Biggest Mistake Honda Owners Make

[@carlgangl6360]

Thanks for the wild and crazy content! I’m riding a 86 VT1100C. It’s totally stock and I love it that way. I’m 70 years old and bought it 15 years ago from the original owner. My only complaint is the suspension. I replaced the rear shocks and put seals in the front. The back end either bottoms out or is way too stiff. What can I do? You are fucking nuts and it makes me feel young again watching you. Been riding since 1967. Started on a Yamaha YDT1 250 two stroke. Had a couple CB350’s. I’ve got my uncles bike he passed away 10 years ago. A 73 CB750 and I’m still working on It. I have 8 bikes and the 86 is the newest. Sorry for writing a book! Keep your wheels turning!

I now that it's not a Shadow, but don't forget about the VTX 1300...it has a single-pin crank, and it's idle speed is recommended at 900rpm (+/- 100), so it can get pretty close to that po-ta-to cadence without harming the engine.

@@RageUnchained I had an 05 Vtx 1300C that I got from a friend of mine. He bought it with 5k miles on it. Hyper Charger and the Vance and Hines pipes ( which we ended replacing under warranty due to cracks in the pipe on the front cylinder). It ran pretty well after the local dealer got through with it but seemed lacking in power and throttle response as the miles racked up. At 60+k miles I did a full service and rejet to my specs. Throttle response went thru the roof and his mileage saw a 15% increase. When David gave me the bike a few years later he told me he had taken it for a Dyno run after I did my work. Seems my mods made more power than the guys doing Dyno tuning. Loved that bike. 150k+ on it when I sold it.

[@willwillis6184]

Good advice, I just bought an old one and thought it might be idled down to low. Now I know

[@freddempster4085]

Similar for Harley’s, too. Too many riders turn the idle down so much that the oil pumps pressure is too low to move oil around. Plus, when idles are too low, don’t forget the engine needs to get up to enuf power to get going with your buds. The engine speed needed to even let the clutch out needs to get up way over the potato idle. My big twin idle is recommended at 950-1000 rpm from a fully hottened up engine. I will take it for a half hour toot and then adjust my idle as needed to set it.

Dude, that's the best description of the difference between a dual and single pin crank I've seen. 👍 My Fury 1300 and my wife's 2002 Spirit 750 are single pin cranks but Honda is smart enough to balance them. They sound good, but they don't shake-rattle-and... fall the fk apart.

[@sergeantdeath]

[@BrianDoherty-e8s]

The same lack of oil to the "top" [heads at the same elevation as the crank] end happens with the old BMW airheads. There used to be a strange fetish among airhead owners to get the idle as low as possible. Because of the opposed cylinders and a heavy flywheel they would still run pretty smoothly at 800 rpm. At that slow rate, oil pressure was low and the big oil users like bearings used all the pressure before any oil could get to the "top" end or the timing chain. Mysterious valve train and timing chain damage happened. So the low idle problem is more about crank and cam bearings using all the oil rather than, as in the case of the Shadow, the heads being way above the oil pump. [Elevation seems to really make no difference; it's all about oil volume]. Nice video, Hoss!

I’m about to buy a Honda shadow 750 ACE 2001, is the single pin and dual carbs a bad thing?

[@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS]

Not at all. The ace is a dope bike! One carb per cylinder is race shit.

[@its_reckoning6667]

@@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS Thanks for the assurance :) I will buy it next week!

[@markmimervini5794]

Great info I can’t wait to get my 2001 running and chopped, I have gotten your carb kit. Keep up the great work you do.

[@TJBRUTALCUSTOMS]

Thanks man!

[@samuelhan1893]

How'd you make those side covers? Just sheet steel cut roughly to plastic cover and tacs? It's really cool!
