this was donated to us from Carl that got this for free while buying some other bikes, this one was pretty busted up but lets see if we can rebuild it for free?

Hey guys and how's it going hey we're going to continue on this uh chinese pit bike. I think it's 110cc honda clone that has definitely seen better days on the last video we kind of went through an assessment and got it running. Uh had no carburetor on it. Some stuff was in boxes, went through that and were able to get it running and then ran it through.

The gears still needs a bunch of love. The handlebars are bent there's a bunch of hardware missing, there's no brakes all the plastics for the seat and the seat itself are trash, there's no muffler on it and whatever else we find along the way. So we're going to continue on and see if we can get the rest of that stuff fixed and make it a very cheap trail rider for a little money that would make it cheap right when it's done. This is another one that came with.

It should look something like this: this one's in a little bit better shape, but i figured we'd start with the ratty one first and hopefully not steal any parts off of this one to make that one complete without further ado. Let's get into it start turning some wrenches alright, so we should probably maybe jump on the rear wheel. Next, try putting area in the tire last time it just pissed right through it. My guess is it probably drove on a flat, so we got to go.

Take that apart anyway, to go see what's going on inside there and then we need to go see what's going on with the brakes. Let's get it up in the air a little bit more. Maybe we can get this out of the way, so the brake pedal can move and we'll just kind of see if uh any brakes will come back, possibly with bleeding it. Let's see if we get anything out of it, it looks like there's fluid in it.

We'll pop that cap off real, quick and see there's the little reservoir - and i don't know if that's just dirty or if that's filled with fluid, we'll get that top off hopefully and we'll try to get some brake fluid in it. What's it got for a bleeder, it does have a bleeder right here. Josh will probably see if it's even complete, no well there you go see what i'm seeing here. I don't think there's any brake pads in there yeah that's not going to do much yeah.

All right, let's go see if it's, if it moves at all, no i'm not seeing anything happen. All right do some exploring might as well go check the front ones right see if that's got complete. I think it's got pads in it. At least i wonder if they're the same, i rather have rear brakes.

Actually it feels like we have front brakes. Maybe we can steal some stuff if that's to eyeball, that does that look like that? Maybe i don't think they stole the brake pads out for the other bike, because the other is that water. I think that was water. That's not a good sign to come out of the line uh.

I don't think they stole the pads out of it. For the other bike, because the other bikes got drum brakes on the back, unless this got all kind of crapped out - and maybe they took the front if they match the front - they put them on the front because i can see them being worn but gone all Together, let's see yeah and waters, water is pouring out of it. That does not make a very good hydraulic fluid. Well, it does for a little while and it freezes up.
Let's go uh eyeball that other front caliper see if it's the same as that. That would be a no unless it mounts up to it. Similar, like these two are, can be swapped around. I wonder if we could swap the the bleeder for that.

I'm just saying this only looks like it has one load, one pin that it rides on it's gon na have another one. There are they same width apart. I think they're, a little different looks like they're a little wider, the back one, a little wider all right. What's that saying, brakes are for quitters, let's see if we can get.

These are the adjusters that tension the back wheel, so you can back them off and we'll get the bolt out of it. I don't know if that is factory. This thing looks like it's uh, not exactly built for a bike. It's like something to bolt your deck together, i said deck.

We go spin that off we'll get this shaft out of there, get that tire off of there see what we got for tube. I guess the missing rear, brake kind of explains why all the plastics are busted up and the handlebars are bent. There see a spacers fall out of where that side, all kinds of stuff popping out, and let me put those in some kind of row. Bearing fell out of this side so like that, you came out of there and that i'll grab that bracket and we'll see all right.

Let's get that wheel out and we got another spacer in the middle. Remember that was in the middle, i'm going to call you later get some tire on tire irons, on that this little harbor freight stand for taking the tires off that are tubeless for the most part, but the smaller the tire i found the harder it is to Deal with, i don't think this one's going to be any different, see if we can get that one. Do you think the tube is going to be ripped off the valve stem? That's my guess. I don't see a bead lock on it anywhere generally, a bead lock.

Will be like a a stud or a bolt sticking through the rim that clamps down on it and even if the tire goes low or flat, it stops the tire from turning on the rim. There's not one here got ta unbolt the uh valve stem got a nut. So oh yeah there's your problem, not fixing that one. I guess you got ta go find another one go! Look in the stack see we can find.

We need a uh two and a half by ten, where they're close close within two inches and what we got. That's a ten! Isn't it four by ten, can we squish that down in there? You could try right yeah. If you don't find anything else, we'll go with that, one see something possibly: oh, it's got a tube in it or not. What's that no tube a 10 inch tire yeah 350 by 10., one two: three.

