You are paying way too much attention to the negative things on the sick social media world.
Stop worrying about what people think about how you do what you do. Loved it! I just subscribed. 👍🏻
Poor old girl it needs a birtday
get that engine out it will need spliting has the rubber crank seals will of gone by now and need replacing along with the crank bearings and sealing rings and the pistons will need sorting along with its bore
50/50 mixture of Acetone and A.T.F. works excellent for rings rusted/fused in cylinder sleeves. Good job on the puller, I have a similar slightly more elaborate setup that I've used several times over the years. I often get motorcycles to restore that have been literally under water for weeks after our Florida hurricanes. Like life itself it's often about prayer and patience.
Thats How I get Brake calipers unstuck, I get all kinds of motors ,unstuck, Get a 55 gallon drum, Fill with waste oil Bring it to boil, and lower the motor in oil for 2-3 days and I free them all up, I took a Buick 401 nail head that was Buried underground 25 years, Boiled 4 days , everything was free
.. that's Cool, Honda CB750four is even Cooler
2t's run better with a mist of water .eg on a damp day they go like s--t off a blanket..
When people ask me how I got so handy fixing old chunk I tell them I grew up broke and fix what I had. Great job just subscribed
Your not supossed to turn a claccic up side down theres still 2 stroke oil in the bottle
A great iconic bike worthy of restoration
Bought a brand new T500 in 1972 if I remember right. Loved it. Rode it from Los Angeles to Jacksonville, Florida in 3 days flat! That bike was amazing at high speed for hours on end.
Wahoo! After several English motorcycles of various types, I acquired a Titan back in about 1975 or so..
Rule of thumb to keep in mind on every restore project "Heat is your Friend". Keep up the good work.
What a rescue!! Way to go y’all! ✌️
whew what a chore! I had never seen the grease gun used to free up a piston like that ! looking forward to the rest of the build!
Another great time spent with RESURRECTED GARAGE!! Thanks for posting y’all!!!
My hobby became a business, before I retired from the Air Force I attended MMI. My OHV shop does pretty well, spring summer and fall anyway. In the Winter, I get snowmobiles in a bunch, summer, jet ski's bikes and quads. We're strictly a service and repair shop. We have done occasional restorations, old vintage MX stuff.
It may have been built in late '74 but that is a 1975 model year T500 (T500M). Last year for the T500 before the cosmetically restyled GT500 debuted with a front disc brake for '76. In the US the color is called Coronado blue. This striking color along with the gold pinstripes on the tank are hallmarks of the 1975 T500. Side note - the T500M didn't come from the factory with the rear passenger grab rail... Probably a cost cutting measure but I think it looks good without it. I own a very low mileage all original (right down to the IRC Inoue tires) T500M myself. Awesome find and glad it gets a second chance at life! 👍 Edit: The front tire appears to be the original one. These were called the T500 Titan. Excellent bikes and really fun to ride!
