Hi Chris, wanted to check with you and see if you could tell me the brand name and the cost of your car lift. Recently purchased a fire station for my home and workshop in Michigan and I feel you always do a lot of research and your knowledge on this would be much appreciated. Also, your Suzuki TS185 1974 Motorcycle, if you ever decide to sell that, please let me know.​@@NoNonsenseKnowHow hi Chris. I live in Jackson Michigan. Wanted to ask you two questions. What’s the brand name of your post car lift?

[@artyoung5923]

That smile from the baby was so precious. You gotta love that and I know you do happy for both of you and having a child changes your life man gives you a whole new perspective on everything and just really happy for you.

[@bobhenry6159]

​@@kurtmyers1794 I bought a 12 year old Silver Celica in the early '90's as a station car, hoping it would last a year. Plugs, cap, rotor and 1 brake job in 20K. 5 years later I sold it for $900, 2 times what I paid and had in. I think the engine was 2TC? Anyway, in 2001 or 2, I see it at a 7-11. I knew it was the same car because the oxidation pattern (metallic paint) was so unique. Still on the road. 2nd best used car I ever owned as far as reliability and low maintenance. The best (by far) was a 2000 LeSabre limited. That car was so good, I sold my S80 because I stopped driving it. What a car.

[@clintwatts9863]

I'm an old retired mechanic and really enjoy your channel. Also had several Kaw's back in the mid 70's (Z1 and later a KZ1000) So I love the bike video's.

I have been in love with the look and shape of 1970's and 1980's Kawasaki and Honda motorcycles for the longest time. The liter motorcycles like this are so comfortable. I think they are more comfortable than the new motorcycles. Less plastic too, which tells you these older motorcycles will still be on the roads 80+ years from today verses the newer plastic riddled motorcycles that will fall apart in just 10 to 15 years from today. It's incredible how well these vintage motorcycles were constructed. They are built to run indefinitely, as long as you maintain it. The newer motorcycles have a shelf life.

[@williamward7707]

Thanks for posting... I bought one of the first 1973 903 z1's out of the box in Lancaster TX (just south of Dallas). I watched the mechanic unbox and assemble it. I told him I didn't want any other butt setting on that seat but mine. When he started it and let it warm up he suddenly jumped on it and ripped it up and down the highway. Upon his return I let him know I didn't appreciate what he had just done. He then told me he was required, from Kawasaki, that he had to do that to seat the rings before delivery. I enjoyed that bike for thousands of miles for many many years. I don't remember anyone else holding the bars but me, although there might have been one or two; but I don't remember.

[@claztube]

Great almost, - chuckle- memory. You got me to thinking about my similar experience... thanks for sharing and jostling my little gray cells. There is in all of us motorheads in our past a set of wheels we hold close to our heartstrings all the way to our graves.

[@MarkHicks326]

Weird. A bit unChris-like😊 The only brand new Kawasaki I ever bought was an 88 KLR and the mechanic when servicing it new left a handprint of battery acid that stayed on that Big 6 gallon tank forever

[@QuantumTime-pc9ts]

I can appreciate the “good to ride” criteria for the many machines you own. It seems no matter how hard you try to protect and eliminate any sort of damage something always happens. I look back and realize that I enjoyed the vehicles that were just daily drivers. It’s very difficult in my opinion to have a show quality every day or even every weekend driver. My philosophy is to focus on the pure mechanical aspects and keep up the appearance at a decent level and run the tires off. My hats off to those who can keep there vehicles running and always looking immaculate. I like the content and information learned from your knowledge and experience.

[@TomScott__]

Thank you for this video. When I was 21 years old, I bought a brand new 1985 Kawasaki 550 LTD that looked a lot like that. I drove it in Wisconsin for 2 years, so it had under 1000 miles on it when I moved to Dallas, Texas, for a job. It was too dangerous to ride a motorcycle in Dallas traffic, so I parked it until 1989 when I sold it. I sure miss that bike now that I'm retired and I live in the countryside again. Good memories, gave me chills watching you work on it. Thanks again.

Bringing back memories for me too I had a 1300 Kawasaki Voyager. Bought it from a guy had been sitting only about 5 years but long enough that he tried to start it and gummed all the injectors up. Once I tore the fuel system all apart and cleaned it was the smoothest running bike I ever threw a leg over. Great video Chris!

[@Sig.40]

[@Kinann]

My room mate had this exact bike, same color. First nice March day after an IL winter we take it out for a Saturday afternoon ride, maybe after a pop or two?. About a mile from the house, we're doing 50 mph on a 4 lane road, a bike in the other direction waves at us, roomie drops it a gear and pulls the front waay up. I'm on the back and feel the bike go past the center of gravity and start heading backwards, I give it a quick lean forward and it sets back down. Roomie turns back to me and says "THANKS!" Thanks for jarring loose this memory!

[@horstszibulski19]

Had something similar, riding with my mate on his Suzuki GS400 some 25yrs ago, he struggled to get around a slow curve and I just rocked the center of gravity with my fat ass and we made it somehow...it could work... 🙃😉

[@lxbam]

Thanks for the memories. In 1987, I bought that very bike which was my first and last bike. I really do miss the ride. Opened up, that bike puts out a unique sound, which I heard on this episode for the first time since I sold it to a neighbor in 1994. I really needed the cash. He kept the remains of an old bike he wrecked in his garage for years, saying he was going to rebuild that bike someday. Well, I sold him my bike and oh how thrilled he was to get it. He had the bike less than a year before he wrecked that bike to. I guess he's got what remains of it in his garage next to the other one.

Your confidence with fixing vehicles up is astounding! It shows that you have years and years of experience! It's videos like these that saved my motorcycle trip to Norway! Being stranded in Germany with a burned out stator made me worry the trip was over for sure! And it being summer and motorcycle season, every mechanic was fully booked. Until one mechanic said it was ok to use their tools and give it a try myself! Your videos gave me the confidence that I could do it, even though it was my very first time tinkering on the bike. The chinesium replacement stator that I could get the same day (without having to wait at least a week for an OEM part) luckily hold up for the rest of the trip 😅 Keep up the good work Chris!

Bring on the moto videos, love them here! It seems other motorcycle creators (will it run, style), gloss over all the little bits - like taking apart carbs, checking brake pistons, bleeding out cruddy brake fluid and cleaning master cylinders, electrical diagnosis, etc. It was cool to see you do all of those while still keeping the momentum going. I'm still looking for my first 80s-90s bike to put back on the road, your video also helps with motivation!
