I hope this was easy enough to follow. I apologize for the lack of "good" camera angles, but that's a tight spot to get into even without a camera. Check out the links below for the stuff I used in this video so you can do this job your self!

"..for the intake, but this one is going to be significantly more difficult to get to." I love it. Thanks for the great mechanical content, brother.

They sell new old stock O-Rings for the Big Red and 250SX, I bought a couple.

Its neat to see someone else with a three wheeler I let mine sit for 3 to 4 years and the only thing wrong with it was a dry rotted tire and a dirty carburetor

Just fyi. To find the compression stroke. Put your thumb over the spark plug hole. Turn the crank until it blows air against your thumb. The piston will be on the way up on compression stroke.

Isn’t that an 86? I see the two part heat shield. I thought that was only on the 86 and 87s.?

I did a new piston and rings like two months ago. It was running horrible. I took it to the dealership to get a valve adjustment. They got the bike running like decent again but now it’s blowing white smoke on start up and it sounds like there’s heavy, tick sound coming from the motor louder than normal. Any idea.

I have an 86 Honda big red and recently tried to use kickstart on it and it was just stuck…like wouldn’t move. I thought maybe a dropped a valve so I pulled the engine and disassembled. Valves were ok but while assembling realized that it got stuck again when I installed rocker arm-valve cover. Can a bad rocker arm cause that?
