1974 Suzuki T500 Junkyard Save - Runs & RIDES! 

Hallo, ich finde euer Video super👌. Da kann man mal sehen das nichts unmöglich ist, so ein cooles Motorrad wieder zum Leben erweckt 👍 spitze! Du bist ein super Mechaniker

I once had an old honda Enduro that had a rusty tank .bought a kit called creame, 2 bottles one acid etching solution an a white silicon mix applied after etching . Worked great rust free after drying , the white silicon solution stays in place adhering inside gas tank .just like new. Nice job bringing it back to live. An other tip, add a little 2 stroke synthetic oil to gas while working on the start up . Thank again .

Really great content…thank you.

From discarded trash to awesome runner!! Amazing JOB Daniel and Brittany!! Keep up the great work and looking forward to the next video! God Bless Y’all!

I love what you do regarding these old motorcycles.

I grew up riding with my dad on the back of this very same bike even the same color. It's like a trip down memory lane hearing it start up and run. Good job!

Thank's man for make this bike alive again..

love that sound

Great sound on that bike.. love this one.. great yob.

As long as the crank seals are good these are literally tough as old boots

you are doing a good job Ihad a gt 250 back in 1983

Awesome!

I had a Titan 500 in the middle 70’s. She ate quite a few 750 mklll’s. 60+ mpg. Synthetic oil. Rode it thru snow, ice, rain, wind, and sun.

Man that thing looks like it hauls the mail

I would love to know what the average selling price would be for one restored to as new condition would be.

Use steel wool to get rid of the rust

Good job! just check, looks like smoke only from the left exhaust pipe, could be clogged jet or oil lines might have an air bubble? Good luck

Was that deliberately buried for the video?

I've thought a lot about this. Yes, you need content but stripping one engine to get a gasket for another bike just seems futile and using silicon to repair a gasket that you know will fail is also a waste of time.I could go on and on but I also appreciate that you were doing a "Will it run?" without much financial investment. The time you invest in stripping out parts to re-use is time you could have invested repairing the tank, or other things, while waiting for parts to arrive. Yes I know it's all money but your time is also money. Either you or someone else will have to do all of this work a second time and you will also have to replace the stripped parts on the bike that you bought as a parts bike. You're just pushing the problem down the line. Yes I know that the engine needs to be stripped right down and bearings, seals replaced but honestly some items just need to be replaced as you're doing the work to avoid having to do the job a second or third time.

What about a video on the Indian?

too much smoke, I'd bet the crank seals are shot. That is a common need with that motor
