We have made it. In this video we are putting our work to the test with the first start up of the XL185s motor we overhauled just a few months back.
With just a few more things to button up, let's see how we did on this fresh rebuild.
This year (2024) will be attending the "Mid-Ohio Vintage Days" event over in Lexington, Ohio. Would love to see anyone there who has been a supporter of the channel to shake your hand!
You can find out more about this event here - vintagemotorcycledays.com
Enjoy
Here are some of the tools and Misc stuff I have used for this rebuild:
Motor coater spray paint (Gloss Black) HERE-

Permatex Assembly lube:

Tusk Valve Spring Compressor
