    I rarely comment, and probably rarely ever click the 'like' button, but that intro made me smile. So yeah, I'm commenting and liking this vid. Awesome work.

    great project. I dont understand why you only have 40k subscribers. you are one of the best bike building youtube channels

    I dig the idea of a 7 day build, overhauling style. It helps a lot you have many spare parts and an amazing shop. You can exercise your project management abilities.

    Love the videos! I really like watching your thought-process during troubleshooting and fabrication. I found your channel while searching for info on my 73 Honda CL175. I'm having trouble getting it started, and when you mentioned the coils going to the wrong cylinders, the symptoms you described sound like the issue I'm having. Once it warms up a little I'm gonna swap them and hope for the best. Gonna try some tricks from your "will it run" videos. Thanks!

    @mariodesmo 4 роки тому +1

    That engine sounds really nice! In fact, I wouldn't mind having one of those 500/550's in my garage. Finished of course!
    I owned a Honda when in high school but traded it away to a sheet rock guy when I was building my house some ten or so years later. Traded the Honda for some sheet rock work. Seemed like a good idea at the time since the Honda needed a little TLC. I've regretted it ever since...

    Try a 50 50 solution of ‘Winter Green’ and rubbing alcohol and soak the carb boots for 24-48 hours and they come out really soft and pliable. Save you a few quid anyways! Cheers

    Stoked to watch this day by day! It would be great if you can add financials, like when you bought the project bike how much was it, how much do you think you can sell it for, then chart the parts costs as you go to get a final number on cost, and a final number of hours into the build.

  • @thomaslohr2864
    @thomaslohr2864 4 роки тому

    You could get an in-line spark plug tester for a few bucks. It's a light that plugs onto the spark plug and you plug the wire into the other end.

    Yo Mr. taylor, what a great & clear image! But u need to get a wireless blue tooth mic cuz its really hard to understand u when an engine is running beautiful like this one. Great job & I am proud of ur quality labor of ur hands. Tip: Don't pay attention to the haters & jealous. It isn't even worth to talk about them on ur video. Use ur precious time to focus on the good things ahead of u...keep ur cool. I am ur fan for sure. I wish I had seen ur videos sooner. thanks for the inspiration & keep the blessings from above over ur life & family...

  • @handyhippie6548
    @handyhippie6548 4 роки тому

    18 bikes!?! and i thought i had a lot of them with 6. hammer time didn't bother me. if it's junk, whatever you have to do to get the job done is fair play. if you get this done in 7 days, i'll feel bad. i have a yamaha i've been working on here and there for a couple of years. something more important always seems to come up, and by the time i get back to it, i forgot where i was. then i have to spend a week looking for parts i moved to make room for whatever it was, and figuring out what's next. i have 4 bikes in various states of disassembly in my 2 car garage. and i work on carpentry projects in it as well. one bay is set up as a woodworking shop, the other as a mechanical garage, while my vehicles sit outside in the weather. man, i gotta get more organized, i'm tellin ya.
