      @ronstowell8646 ya mine too. Loved it and owning this one brings back so many memories. I've always thought this particular bike had a very nice fuel tank. Very nice lines and pretty to look at. Cheers!

      Thank you very much! I apologize for delayed reply. Been busy and just started posting new videos. Yes love the 80 cb650c! I owned one back in the late 80s when I was a teenager and rode it everywhere for many years. This isn't the same one though. Always told myself I would buy one and fix it up later in life and here it is! Cheers!!

      Thank you. I appreciate that. It was a fun project and is fun to ride. I have an oem 4 into 4 original exhaust for it that I'm going to put on soon. Should have a video on that coming out in the next little while. Should be a fun job I haven't worked on that bike in a while so be good to spend some time on it. Cheers!

      Right on. Yeah hard to find one complete with all it's stock parts. I bought a few parts bikes and used them to complete one. Some stuff is really hard to find for these bikes. Fuel tanks and exhaust is the most difficult

      FYI, I’m 37 y/o, new to your channel here and to owning a motorcycle. After days of researching what sort of bike I think I would enjoy, looking over the online inventories of every local power sports dealer filtering out any condition except used and deciding to aim my efforts more directly towards the person who is trying to trade or sell their bike that I am interested in and in our current era the people have determined FaceBook Marketplace so I spent several days combing through the hundreds of listings that returning in the results when searching for generic ass “motorcycle sport standard”. Then went through the first list to pull out a short list.
      One bike caught my eye. I don’t know shit about bikes really.. I mean, I’m a man and can do figure out a motorcycle I just haven’t had opportunities or urges to seek them out. I like “vintage” stuff sometimes, especially when someone who’s is green to bikes has a hard enough time trying to pick out the brand new one from the 40 year old one, and that’s what I felt about these Honda’s. Also, that particular Honda looks as if it just rolled out of factory and it has no damage, scratches at all, swirling in the paint, signs of wear in the leather seat, markings on the brand new looking tires, I couldn’t find a spec of dust on top of the bike nor a spec of grease or dirt on the underside anywhere. The paint is immaculate and the decals look new.. It’s a “1981 Honda CB650 - Standard” with 5,000 original miles on the odometer, and it was listed the day before yesterday for $2,500.. So I get in contact with this guy selling it after researching that particular motorcycle and he tells me about it, everything was standard and as I expected it to turn out, then I went out to eat a late lunch/early dinner with my mom. Well, as soon as I got back home I opened the for sale listing for the bike again to gaze at it a bit more and noticed that within the last couple of hours the seller dropped the price by $500 to a now new price for this bike, $2,000. I called the seller back and said I’ll take it, I can come out to pick it up Thursday after you get off.. Seller tells me that is fine but if someone else comes through on Tuesday and buys it, I’m SOL.. Which is to be expected,. However, he offered that I send a $100 deposit (money talks, he knows I’m not bullshitting now) and that he would consider a $100 deposit to mean I’m invested in this transaction, especially since I was asking him to pull it off the open market just by my affirmation to him over the phone that I would be buying it. So, i sent the $100 deposit and will be driving the 2.5 hour trip one way to meet the seller and pay the balance, then load the bike on my truck.
      Anyways, that whole story to say that I just bought a 1981 Honda CB650 with 5k miles on it and in brand new condition cosmetically for a grand total of $2,000 and a tank of gas to go get it and bring it back home.

      Right on congrats man on buying your first bike! The 1980 Honda cb650 was my first bike too. But way back a long time ago. Probably around 1988 or 89 can't remember exactly. I bought mine for 500 bucks back then and it was only 8 or 9 years old at the time. Hard to believe but it true. 500 bucks was more money in those days for sure but I was able to do it as a dishwasher in a local restaurant with not much trouble. Don't remember it being to hard to pay for. Anyway nice bike would live to see some pictures of it. Not sure how to do that tho. I will be doing a video on my cb650 coming up in a month or so. Going on a trip first but when I get back want to do some work to it. Cheers!

    Emptying the float bowls like that seems like a good idea, I imagine that it would prevent heavy deposits of residue forming and clogging the jets. Have you ever cleaned the carburetors on the bike? I'm trying to source parts at the moment for a 1980 cb650 and have only found a few sellers in Europe and UK, mainly eBay. Lovely bike you've got there.

      Thank you for leaving such a nice comment. I love this bike and think it turned out great. It's fun to ride and gets lots of looks. Great conversation piece. Yes, I've always thought it's a good idea if parking a bike for a while to empty the carbs. Whether it be by draining the float bowls or shutting the fuel off and running it out till it dies. Running it out seems like the easiest with less fuel spillage. Guess you could get tubes and collect it somehow .Probably would flush and crud out that way, but eh whatever. These carbs were just rebuilt, and the tank was cleaned and treated for rust, so it was probably not necessary at this time. Yes, I definitely had these carbs apart and cleaned them thoroughly. I bought a carb kit off eBay for around 50 bucks .This particular bike is a bit hard to find parts for. Just about everything is discontinued, and all the gaskets ,seals,bearings,oil filters, and air filters are aftermarket now . Just about everything I bought for this bike was through eBay .Things like exhaust ,tanks, and seats are going to have to be sourced used . It's pretty much all through eBay, but there are other sites that deal with some items but not as much as eBay. If it wasn't for eBay, I don't know what we would do, lol. Cheers! Thanks for watching
