      Great. You'll find they ride well and are real easy to work on.

    DONT WARM IT UP ON THE KICK STAND IF THIS IS BONE STOCK.
    OIL PUMPS WILL SUCK AIR. only warm up upright f you do not have pickup tube update.
    These are not metric bikes. Nothing metric on them.
    #525, was 310th off the line, now has 50000 miles. I do all my own work.
    You are a good ambassador for the brand and I thank you

      You may want to pull mufflers on this one. Top muffler is wobbling. Muffler brackets will tear or loose weld.. typical for our Xs

      Thank you. I did not know about that one. Can't say I do that much except to film that it runs in this video. I'll check with Jamie on my other EH.

      Jamie Jones is good stuff.
      Another vendor in Minnesota is Duane Judge, also very good.
      I get cornered, they are my go to... Always willing to help

    Hey there! would you mind if I used some of your video as B-roll in a Super X video I am working on right now?

    • @GuysGearsAndGrit
      @GuysGearsAndGrit 8 місяців тому

      to clarify, we have a super x here in the shop but it unfortunately doesn’t run right now and we want to be able to show some running ones :)

    Cool Retro Design...
    Too bad that the new manufacturer couldn't continue building these bikes.
    It takes a while to work out all the kinks, and they could have possibly been producing some great bike's by now.
    I love the looks and style of the Henderson.
    Thanks for sharing ✌️ 😎

      I read that the guy's partner embezzled all the money, forcing the company to go under.

    I own #1928 haven't started it since 2010. One day it will run again.

      Boy, that's near the end of the run. You'll be happy to know the fuel system is actually very easy to work on

    I am so drawn to these beautiful bikes. Need to get one someday soon! Are they good daily riders?

    • @bullpencycles
      @bullpencycles  2 роки тому +1

      When properly updated, they are perfectly fine. There's a small but very supportive owner's group on Facebook for them too!

    Was that think as clackety as it sounded on the video? Sounded like a tin can with a bunch of nuts and bolts rattling around in it. I bought $1000 worth of EH stock, back in the day...hoping this would take off. Bummer that it didn't. Drove by the old factory a few months back. So sad to see the Hanlon's run the company into the ground.

    • @bullpencycles
      @bullpencycles  2 роки тому +1

      I don't think so. Sounds pretty much the same as I remember, but I'll dust off my other one for a second video and we can compare. Stay tuned and thanks for the input!
