Yes!!! Love your road trip videos! Hope some more with the z900rs are in the works (which, btw I purchased thanks to your favorable review)! Longtime fan here, keep up the great work!
Love the style! However, the throttle is a bit too sensitive for my liking. Unfortunately, even after an ECU flash, the problem persists to the point where I'm thinking of selling it. Still, it's undoubtedly one of the most beautiful bikes out there! @kentuckyyankee
I’m so glad you got a chance to go to Florida! You deserve a few days in the land of sunshine! The old girl ran like a top… but stopping wasn’t as easy! Another good adventure! Thanks Ben
Good job! Wasn't expecting a camping trip, looked like fun, except for the brake. Totally agree with you regarding breakdowns on the road. They are no fun at all! I would much rather fix stuff at home with no rush and all my tools / spares.
Love a road trip/camping video, love how you are going 87 with dodgy brakes😂 i can't believe how many pumps there were at that fuel station. nothing like that in the uk😊
Awesome! This made my Sunday morning. For a future project, how about saving one of the old school DSMs - eclipse, laser, talons a non-turbo one. Appreciate the 20+ min video
After sitting in a open-to-elements garage 1995 through 2013, my brother-in-law got my '85 5-spd dual carb, full-of-holes exhaust, Lude running well-enough, so I replaced 2 tires (put'em on the front), and with the rear two (& a spare) on shit tires, I drove from Fort Wayne, IN to Terre Haute for a business deal. Started running a little rough, sometimes hard to start. Would stall at every stop sign, so foot always on the accel pedal. Made it to Oklahoma, where my wife flew in, and joined me for the remainder of the drive down to Phoenix. Ran lean the whole trip, documenting 30+ mpg lol ... made it the 1800 miles. Ended up parting it out in Phoenix, and crushing the frame (rusty bendy). Still have a couple boxes of parts!
@@kentuckyyankee To this day I long for these types of trips. I had previously explored California (from Fort Wayne) in an '85 Accord base w/ 220k mi (no issues), and then the SouthWest in an '87 Prelude Si w/ 200k mi, camping all over and exploring neat geological features. This time (in '13) it was a whimsical hope that I could keep the low-mileage '85 forever, but I simply did not take the time to take care of the carbs. Gave up 😞 Anyways, thanks for sharing your great story! I was with you in spirit!
had the same issue with the master on my 320 when I cobbled a set up together. had my front brakes SMOKING! went with a completely different set up to remedy my issue since the pedal was way to far up and didn't have enough adjustment to get it down far enough. im assuming those are original parts for that car so im sure a little fiddling and you'll get it squared away!
Yeah. I'm not sure why these parts aren't right. Possibly, there is an adjustment inside the booster? I need to get back in there. The 320 is a beast! I'm starting back up on the 520 today.
I was driving to Florida for vacation and my water pump froze up and melted the drive belts off. Stuck on the side of the interstate. Louisiana. July. 90 + degrees. Thunderstorm. Got towed- left it at the shop to get fixed - shop gave me a loaner. Was back on the road 4 hours later.
I'm here, friend! I don't know when the next video will be. UA-cam takes a lot of time that I don't have right now, unfortunately. Hope you're doing well.
Understood! Glad you're still kicking! It has been busy here as well. Thought I would check you when I got time to be on yt. Cya when I cya!@@kentuckyyankee
ahh heck yea, road trip that beast, this should be good - just use the e brake to stop. Ahh, power steering is over-rated. Does everyone know you get free charcoal? Next time, strap the qt50 with upgraded exhaust on the back and rip it around the campground. Good lord, how many pumps are there?
Great trip Benny!!! The big difference I see with your channel is you get the car drivable not just started!! All those other you tubers (jyd and others) are just Benny Wannabes!!!!!
@4:10 Every single Prelude, Accord, and Civic we had in the 90s (all '83 - '91 models) fired up "bing-bing-bang!" Love that 🙂
Yes!!! Love your road trip videos! Hope some more with the z900rs are in the works (which, btw I purchased thanks to your favorable review)! Longtime fan here, keep up the great work!
Thank you!! Hard to beat a Z900RS I'm sure you love it!

Thank you! Hopefully more to come.
Nice trip Benny... Big thanks!!
You're always welcome Tom! Thanks for watching.

Thanks! Yeah, why travel with something likely to break down. Doesn't make sense.

That's for watching! She had a lot more than 87, but I was too scared to push the limits of this old rig. 😂😂
You are an absolute hoot....what great Sunday morning entertainment....were though bread and butter pickles....thanks for the ride
Thank you! Wickle Pickles, I strongly recommend you try them.

Thank you!! Possibly in the future, we could find one of those cars to fix up, but for now, the Datsun has got to be priority.
Looks like a fun trip even with the car trouble. For sure some good eating!

Mikes going to be pissed when he finds out you have his travel mug!
He won't find out, how would he? 😈
My lips are sealed Benny! Hope you get the problem with the Honda solved.
I was so excited to see you road trip in that old car. I got my wife up to watch with me she was not happy I am jealous
😂😂 Thank you!! Hope you enjoyed the video!
Nice video. Also - along with cheap gas, Bucees has CLEAN restrooms. Often a rare find on the road.

Good times. I use to love my honda prelude. G r et cars
The only thing hard to love is getting in and out of it, as an older gentleman like myself.
There is a Value on the trans (speedo)that makes the power steering tighter on the highway and looser at lower speeds
Thanks! I noticed the hoses on the trans. I'll have to look into how it works. The steering has been fine ever since it fixed itself. 😂

That's good service !
i hate to drive an old car two hours from home i can't imagine a giant road trip
Earth to Benny, come in Benny. Where you been Kentucky Yankee?

Thanks, Roger! Appreciate that, but I'm not sure anybody would want to be Benny. 😂😂
There got some Tee in your Sugar 😅
I knew someone would get me on that! 😂😂 Those packets are actually coffee, they're good too. 😀
