Well we bought 2 Honda Choppers, the CB750 and the CB450, with little history of the bikes and this is what we found. Whenever we buy older bikes, it seems they are all just neglected and come to us with many issues. Oh well. Another day in the life. Back to Harley Freaking Davidson, American Iron! when it was still American!
Happy 4th of July, and hope everyone celebrates their freedoms across the globe!
Ride Free!

Who we are:
Old School Bikes and Old School Ways! Ride hard, wrench a lot, and always having a blast.
Bike camping, wrenching, and shenanigans. My husband and I create motorcycle content for people that are tired of seeing all of the fake insta accounts of sponsored boring yuppies.
Here's some realness, we are just broke bikers living the low life and getting by. I ride a 1985 Ironhead Chopper as my daily, my touring bike is a 1984 FXR. We have lots of Ironheads and FXRs and are constantly building more, trying to keep these old neglected scoots on the road instead of rotting away in a garage.
Appreciate all the love & support
Keeping it Real! Keep it Sketchy!
FTW💚Sally

I think the clutch is your problem. On the early Hondas the clutch is integral to the kick start. If the clutch slips, the kick cannot turn the engine. Most of the time you will have glazed steel plates in the clutch causing the slip. I would take the steels and cross sand them to rejuvenate the grip. Just subscribed now. Nice to see your work.

Lol, that's exactly why I buy used bikes as cheap as possible cus when I do, I do it with rebuild in mind. I have 8 running Harleys and three bikes in different stages. The past almost two yrs, I've been wanting to get into building a Honda chopper, 250, 500 just cus I been wanting to for a long time. I'm 60 now so I'm in no hurry but I would like to build a lil chopper for a granddaughter, lol, I hope she'll even ride it cus she has no idea what I'm doing.... Y'all take care n hang in there yea

Happy Independence Day this 4th day of July 2024! It's always kind of a gamble when buying old used bikes. Sometimes you strike gold, sometimes it's all dirt. I know how it goes. All I ride or drive is used. I know there will always something that needs fixing. I always have to put more in it than I hoped I wouldn't have to. But it usually evens out in the end. Sorry you guys are having issues on the new choppers but look at it as learning something new on Japan bikes. Y'all ride and stay safe! Peace!

Triumph was my first bike when I was 15 , then went to Harley & never looked back . Raised around clubs & the mc lifestyle and in the early 70's , you only seen a few chopped Hondas , but they wasn't treated real good by anyone . Or much liked as far as street bikes go . In my 60's now & still haven't thrown a leg over one ! But you mentioned the tires being low on air ? That's how ya ride a chopper with a hardtail frame . Gives you a little smoother ride & better handling in curves . Stops the bounce , if that makes sense to you

The 450 clutch is slipping when you are kicking it. The kick start drives the crank thru the clutch. Take the clutch apart and rough up the steel plates on your grinder - will get you going.

I’m so sorry you’re having issues with the newest purchases but also, at least I’m not the only one. 🥴 Any bike older than 20 years that’s got ‘age related marks’ on the outside is gonna have age related marks on the inside too. Bikes seem to be more neglected than a lot of things and the lack of care over time is mind blowing. Also design flaws are not just reserved to one make. I’m fighting a Honda Super Dream from 1980, I think you called it a Hawk? And a ‘Restored’ Classic Mini. Both were bought as runners and both need pretty major work to move to be useable😢 By old, expect trouble 👿 Gotta say though, I love the springers and wheel on the 750. Can’t say much nice about the 450 so I won’t say anything 😂 Good luck, we’re all right behind you, having the very same issues! 😖🤬😤 Keep practicing your smile 😁😬

When I had my V Star 650, there were nothing but problems. When I would have it taken in for service, the previous owner(s) had royally screwed it up, and it was pretty much all unfixable. I had to fully replace the bike. Sold it, let them know what had been found wrong with it and bought a Triumph. I learned that having a Triumph is way too expensive to maintain and buy parts for. Nobody in the US had any parts, so they all had to be shipped from UK. Never again... At least, if I learn to work on a Harley, I can generally fix it myself for a reasonable price. Thank you for teaching us alongside you.

