over the years of Kawasaki copying itself.. they have built renditions of the Zs and KZs let the famous Eddie Lawson campaigned in the superbikers series .. and year before last the Eddie Larson replica was the most beautiful Kawasaki I've ever seen.. but right now I cannot tell you or show you or type you any reference to what I'm talking about because Google AI has decided for me that I don't need to see anything older than 1983.. have you ever find this recent version doesn't look like anything from the past.. but it is painted in the traditional stripes and all Kawasaki green except it's a pearl green that sparkles add close up and the factory quarter race fairing is old school British Ace Cafe.. around 900 cc's.. what's today's average performance for a rice rocket that size. But that's all I can remember of the specs as Google will not let me see a picture of it.. but I can only get the real super bikers bikes ready to race better butt ugly.. light Freddy Spencer's Honda 1100 super sport Anna Wes Cooley's GS1000 all roller bearing crank blue and white half bearing with working gauges in it... But this latest Eddie Lawson replica is a game changer.. and when I was stealing a picture of it did Chuck who works kind of as a parts manager sales representative service writer for screamin eagle stages and the man who will twist your arm to force you to sign the work order for stage 4 after you buy the brand new bike
I showed him the Eddie Lawson and he froze for a moment and said I've got to have that bike.. 2 years ago I believe they were in the 12ish price range. And as it's been driven out of the showroom and find a used one that's over 2 years old may start to get closer to our price range that will never get to the magical prices the gold wings have came to as you can buy a used one 4 Bangor fully loaded running 4 round 300 bucks now. The gold ring you showed us at barracuda Harley that was the sale of the day brand new cost $5,000 more than a Harley now it's worth $5,000 cheaper than a used Harley and a brand new Yamaha r1 that all the kids love to brag about next to Harley as the Harley is it slow piece of s***cost 2x more than their rice rocket ... Not anymore , price the 2024 Yamaha R1m .. we are north of CVO prices
I was foaming at the mouth for the past few days awaiting the next installment of the Southern Savant and the Bearded Babbler
Joe is AWESOME! Sir, you should be teaching. Loving the shirts!
I really like these Ran When Parked Videos. Joe is a great teacher.
Thank you Dave!! I greatly appreciate the thoughts 👍
Josh, no shit brother... Your channel is one of the best on youtube. Your generosity, your honesty, you sharing all the info you do and you being you, is always a pleasure to watch. I mean gaddamn hell, you got me back in the saddle and made me get my bike 4 years ago and the memories since are unforgettable! Many thanks and man, you often mention the bad person doing good things 😉, the world would much better place if everyone did a fraction of what you do. I would love to get piss drunk with all a y'all one day! lol
Kind words my friend, I appreciate the support!! Nothing makes me happier than getting someone into or back into riding :)
8:12 Joe is the Encyclopedia Britannica of 2 wheeled machines!!!!
I'm a fountain of useless information 🤣
I could watch these videos all day long. Joe is incredible!
Joe the mountain Jedi and the bearded Mechanic can make any old non running bike run like new.
Now THAT sounds like a challenge I'd be willing to take on!!!
@The_Bearded_Mechanic 👀
I will never again say a ailing motorcycle needs T-L-C. Anything with two wheels that needs a little J-O-E !!!! No matter your trade or your skill set you got to give that man respect what an absolute magician and wealth of knowledge. Loving this series love everything you do Josh. Keep it weird boys
Any video with Joe in it definitely gets a thumbs up from me! Dude knows his stuff!!!
Joe is amazing. Love the videos. Keep them coming
Ahhh! It's always good to hear a machine come to life after a long sleep.
Joe proves that a southern accent does not preclude a sharp mind. I could listen to him talk bikes at length.
Hey man, I may have come to town on the turnip truck, but I made damned good and sure I rode in on the front seat!!😁
My vote is to add a carb rebuild video from Joe. He's a realistic and genuine guy who knows a lot that can only come up in the moment and that info is incredible to have
Pretty cool seeing Joe dial that bike in. Continue the Ran when parked and continue Joe's Flashy shirts
Joe reminds me of a guy I knew years ago working at a marina that was an OMC guru. People from the factory called him for info
I'm n the cusp of believing.. 5 or 6 more miracles and ill be convinced Joe the mountain Jedi knows motorcycles.
This series is really teaching HUGE amounts of great knowledge. Thanks, Joe, Josh, and crew!
Starts in under a second, and has an almost instantaneous throttle response....Nice work Joe!
Josh, this series is a genius idea, brother.
Thanks
You are leaving a great motorcycle legacy behind with these series!
I could listen to you guys talk about bikes all day
Never thought I’d say it; Mondays, my fav day of the week.
