8:32 thanks shadetree I love that story. Is there an older video describing that
Josh, you DO have a starter. It's under the rectangular cover that's under the carbs. The thing that you're missing from the side is the sprocket cover.
@@LtJackboot I confirmed with the previous owner that they did removed the starter 🤷🏻♂️
What do you want for the seat
Fork paint is hammertone, more commonly used as a machinery paint. The genuine version of it, Hammerite, is very tough.
That Cb750 tickles a special place in my heart. I remember a few of my dads friends having very similar builds back in the 90's. Definitely some cool nostalgia and fits the sketchiness a lot of other bikes you've had.
"back in the 90's"??? The CB750 came out around 1969, I had a new one in 1976 and bought a used one in the mid '80's. These bike go forever and are real classics.
I know the CB came out way before the 90's. My first experience and earliestmemories of them are from the 90's They were probably the first bikes I saw with raked out front ends and custom tanks. My dad road typical so cal style stock Harleys. @@tokairic3925
I have an '81 cb750 project, but I don't have any mechanic friends to bail me out. Looking forward to seeing yours progress.
The starter is under the chrome cover just forward of where you were looking for it.
Gotta love the early CT90 . Had hi n low range . Bullet proof bike for farm use . Cheers n beers from Australia .
That looks like Hammered metal finish on the front end. Few different brands available but I bet it's cheap rattle can to cover up rust pitting on the forks. It hides a multitude of evils.
Billbo hair just guarantees your order as an authentic Brap star packed merch order! ❤
The pure child-like joy in your giggles when you talked about Madam Hexe had me dead
Front end is called hammered finish paint.
The starter is housed under that chrome cover behind the cylinders/under the intake manifold...
Here's an observation. How are you going to shift with the existing exhaust? The original mid mount shifter lever is all but touching the exhaust header. So you may be stuck with forward controls unless you can find a set of headers and pipes that route differently. I always admired those old CB750 Choppers. Dead reliable and still a blast to ride. Cheers Josh! Zip~
I’d give a 12 star review if there was an animal hair in my order! Bikes and animals are my favorite things! I have a stray cat from the neighborhood that likes to come in my garage when I’m working. He’s always welcome!
A Trail 90 gave me stitches and a cool scar.
The front hub and brake look like Honda ct90, it was common to use them on choppers in SoCal. There was also a “Stop-a-Chopper” system that was worthless. In 1970 I had a Frisco style ‘49 Indian Chief with no front brake. Fun at stop lights on hills with the foot clutch.
I believe you are correct on the ct90 front wheel
That springer front end is powder coated already, it’s hammered silver black finish. Common to spice things up
I love that ball valve foe the fuel. no sarcasm. I think it's cool. keep that give it a braided fuel line
Ha..me too!! 😊
No low ballers I know what I got.
😂
Just needs a battery, ran when parked
Must be said in a certain Mr. Regular voice, no less
I think I heard passports. That could be some fun adventures, a group travel from here.
@@Your-Name_ I buy a fair number of old crappy bikes, I've got a few batteries of various sizes that are all good. Funny when someone tries to pull that one and you come prepared.
That custom mechanical throttle is sooo going on a wishlist. It tickles the old pickle in just the right way..
The fork finish i've heard referred to as "futuristic black", as Hutch BMX back in the 80s had a few frames and parts painted that way. I like the finish.
The nostalgia seeing the first few streets in the begininng, i grew up in my abulas house right on that block
8:43 *PAPA MEAT*
Ey I don't mind Bilbo hair 😂
Ed Marsh is the best. He's such a great inspiration with regards to how bulletproof and adventure capable the C90s can be.
I am so glad you explained that engine on FnA’s chopper. I was looking at that thinking how the heck is there a kickstart on a M8. The noticed the cylinders were shovel and was to distracted to notice the evo lower
Careful with generic oil tanks, do bikes have restrictions ( british do) so the top end doesnt get half the oil.that frame is aftermarket, btw. 90%sure its a Santee.
My first bike when I was a kid I’m talking 7 years old in the early 70s “giving my age away” was a Honda QA 50. It was great being a kid!
Yamaha is now on the Trail platform.Looks almost the same.🤔🤨🤘
Now we are talking. Super cub, cub and this.... We want in the UK
Check the small cover on top the engine. Thats where the starter is located
Just what I was going to say. The cover under the carbs is where you'll find the starter cavity. Most UJM's have it there.
