Build a bike from spare parts!

A subscriber mentioned that I have enough spare parts laying around, that I could build a bike from scratch. Well, let’s see if he was right. Fun project for a rainy afternoon. #HondaCT70 #Lifan #IceBear #125cc

[@marioruiz5313]

My wife asked me what important thing I had to do this morning and I answered her... I have to watch a video of my friend Mike assembling a CT70 😆👏👏👏 I really liked it Mike, nice job 👌

[@MiniBikeMike]

Thanks Mario!

Hey my old frame. Glad to see it lives on! Great video

[@MiniBikeMike]

Thanks!

@@MiniBikeMike haha awesome I’ll text you soon to set something up!

[@bartgoins1782]

Very impressive to have that many spares, and the knowledge to do a build from the ground up. Great job!

[@MiniBikeMike]

Thanks. I’ve been hoarding parts and building little Hondas for a very long time.

[@bartgoins1782]

Yeah, I wish I had got into it long ago. Now locally, everyone wants an arm and a leg for the smallest of parts. I may have to take a trip down to California in the spring time for the Pomona Swap Meet.

[@thomaspencak5811]

Absolutely fantastic video Mike. You have an amazingly organized tool and spare parts system there. Let us know what the Ω ohms readings are on all those stators. That can confirm which ones are bad! Then we can know how to check ours if we suspect a bad one. Thanks again for the great videos.

[@gerardkenny8408]

Looks awesome

[@MiniBikeMike]

Thanks!

[@geoffreyjones2000]

Raining in Maryland too, sir

[@MiniBikeMike]

I’m over it, c’mon summer. It’s suppose to rain all day tomorrow also.

[@franciscoolvera6871]

That was fast!!

[@MiniBikeMike]

It goes pretty quick when you don’t take the time to clean up any parts. 😂

[@brianlapointe5304]

Great job mike, yep I knew you could do it. Great little cruiser there. Hey it’s something to cruise around on, I like it. Super build as always.

[@cainbeeping8480]

Good job brother thanks for sharing.

[@dirtcopdualsport]

All i need to do is replace a couple gaskets, a brake pad, and a brake cable and mine will be hunky dory hopefully this video will motivate me off my butt.

[@gibbsterbuilds5320]

Hey Mike! I’m looking for a ct70 tbone and thought I might see if you had any leads bc I’m doing a build right now that I just found I can’t get a tag for😟😭

[@gmyrick56]

Mike, can you make a video on how to repair broken knob bolt in the handlebar or fix it so the handlebar be used? There is no videos on KZbin about it.

[@MiniBikeMike]

Too funny. I actually made that video a couple days ago and was saving it for future posting. Give me a couple days and I’ll post it up.

[@snakepit101]

Hey Mike, thanks for the vids. Can you tell me the purpose of the keyed lock just in front of the ignition switch up by the steering and front shocks? I bought a lifan clone and it has this with a little metal cover that slides over it.

[@MiniBikeMike]

@@snakepit101 It’s a steering lock. With the handle bars in just the correct position, a hole on the steering stem lines up with that keyed lock. Inserting the key and turning it pushes a pin into the hole and prevents handle bars from being turned.

[@snakepit101]

@@MiniBikeMike Thank you!!

[@juliohernandez4033]

Hi Mike, great video as always, where do I get that beautiful seat for my dax?

[@MiniBikeMike]

This seat came from: bartmotoco.com

[@Hodenkat]

I'm sure you've gotten this question a million times, but how much would you sell a bike like this for? I see you have quite a few bikes, so I'm sure you can't keep them all! 🤣

[@MiniBikeMike]

I don’t keep all of them. I collected and stored a few hundred of them since 1992. As I finish a bike, I sell it on this channel. I think I sold this bike for $1100.

[@Hodenkat]

That's wonderful! My brother had one of the first CT70's when I was 8 years old back in 69. Thanks for bringing back all the great memories! @@MiniBikeMike

[@scottmagyar]

[@MiniBikeMike]

Sorry, I don’t sell any parts. Made that mistake once…..it was a part I needed on the next build.

[@sabian356]

I’m trying to buy a Lifan 140cc but some people told me that they don’t fit all Ct70. Does it fit all the frames?

[@MiniBikeMike]

All CT70 frames are the same bolt pattern. Yes, it will fit.
