda ATC 250R back in the day. I remeber seeing an article on the Oddessy in Dirt Wheels, and thinking to myself how cool it would be to race one of those. Then they just kind of dropped off the face of the earth. I never thought about it again until watching this video. I think it's really cool that you're rebooting a piece of history and bringing it into the modern age.

    The frame seems perfect. A great base for an Electric conversion. With all the problems with the drivetrain, it would lend its self to a modifying it to a Reverse Trike! Increasing the wheelbase and by moving the motor back will give you more room for the extra batteries.
    Much ❤ for helping the Homeless man, I hope you gave him a good chain lock so it doesn't get stolen.
    A great channel! Keep up the good work!

    For clarity's sake the ORIGINAL Honda Odyssey was sold from 1977 to 1985. There were subtle upgrades as the model progressed in age. I'm only posting this because you said the FL350 Odyssey was only sold for a single year, BUT there were other versions that were sold for 8 years prior. This particular one is an FL350, but there were TWO generations of the FL250 model before the FL350. So while you're technically correct on your history of the FL350, I think viewers should be aware that there were more model years for the Odyssey ATV platform as well.

  • @supercuda1950
    @supercuda1950 Рік тому +1

    I have my own 350 Odyssey but mine has the original 2 stroke bored out with a bigger carb. With the auto clutch this thing will pull the wheels at will and the 2 stroke sound, you either love it or hate it (the neighbors hate it). Even though I have 2 e bikes, I'm not an e fan. I'd love to run yours offroad!

    Well they had the FL250, FL350 and the Honda pilot. The pilot is liquid cooled, 400cc 2 stroke and they were made from 89-90. They also had a big bore kit for it also. The pilot is the one you want, if you have a lot of money. That looks like it might be an aftermarket frame. Racing these was huge back then. That odyssey might of been worth a lot of money. Good thing you guys didn't hack it up.