In Australia the Super Cub is the postal service motorcycle (The Postie) 💪
“ do what the tampons do “ that was so funny
I love that you kick start the Trail 125 even though it has electric start. I've always called that paint on the front end Hammer Tone.
The girder front end has been painted with Rust-O-leum "Hammered" rattle can paint.
😎👍😎
Get the chopper running ..dependable ..don't remove or add anything..make it a raffle bike ...
Ha Josh . The starter on a CB750 is under the chrome cover below the carbs on top of the engine block ...
The starter is under the chrome cover right behind the cylinders. The chain cover is missing
First motorcycle I had when Jr high was a Honda Trail 55. 1964 was the year it was. Great first bike it was.
You know you have to get that chopper running and ride it at least once before you get to fixing its flaws.
Very much looking forward to your cb750 project!
From Japan!
Keep it up all ways so good fun and always some of the best info keep it up 😊
No frickin way I just watched your 4000 mile Harley adventure and every time having to push start im thinking my little Honda CG125 i can sit on the seat take about 2 strides pop the clutch and she fires up then next video I start and your on a Trail 125 giving C90 adventures a shout out!!!! Gutted they aren't bringing them to the UK. Awesome stuff deffo subscribed already watched about 3 hours of your vids!
Merry Christmas to u and the Army, Shade.
Got a Honda monkey seriously the most fun I've ever had on a motorcycle
Your starter for your Honda is under the fancy chrome plate below the carbs.
The Silverfish would be a great name for the cb750 chopper
8:52 - lovely and gracious.
I have the same oil tank on my 1970’s cb750 chopper project! Mine is also mounted that way and seems to be the correct way when removing the battery.
I want to build a chopper soooo bad haha
one day!
Great video as always you legend!
I just got a 1970 trail 70 running a couple days ago. Same color as the one at ride factory
"Postie Bike" is The icon bike of Australia!
I love that you can be riding a different bike each week. You just hop on and go with so little fu*&'s to give. A Biker's Biker :)
Nothing kicks over with easy than the Grandfather of Goldwings the GL 1000 from 75 and 76
First bike I ever rode was a 1960s restored Honda cub red with white fairings
4 STAR REVIEW...WTF! The bilbo hair alone is worth 5 🌟 geesh!!!! Hope You Guys Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS BRO...
Dude that design needs to be a large back patch, it's fuckin AMAZING
wheres the maagna man?! cant wait for you to get your new bike figured out Keep it up!
fury front fork with a hammertone finish
The starter is inside the chrome cover in the case under the carbs
22:30. Hammerite paint. Check out, awesome paint.
Hi there from Indonesia! These days it's mostly either Nmax or PCX that you see on the road
The Paint on the Forks, Looks like a product called Hammerite by Dulux/Cuprinol part of the AkzoNobel group. I think you may have trouble getting that off, as I remember One of my friends painted his Motorcycle engine with that stuff, It had to be chipped away took a long time. Nice Chopper though 😏🤟
my first bike was a trail 70... banana seat and ape hangars on wheel barrel tires lol
@Shadetree, That "Coating" on the front is Powder Coating and it's called Silver Vein. Probably a good durable powder, but it's mostly used on like patio furniture or the like.
A shadetree never disappoints 🤟👽🚲🎬
I read somewhere awhile back that the Honda Super Cub is the #1 best-selling motor vehicle of ANY kind. The #2 best-seller ever is the Toyota Hilux.
My orders are supposed to arrive today 12/23 !!!!
Presents to myself hahaha
Electric starter should be under that chrome rectangle behind the cylinder with the 2 bolts
We had a Trail 90 on the ranch. Kick down the granny gear, and that thing would climb trees. More than once, we used it to rescue GOATS out of the canyon, because they went where they couldn't go....but the 90 did.
I saw a hard tail old school chop on FB marketplace for 9000 and it was gone in two days. It looked awesome 😎 1200cc chain drive.
Small displacement bikes can still be fun, my little 200cc sport bike still puts a smile on my face every time I ride it.
I thought the electric starter on the CB750 was under that chrome cap that sits under the carbs.