This is the content we need I don’t mind listening to you rant and you ride shaking your fist but this stuff is what I’m here for
I'm a huge fan of this series, Joe is the GOAT!
Always loved those old Kawai monster 900's. Great to see you guys treating a cool old muscle bike with the respect it deserves.
Wait till next week.....you'll see some "respectful operation"😁
FINALLY!! Something to look forward to on a Monday night!
J&J what a duo on an honorable mission there! Perfect blend of know how and entertainment.
Thanks Sammy!!!!... Glad you enjoyed it, and I hope I helped you learn something 👍
It always makes me happy when an old motorcycle gets woken up from a long sleep.
Yeah, me too......
I hate to think of how many iconic bikes over the years have been left to rot😡
"Happy-happy, joy-joy!" I like watching Joe do his thing, especially on a bike that I had a hardon for as a youngster. I still want a ZL900. Now, I'll know what to look for if I pick one up. Thanks, Fellers!
👍👍👍👍👍
Josh! This is grade A stuff!
Joe!!! 100%
Motorcycle genius!
Nah no debate rotella is where its at. No issues on the multiple bikes ive ran it through. My step dad has a shop been saying the same stuff for years.
That man is a fount of knowledge !
I like this new segment, even if it's 'only a Kwakkiezakkie'(load from a scrotum)😁 Kawi, kawi made of tin, ride it out and push it back in. That's my kind of humor.
I love this series.
After the initial video, I first had all the pleasant memories, then remembered that this is the bike that taught me a big lesson. NEVER lend your bike to a mate! I would still have mine now if I had not done that. I have looked at getting another one a few times over the years but here in the UK you only seem to find parts.
15:37
I REMEMBER that sound! That's a real snot monster ya got there!
JOE OE ! ! HE`s OUR MAN ! IF HE CAN`T Get It Running NO ONE Can ! ! KEEP IT WEIRD ! !
All I've ever used in my motorcycles is rotella. Started off with T4 and now with my 2012 voyager, I'm using T6 synthetic
That's what I'm running in my 14 voyager; t6 15w40
@@h_meesh it's hard to beat the price for something that works so darn well. $23 for oil to do an oil change versus $70. And you still get all the same benefits, if not more.
18:21 is the biggest nerdchanic (nerdy mechanic) flex I've ever seen from Joe.
#mechanicsfidgetspinner
Aced it again gentlmen keep the old bikes living well done joe you're a legend
That dude is a genius.
Love this !!!!! Joe your the MAN !!!!
Joe has the voice for old school how to movies you used to watch in school. Damn fellas. This series... super fine. I was one of those older subs that was for the bikes and the mechanics and not the wimmin and shenanigans etc. This is back on point for me. I dont want you to change just super happy you got some content that I feel that if a random woman saw me watching she would shake her head out of disappointment rather than rage. And... I watched this before the first one. Goddamn. Its like the star wars series yet this time the prequel will be better.
Lol, well.....
Brace yourself for "episode VI" next week 😉
@@JoeTheMountainJedi so the return of the jedi ? where has he been ? :D
More Joe please. This was great
Appreciate old school talent and knowledge! Kick ass bike too!
Thank you on both counts!!
I've watched the two so far and they are brilliant. Educational and funny as fvck . You know someone is good at their job when they make it look so easy
Glad you're enjoying the series, and I appreciate you taking the time to watch!!
This is a fantastic series and an even better series title.
Joe, the mountain Jedi as Dr Frankenstein with the work, this dude can do.
Thank you Shadetree for bringing us Joe! Such a wealth of knowledge and a pleasure to watch. Just another reason to stay tuned in to Shadetree Army…
Brap star Joe the mountain Jedi button shirts I will buy three of them!!!!!!!!!!!!
These episodes I great love the no bull, honest and fun it looks like you guys have
I had 74 Vega brake pads on my 79 GS750L because, at the time, you could find those for $10 at the wrecker and they fit but the Suzuki pads were $40.
my friend had one of these. I had a Kawasaki ex 500. Ahh the good old days!
Thank you both for creating these videos.Truly a joy to watch.
Thanks for taking the time to watch!!... Hope it was worth the time, and hope you may have learned something 👍
really enjoyed the content with joe the mountain jedi! definitely be someone id love to pick his brain with motors lol always went to my industrial maintenance class earlier than usual just for that reason. that guy has 40 plus years in the field i was studying in!
I know first hand you can make these bikes fire breathers. Carbs cams port the head and its a monster
We "may" get there eventually with the ZiL...... budget (or lack thereof) is the limiting factor, unfortunately 😅
Got to say I've enjoyed watching these collabs, it's always awesome watching someone truly skilled beyond the pale. Joe is a national treasure.
This is awesome! There are not a lot of videos with so much detail when doing fixes/rebuilds. I don't think any provide so much info on all the repairs and history, subscribed to patreon as well, waiting for more!
