Very nice what was the most difficult cosmetic you changed

Still have any of these plastics ?

Love your videos thank you

I noticed that as well when I went to buy it. I was assured it would work. So far, it's worked perfectly!

The new relay works great! Its rated at 6 V!? 🤔Well, it works so lets no look a gift horse in the mouth.😉👍

Morphous all the way but if the Helix was EFI it would be a tough call.

I would love to get some of those reflective tire stripes for my Helix. Could you reply with information? I also use Port-A-Wall white wall tire inserts. They both 10” and 12”. People comment on them quite often. I wish I could show you my Helix.

I do indeed respect your opinion. You should absolutely do things the safest way. I am very impressed with your respect for the Honda Helix. I can see you are more than capable of keeping your Helix ship/shape. Have you seen the recent video of two guys and their wives? They rode about 1000 or so miles going through the big Apple on this year’s 9/11. Adventure Daily is their channel.

😎👍

Thank you. A very thorough and most excellent review. Both of your Honda Elite's are prime examples. Do you have today? I found a clean 84 and 2010 for about the same price. I them both. How did the Doctor Pulley sliders workout? Thanks again.

Buen trabajo <<<- Good job - I like

I have a 1999 Helix, 11k miles. I am preparing to replace the drive belt and service whatever else needs to be done while I am in there. Your videos are fantastic! Thank you!

Hey mayn i just got a helix with 9,000 miles. Thanks for all you videos and its my reference to all the work i need to do. Especially stocking up on spare parts. Any suggestions on exhausts i want my bike to sound lower less ratty. Will dyno it too adjust fuel and air ratio

I found my 99 helix on Craigslist for $400, it was sitting for several years. No rodent damage, but the same heater hose damage, I think the plastic that covers it is rubbing the hose, how many feet of heater tube did you use, thanks

do you have a link for where you got that carburator, for the life of me i can't find a direct link

🔥

Well done! For sure the most complete and like new looking Helix I have ever seen. Got addicted to your videos. Cheers from Germany.

I have watched a Lot of Helix Videos on YTube since I bought my Helix two years ago. Constantly fixing issues, slowly getting there but lots of sleepless nights, totally scratched hand etc. Found out the hard way that preferring original Honda parts is the better way. (ebay petrol pump lastet 400kilometers). The Honda original part cost me 300 Euro but works perfectly. Sometimes it are the little things like a seal missing at the air filter box, with me not even realizing since there was none when I took it apart. New Airfilter got wet, water in the box and of course it would not pull properly when it sucked all the water up.. Or that little whining sound from the speedo. One could not hear it from the outside but sitting behind my new tinted SECDEM windscreen it would just amplify and sounded like a Stuka over Poland. Exchanged the speedo cable, then the taker on the front wheel. Took the whole speedo apart and found lots of very fine metallgrind on the mechanical number counter itself. Cleaned it, oiled it lightly, Sirensound gone. Things like that. It can cost a lot of nerves and money and days or weeks of nice summer weather I could not drive because I waited for parts. Bought it for 1300Euro but I guess it cost me another 3000Euro maybe more to get it up to scratch. Shot bearings, steel wheels sandblasted and freshly laquered, new brakes, replacing the totally worn out Carburetor with a Keihin etc. Special holder for the Carburetor so it's not shooting the Rubber-intake and so on. Just saying, buying it is one thing but if one likes things to work properly be prepared to spend time and money. On Google you find "Helixaner". A guy, somewhere here in Germany who has lots of lots of useful Helix Info's on his site. Mostly German, some things for download in English. Your Videos are fantastic! Because they are titled Elite I never saw them. Wish I had, would have saved me heaps of time and scratching my head!😂 Subscribed now. Kind regards from Germany.

Awesome job, learned a lot, just bought a 2014 Honda ruckus a month ago and had to replace parts too because it sat for 2 years out in the weather

