Saving A Honda Elite 150 Deluxe - Part 2 | DIY Scooter Restoration Project / Honda Scooter Rebuild

Welcome back to the channel!
In today's episode we continue working on the 1985 Honda Elite 150 Deluxe. It time to strip off everything and determine the real damage hidden underneath.
I'm excited to introduce my 1985 Honda Elite 150 Deluxe! Also known as a Honda Spacy in Japan, this JDM Honda scooter 150 was the top of the line back in 1985. It is the deluxe model which mean this Honda scooter comes with a flip up headlight! How many scooters have you seen with one of those?
This scooter restoration project is not going to be an easy one and is most definitely thebsrecord spec. Almost every panel on this Honda Elite 150 is either damaged, missing, or doesn't line up. Almost every aspect of this scooter will need to be looked at and addressed in one way shape or form. In any case, I will be documenting this scooter build every step of the way and I hope you all enjoy!
For those interested in scooter rebuilds, check out my Honda Helix ( CN250 / Honda Fusion / Honda Spazio ) scooter project from my previous videos.
It's not an ae86 trueno coupe but it is another JDM icon worth saving. Also, the 150cc engine should be quick and the flip up headlight will be awesome!
Don't worry the Toyota Corolla ae86 project is still under way and we will be getting back into the swing of things soon. We will continue to shave the ae86 engine bay and prep the ae86 build for final assembly and paint.
As always, stay tuned for more updates to come on the project ae86 and now the 1985 Honda Elite 150 Deluxe diy scooter restoration project

Even it might cost you a little bit more on powder coating, learning from resolving an actual is priceless. Good decision.

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks man!! I think it was the right move!

[@justblairthompson]

I have to respectfully disagree with you on the naked handlebars.

[@TheBSRecord]

I get it man, it's not for everyone. This will be my first "naked" handle bar setup so I'll have to see how I like it when it's all done. I like the look, but who knows I may not like how it feels.. Good thing is I I have all the stock parts so I can always swap back if I don't like it 👍thanks for tuning in and commneting!

[@justblairthompson]

@@TheBSRecord love the Honda and I enjoy your vids. Unfortunately that bike is pretty rare here in the UK. I can't afford to both buy one and restore it. Doing a 1980s siperbike instead. They are pretty common here and pretty cheap in comparison

[@DL30Creations]

After disassembling and getting rid of those nasty parts remember ... It DID fire up and run for you WITH them installed. Honda engineering at its best, you can't kill them.

[@KingCapGaming]

Nice video

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks for tuning in and commenting man!!

[@bobbytheitguy4289]

no naked handle bar! keep it original!!

[@linchester8464]

this project is a steep hill to climb. and it does seem the previous owners didnt bother to maintain the bike in any shape or form. major warning bells is that disgusting air filter and the murky coolant 6:36 watch out she is a squirter prob while waiting for the frame to come back is just tackling the parts and the bench testing of the engine. But i think it prob better to tear apart the cylinder and check for damage. Oh yea I am not sure if you are into anime, there is an anime that is currently airing this season and its all about the Honda Super Cub and the anime name is Super Cub myanimelist.net/anime/40685/Super_Cub you should check it out.

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks for tuning in and commenting! YES! I heard about that anime and are wanting to watch it too. It's definitely in rough shape, but it will make it that much sweeter after its done. I've got a backup plan of the engine is completely shot 👍

[@johngoepel5263]

Damn, I was really hoping you'd show how you removed the handlebars.

[@TheBSRecord]

The plastics over the handlebars have to come off to expose the handle bars. If I recall correctly, there is a big nut holding the stock bars to the stem. Undo that nut and the stock bars should pop off. Hopefully this helps!

How are you doing Buddy, my name is Tony from Garland, Texas and I love your project on the ch150 you’re doing a wonderful job and at the same time I would like to ask you a question on how to get a fuel sending unit for my 86 Elite CH150 that was not driven for at least 30 years. Thank you my friend and hope you can help me.

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks for watching! You may be able to wire in one from a ch80. They may be easier to find 😁

[@antoniotorres6819]

Thank you very much my friend !!!

[@jamesbalsley6135]

I heard you say your in Louisville? Louisville Kentucky? If so any chance you know any decent welders in the area thatll do small moped work?

[@TheBSRecord]

Yup that's where I'm from. Newman's Finishing Touches does great work. He has welded up some shock mounts for me in the past 👍

[@davidedwards4088]

I have one in the garage I haven't rode in almost 35 years.😳 I think It's still a cool scooter, is there such a thing as a scooter barn find?

[@TheBSRecord]

Super cool! what color is it? I would call that a barn find for sure!

[@davidedwards4088]

[@DL30Creations]

Barn find? I would feel like Indiana Jones finding the lost ark with that scooter there!

[@davidedwards4088]

@@DL30Creations 🤣 my dad bought it for me when I was 19. I'm 55 now I'm going to try to get it running by the time I reach 60. it's funny, I still have my old Shoei Helmet too.

[@DL30Creations]

@@davidedwards4088 keep me posted sounds awesome. I am still looking for more. I am getting my wife hooked on the style and she likes the pop up light.

[@newenglandpats59]

I’d like to know about your power ratchet. What kind is it and model number. I do my own work on my Helix. I’m pretty impressed with that.

[@lose2live]

Awesome project

[@TheBSRecord]

Thanks man! More updates to come!