I think we might want to pump this one up. A little bit and see if she holds there for a minute or two, it's kind of questionable, especially that one right there she's looking a little scabby, say better than the other one. It's more like a small car tire. Let's give her a little see if we get bubbly happening, let that sit and uh see if it goes down in size.
We can get that tire off the rest of that rim. Oh just make sure there's no protruding hunks of rust or anything like that. So go check out our band. It just protects the spokes from poking through stabbing the tube just kind of give them a quick squeeze to see.

If i see anything loose i'll give them a little a little suck down. I think we're fine how's our tube doing. I think that might be okay, too yeah they're close in size should fit no problem, got ta, make a slight adjustment, because that valve stem and that bow stem are two different thicknesses that won't go through the hole. Will now hey? What's your over under you think i pinched it.

I will definitely tell you putting a small tire on a rim compared to a large one is much more difficult. I'm going to give myself an 80 success rate, don't hear any hissing, let's go a little more! You might have gotten it well, judging the fact that water came out the other side, i'm not going to give it too much of a success rate, but let's get that um master cylinder off of there and you can get the cover open, just see what we Got to work with maybe a little bit easier to film in the vise. Let's get the line out of the way. First, judging by the fact that water came out, i'm not going to give it much hope.

Just never know. Let's actually just have a little plunger like a uh. I think something that looks like it. It's a a dish, a rubber dish and we'll go with that use only dot.

Four, don't think water is dark, dark top four, so that's a little diaphragm. I think it's supposed to take up the space, the airspace, but it is looking like yeah, maybe a little bit of that might be brake fluid. So that should be the reservoir, and this part of it is where that is that the plunger should be in here, because that's where let's go give her a couple of let's see what it does yeah it's not even it's stuck so there's that little rubber dish. It should be about right here, there's a spring behind it and you hit the brakes.

You compress that pushes fluid up through the line when you let it back down again. There's a little hole from the reservoir back in here allows the chamber to fill back up while that's compressed down. It is stuck in place. It's had not even returning, so this is already shot.

Let's get rid of this there's, probably a c clip or something, and it's a little. If you see a little c-clip down there, try getting that out of there that should allow all the assembly to come back out. It might be a little on the tight side. I got my pliers backwards.

We need to squeeze together some pliers either you get two different sets, or they got two different sets of screws. It allows it to be in any or an audi clips up now should be able to lift that assembly out of there and down in that rust pile. It should be that plunger and it's not looking very good. We might be able to get it with uh.
Maybe we can shoot, get some compressed air. We might be able to push it with. Let me go get like a actually try with an allen. Thank you, wrench much.

Let me back you up. Well we're gon na have to backtrack through with that rust. Let's go. Give her a little bit of a bit of juice.

I got a punch that is roughly in diameter now there'll be a metal cap that supports that rubber disc, so we're kind of going to be tapping against a a metal cap. I'm going to try to do what we don't just in case. It decides to go there. It goes.

This is a little different same idea, a little different though. So that's what it's got. There's that little dish i was talking about, but this one's on a post. It has looks like one on each side actually makes sense.

I was kind of thinking of like a wheel cylinder because you wouldn't want the fluid to come out where the rod is neither so i think we can clean this up. The problem is usually like on a wheel, cylinder or a master cylinder. You have a little honing tool that gets down inside there. We're not going to be able to do that, because i have nothing that tiny.

I mean we get like a little bottle brush or something in there, but you definitely want to break up those little ports of rust and give it a shot anyway. Anyway, i think these are for a shotgun barrel that might do it. Let's hook that up in a drill and we'll spray, some oil on that to get it cleaned up, brake fluid, actually finger over the end tricky bit right now probably want to do too much. I don't, i think the body of this is aluminum, so it's going to scratch it pretty easy.

I flipped it over. That's the reservoir side, i'm going to go clean that up a little bit too, while we're here just do the same thing and put it back to this. Here we go. I do see a bunch of chomps out of the rubber on that side, but the the outer lip.

This is where it's doing all the work right there. I don't see any tears across that and this one just does the opposite. I took a wire wheel. I took this onto where i didn't take them off, because i would have damaged them, but i quickly just kind of cleaned up any rust that was on that, so that should be able to feed down inside there and when it goes in should bounce back.

