Hey Craig, after recovering from a stroke, and cancer, I’ve finally got a bike again, I can’t begin to tell you how grateful I am to be given the opportunity to ride again.<br>2001 Honda Blackbird, more fun than you can shake a stick at.<br>You have kept my inspiration high, thank you and Dan for the encouragement and entertainment.<br>God bless you both. 🙏👍🏼

Save the 450!! That's a great looking bike that deserves a second chance. Hell I'd give it a home, if I were in the US.

The best BIKER youtube channel hands down! No blah blah blah, just the best you can do with motorcycles: give them life again. No matter style, brand, engine, Craig nails it. cheers

Hey Craig! I'm a former Honda sales manager from Maryland, worked for Cycle World in Rosedale for almost 30 years selling Honda and the other big 3, we were one of the few dealers that had all 4 of the Japanese brands together under one roof. I'm now retired and living in your State of PA, 67 and still riding. I enjoy watching your videos, Shawns too. You guys bring back memories because you do what I used to do for all those years, chase bikes. Anyway that CMX 450 was only made for 2 years, 86-87, I sold them new! It would be a shame to part that bike out. I'd make a effort to find a title before you start tearing it down. Take Care, and keep the videos coming. Gives a old man who loves motorcycles something to watch! 😁

Both bikes look like they have potential to be rescued. Shame they're getting parted out. That sissy bar is definitely a throwback!

Gotta love the pressure washing ASMR segment, they are a favourite part of your resto vids. Yes i have OCD, but i consider it of "suffering" from OCD.

as a bike mechanic myself. I found myself spending all my time working on everyone else bike and not having a fun project of my own. Well now that changed i got myself a 1969 norton commando that hadnt run since 1972. Had it running in 2 days and theres nothing like the rush it gives you when you hear it start after so long.
