Kawasaki to me baby...

[@shaunhardie6077]

One of the best, if not THE best "Motorcycle Rewind" video to date, absolutely brilliant that you managed to get so many of those bikes to run. Well done, now go and have a well earned rest Eric, 👍😎.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much. That’s high praise. This one was loads of fun.

[@nickq204]

If a two-stroke engine makes noise and two-stroke fumes, that’s a runner. I’ll count ‘em all! Four stroke rules are a little more complicated. Love this lot of bikes, numerous vintage dirt bikes, and I especially like the TS100.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for the clarification. This is a really cool group of motorcycles.

[@timothyolson6350]

Love seeing these bikes from my earlier years.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Awesome. Thanks for watching.

[@gailbrown1390]

brilliant no bull down to earth motorcycle channel

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for watching. This was a lot of fun minus all the kicking, the heat and the little fire!🔥 🤣😂🤣

[@yomommaahotoo264]

That 250 is THE find.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Such a cool motorcycle. Can’t wait to get it going.

[@marchettejw]

I just barely picked up a 78 ct90 myself about 2 weeks ago here in Utah. It had been sitting essentially dormant in my neighbors backyard shed since 2005. A bit of fuel system cleaning and a new battery it fired up. Then a whole lot of lubricant and some new tires. Now it’s back on the road registered and insured. I’ve already been stopped twice by officers thinking I’m on an unlocked electric bike. Ha the surprise on their faces when they come up to it and see that it’s a little motorcycle.

[@motorcyclerewind]

That may be my favorite of this bunch. So much fun to ride. Thanks for watching. Good on you for bringing yours back to life.

[@seanlukedado2772]

I just tuned in and first thing i see is this suzuki TS 100, my first motorcycle when i was 12 years old! I'm 55 now and still riding. Man, that sound when you were kick starting it brings back great memories...

[@motorcyclerewind]

Awesome. The connections we have with these motorcycles is so great. Thanks for watching.

[@michaelbarbera4923]

I would definitely consider that Suzuki a runner. Seems like it may have been flooded..? Great work on Great bikes brother!

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much. This was loads of fun. Thanks for watching.

[@timothyellis6266]

I enjoy your videos so much I've been back watching past videos!

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much!!!

[@mikeplummer8904]

A lot of work, but it paid off. What a fun time.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much for watching. I had a good time.

[@ralphtaylor3796]

eric, what are ya selling them for. they would make great first bikes.

[@motorcyclerewind]

These are not mine. I am helping a friend curate his collection. His has 70-80 motorcycles. Currently we are assessing each one, trying to get them running with what they show up with, so we can determine what they need.

[@MrAmartin8]

Starting fluid is made for diesel engines . Carb or brake part cleaner is the safer way to go as long as it's not the environmental water base stuff .... Also on the 50-70-90 Honda's that have an auto clutch there will be a adjusting screw for the clutch on the right engine cover . One more thing the Kawasaki's of the KZ750 era usually have prime position on the pet cock . Sure do like that Jump box ... I think what you were calling a CL125 is an XR125 . Did you notice the shocks were up side down on the XL250 ... And your determination to get these bikes running despite where you are working outside says a lot ...

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for the tips. I have been researching the C70 to see what it would take to fix it. Thanks so much for watching.

[@MOVIE7TUNES]

I love the 0ld bikes! I am currently riding around on a 1969 suzuki trail cat 120. The next project in line is a 1963 honda ct 90. Rough shape,a lot of work.

[@motorcyclerewind]

This Trail Cats are a lot of fun. Thanks for watching.

[@rsc68er]

Love the KZ750. What a classic classy bike. I still have 9 more bikes to watch yet then I will commit again. I think I see a Suzuki TS 100 , had one of those when I was a teenager, exactly the same colour and everything that bike is you have there. Bought back a lot of memories riding out the bush with my mates when i was 15, 40 years ago now. thanks Eric.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much. I love hearing motorcycle stories. Thanks for sharing.

[@AniassyII]

1 hour 30 minutes of Motorcycle Rewind! What can be better than this? I love your channel. Thank you so much! 👍👍👍

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much. I was worried it was hard getting to down to 1 1/2 hours. Thanks for watching.

[@AniassyII]

@@motorcyclerewind Yes, I can imagine that. For my part, I like to watch longer videos when they are so funny, exciting and informative. You're a really cool guy. Respect, that was hard work in those temperatures. All motorbikes definitely have a future ahead of them.

[@motorcyclerewind]

I’m with you. I watch longer videos also.

[@josephnovella3589]

Love the opening statement and your expression... what every "just a small project" dude goes through when looking at the next "that should be an easy fix" build... lol😅

[@motorcyclerewind]

That’s so right!!! This was loads of fun.

[@rloyd]

Looked like me and my five Honda CT90s, sweating out in this heat!! Awesome job and very entertaining!

[@motorcyclerewind]

That sounds like a good time. Thanks for watching.

[@davekeehn8388]

Great video. Lots of work ahead. When I go look at questionable bikes I check oil, power, if it turns and then I shoot carb cleaner directly into the air side intake on the carb. If it pops I know spark, compression and air works. On the small engines the usual problem is fuel.

[@motorcyclerewind]

You are so right. Thanks for watching.

