Hello Michael, just came across your videos on the CB77 restoration. Very good work! I got a 1965 Honda CB72 for christmas from a godd friend and it needs also restoring. In this episode I see you soldering thes bullet connectors to the wiring loom. Where did you get them? I only have the crimp on connectors ans serached for the ones you use without finfing them. Best whishes Uli, Ravensburg Germany

I had a friend who had one of these. His dad was a Harley racer in Ohio, and bought it for him at Reiser's Harley Davidson. Originally it was kept in Ohio, but my friend wanted to race where we lived in West Virginia. In West Virginia we do Motocross and hill climb. So, after his old man heard he wanted to race, he brought the bike out, he even put a fiberglass race seat on it. I gotta tell ya, this bike was no motocross bike, but Rodger was determined! The Harley was no match for the Yamaha MX125s, Pentons, Maicos, Rickmans, etc., of 1972. He made is one and a half laps before crashing and giving up. He might have done better on the Baja 100 of the time as it was more suited, but I doubt it. My friend did become a professional racer under the tutelage of his father, even racing in the Grand Nationals. 👍 A nice little bike, but not a market competitor at the time.

Thanks for sharing your insight on this topic Michael- was considering same for my Passport also, but now think I'll just rebuild a CT110 (Trail 90 derivative) and pop it in. Mine was great when I lived at sea level in coastal Monterey, but now in the mountains at 7350 feet elevation, she doesn't quite have the spunk she used to. Yours is an absolutely pristine example- enjoyed the video.

The 1N4001 might not be enough for some motorcycle electricals that could draw more than 1A of continuous current. It is better to use a 6A10 diode with a forward current rating of 6A.

Maybe you can help me out on paint. Do you have the paint code and name of the color of your bike? I am having a REALLY hard time trying to find it. Everyone says "VMR Paints" but VMR has no colors shown or better yet pictures of finished examples associated with their paint codes. Tanks are sold in India with that exact color, but they don't sell the rest of the painted parts for matching. Granted, I would prefer to re-paint my original parts anyways...

Hi. As far as I see after you install the bigger cylinder you got to go with a higher flow exhaust and higher flow bigger carburetor, and also you need bigger valve head with the valve.

I had one. One year-17000km, some trips (tour de Corse/ warmly recommended, Alps). I had bought it cause twin and nice look. But was an iron...weak engine, weak brakes, poor comfort from saddle, approximative handling... I sold it and bought a XT500, he he he he....😎

I de-restricted the exhaust on a day 1990 Honda elite 49cc 2-stroke. Whatever the power I expected to gain - say it was 10% more - I enlarged the main jet hole diameter by the square root of that, assuming that the flow through it was related to the square of the diameter. So for a 10% increase of fuel, I increased the diameter by like 3%. It worked great. That bike was indestructible, well except I broke the rear suspension twice from jumping the scooter. Easy fix and the bike performed for me then my friend for years of abuse.

i installed a 88cc kit on a 2006 crf70 with a racing cam and a bigger carburetor and intake tube and the stock exhaust and the bike ran extremely good , with a lot of more midrange , so my next project installed a another 88cc kit on a 1970 ct70 with a racing cam and the stock carburetor and the bike ran the same or a little worse than the stock 70, i rechecked the cam timming and ok , the only difference in between both engine is the 2006 engine has a bigger carburetor , so i am going to install bigger jets and might raise the needle and if it doesnt make a difference i will try a bigger carburetor

well i rejeted the carb with no luck ,so i installed a 20mm carb with the side intake tube and the bike had maybe a little more tork ,but still has less power than the stock 70 , so i rechecked the timming and ok and i pulled the new header pipe and installed a old header pipe with out the muffler to see if there was any obstruction in the new pipe and bike still ran the same , forgot to mention that when i build this engine i installed new set of points and condensor , and the cyllinder head has a new valve job , so the next step is to pull the head off and check the hi performance cam because it could be ground wrong , unless if someone could come up with a better idea for me to check before i start pulling the head off

well first i removed the 88cc big bore kit and i installed the stock 70cc cylinder back on with the same cylinder head and the same hi performance cam, and the stock carb , the bike ran really good , compared to the stock 70cc engine this engine has a lot more upper midrange and top end power , for whatever reason the bike ran really bad with the big bore kit