For us, hopefully, that's more like it, some of that all right, so i'm going to reassemble those pieces back in there on that rod. I'll probably take the same. Do the same thing with the wire wheel, i'll clean the crap off of that the boots done and it's not going to keep much weather out of it, but uh we'll work. What we got right so that's got it we'll put what's left of the rubber boot back down, can't hurt right and we should get some squishies good.
Let's go put. The reservoir back together put some fluid in it and we can put the line on and i'll blow that out with air. First we'll put the line on and i guess we'll cut our fingers over the other end to uh see if we get any pressure. Yeah see if we get anything should see that level drop down and i'm not probably should have blew out that air passage so there's a little window back there and i see bubbles going into it kind of trying to bleed it by hand it's dropping down.

It's all going somewhere because it has to fill up this chamber and then that chamber squeezes it up into here to making the right noises got. Ta fill it back up again, all right there we go yeah pressure good, let's rinse, that through a little bit, there's where you go wrong when you suck air kind of like on a car too, you want to go too flow too low with you suck air Back in because then you have to start all over again. Let's go. Do that see all right.

Can i get the air out of it all right, so i'm going to go put that top piece back on it again i'll. Let that be i'm going to go. Put this toppings together: let's go look at the caliper that goes on the wheel, and so this side, on the other hand, has a little piston or cup, which is that piece that you see right there and as the fluid enters into this, this space grows with Fluid and it pushes the piston out and then you can bleed it through there. So i'm willing to bet that's probably pretty stuck.

Let's get this. We should be able to get this slide this right off there. We go i'm going to wash this up a little bit and we'll take the bleeder actually we'll leave the bleeder in and possibly we can shoot air inside, and sometimes you get that that go pop. The cylinder out too and that'll have the same thing that there'll probably be a seal on this body right here around the same idea, and hopefully this cup is not all rusted up and that will tear the that seal up, but we'll find out.

This is good to pop out with air. I'm gon na go put something to try to stop its travel a little bit see if it'll work there it goes. It was stuck though, and you can see the crud that's on it, so we can go clean. That off as long as that barrel doesn't look too bad should be fairly polished.

One side looks pretty good, though generally the crud will be on the outside of the lip right there. So let me just go work a little bit of that off of there, so it doesn't scratch it, but as long as you can get that cleaned up should be all right, pretty good. It's got some pitting on it right there, but it's not like we're going on the interstate with it, we'll just smack into a tree. When the brakes fail, i'm going to throw a little bit of brake fluid in there and put my finger over the uh there.
We go that's mostly for lube. She could just go in by hand should it doesn't want to we're going to squeeze it in. You got to watch it. You don't get it racked too sometimes you're putting an it's going in on an angle.

I'm gon na go. Take a little bit more time and clean up that edge right there. I think that's what's holding this up, i should squirt should be happy there. We are like, and if we hook that line back up and squeeze that that should go back together for us now.

We're missing pads, i am hoping that the ones in the front will fit on the rear. If not oh well, see we got nothing with that socket that has dual little pistons on it, so they are not going to be the same. So we know all we got ta do is order brake pads for the front not for the back. Rather, you should probably order some for the front too.

Look at how far the pistons are out kind of giving it a tell how much uh material's been used up all right. We tried. So i did a little google search and just kind of typed in pit bike brake pads and i think, that's kind of what they're supposed to look like. I was like hey what about the front of the other bike? What would they have in them? What they're going to look and somebody stole them out of that one too, there's nothing there, hello, so i guess we'll be waiting on pads to come for that issue.

Six bucks down the drain! Well, it's not like! We don't have any brakes. We might have front brakes tires holding there. That's a good sign. I'm gon na go through all that back together and uh.

When we get pads, it's it's two bolts to pull out and throw the pads and not that big of a deal. The problem is just everything just takes forever to get right now i ordered stuff. It showed up 30 days later when it said it was gon na, be there in three. You know so work what we got, that noises is just rubbing on the plastic tensioner.

Alright look so i'm just gon na go! Leave this assembly off for now, because i'm just gon na be tempted to hit the brake pedal that doesn't exist and then i'll just be squishing it and having fluid go everywhere. So we'll just leave that right off until we get the parts that we want to do next, i guess, since we're doing wheels, let's go get the front one out of the truck anyway, we'll see if the front brakes work and at least bleed them and get Whatever crappy fluid is out and get some new stuff in there, and if not, we may have to use more of the same as far as freeing stuff up. Let's go find out. They got tied down differently too.

We get. What is it running into the lift? The front rotor bent put the front wrong. I don't think so. It's two bolts, let's go to where it's free, hit the brakes and hitting the brakes.

No wrong lever hold on false alarm all right front brakes work, but it's hitting something. Let's go find out what we're hitting and fix it. So what do you think that is? I know what it is. One bolt had a lock washer on and one did not - and i bet you they were the other way around.
The bolt is in a little further and the bolt is touching on the tooth right there i get them out of there and see if i can uh yeah lower one, i didn't see it fall out. Maybe i did maybe i lost one all right. Let me go get that bolt out of there put a lock washer on it. That should take care of that one of the two different lengths.