[@skezzbom]

Love your vids as they inspire!so much,another wicked challenge as well your spoiling us Eric great job 👍

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much! Really appreciate you watching

[@bigguyonalittleadventure5673]

You’re a beast to get !1 bikes running in that heat and humidity. Not sure I could manage that. My hat’s off to you, sir.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much for watching. Next time more Gatorade. 🤣

[@The1993mustanglx]

Happy to see you got the cl160 to run. I hope that’s not the last time we see it . I have a ca160 that I love. I would really like to find a cl160 or cb160. I assume the dual carbs wake them up.

[@motorcyclerewind]

I have had a couple of CB160’s. They are loads of fun. Thanks for watching.

[@ThatOldHonda]

Nice one Eric, 14 bikes on a trailer.... approved :) One question - what happened to the roller starter you had?

[@motorcyclerewind]

One of the starter roller motors crapped out. Need to repair it. Plus, I'm a glutton for punishment! Thanks for watching

[@guylr7390]

The G4 acts like sticky float needle valve flowing just enough to pull up in the pilot jet tube. Also partially or mostly plugged main jet. A carb clean will have that one going.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for the info. I will take another run at it before they pick up the trailer.

[@mrpaulkraus]

That's one way to fog out mosquitos! Awesome epic-sode! your "hey siri" kept triggering my phone LOL

[@motorcyclerewind]

Have to do my part to keep the mosquitoes at bay. May have to add more “Hey Siri” commands to each video. 🤣😂🤣

[@rsc68er]

Eric the Honda TL 125 is a Trials bike. Very low ratio gears for climbing. These are not go fast bikes. No lights either mate.. not a trail bike but Trials bike

[@motorcyclerewind]

You’re right I saw a bolt hole on the rear fender made me think tail light. Thankfully it made it through the fire 🔥unscathed. Cleaned the spot off the tank. Thanks for watching .

[@nooybymcnooybymc7937]

Hello, greetings from Thailand. Every motorcycle is hard to find. There are still some in Thailand, but cl ct is very rare in Thailand.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much for watching.

[@goirish560]

This is an easy video to like. It was a good idea.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Glad you enjoyed it. I had a blast doing it. Thanks for watching.

[@adriantorres3221]

I can’t stand when people hoard stuff like this. It’s fine if they’re for a museum or to be shown off to others, but there’s no reason they’re own all these bikes other than you got money in your greedy. But people are free to do whatever they want, but it’s a shame that people snatch up all this stuff because they have money and then nobody else can afford it or find it.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for watching

[@guylr7390]

The G5 engine is a points mag just like the G4TR but without the dual range transmission. You may just need to clean the points to get spark on it, no battery needed.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for the info. I am planning on giving that one another go. Thanks for watching.

[@billhuff7130]

You're the man. I love watching all these old bikes being brought back to life!! I'm so jealous..

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much for watching I really appreciate it.

[@waynebuzzell2483]

The yellow KE 100 at the end seems like the float needle is just letting a trickle of gas by. Not enough to sustain operation. Just a guess.

[@motorcyclerewind]

I think you’re right. Thanks for watching.

[@robdot1964]

I doubt it’s the CDI on the CL250s. They’re pretty bulletproof

[@motorcyclerewind]

What would be your guess?

[@neilmoore7805]

That is an epic two day adventure at home. 11 wins is a good record. The quick starts on some are bonuses. That last passport just wants to go go go. Good job! It gives me hope

[@motorcyclerewind]

I really enjoyed this crazy adventure. Thanks for watching.

[@darrylnicholson1640]

I would fix the xl250s first then the ct90 and the kz750.

[@motorcyclerewind]

That’s a good plan. They will all be back one at a time to be properly sorted. The CT90 is great. Thanks for watching.

[@Turleyswheels]

that my friend is insane but you did it what a great result you are the man really ❤and it was very exciting mate that’s what all us men love old bikes and getting them started for the first time in years i absolutely loved it 😊

[@motorcyclerewind]

Beautiful property. What year is that yellow Ford? Love the episode idea.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks so much. The truck is a 1978 Ford F-150 4x4. I traded a 1978 Yamaha XS650 (that I paid $50 delivered) for it. Thanks for watching

[@bruceaskin9645]

Suzuki 100 , you simply used up the fuel in the carb.

[@motorcyclerewind]

Thanks for the heads up and thanks for watching.

[@MOVIE7TUNES]

I wish the bikes that come to me were in that kind of shape! I seem to attract the ones that have been sitting outside for twenty years...

[@motorcyclerewind]

That’s the way I normally get them. I tend to buy other people’s garbage. Thanks for watching.

[@ScottMiller-tu3gg]

You need an air-conditioned garage! (Sorry- couldn`t resist)!

[@motorcyclerewind]

That would be so awesome. 🤣😂🤣

The green 1:33:36 Kawasaki is a runner!! Great job on all of them.

[@motorcyclerewind]

That damn thing tried to kill me!!! Thanks for watching

[@waynebuzzell2483]

I have some black plastic glasses just like those that i broke right where yours are broken. I fixed them with a plastic toothpic for a split with black shrink wrap. Works really well. Just a short piece of toothpic. Goodluck.

[@motorcyclerewind]

😂🤣😂was hoping no one would notice my duct tape! Thanks for watching.

[@waynebuzzell2483]

With the black shrink wrap you barely notice Eric.

I think the red TS 100 Suzuki is called the Prospecter model. If memory serves me?

[@motorcyclerewind]

I hope so. I love that name. Will do some research. Which is my favorite part. Thanks for watching.

[@malcolmborne]

TS90/100 is the Honcho. TC90/100 the Blazer. The TC125 is the Prospector.
