I rode an A-7 to high school in the late 70's. Great bikes. Bullet proof and simple to maintain AS LONG AS the oil system is properly working and you don't premix AND you own JIS screw drivers.

[@petersteen4014]

So true. My '68 Avenger was my most reliable 'companion' for five years. The friend I sold it to promptly seized the engine by running it without 2-stroke oil !

[@user-Borgus]

Craig: When you've got something siezed, try heating the outside as you did. Then, get a can of lighter-filler Butane. It'll freeze and shrink the piston, maybe enough to break it free. My brother had a spark plug siezed in the head of his Chrysler and the Easy Out hadn't worked. There was not much but threads left, and the ceramic was inside the cylinder. We heated the head, then used the butane to shrink what was left of the plug, and it turned out with no problem. I used the method a few times since, and it works. Never used it on a stuck piston, but I will the next time. Good luck! By the way, you and Dan make a great team. Hope your fingers heal soon!

When i was younger (15 to 17)i use to work at a junk yard in P.a and i would take all the motorcycles to the point of having over 150 bikes in my back yard. i use to keep a 55 gallon drum filled half way of diesel and when ever i would get a bike with a frozen engine i would pull the engine and stick in the drum for a week. %90 of the time it would work.

[@johngalt97]

Diesel and white gas/kerosene are great for cleaning chains, too. After soaking/agitating the chain until clean, I spray chain lube between the links (non o-ring) and put it in the sun or a warm oven to let the lube wick in. O-ring chains rob at least 1 HP, and aren't as cost effective as simply replacing conventional type when they wear.

BUT of all the things that you do on this station is smash fingers, walk into cabinets, drop hammers you your feet, and my all time favorite is the 2x4 with the 5 pound sledge.

I came home from college the summer of 79 to work. Ended up buying a basket case '68 A7-SS, the Kawasaki 350 Avenger SS. Ended up being a lot of evenings, even with a good manual. Needed new clutch springs, managed to get them barely adjusted to just shift & kick over (slipped some both ways!). Really screamed, dug trenches with the front wheel off the ground, in 2nd & 3rd gear, even with the clutch slipping bad... Buddy offered to store it for the winter while I was back to school... Ended up being missing the next spring... Sure wish I still had that one!

[@mightybeanstick9872]

Watching you beat the bejeebus out of those pistons, couldn't help but think of the Classic Octane video where he was doing the same thing to a seized Triumph (?) engine - punched a hole right through the piston crown. I don't think he was too bothered as he had a replacement engine, I think. Love the humour in your videos. Craig and Dan are the new Abbot and Costello :).

[@chillywilly3397]

[@erik_dk842]

They deliberately don't ask for, nor take advice from anyone about anything they "work" on.

[@rickyfoofighter4926]

This happened to me on a twin 2 stroke once. What really helps is lifting the front wheel as much as you can so the penetrating fluid is distributed evenly across the front and back of the piston. What might have been happening with the Kawasaki is the penetrating fluid gathers towards the front, but the seizure might have been towards the rear of the piston. Hope this tip helps 😊

I had an R5 (predecessor to the RD350) with frozen pistons similar to this Triumph. one was extra stuck, and it took my brother and I about 1/2 hour of solid hammering to free it. the piston came out in one piece but was completely mushroomed on the top. our arms were sore the next day.

I know by the time you see this you will already have the stuck pistons fixed but what I used to do was take the head off and I made a plate that I could run a bolt through and press the piston down that way. It's a constant pressure and a slow steady.

FYI, your Vessel screwdriver isn’t JIS, it’s ISO 8764-1/DIN 5260, which is designed to fit both Phillips and JIS. JIS B 4633 is what you’re looking for, and the only one I’ve found is Sunflag. I went down this rabbit hole when my Vessel screwdrivers were still stripping screw heads and I wanted to know why.

[@vaibhavdlv]

My new scooter has JIS screws on air cleaner box. It had me confounded for few days when my trusty screwdriver just would not work and started to strip the screws. Thankfully something made me stop and google about this. Turned out I needed another set of screwdrivers. Got that and things worked like a charm!

[@jamsstar2010]

The weird thing is I got 99pence screwdriver from b&q and it fits everything No idea why ? 😂

[@Jeekinz]

You dont need special screwdrivers, just use one from the bikes factory tool kit, its JIS and fits those case cover screws perfectly.

[@TheRealSquirre1]

JIS B 4633 is a defunct standard, there isn't a JIS screw at this point since it was superseded by ISO 8764 so no new drivers are actually JIS, ISO 8764 was heavily influenced by the JIS standard which is reflected in how it's almost the same specification. That's why companies like Vessel and Sunflag don't claim to make JIS anymore and instead just list "Fits JIS". Also for what it's worth, Vessel was involved with the origin of the JIS screw and were the first manufacturer of JIS drivers.

[@evi1dav3]

I saw the title and thought "Yes! A Kawasaki rotary valve!" I currently own an F7 which isn't running and a KE100 which runs and rides. Small but reliable! Cool bike, Craig!

@Chocolate_dragon mine is a 95 too. Bought it as a "mostly there" project with a title. I had previously bought a basket case that there was no way to complete so it worked out. Sorry you had to sell yours. Plenty of them are still out there if you ever want to get another one.

[@vintubeable]

Thanks for the video.... Quite inspiring... Its an amazing coincidence. My motorcycle was sitting outside for 5 years in all weather conditions. I think the moisture got in through the ports and rust caught up the cylinder wall and seized the piston. I am also going through the same ordeal.... Piston seizure with my Yamaha 2 stroke. I tried pouring different concotions from diesel oil, 2T engine oil, castor oil, coconut oil, vinegar to large amounts of WD-40, which I am still spraying. Only, I have'nt tried the blow torch as it could flame up due to the concotions sitting inside. I am still trying with a wooden block and mallet. I'm hoping to see the piston move without breaking it. Looking forward to your sequel. Good Luck ! 👍😊

The tank with that cool emblem is the focal point and it's in really good condition. Usually bikes that old are missing at least one emblem and knee pad. Kawasaki should go retro and start using the old emblems on their new bikes... I'm 62 years old and I still remember a lot of the older bikes, but I don't remember ever seeing one of those, not even in a magazine. It's funny that Kawasaki used the name Samurai way back then, and years later Suzuki used it for those little cracker box car things that they made.