Let's go get take one out so that one's not it that one's it. So i lost the lock washer. For that be my guest, i don't seem to remember doing that before that works. Yeah, let's hit the brakes all right.

We got front it's good enough for now. Let's go see: what's in this little master cylinder, it should be like a rubber boot or seal on top, and hopefully it's nice and clean. We could just run some fluid through it purge all the crap out of it. That's not a good time.

Let's go get a little chisel or something and give it a little tappy tap see if that round punch will work for us. What's it catching on the lip there you go not much of anything in it. I'm surprised that it works, but there must be just enough fluid in it. Yeah that's just bone dry, so there must be just enough fluid in it to work the caliper in the front good thing we looked in there right and we're gon na go open.

The bleeder on the bottom and try to make it go pee through and hopefully it'll crack loose yeah. I guess all right: let's go pump up some pressure, so you should go. I wouldn't exactly say that was full of it actually kind of looks like water too. Didn't it good thing, i got the bucket under it.

I think that's water good thing, we're purging that the other problem too, is this. Wasn't going back all the way? Yeah! That's water, all right! Well, i'm gon na keep going until we get some nice fresh. I'm gon na fill it back up again, nice fresh fluid through there there i am. This is not coming out with like a bunch of crap on it.

You know so i'm gon na go finish bleeding that up a couple more times, we'll i'll purge out that cylinder i'll fill that up maybe three times and i'll run that through anything, that's in the lines as far as water hopefully be out, i'm guessing that's water. It just just kind of moves around like it. Doesn't it going to taste it you first yeah. So if you can see it, the handlebar on the left is definitely bent up quite a bit more than on the right.

So the little hike took a slight tumble and what he did it looks like he broke the bottom half of that right out of there and that's why they, you went with this to try to hold it together. I would definitely say that was a fairly ingenious of them, but let's try to get something. I don't think i have a mount, but what we could probably do is do like a nut and a bolt or try to find a bolt. That's around that diameter.
Usually, there's a they're, a shoulder bolt like that hole will be larger than the threaded hole. So let's see we can come up with for that. So that's a good shoulder bolt and something like that where it's got the two different sizes on it. Maybe you can find something a little shorter doing this.

In my mind, i picture a set of those brake shoes somewhere in the package. I said: what am i going to go? Do with these. I think i stashed them somewhere. That might be more along the lines.

Huh, let's go try that, and this is gon na be standard thread, not metric, so we're gon na have to make it actually there's no, not on the bottom anyway right it doesn't matter. I wonder if i'm envisioning, these no they're not gon na. Does it work in there? Okay, barely it doesn't go all the way through. Is there a bushing in there or something maybe just beat up on the bottom right? So let's try to get that work for us.

You do that. How much play is up top yeah. It's got quite a bit, i wouldn't mind if we find something that's snug on there and then we just drill that out to whatever the other side is. Let me go look a little bit more, so the next one up drops right in takes care of all that play.

I don't have anyone shorter than that. Will that thread go into there? I actually wonder if i could tap you know what i'll do is i'll thread that i'll thread that into there and i'll, still put a nut on the bottom of it. It will make the the pivot part. Instead of that, i think that was supposed to be the pivot, we'll make this spin inside there, but we're going to have to go shim that up to about right there.

So i'm going to try to find some washers or something to take up that gap. A little bit nothing's too good for my builds, you got brass and then this is a jam nut. So as you go to tighten that up, it's going to lock up on the threads and not want to back off. So, let's go through all that together see how it works.

I think you're gon na have enough yeah that protrudes a little bit and that's gon na run up to there. Let's go see how much play it has because this will be bolted solid to that. Maybe a little bit of play won't hurt, it'll be whatever that is, and on that note i might have to drill it up just to see if we can thread it right in. I wouldn't mind that you know we'll give it better yeah.

I think that worked we'll still put the nut on the bottom to help support it, but see how much play it is when it bottoms out. We got to go for something a little more yeah, maybe one more washer huh, maybe we'll try to get like a um. A lock washer have a little bit of spring to it and we can adjust the gap at least now it's threaded yeah a little bit more, not hokey. One bit looks like it's got it though it's pretty stable, so it's threaded into there there's clearance up there and then this is like a jam nut against here.

