    Awesome stuff Eric! I’ve been looking forward to seeing what you’d do with that Tracy body. It’s amazing it’s going to be used in a movie 😊

    Love that bodywork on the bike 👍🏻 it’s a little loud for my liking if I were riding it, but I’ll bet it sounds great going down the road watching it.😀

    It'll be fun to see the CB750 Tracy Kit bike in a movie. All the hardcore vintage Honda guys are gonna love seeing the character hop on that bike. I hope the actor has a little experience riding a motorcycle.
    I was just trying to tune out a very slight sputter in my 75 CB750. It only happens at steady 1/8th throttle around 3200 rmps... It's been impossible to get rid of, but it's a mild sputter. I just put one size smaller pilot jets in her, which actually got rid of the problem but created a hanging idle situation that I can't seem to get rid of by tuning the air screws. So I'll probably go back to 40 pilots. The slight sputter at a very specific RMP I can live with. I've been living with it for years. Once you take off the stock exhaust (which someone did years ago) perfect tuning can be tricky.

      I think if I had baffles in the exhaust it would be so much easier to tune. I am searching for other exhaust. Thanks for watching.

    The CB Four looks great with the Tracy Body!
    It's a shame in Germany the fiberglass bodies are unfortunately not allowed, and neither are the cleaned-out silencers!😀
    Interesting camera work.

      These are the pipes that came with the bike. Looking to replace them with something quieter.
      Wish I could take credit for the camera work. I just strap the GoPro Max 360 camera to the bike and ride! Then manipulate the footage after.
      Thanks for watching!

    The CB750w sounds really beastly. Yes, she has become something special in all respects. For me she is not a beauty as such, but she is one of the few of her kind. A wonderful bike. I kind of like it after all!

    • @motorcyclerewind

      I was always a fan of the Tracy bodies. When I first put this one on. I was underwhelmed. But the more I look at it the more I like it. Such a rare piece. Thanks for watching.

    Great looking bike. And straight pipes, too. Reminds me of riding my GS1000E with no muffler after someone stole the muff and my right side mirror. Rode around with my straight VHR pipes down to the collector and a single pipe and no muff at all. Congrats on the bike getting to be a movie star. Just make sure they have insurance to cover it just in case. You are such a tease with the Digisync. I was all excited to see this work and then "footage lost." Good thing you couldn't hear what came out of my mouth just then. Is it really as painless to remove the body and seat as you showed? Obviously you have to disconnect the tail light and pull the fuel line from the petcock, but other than that is it really that easy? Enjoyed seeing you ride her, 50 yrs. young and looking good. Once you get the carbs sorted she'll purr...or roar, depending on your right hand.

    • @motorcyclerewind
      @motorcyclerewind  7 місяців тому +1

      Yes removing the body is that easy. Remove bolt then fuel line and tail light plugs.
      I may have said the same thing as you did when I discovered The Digi Sync footage was corrupt. It is so easy to use.
      Thanks for watching.

    Try to get a set of decent muffler for it. It could sound so much better. It's a beautiful machine, I have never heard of the aftermarket style for the CB750 before, but I am an Australian

    Don't put ethanol gas in it . Those old fiberglass tanks can't handle that stuff ... Yep way lean ... Just love your F250 .. What year ??

    • @motorcyclerewind
      @motorcyclerewind  8 місяців тому +3

      You’re right non-ethanol only. The truck is a 1978 Ford F-150 4x4. I traded a motorcycle for it. The. We put a new engine and transmission. It’s a beast.

  • @cyclebuster
    @cyclebuster 8 місяців тому +1

    I pray to god you didn't put one drop of ethanol gas into that fiberglass tank. You can literally watch them fall apart inside. Did you give it a full tune up? It sounds a bit rough

    • @motorcyclerewind
      @motorcyclerewind  7 місяців тому +2

      No ethanol came close to it. It does sound rough. Have to get some jets or different exhaust to finish tuning the carbs. Thanks for watching.
