@johndocbikerestorations831 22 күн бұрын
@sarmentinho Some parts from Dave Silver, others from sellers on eBay, the paint was from an auto supplier, 2k primer and base coat and 2k lacquer. I will do a video breaking down all parts and the costs

@@johndocbikerestorations831 thank you so much! My main concerns are to pick the correct primers, paints and rust treatments to mine. Currently my restoration is halted due to baby taking all the time, but your video felt so good to watch, I enjoyed a lot! 😊

@sarmentinho I hope you get progress with your project, you shoukd be fine if you stick to 2k primer and 2k solid black for the frame. Panels require plastic primer before painting, easily done. Good luck 👍

I have a cb 500 s 02 one also in central Scotland amd it is a fantastic all round bike. Had a K100 LT as I thought I wanted a big touring bike, did not like the weight at all , kept it a year and thank goodness still had the Honda. I use it to commute, tour and day trips and it is all the bike I need , 6 speed box is great and eceonomy is similar to yours. I find if I really want to row it along it goes like stink and mates with more powerful bikes are often surprised and they never look like they are having as much fun as me.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, just found your comment. It is a "Nonfango" system, was fitted to the bike when it was new in 1997, works really well, as you say it's pretty slim so better in traffic than some of the wide systems!

Love your streams . I have an old Hurricane to restore. The timing chain needs to be replaced and its running a bit lumpy. I am hoping that once the timing chain has been replaced that it will run much better . Have you any tips re this job???? Thanks 👍👍👍
@johndocbikerestorations831 3 ай бұрын
Thanks. I think it is an easy enough job, there is a youtuber called SeDiLife (I will put a link in a separate comment as KZbin tends to delete links) who goes through the process. Lumpy running is more likely your carbs or ignition system, the cam chain would just be noisy. Good luck with your build, are you documenting it?