So it's a little bit of a adjustment on it. Let's see how that works out for us and the nut actually kind of rests against where it broke off. So as you pull on it, it's not trying to tweak on the whole thing. It's hitting the body down here that ain't hackery, i don't know what is let's see.
Next, we get that handlebar try to bend back into some kind of something. Let's see get the grip off a lot of times. You shoot air in one side pop it out. The other depends sometimes the handlebars have holes in when they run cables.

Now yeah. Let me fall off the bench there we go. Let me go grab a piece of pipe either put in or over that i'll put some straps on it and give her a little tweak got a uh jack hand. Let's see if that'll go over it.

That's really good. Your job is to tell me when it's straight all right think, stop a little more rather undershoot it than overshoot it how's your eyeballs. I got ta go with the angle of the bike, yet too uh, just a little bit more yeah, probably just hop up there and feel how it is all right looks again the bike's leaning on an angle. So i think that can't get you back far enough.

Does it look like that one has to go like that, a little a little huh close, i can sit on both hands and see how it does that's. Also kind of screwing me up as the fender is all kitty wompus in the front. So you can't look down at the front wheel, use that for judgment. I think that thing's all goobered up right, i don't that's the way the brake line went how it's supposed to go and over time we just kind of pushed on the fender.

I'm looking at right there why it's like that! Okay, it needs a little bit of that over the front wheels they can. It can kind of rotate inside these clamps here and and give a little bit of a a tweak to how you're looking down the front tire, how how it lines up and see your wreck again. I think we'll leave it like that for now. If i finally want to tweak it a little bit more, we will i don't want to overshoot it yeah.

It's not really, it's not on it very hard. You know. Maybe it's just was the way it was stored. If you see a clip, if you can see it right down there we're supposed to be kind of grabbed by let's see if we can go put that back in and at least crunch it down, maybe will vice grips if it's got any any life left to It that'll help you could we can steer it.

You know, i wonder if it's supposed to be like that, because there's space right there, i don't know, throw a tie, wrap or something on it to hold it out of the way. Maybe we'll put a little bit of heat, put a little bit of heat on see if that'll come out of it. Let's see if he is our friend, let's go, give her give her everything she's got. I think we got a high speed too.

Don't we there? We go. Do i think i'm just going to hold that kind of in that position and let it cool off see how it does almost stay in there right now as it is, but when it cools off it's going to want to roll that looks better. More of a straight line, i think that stuff kind of has a memory to heat it up. It wants to go back to, however, it was injected molded back into its shape, so we got left to do the plastic gas tank sheet and, i guess plastic rear fan.
I think that was pretty busted up too. Wasn't it and i'll throw find a couple of screws if they're not broken off yeah, throw a couple screws inside the heat shield. Keep that wagging its tongue. Think that's we're getting pretty close.

I guess! Oh, we could do something with the muffler too. So what that's? What we'll do i'll get those bolts in there we'll set the seat and the rear plastic on we'll see that, where that lines up we're supposed to ride, see if we can find some kind of junk muffler or something that we can weld onto the end of That here's that assembly that goes on there looks like actually no looks like it just kind of clips over it, so we're missing one on the other side, all together, it's not even there that cover and the back looks like it's missing. Two screws missing one here. I'm gon na try to find some - i don't know, maybe like a sheetrock screw or a sheet metal screw.

Rather that'll dig down into side. There get a couple of them on there just to help, support that stuff and lay it on and the seat. Oh boy, is that other one the same seat, i don't want to steal any parts from it, but what's your thoughts? Do that look like the same diameter huh? Is that almost the hole actually the whole thing you don't wan na you wan na just take that whole kind of the same deal right i mean we'll. Do that don't take the muffler or anything but we'll take.

I didn't really want to rob from that one. I don't know duct tape, that's a lot of duct tape. What do you think for screws? I'm thinking like that. I'd like a little bit longer, though, because that's going in a catch break a thread or two we have those in a longer.

These are all from a yard, sale stash, of course, i'll hunt around and they're all. Looking like sure these those looks like that might be too long, though, be stabbing you in the ass, when you're trying to hurt trying to ride. I think i might have found a winner, but there's not many of them. Do we only need three, hopefully that's, not even the same size.

That was a little shorter two and a half. I say we go for one of the long ones up here. Go for short and long in the back put the long one in first to hold it. That's where i'm afraid if it's going to stab me 70, yes, yeah! That's the problem too short! I'm not going to do anything go see if no they didn't come through.

I don't know about pretty busted up off of there anyway huh. No, this whole assembly is kind of ratty just set that gas tank on there. Let's see what looks like, why is that flapping? Did i miss another one? Oh, no, that's the one that has the latch. We could probably run a screw through that, though, that seems kind of what holds in place the frame, maybe yeah.
That kind of sucks, though, doesn't it you see yeah, that's kind of crappy we're gon na go, throw a screw in there. Let's go hunting for a muffler of some sort, see if i have anything that is round in tubular that will fit in that space. Looks like it's sitting. Let's go! Look on the other bike.