Yeah, I have a SOHC 750 Honda 1976. It’s gone through 3 sets of coils in one year. I’ve stripped out the ignition system only to find that the previous owner fitted DOHC 750 ignition coils ( they’re weaker so burn out on a SOHC) People! Indeed , it was built by an engineer too. These old Hondas are a bunch of maintenance and heartache , but I love mine - wouldn’t part with it.

"Dealing with people is a pain..." For this reason, I hate buying or selling things to people. A year ago I bought a motorcycle, the seller assured me that everything was fine (I am pretty well versed in technology, but there are some nuances that show themselves only after the start of operation). I asked the seller, "Why did he remove the side cover of the engine?" and he answered me: "I was repairing the starter." I told him: "You could get the starter without removing the side cover..." In general, after buying this motorcycle, I rode for several days and on the way to the sea (far from home), my engine started pounding. As a result, I had to evacuate the motorcycle with a tow truck (naturally it turned out to be expensive for me). It turned out that for some reason this guy climbed under the generator to the overrunning clutch and he did not put the bolts on the "Thread Lock", from which the bolts unscrewed and staged a "Disco" in the engine. In general, I had to make major repairs. And this is only the third part that happened to this motorcycle. The guy was a fraud. I'm sorry if I wrote something wrong (English is my weak point).

At least on my 65 triumph doesn't need to split the case for anything other then rod bearings. I've rebuilt my Triumph hard tail chopper. Bottom end and top end. All I need to do is put the head back on. I just lost interest in it. I'll get it back together again when I'm in the mood. Girder front end and a new 21" front wheel. I need to put a tension pulley on on the cain to keep it from hitting my new oil tank.

My only question is why didn't you try and push start the little Hiroshima Screamer , that would confirm if your assumption on the kickstart cog is right I guess. That 750 is gonna need new bottom end bearings at the least , chances are they flogged that thing with low oil or the oil journals were blocked at some stage , hope ya didn't pay too much for 'em.

Sometimes in the translation of early Japanese bike workshop manuals into English they get a little 'confused' and even put the wrong English word in the wrong place etc.... Are you certain that when it says 'split the crankcase' it doesn't just mean take the right hand side cover off the engine ?.. Might be worth a try before you take down the top end and do a full engine teardown?..

I would own rice anyday bought one harley in my life , yeah a amf 900 sporty. talk about shit stomper. back then it rode nice, until ir didn't. but the 750 and 450 are easy to work on after yea know the tricks. hell I owned the widowmaker for twenty odd years. never left me walking. that harley would go more then a mile from oriy steels shop. hell even nicky nute couldn't fix that pig. but if you keep up the tune then the honda rubs for days. had over 300 grand on it when //i gave up the ghost. yeah an't easy, but riding a mush tail for that long does the body in. I would love too ride another. but those days are done. youth and will, run those dazes and knights willing to treck the miles, and smiles. bekind rewind ,ya never know what the dazes will bring/ ?

Entertaining and informative video! BMW airheads are also simple machines and easy to work on like Harleys. If you're not familiar with the term "airhead" its just BMW speak for their air cooled push rod actuated opposed twin engine. I bought a 1986 BMW R80 (which is an "airhead") a few months ago for a cheap but it did need some fixing and cleaning. I posted a walk around video of it on my yt page. Please check it out!

You find out, before you hand over the money. And if you don't. Point your finger and go stand in front of the mirror. It's not a harley problem or a Honda problem. This is like going to a strip club and marrying the girl with the biggest hooters. But but but it's a chopper and looks really cool man. If you're 15 years old and you've been saving up your hay Hauling money , you get a pass. If you're a grown 🫏 man well... it is what it is
