In this episode Part 2, I get closer to driving the odyssey and a real life rescue of this abandoned FL250 a real barn find , Will it Run again?, I prep the yoke, find a lost childhood surprise in the form of some real American history in the form of some vintage baseball cards, clean the tank without removing it, locate some tires, use some 200x hubs to widen the rear axle and we make a ton of smoke in the shop! Over all another great time spent in the shop! Be sure and check out my good friend Preston's Channel, He has some really big trike news coming very soon. @ThisOldTrike

mate , your vids just get better as your personality and humour comes through... cheered up my eve in a cold wet Highlands of Scotland , many thanks 👍👍
Thanks you Hookybit, I really appreciate the kind words.
I was a grunt mechanic at a Honda dealership back in the '80's, and I loved it when one of these came in. A grunt mechanic means you do everything no one else wants to do.....but I was good at it! Two strokes need proper spark timing and mixture....period.
MR 250 tuned engines, and when the carb was set right, they were a blast to drive compared to the 3 wheeled ATV's!!
I think it was 1982, and the dealer had these on the non-current list for sale new for $1200 dollars!
Still kick myself for not buying one, but in '82, $1200 dollars was a lot of money on a really meager salary....I think I was making $5.50/hr.
The CR 250 cylinder will bolt right on, but the weight of the chassis really needed the lower end pull......all of that ringing sound was there when they were new out of the crate......it's the jack-shaft drive system.
Go through it and re-lube the sliding pulley system.....it's what a modern Jatco CVT does, only with a rubber drive belt.
With a name like that, I hope you have seen my Van Halen 3 wheeler?.
That's cool, that you were there in the dealership in there heyday. I think most of us envy you and what that must have been like, working in the candy shop. Thanks for sharing and i will lube up that slider, i should have it riding next video, waiting on parts now. Thanks.
That thing will be a blast to drive. I haven't rode one for over 30 years. Have fun!
Thanks Shane, I hope so!
The acetylene rig is one of your most versatile tools, don't fear it...understand it & enjoy it's many applications.
You sound like my late father in-law, He gave me that torch setup. I cherish it because, not only was it his, but his father's before him. He mint alot to me, I think of him every time I use it. Thank you for watching and subscribing to the channel
The ol air hammer sounds pretty healthy. At little more time and work that thing will be a solid machine.
Thanks hanky!
loctite freeze and release sprey can with nozzle straw works well on corroded metal. crc products makes some to, but dont know much about it. nice video.
Thank you Jon gone gone!
Glad to see you tackle this! Sad so many of these are left to rot they were alot of fun back in the 80s
Thank you, as a kid I saw a yellow on, thought it was amazing. But never saw it run. I'm just an old guy reliving his childhood fantasies one build at a time. Thanks for watching
@@mrcbuilds a kid in the neighborhood had that model with the small roll bar, he got us all hooked on atv back then and we're all still hooked
@@TejasToolMan I had a kid like that in my neighborhood too. Lol
Mcgyver + Def lep T shirt = Success!
Thanks Chuck, them were some good days right there.
Awesome video as always. Glad to see that Ole girl fire up. Sounds good still. Have a good one brother.
Thanks Pat! 👍
Brake fluid works very well for removing dissimilar metals!
Hi Earl, I will try and remember that next time, thanks for the tip.
@@mrcbuilds You will actually see the rust oozing out! I really enjoy your channel, you explain well and pay attention to detail. I just scored a 1982 185s. Looking forward to doing a total restoration.
Drill a small hole in the pivot boss so the lube can soak in......works every time. The corrosion is not allowing the oil onto the shaft.
That's a great tip, thank you.
"Don't stop... believing!!!" 🤘🤘
Journey Rules!
Thanks for the tank siphoning trick!
Your welcome. Thanks for watching and subscribing to the channel!
yes to what you said at the end
Thanks John, I will put something together.
@@mrcbuilds Thanks teach lolol,,,,,,I can tell your a good man,,,love your vids,,,,very helpful,,,thanks again my friend,,
My friend had an Oddesey growing up. Right before we were to take it for a spin his sister rode it up some saplings. The machine was suspended of the ground by a few dozen 2" saplings. Getting her down was a project. Needless to say their old man was not happy. Still waiting for that ride!😀
Take care
Donut Dan
One of the best parts of working with these old toys, is the memories they bring back. Thanks for sharing Dan
Great video Aaron!! A lot of good information
Thanks buddy, we need to have the lunch soon.