How the how the muffler goes like you would think like. That would be more centered here. Can we bend it? Is it just sitting there yeah it's just sitting there all right, let's go see if we can find some kind of muffler, let's see how that one goes in. Is it offset? No, it's right in the middle of it all right.

These are gon na, be all too big. I need something like off a moped or something i'm gon na go with them nope. I think those are like valkyrie or something i had a couple. There might be upstairs in this stash.

I thought i had a couple of little teeny. What's that wait, wait ouch yeah! That's all! I was thinking of that wait. We got more. There's a hundred pounds.

We're gon na lay on all this that i'm gon na say no to that one that might be a tad two-piece shooter-ish. That's just a tail pipe! Yes, just tail pipe, and i think this is probably moped and it's gon na be two more we'll grab that i think that's probably gon na be our best bet. Yeah we'll see if that gets anywhere close to what we need and see, if you're, even in the right window. So we do what i cut that probably right about there.

It's gon na be a tad long and we could probably do i wonder if we clean that up. If that'll we can kind of slip into that a little bit, because if you flip it, the very first thing you're going to hit is the muffler right yeah. Let's try that so we'll cut that off. Actually we can cut some of the tip off too right i'll grind that back and i'm sure there's going to be a tad bit of a difference between the size.

Two sizes see right through that puppy. I'm about to look at those japanese cars. I forgot what they call. Those things got the big lips sticking out of the front in the back.

They got the exhaust shooting straight up out of the side of the car unless we hack yeah, it's kind of tiny too, though huh we'll go with that one. We're gon na go check upstairs real, quick before we commit to that one. Maybe we could find something. That's more than keeping.

I think this is all honda 70 stuff. He has no muffler in there i'll bring it back. If i find anything how about a beetle tail pipe, i have one of them. I might do it.

I don't want to ruin that set for screwing around with that, though i don't see one, i cut the end off and there's the old weld left over now. It's got a lot of a lot of play, so i think i'm just gon na go grind that weld enough, so where i can get this to slip over a little bit and we'll use that for uh our welding point. Let's go set that back on there and roughly that's gon na, be there huh you go throw a pipe on that we'll kind of bend that up, because that's just going to burn right there right throw a piece of pipe on there. We'll give you a little bit of a yeaf up a little higher try to get it to at least be in this pocket somewhere and then uh we'll have to make a bracket to support him.
It will come off of that right. There okay see when rips right out of the head and breaks the studs off, which i'm afraid of good that do anything a little bit of heat, probably wouldn't hurt huh i just got ta come in, that's better, it's more in the middle of it. Anyway. All right, what we can do is when we get it welded on we'll we'll weld the tab on.

We can kind of draw that in just a little bit more because it's going to be against that. Actually, that's not even in its place. I don't want to screw in that. I don't like that flopping around, like that.

I cleaned up the edge on that ground it down, so that we can get a little bit of a snug fit. That should be pretty good. Let's see right about there, we'll throw a tack on it. If we need to tweak its position a little, it should be good right.

There they'll throw attack on. If you need to kind of move it around a little bit. I will lay the cover on then we'll make a bracket from there to there just kind of helps to support this whole thing. It's not out there like a diving board iron hole.

You have to support it. I'm gon na wiggle her around a little bit. It's already smoking yeah, i see we're gon na have to go come right about. I know, there's where we need to be even in that front looks like it's gon na be right on it.

Maybe it's about the best we're gon na get. So i think we can weld it up. It's all flexing the pipe right, yeah i'll i'll, give it a little tweak in the upward inward position. Put another attack on the other side and the rest will just grab with the bracket.

What if that seat can kind of looks like it should roll a little bit that way? Doesn't it? I think it's just so messed up party time all right, so i think maybe a fender washer or something we can go and bolt through here and we'll kind of ground, the bottom of the washer off or something along there. I want to get it right about. There should do us anything if we cut the bottom of that off on an angle. Give us about three quarters of an inch to weld to as long as this doesn't interfere with anything that would just beat it with a hammer, just knock that edge over.

Let's get a bolt in it actually, instead of cutting when we just bend it over it'll give us more area to weld to being a flat surface. You know: okay, we can lay that on the muffler. Now, let's get a bolt set up before we do that, though, i say something like that: let's try to get it right about there get attack on it. The mop is going to be real thin, so the hull, all right, i'm gon na buzz that up and take my time, because this is super thin right here and crappy and rusty.
So i feel it i think so kind of one of those things. The more you mess with it. Sometimes it works, you make it. Let's go beat the top of that with a hammer over a little bit, something like that fixed.