That paint on the forks, Hammered I think hammerd steel, KrinKle hammered steel. I forget but rustoleum hammered collection for sure. funny that you mentioned that wal mart clothing rack! i noticed that as well, i was trying to match the factory end cap paint for the Old school kicker ZR, DX and 460 amplifier series and i saw that , even years ago, almost the exact same pattern. LOL
Shadetree on an asia tour???? I look forward to seeing that! 😳
In Asia, any scooter 125 and below will do. You’ll just need to adjust to the local rider rules, and have an international licence especially in Indonesia. The local police can be brutal with fines for unlicensed foreigners.
The sprocket cover is missing, the electric start is under that rectangular chrome cover.
My first bike was a 1976 cb 750 ss loved that bike only issue was keeping it running like a champ when it wanted to run right it was a beast of a bike when it didn't want it,it was a shit to start and keep running
It did have electro start but didn't work kick only.even though i have electro start and fuel injection now i still kinda miss the 750 banana ss it was a mans man kinda sport bike not the lazy mans sport i have now😂
Believe it or not if you ever visit Japan I guarantee you’ll see more Harley’s than you would imagine, there’s a whole Harley/ chopper culture there
I used to watch that "Hunting Harleys" guy before I read online how hes a convicted pedophile and he was always getting pissed that most of the vintage Harleys that he had got bought and shipped to Japan.
Hi Josh, just wanted to share some personal experience. I’ve been to Japan several times for work and have walked and gawked for a bunch of hours. In the places I have been, I have actually seen more sportsters than Honda trails! Doesn’t make sense, but I think there is some displacement tier system that makes anything over a certain displacement difficult to obtain. Anything over that threshold is expensive to get and similarly difficult.
Most of what I see are blatantly scooters, as their displacement has tax, licensing, and parking advantages.
IIRC, the cutoff is at 1000cc. At that size & up, you'll have to take an "advanced" license exam after having ridden smaller bikes for a couple of years (I think) and pay higher fees & taxes.
Im not 100% on the CB750, but my CB500 starter is under that cover on top of the engine case.
Starter is under that chrome cover under the carbs.
The wife and I are hoping to go do some 2 wheeling the week of my bday next year in Tokyo for my bucket list. Might splurge and rent one of those sick modified Suzuki 650 scooters, or if I can find one a chopper/bagger just for a touch of home.
I had a trail 90 for a few years. Wish I still had it
Is there another drawing for that tan shovel head tour glide?
Crap, I love that Honda chopper!
original 1970s honda trail bikes were cool. i like honda goldwing dct too.
Cue a UA-cam crossover episode where you have @ClassicOctane on to inspect your cb750.
I will recomend to watch Cikgu Offroad Channel,you will find our teacher use Honda Ex5 f.i as workhorse in deep jungle.
Check out Honda Pro Kevins CT 181 build. Awesome bike.
Could be an old Santee frame. Cool in their day, and still cool today.
For about 20 plus years the Australian Post Office used them,So here in Australia there known as Postie bike's
That throttle is sick! Why aren’t they all made like that? 15:46
Paint on forks looks like, good old hammerite😂
Low brown customs sell a juice drum if your trying to fix that drum the easy way
how crazy is it that we can go to a Honda dealer in 2023 and see trail 125's and monkey's new in the showroom.
It wasn't because of wolves. The Christmas truce happened the first Xmas of WW1. A large section of the west front. Both sides simply stopped fighting and met in no man's land, exchanged cigarettes, rations, sang songs, shared booze (that didn't exist at the front) . It ended when some French officers, fearing the war might break down broke up the "fun" at gun point, sent their men back to their trenches. The Germans and Brits also retuned to their respective sides. The war started again the next morning. No other stop in the fighting for 4 more years. I'm a historian as a hobby. Bikes, guns, old cars and history. 😊🇺🇲
6:24 or a Rude Boy's scooter. Lol
I thought about getting a springer front end.
NO! Not a single CB750 had a mount attached from the top of the engine to the frame. Never.
The only engine mounts were at the rear of the engine and at the front of the engine near the base of the cylinders.
The rectangle sissybar need to be a shorter triangle too
i went to have my chrome sissy bar brackets powder coated and they were telling me that something in the chrome causes the powder coat to have problems and flake off
You know, the Trail 125, for what it is, is kind of good looking in a pugnacious way.
