    This is the video we've been waiting so long for. Of course your have to fix the whole dang thing. That's why we watch you. You have to get into the case, replace the broken parts with donor parts, start working on some other part of the bike that's not up to par, run into another huge problem, find another donor part on Craigslist, drive two hours to pick it up while Camera Girl knits something sitting on the passenger seat, you make jokes, she laughs.............a few videos later you do the first ride. That's how the universe works. Let's do this.

      Also... Often a broken kick starter is not from a heavy foot... but a motor firing in REVERSE. If it is badly tuned and fires on the back of TDC, it can fire in reverse and as the kick starter is engaged, drive the kick-starter back into its stop and hilarity ensues... usually ending with the lever being ejected from the case.

I'm 45 and have been riding dirt bikes and street bikes from my earlier years and young youth. I am now trying and loving fixing my own problems. I always do my own maintenance but always stop there lol. Now I'm fixing my mower ,weed eater, car window, and bikes! All because your love of machines and the knowledge you have even if you don't always have the Factor tool or specks lol. I have already saved money all because of the confidence you have and impart to us.
    Thanks for what you do and we will keep watching 😁.

    @Jennies Garage , I bought a non running 2004 yz450f about a month ago. Sat for years with fuel in it that completely turned to muck like what you had. I cleaned the carb, or so I thought, and got the bike running, but poorly. Very similar to you wear it wouldn't immediately bog upon throttle. You need to take the screws out at the bottom of the float bowl out, and venture inside the inner passage ways of the carb. Those inner O-rings are for sure all swelled up, and falling apart and clogging the vital passage ways to let air in. My next door neighbor owns a moto shop, and I went with him and took the whole thing apart. Do this, and see what ya find in there. New O-RINGS and clean clean jets will make it run like a champ. Other than that, keep up the good work!