You had a horrible view of that. Didn't you sorry, just buttoning up all the hardware for the gas tank and the covers and all there's still two screws back here that need to be done. Oh, look. It's got no heat shield on this side, i'm just looking it's uh cooked in there.

Hopefully, that's not old skin burnt in there. I don't know if i'm going to deal with anything for that for now i'll wait till i burn myself and then i'll deal with it all right. What's we got, i got too much screws to put in the back. The seat fuel line and air cleaners looking at air cleaners, what was in the pile, i thought we were going to be all set, i'm sure when i saw that one went on that one, that's a tad bit of an issue.

That's when i think that was on there and that's got a tad bit of an issue, and then it was this one that was sticking in there too. I was like well i'll just throw that on there because it was in the box and it must go with it right, but that's about yo much too much. Can we take well the guts of that one. That's still too sloppy.

Nice. Try, though, come up with something like i said, i still have those uh two screws to put in there kick that over here, but the space seems pretty good all the way around it. It's got at least at least a half inch that melts it melts more stash hunting. I was hoping to find a filter that would fit.

I did not find that, but i did find a box of a box of rubbers. I wonder if we can cut that off if that's enough to take up the gap between the the two of them yeah. Well, here's! Maybe that too, we'll take that with us. Anymore looks like there's a bunch of these.

What's that nope keep all the stuff in your memory for the future, we're working on something else, you see remember up there. Those would work pretty good. All right, we'll take that in that see, if we can work with it, i actually cut the that first ring. That's had that little thin, shoulder on it and that's the one i was going to use, but after putting it on the carburetor seems like because it expands.

I think that'll be the one that we go with we'll find a hostname for that one, we'll we'll call that a win. I think once at a point we just run a little piece of fuel line from that stub, where it's missing. Where is it somewhere? There's a stubby on there, it's got to go out and then down to the curb heater fire it up. It's got gas in it, whether it's on or not that pet doesn't look like it fits on there very well.

Does it hold on fighting with my glasses, like this, should be cut away or tuck it behind it all right? Now it's on reserve right, yeah! No, so off can run. Does that be reserved, it only has a little in it, so we should see fuel coming out of there. I don't see any fuel there to you. Oh, i can make a mess, it's probably clear, and it's going to run all over the place yep.
What are you doing? Let me run for a second, let it run all right. That's where we got to point upward. I know there's no hose clamps on there all right upward. I think it's filling it up, like some gas in here to you, i'm gon na go with that and you're gon na go blow some of that excess off of there.

So all right, let's give her a couple kicks here. She does. I do not know which way choke is i'm gon na go with that being off, so it does off. First, i hear how it sounds too.

This kickstarter sucks. So, okay, that's just the idle speed. The air fuel mix needs to be adjusted. That's why it's hunting all over better run a minute.

I got it over filled with oil. I don't have that breather hose on it, see what it does. That's about right, big fight goes. Maybe a little lower doesn't sound any quieter.

How low we go. Think kill, switch works. No oh yeah awesome yeah! I got too much oil in it. But again we if you watched the first video, the dipstick, was broken off, so we weren't quite sure where it was.

I kind of went on the favor, the fuller, the lesser side and there's a supposed to be a breather hose on there right. There needs a piece of hose added to it that directs it to piss down good. What do we need helmet? We need duct tape. That's what we need for the seat for now and what kind of self-respecting shop all that crap of tape up there doesn't have any black duct tape.

That's sandpaper or non-skid. Yeah that'd be good for the seat. I got nothing before we ride it. I don't know what kind of shape the fork seals are in, judging by the fact that the cap on that one's lifting up right.

So we just kind of knock off some of that rust because that's what's going to travel over that now, if the seal's not bad, it will be after that, so make your own jokes! I'm actually going to come back with a wire wheel and kind of knock. It down a little bit more, it's looking pretty rough. I don't know how much it travels. It probably travels, probably to about right there anyway, so we'll take care of that lube.

It's your friend just avoid the warranty. Ah, smooth it's been about an hour hour and a half too after we needed that fender looks like it's holding up pretty good, i'm not rolling back. If anything, it's a little back. The other way and five short days later, we've got brake pads, whether they fit or not.

There's another add-on these, oh no. Actually, that would be the longer one. Wouldn't it that would be that one would go up there and we got ta slide it apart. A little one, a little boat.
How did that? Go we'll figure it out. I think we got the right deal, though yeah we'll get it well, it's close to fitting. It gives the general shape she's a tad she's, a tad fat and we'll hit her on the grinder, so you can get her knocked down to fit inside there. That's where it's supposed to sit nothing's too good for my ride.

