Can't wait to see the rebuild, reminds me of my buddies Rokon when I was a kid. That two-stroke never ran right. His dad welded a pipe at a 45 degree angle to carry a shovel. He used it in the rice fields.

I've never been fan of old two strokes. Too unreliable. This should be much better.

Neat little bike! I can’t wait to see how things unfold. Glitters ✨ great for the dance floor…😂.

I've been waiting to see this project. Is going to be so cool when you're done. I bet you are happy to have a nice warm shed to work in.

Having the warm shed was the 1st step bit a good one for sure. It's coming along. The hard part is always having to wait for parts up here. 1-2 weeks for everything.

Just found your channel and this build. Looking forward to it. As the fork repair that is common for the older ones to crack there. Sorry to see you taking parts off of it engine, transmission. It will loose most of its value if you do. Just remember this is NOT like a regular motorcycle will not handle or ride like one no matter what modifications you do. Just my 2 cents worth.

Well I have to agree with the not like a motorcycle part. It rides nothing like what I'm used to as far as a motorcycle goes. We've ridden a few times and I've discovered how important your legs are to riding this bike. As far as the value goes it is not a concern at this point. Our goal is to build a really reliable bike with some upgraded features along the way. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy!

I always wanted one of those but it never fails that play $$$ has to be deverted.

I like the yellow.

It is surprisingly shiny after 52 years of age.

If you have any questions on these machines I'd be happy to help I have countless hours working on these incredible machines I have a 1964 mk2 and a 1969 parts bike. I converted my 1964 mk2 over to electric and it's radical

So far I've managed to figure most things out. The only thing I'm needing is going to be a new front wheel. Apparently mine fell off a cliff at some point causing lots of damage. I've fixed most but the wheel is not all that good.

I'd love to see the electric version. That sounds awesome!

I have a 1968 Trail Breaker and would love to have you as a contact. Mine is in great original condition.

Iv done the maintenance on a fleet of Rokons for several years for a guy who uses them for trail building. Now the early ones like yours are the most classic with the 2 stroke . What I can tell you is that if you are at all used to a real motorcycle you will be very un impressed with how a rokon works and rides. They are more of a tractor than a motorcycle. What they gain in being 2wd they quickly loose because of lack of suspension and power . They handle like a tank.

I'm expecting that sort of thing. I definitely want to put the Maxxis tires on it and I'm not sure if it's worth it but I see that you can purchase the suspension front fork. Have you done one of those. It looks like it might help.
