  I would never have guessed watching a mechanic doing budget rebuilds on dead motorcycles could be so entertaining.

  Wrong, O Bearded One - it's "You MEET the nicest people on a Honda"!

  Craig always shocks himself because he's so grounded.

  It's nice to see a mechanic actually be a mechanic, instead of the video being turned into a rock slo-mo video.

  The pig/chicken line is to illustrate the difference between accountability and responsibility. Farmer Brown walks out on his porch and announces to the pig and chicken that they’re going to supply breakfast. The pig goes nuts, running around the barnyard while the chicken calmly sits on the fence. Pig sees this and says “Didn’t you hear what Farmer Brown said?”  Chicken says, “You don’t know the difference between accountability and responsibility.” Pig is dumbfounded, and asks what he means.  The chicken says, “I’m responsible for the eggs, but you’re accountable for the bacon.”

  That's a KZ1000J2, highly collectible and worth a lot of money. It was the platform for the 1000 Eddie Lawson replica. It was never used on CHiPs TV show... those were the KZ 900 and KZ 1000 C1 and C2 models, completely different bikes. Remove the fairing, sissy bar, crash bars and those goofy hand grips, and restore it to stock form. That bike absolutely deserves it! I hope you know what you have there, they only made it for 2 years.

  Those air cut-off valves are a future problem waiting to happen and can be deleted with a small piece of rubber cut to block the pin hole. Only thing they do is prevent intentional off throttle pops/bangs<br>Today&apos;s parts will always fail within a year and OEM ones are $100+ for a set of 4 carbs.

  I’ve got to say you’ve become one of my favourite channels to watch. So glad that you left bikes and beards and started your own channel, way better content. &nbsp;Keep up the good work both of you.

  A friend of mine had one of those and it was wicked fast. You do a really good job of narrowing down issues. Very methodical. A lot of people overlook the obvious things.

  I admire the fact you owned up to making a genuine mistake when you broke the brake fluid level sight glass. 👍😉

  I like that you cleaned the bike up beforehand. 👍👍👍
