Nice bike, I got one yesterday

I don’t think that version of cb 500 ever came to states. I’ve never seen one.

Excellent motorcycle. They are way more capable than people think

Haha. Stopped 0:20 seconds into the video to post a comment . That picture at 0:20 with the indicators hanging, looks a very sad bike.

Yeah ❤💪🐂

Might I suggest that it would be a good idea to flush out the cooling system, radiator, hoses engine etc and instal fresh coolant while you have gone this far also a good coat of High Temperature paint on the exhaust might help keep it from rusting up again! Thanks

Did anyone ever tell you NOT to polish your saddle? If you do you tend to slide all over the saddle whilst riding! Also there is a kitchen cleaner called ELBOW GREASE, WHICH IS VERY GOOD AT CLEANING DIRTY MOTORCYCLE BITS!!! Well done waiting for the next episode!!!

Vendo una de esas

poor poor baby, make her better faster than she was.

Excellent. I've had two of these bikes, done 300,000 kms on them between them. Still have one in my garage. It's going to be my restoration project when I retire from work in one year's time. Watching your videos is very motivating for me.

You might find this interesting, full CB 500 engine build series. This is a tuned engine 😎 czcams.com/play/PL5tZOq6kKBZkTnXwm9QPk3bpRY0lRK4IU.html

Some sound would be nice

I think the battery should have been took off first a lot safer…..

I have a feeling my girlfriend bought that bike last year 🤣 It looks exactly like this one

Full restoration means takeing the bike's 1/3 parts off and cleaning them.

Dont understand why these things are so heavy compared to its competition

Hi.. Was wondering if you are going to fully strip it and rebuild.. Or jst a clean n tidy up cheers

I like the colours to your klr.

Quick question hoping someone can answer I just bought a 1980 xt250 didnt come with battery, all light light up and turn signals when running. Stupid question do I need a battery? and if yes why and will it keep charging as I run motorcycle? sorry im a rookie with motorcyles!

Rebuilding a CBR400 atm

Brilliant great job

Great job man! I'd pay you that amount to restore mine too! :D All the best! 💪

Scusa forse non l ho letto.. Di che anno è la moto? Grazie mille e grazie x il tutorial di restauro ❤

Tenho uma dessa, 2002 preta no Brasil, restaurei ela toda, ficou muito bom

Gracias, es muy buena moto, gracias por devolverla a la carretera

Hii. Im intersing in the protection motor, is posible buy? In internet o cant found. Can you helpme? I m from Mallorca Spain. Thanks 😅

schön gemacht, hab mir heute auch eine gekauft.

Exited for part 2!!

Hi Great project. I have found it very useful but please can you put part 5 up as I can't find it. Thsnks

Waiting and looking forward for part 2 !!! 😊

When p2?

If you have to do a job like this again, I can recommend the following. Get a die grinder, and then look for 3M scotch brite coarse cleaning discs. I don't know if google translated got that right. in German this means: 3M scotch brite Grobreinigungsscheiben. That will save you a lot of work and sweat in the future! Regards from Berlin.. ;-)

I have an xt 250 from '79, and I'm so excited to see how to restore it, there is not a lot of videos about it. I wait for the next video 😁

Well that's far from "full restoration", it was just cleaning some 12yrs old dust but glad another CB500 will run and give joy.

Nice video, on the fuel tap, there’s a little hole on it. This is visible at 03:12 of the video and the hole is at the top. I was wondering is there a pipe attached to that as my dad and I are restoring his CB500 and when the engine shuts off, fuel spurts out of it for a second. Do you think it could be the rubber seal inside?

Or use a wire brush on an angle grinder and save yourself hours of work

Wow! coole Yamaha! Ich bekam 1980 von meiner Großtante eine DT 175 geschenkt, nagelneu. Beste Zeiten damals. Ich war stolz wie Bolle. Leider hat die Yamaha nur ein paar Jahre überlebt damals.

Restoration or just cleaning?

im looking at one too; can get it relatively cheap (it belongs to my boss) , but it will take some time, love and replacement to get it to former glory. tnx fora tear down, will deff make my life easier once i start tearing one down . cheers.

Belíssima motocicleta tenho uma na cor azul, essa vai ser guardada para coleção

Good restoration. I have a 2001 CB500Y.

Hallo, ich hatte mehrere KLR 650 über die letzten 25 Jahre, auch eine Tengai. Die liefen alle sehr gut! Nur die KLX 650 machte immer Probleme mit dem Vergaser. Nicht empfehlenswert!

Awesome !!!😄

Stock stock stock. I bet its even running with a broke dookicky.

Nice! What is the aftermarket fuel filter that you used?

A moto só estava precisando de um dono, cuidados especiais!
