1980 Honda CB650C Motorcycle Teardown and Build - Part 1

[@flex112261]

I did the same build as you. Same year everything!

[@trevernordlund1652]

How did it turn out??

[@MegaKencam]

I have one that I made into a cafe'. That dip in the frame at the seat is a pain. It's hard to make it look right.

[@trevernordlund1652]

Ya I heard that a few times. I decided to keep it and build around it

[@showmusclegomuscle]

What gas tank is that? And what adjustments did you have to make? I have a 80 and the tank wasn’t one it when I bought the bike. I really like the look of this one over the stock version

Very cool. I am literally doing the same project with the same year and model of bike. I'll give you a sub and follow along. My project will likely be slow moving, but I'm going to be doing nearly everything myself minus a bit of welding and some the tight tolerance engine items. Looking forward to seeing how it goes!

How did it go? Just starting my 80 650c build.

Did you finish the motorcycle exactly as you wanted?

[@godzilla2y]

I notice you didn't include getting the carbs out in the video. Is that because your memory card couldn't store enough video for all the time it takes to get them out between the engine and the airbox?

[@trevernordlund1652]

I had some issues with the camera holding video... so unfortunately that got lost. I can make a video on the best way to pull them off and put them on. Had to do it a few times now 😅

@@trevernordlund1652 I was just poking fun, man. Pulling the carbs out seems to be the worst part of working on these bikes.

I just did it last week and it didn’t seem to take too long..

How's your build going? I recently finished up a 1982 CB650 build: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqfOnp5snsljbaM