We go with the fresh duct tape. Perfect yeah upholstery is one of my other specialties. Call me if you need a quote. I am booked up for a while perfect come on even left the badging.

Thank you so so rip the trail down you're running out of gas. That's a fun little ride. Actually, screws along pretty good, i'm surprised handles my weight fairly decent. I thought i was gon na be constantly bottoming out, but i've screwed along really good.

It's almost out of gas. That's why it's starting to cut out! I didn't put much in it and it's on reserve and it's pushed out whatever left of that oil that i overfilled out of the overflow it'll, find its high it'll part its own level, all right guys with that, the greater for six bucks, we'll call it a Win for there uh i'll, probably chase the seat down. I just wanted to make sure she was good before i did that major investment of 40 bucks. You know i took the hard one first, because that's always the way.

It goes that if you, you start with the easy one, you'll never get the hard one, the harder one to fix done. That's why i wouldn't chase this one. First, all right guys with that. I'm gon na go put some more gas and go putter around a little bit a little bit more fun, but i think we're gon na do a call for the win on this one.

Thank you all for hanging out with me have a little bit of wrenching fun and we'll do it again soon, sometime till then later, oh there you go you're the gear, so so so out of control, oh you're, next, my little friend, i think he got off Easy so before you had choppers you had bobbers and before you had bobbers, you had cut downs and there's some custom bikes of the era. So this is a cut down. It's got a lowered frame similar to that type of bike over. There makes it real lightweight low to the ground, nice and nimble, but this bike was built by lynn andres.

He was, i don't know if, at this point in his life, he was but later in life. He was the modesto california harley-davidson dealer, and he built this bike for the 1935 gypsy tour, which was a like a bike rally from back in the day and so what he did is he wanted a lightweight little cruiser to run around this thing at and he Didn't want to have a v-twin for whatever reason, so he made himself a 500cc single one thing: they don't tell you about harley's. Is they actually make really good single cylinder motorcycles? Basically, a harley's just a two cylinder radial, so blanking off the back cylinder on these things, not so hard to do so. This was a two cam 1924.
I think yep. So this was a two-cam harley-davidson, 1000 ccv twin, that he's blanked off the back cylinder for and made into a single cylinder, 500cc lightweight little cruiser, let's see if it wants to fire up today. So what i'm going to do to start this thing, choke it gas is on i'm going to give it three kicks to prime now, i'm going to take the choke off we'll do our ignition on set our timing and give it a kick. Maybe two little custom bike cruiser for back in the day, pretty cool little bike to put together.

So a lot of people ask us which year this bike is and i'd probably ask you which part yeah, but he built a heck of a cool custom back in the mid 30s out of all these sort of 20s parts right here. But if y'all have any questions about this bike, any other bike being here, please let us know:.

    OMG! I dig the way you cheap out on things but watching you make a larger hole in that rim to make way for an old questionable inner tube had me wondering about your sanity.

    I find that a squirt of windex or other spray cleaner will get sucked up under the handle bar grip by capillary action and free it up. it is amazing how well it works.

    Hey Mustie! I watch all of your videos even though I am a complete mechanical novice. I have learned so much. Thank You for your efforts and instruction. Keep them coming please.

    Awesome rebirth of a pit bike. One suggestion, make a flap out of a piece of rubber or plastic and hang it down between the rear wheel and the shock. It will save the shock seal from dirt being thrown on to it from the rear tire. I also think the front brake line should be in front of the triple clamp not through it. If you look at the line coming out of the master it looks really bent.

    Had a buddy tell me you can't ride those pit bikes without giggling, this video is proof of that statement lol

    It's not a very good idea having backbrakes over the frontbrakes.
    In motocross and enduro you use the frontbrakes much more then the backbrakes. I believe the frontbrakes take 80-90% of the force stopping the bike, the back tire only slips on the dirt. Without a frontbrake your smoked, it's incredible important but can without bigger problems run without brakes at the back.

    No wonder you struggle changing tyres, take off at the valve so the tyre can be put in the rim well on the opposite side. Refitting is exactly the reverse, put the bead in the well and lever on toward the valve.

    Skill, technique, experience, a great stash, and a loving wife makes your world one to envy. Throw in the huge following of appreciative fans and what more could a guy want?

    Another great video Darren, I always look forward to a Sunday morning and start it off with Mustie1 first. You do a great job keeping it interesting, informative, and a little humor. Keep up the great work my friend and let's get you to 1 Million subscribers. YOU ROCK