Keep up the great videos and your channel will take off, love it
Thanks, will do!
Really good video. I have 2.5 Odyssey's that I have sitting in my barn that I was thinking of getting rid of. The half one has the parts you need for the break lever, and the other two need rebuilt.
Can you PM me on Facebook?
Can't wait to see this thing rip definitely looking forward to seeing more.
Thanks mike, should be ripping in the next video!
Seems to be coming along real nice, mostly because the plan is well thought out. Not surprised that red seat din't fit, we yank them out of all types of side by sides to work on them and they get in the way all the time. One last thing about college in my 40's, since it was a business school all the kids wanted to have their own business so they can go on vacation as often as they want. Yep, thats how it works! Looking forward to more wheeled wonderment.
Yes a video on buying and sale would be great. I saw a big red on Craigslist today I think it was a 84 ratted out tank seat and finders shot flat tires I mean ruff. They were asking $400 firm. I don’t think they will get that up here in north Ga.
Tips and tricks is always a good video topic.
Coming along great. As for the torch some times if it’s stuck you gotta just heat it, beat it, and repeat it. Awesome work! 🤘🏻
Always been told heat is you best friend when it come to stuck parts, thanks for watching.
Please don't be scared of that torch as long as you are not near something that you can set on fire or melt or what ever, that is a tool that can save you a whole lot of headaches while working on something like those shafts and it is just not worth it when you have one at your disposal, use it.
Thanks dave, its my Achilles heal, I use it only as a last resort. Thank you for watching and the encouragement.
The one go kart I wish I had when I was a kid, Had some old predator go kart I remember but never one of these lol. These things rip from what ive seen
As a kid, I saw one, broke in a mans yard, I have never seen one run in person, I can't wait to let it rip! Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy the channel
Another Great video! They keep getting better and better.
Thank you Curtie.
i use a sand blaster kit / to siphon
Yep, Exactly what I was thinking. Thanks for watching
I'm trying to find the nylon bushing for the front j arms. Honda doesn't make them anymore. My Oddy Fl 250 is in need of this part it will dart side to side on hard pack. I want to make it safer so I can let friends drive it and I don't kill myself. Any help from the special people would make my day. Can't wait to see the smile when you get yours out for a rip.

Hey mrc!! Another great video!… I started watching CZcams on my smart TV lately… I have only learned how to LIKE your videos not COMMENT…Just by chance, do you know how to comment on a smart TV?… Otherwise I am going back to my phone to leave this comment. Not sure if that’s messing up the views…?? Thanks again, Chris
I have the same problem, I dont think the chat feature is set up for smart TVs. Thanks for watching!
A video about flipping would be cool but with todays prices it’s tough to flip and not take a loss somewhere…. Hopefully the market levels out soon🤞🏻….. also love all your videos!
Thanks for the feed back.
I recently bought an atc 200s and need rear wheels for it. I've searched, and searched, and searched the internet for them and can't find a thing. If you have any information on where I could buy some I would greatly appreciate it. Love the videos man. You're a lifesaver 🤘
No problem, you can get universal wheels by itp wheel to fit your lug pattern 4x130 with a 8x8 wheel. You can find them on ebay about 60 each. Or you can buy 300ex hubs, and make the rear wider and converts to 4x110 pattern, you then can run any modern tear 4 wheeler wheel and tire combo. This only works on the rear.
@@mrcbuilds thanks so much man. You're making the best Atc content on CZcams my friend
Do the video on purchases ATVs.
Like a buyers guide? Or how to buy and sell?
@@mrcbuilds How you locate project ATVs. What to look for so you don’t end up with a boat anchor. What is a reasonable price to pay. What is a good first project. Which states are the best suppliers of ATVs. How far do you travel for project ATVs? How much are you willing to spend on a project? Are you just using market place to locate ATVs?
My name is Dennis I restore FL250's , if you need any parts , let me know , I probably have it, or can direct you to who does.
Thank you dennis, I will keep you in mind.
Hey Sarah I seen you offer you could help with some Hondas on one of your videos my name's Stephen McCreery is any way you can get back and try to help me with a Honda xr200r I would greatly appreciate it thank
I'm not much on motorcycles, but tell me what its doing?