Helix

Don’t be shy, tell us where you got these parts 😊

Don’t be shy, tell us where you got it! 😁

Love your videos! I recently got a 93 helix. I did my oil change I understand there's an oil gauge but I usually change by color. I live near the ocean, and have alot of experience with aviation. I do not trust the oil Guage oil is cheap enough to change it when it gets dark. Also I don't drive far or long on average 24 miles a day so I opted for 10w30 partly cause I ordered the wrong oil so I'm just going through the gallon oops 😬 i use the oil Guage for belt and cvt maintenance. On average though at least 350 miles my oil is dark so I take it out around that time. I've heard alot cn250s to Guage my motors health most sound shotty at best. I recommend people don't go by the oil Guage that probably yah their motors are running black oil by the time it even turns a little red. I'm looking into installing oil pressure sensor and oil quality sensor that are accurate in the filter. And this is a dream but it would awesome to have two cvt belts on both sides of the rear tire....😀 domzeet know what would happen but I'll try it with a Chinese scooter Also final verdict on oil... I read the manual throughly and it gives you the oil regulations for wide range of oil types depending on your environmental conditions due to out side temperature. And oil operating temps, with viscosity grades reminding you I live in a place that never snows coldest it gets is 60 degrees f. So 10w aren't my first choice it's being commonly recommended so I don't deviate from the experts. If I put a jet turbine in the trunk I wouldn't be surprised. Also looking into wankel motors with 50 hp that would fit

Nice !! Congratulations 🎊

Hey man any info or idea on why my tails don’t get bright when I brake . It’s on just not engaging with either brake ?

Subscribe now ! Or your honda bike will hate you

I’d love your advice: I pulled the bottom shock bolt and, while trying to break the axel nut, the shock arm isn’t lining up with the bottom hole. Is there a trick? Is compressing it necessary? I know this is a shot in the dark, but as much as I can rebuild a caliper I just can’t seem to figure this one out even though it seems so simple. FYI: I’ve watched a *lot* of youtube videos for mechanical advice over the last 10+ years. Yours is by far the best. You genuinely deserve a tv show. Your voice is also perfect at 2x speed.

can you please put a link to the website that you purchase the OEM parts from

😮I hope this is it! I have done everything I can think of! I will let you know 😅

Good video..

Morpheus is my best I have a 2004 modle very comfortable

Do you have the model number for the win power bulb?

I have 1984 Elite 125 that has about 1200 miles but needs some TLC. Where do you get your parts? Having a difficult time sourcing especially like turn signal assemblies and other body parts? Thank you

Thanks

Honda helix

Well good morning how are you today? I have a question my 84 Honda elite. The headlight is stuck open. Any advice on how to fix it

So I definitely understand the removal of the grease plate. I did that myself and follwed the same clean out procedure of the variator. Even put everything back in without any grease just as you did. For the rollers, though, I’ve heard it’s still best to at least use some graphite on them. Should I be leaving the rollers in there all dry? or should I consider putting graphite in there as a precaution?

Hey Im curious where did you find the OEM carburetor? Is there a part number for it? TY

I resurrected a gold one.. I'm slowly but surely replacing and changing most everything on it. it only took a few hours to get it running. Went through carb.. air filter.. plug. Even has alarm on it. Its fast.. and sturdy. Next fix is trans gaskets.. oil. Check everything in there.

Great video...thanks!!!!

love your attention to detail, the filming and editing. I also appreciate how you clean everything to look like new after you remove a part or parts. It drives me nuts to see others removing and reinstalling dirty, greasy parts!

I found your channel after buying a 86 Helix at the beginning of the summer and 3 weeks later I find myself with a Honda Big Ruckus that I have been trying to buy for a couple of years. Your comments about getting side tracked by buying more and more scooters hit home. Love your content and knowledge as it applicable to other Honda scooters. I have left the Helix to concentrate on getting the Big Ruckus engine running which is a big task as many hands and mice have been in this Honda orphan scoot. It is this challenge that makes it interesting.. Here in Canada the fuel line issue is a gas issue as ethanol has destroyed many a small engine and drove people to electric powered equipment. Happy 40 birthday to Ruby the Elite.

Your videos are very helpful to me with my Elites. I've got a red 85 CH250 now but over the years since 1984 i've owned all the Elite models 80,125,150 & 250 Helix and Reflex. Before the Elite's I had a Passport 70 and a Spree 50 These bikes always make me smile

What cleaning products do you use most for your helix?

What was new carb you put on?

I need to make a new key what is the code for it please is ita4L0D66 I have the exact same one I lost my key

I have a 2004 helix and the variator seems to be stuck. Like something is bolted behind. Any ideas to help get this out?

How many miles honda recommend before oil change

awesome video thank you so much just bought an 06

Bought a non-running 2001 Helix about a month and a half ago. I’ve been slowly going through it and your videos have been, not only incredibly helpful, but also quite inspirational. Your Helix turned out phenomenal! Thanks for the slow meticulous delve into a really cool bike.
