Top tip! If the ignition key is in a silly location (eg next to the left rear shock) then triple-check that you actually remembered to turn the stupid thing on. 85% of the starting issues I've had with old Kawasaki trail bikes were caused by this.

[@residentmusician]

@@deborahchesser7375 I started more than one fire by running old barn bikes that leaked fuel and had a hole in the exhaust. It can be a crazy mess, however, I think the focus was on making the engine run, everything else will need attention to be ridden more than down the drive way. Tires that seem ok will turn to dust in mere miles. Bushings become hard, the chain is dry, I hope there is oil in it too. All that said, I had no idea custom gaskets were so easy. I bet I have half a dozen gaskets I could remake between two motorcycles and two 4wheelers.

[@just-dl]

@@residentmusician I concur about the focus on making the engine run; he alludes to it twice, once up front by saying car buyers should start on the "less trivial" end of the continuum, while owners should start on the easy end. That, and his near the closing comment about getting the engine running before worrying about the breaks, chains, etc, comes down to the idea of why work on a bike if the engine is shot. So, confirming the mill is viable is job #1. Not job # only! there will, in all likelihood, be other tasks for a bike that has spent most of my adult life sitting. But, there are rewards...the first time in x-years the engine turns over...the first time you squeeze the break handle, and feel actual, bona fide resistance...no one has even mentioned the transmission, yet! tires, lights, chain/belt bits and pieces...a muffler-shaped-object is important, too. Yeah, homey is got some work ahead of him. Lucky B*st*rd....

The thing about Ryan is that he cranks out stuff that nobody does. He makes it logical and scientific and doesn't care about etiquette. Pure honesty and the scientific method (to a certain degree and most of the time) are his landmark. A mark nobody else reaches in quality and content by the way. As a matter of fact it is scary to think about how he is coming up with all this off the hook stuff. And here is exactly why we love Ryan from Fortnine. He is in a league of his own 'cause nobody can talk about motorcycle stuff with a science spin as confident as he can. Nobody is more professional, serious and funnier than him. Nobody knows more about teaching the viewers about motorcycling science more effectively. Nobody works as consistently at the same high level and shocks the viewers with another off the wall review each time. Continue to razzle dazzle us and spin our heads Ryan... maybe a review why motorcycling under the influence is dangerous... throw charts and calculations at us... ending up with a bunch of liquor using a wet lab to prove your point... hmmmm... we love your stuff Ryan F9... whatever you come up with next...

Great idea! Though you should take care to get the specific type of bulb, in order for it to work with the reflector.

@@GrowingDownUnder Hello if you have spark and compression then just pour a little bit of petrol mixed with 2 stroke oil down the spark plug hole, just a little roughly about a cap full 2 or 3ml then refit the plug and try stating it again. It should now run for a few seconds on that little bit of petrol you just poured down the sparkplug hole, so if it now starts & runs for a few seconds then stops again it's telling you it's a fuel problem/carburettor. ☺️

I had the CL360 when I was a young lad back in the 1980s. Great bike, 6 speed transmission and the exhaust came up close to the seat making it a bit more appropriate if you wanted to do any off road shenanigans. Which I did. Such memories.

[@neilmackey9626]

Great to see and hear you, Ryan...hope this finds you and yours well! Glad to get a well-needed Ryan fix! I'd add two things...first, check that engine oil! While it won't magically disappear, innumerable heat and cold cycles may have added condensation, perhaps diluting that all important lubricant. I've been over numerous "in storage" bikes and always make a habit of starting with fresh fluids. The other biggie is check the tires. If that bike has been in storage for any length of time, the tires are probably cracked and rotted. Be a shame to do the work to get it running, only to crash on the test ride because a tire (or two) failed... Cheers! 😎

Nevermind about the other parts I put on the truck over the years. Also got a Suzuki 2000 650SV last year, and just replaced all seals and fuel lines this past winter. The worst were the choke plunger O-rings. I could have just stopped there, but by the time I found how bad they were, the carbs were halfway out. Love the retro look of the Honda 360. My first bike was a 1970 Honda 350 "dual sport". It kind of sucked, but my next bike was a Norton 850 (1974) which I got in 1975.

I'm rocking with my CB500 from 1997 😎 My dad and I restored it after being stopped for at least 4 years. We had to do almost everything that was in this video. Thanks Fornite, I mean FortNine.

Thanks for several videos on the cb360. I am currently working on a cb360 project. I love the old classic bikes.

The dude in the old car appreciating the old motorcycle is such a scene. Different fonts, same words

Excellent content! Currently restoring a bike from 1963 and have been spending the last week doing most of these things! Could have used your video last week, I'll tell you that, would have made my work much smoother!

I love these videos. I mostly appreciate the links to all the products he talks about. Saves so much time!
