Hi "Restoration of Everything", thank you for all the patience, time and efforts restoring this Honda engine and sharing it with the community. I have a vintage motorcycle that I wanted to save and I was so depressed by the effects of the elements on my prize bike (1983 Honda SilverWing 650 who suffered under a tarp in New-England while I suffered under a tent in the desert in Iraq). Your attention to details and specifically, demonstrating that it can be done with simple tools reassured me. Could you list all the products that you used for the restoration, some images flash so quickly? Thank you again for such demo, Ciao, L (Maine, USA)
It isn't I have the same bike and an experienced mechanic made a blunder and the gears won't shift properly We had to take the engine apart and try again
super, le mec connait bien son boulot maintenant il faut le son avec toutes les explications et les mise en garde , et la vidéo doucement pour les débutants , merci beaucoup
Awsome video. I love how you kept everything visual and step by step. This isn't my exact Honda, but this gave me some confidence to take the next steps on my own project.
Fantastic work on the engine, really clean and running oh so sweet. What about restoring the remainder of the bike? That would finish it off just lovely. Love all your videos; keep them coming bud. You clearly are a very good mechanic. Continued good health to you and your family.
Great restoration job! I enjoyed watching it and nice not to have some nurve racking music playing in the background! You did a wonderful job! Thanks for sharing! Beautiful engine now!
Almost identical to the CM250 engine. The bearings rarely need to be changed, but that engine looks like it was a long time between oil changes. The dual timing chain is interesting. When I did mine I used oven cleaner to get any black sludge out. It's a fairly robust little engine, but only with regular timing chain replacement. There's no filter on those engines, making timely oil changes critical. Those long head bolts next to the tensioner strip very easily. I found the torque values for them incorrect in the Haynes manual. I ended up helicoiling them after stripping them. Even after rebuilding them these engines will burn oil if run at high RPMs for long periods of time. Not a lot of oil, but some. The high-polish aluminum doesn't stay bright for long as it oxidizes quickly. Using a clearcoat is a good idea. I'm surprised he didn't clean up the bike before reinstalling the engine. Anyway, good rebuild vid.
With what tools he has, he does a remarkable job. I'm sure that if he had a better selection, we would see a master mechanic in the country that he lives in. I see some very good comments from some that may look like they are derogatory, but I see good people wanting to help the man to improve. 👍 👏
Stunning mate. I have a CD125 Benly that I am going to restore next year. I will be using this for help. Well done 'our kid' a Salford term of endearment. SALFORD just next to Manchester. Please show us more.👍👍👍
@@ClutchNixon Yeah, I was being sarcastic lol. I figured that you picked up on that. It will be fully broken in within seconds of startup without any lube.
If you fill the engine FULL of diesel fuel and let it set a couple of days it is much easier to clean the inside after you take it apart. Just an idea. Nice work.
Yaps It's really gud to saw or Listen point ☝️ was right BRO 👍 specialy if you tryin too given da KNOWLEDGE for those who they really wanna be needs too knows n sincerely learned by URS INFORMATIVE works . . Another point ix If u trying too given a INFORMATIONAL WORK'S by silently GUD FOR those who's they wanna be easier for learned n try reminded it 😊 to BUT SORRY to say da another facts ix sometimes in something's lill 🧐 bit 😉 importantly
Работа на 3-. Герметик наносят тонким слоем а не в толщину прокладки. И нет смысла менять поршни не расточив цилиндры.у него видео о том как не стоит ремонтировать технику.
@@droceretik No oil on lube on bearings, seals, cams, gears, pistons, rings, or wet clutch pack. He didn't torque anything which will cause uneven and premature wear. You should also use a drop of oil when assembling into aluminum threads so that they don't strip or gall. The next part is just my opinion but he used only cheap Chinese parts instead of Honda parts which while they will work, are not nearly as good.
Awesome job with minimal tools! Having done it myself as a youngster for the first time, I cringed a bit at seeing the clutch plates being assembled dry. I had to take the clutch back out and soak them in oil before it would work for me, on my Honda CB400T. Did you have no problems with a slipping clutch on the test ride? Great video, thanks!
Thread locker is a good idea with the oil pump bolts. They're locked from the factory and require a nut driver with a 5lb sledgehammer to get out. In this case I'm puzzled at how easily his came out. The engine may have been apart before. He also doesn't show himself honing the cylinders for the new rings, something I did.