You have to respect a Jedi with a manometer. Great video guys.
Man can't wait to see the road test. Really glad you guys started this one.
Love this new channel. Looking forward to more!
That was awesome! You guys are way better than OCC or West Coast Choppers ever were. And a Josh, you are a wordsmith with your quite juicy monologues. Hats off to Joe for some excellent hands on work !
Love this guy my first bike was a fzr 600 love learning tricks and hacks from old heads there the best to learn from I’m restoring a zrx1200 and the master tech where I work use to build them and Ive learned so many hidden tricks the guys back then just know how to build badass old piss rockets!
loved this video. I rode a 1975 KAW H1 Mach 3 from 75-80. Suprised I lived...go fast in a straight line, just don't try and turn :D
Thank you for the oil tip!
Sorry I missed the premiere!!! It was a tough Monday on the grind!!! Army!!!! 0:53
Really appreciate you and Joe making this series! Really lit my fire to get working on my old GPz again and gave me some helpful tips as well! Looking forward to the next episode.
I'm loving this series boys. Most recent carb fun I had was my 96 Honda ST1100 "project" bike that became my current daily ride.
Good on ya man!!!.... Mack when they first came out, my dad was half a breath away from buying a st, but he went with the venture royale instead.....
If he only knew what kind of doors that bike opened me up to.......😍
The ST1100 is an under estimated all rounder. It's my bad weather bike as well. It shares the shed with a Harley, Triumph and Victory. You truly do meet the worst people on a Honda 😎
Its the best show on RUclips! Love It
Gotta be my favorite episodes on the channel right now!
If you like this, you're gonna LOVE what we have lined up for the future!!
Josh this a great series. Can’t wait to see it on the street. You guys take care and ride safe. Almost forgot I got my shirts the other day love them.
Fantastic work, Fellers! I learned some good things from Joe. Thanks!
That thing sounds like a straight up ripper. Awesome
Lol ....
You'll get to hear it next week 😉
mountain jedi is one smart feller .. great video 👍
Really cool to see you get it running. Sounds great. Good vid
Your beginning montage was wonderful! Keep up all your great work. And I love the v65 content as I have an 85 1100 dad bought it new in 85 and I still love it.
He's good no kidding that manknows his shit...
I ride a 2011 vaquero
Most reliable bike I’ve owned. Also one of the best riding too
Smoke them m8s all day too
This week I’m getting a 2013 cross country as well
Fantastic yet again! Love it! You guys seem to have found the magic sauce for both informative and entertaining. Excellent stuff!
There are tons of channels out there that do “will it run” videos but none of them are as knowledgeable as Joe is or do half as good a job explaining everything. I am definitely going to head over to his Patreon
I appreciate it Mike!!👍
You do a superb job on this channel all around one of the best
21:24 Joe with the T-Rex in Margarita Ville Hawaiian shirt on is legendary!!!!
Thank you brother!!!.... Gotta keep things interesting!!
Nice vid. The synchronising has the biggest effect on idle quality and very light throttle inputs like pootling around town at 2500rpm but that is exactly when you need delicate throttle control.
Once the engine is working harder using mid throttle (= running on the needles) or full throttle openings (= running on the fully opened jets) the synchronisation is not really very important any more. But how often do you go full throttle? That's right. Hardly ever and only for short bursts.
Well synchronised carbs give the creamy smooth power delivery at low revs.
Nice job!
I really enjoy these video's with Joe, thanks !!
Glad I could put out something worth watching man!!!
Check back next Monday.....things are getting weird!!
These videos are a great idea 👍
I totally forgot about the monday RWP episode lol; good stuff as always though! "Joe's the guy that knows"
Love the content, it keeps people interested in fixing their bike
Always fix.....
NEVER replace!!!
Thank you guys again for making these vids! When I watch the Mountain Jedi fix the front forks, I reckon I'm gonna buy some parts and give it a go on mine.
Stay tuned, that's coming shortly!!( Along with a few low-cash methods to improve what you have for suspension WITHOUT spending megabucks!!)
Awesome video guys... I have to say Joe is one hell of a mechanic... 👍👍👍
Thank you sir.....you gotta enjoy what you do, or it's just a job!
Rotella, the KLR loves it. Great video
HOWdy S-T-S, & JOE the Mountain JEDI
Joe is quite the WORD-SMITH !
Thanks

Joe's the real deal
Sounded righteous, guys!
If ever in CT. You should visit Kaplan's shop and museum. Its a pretty cool place.
Super helpful stuff to learn for a noob
great history.
joe the Mountain Jedi's is like the Alan Watts of motorcycle Zen...
Great content
Damn the pair of you! You two have this sixty something actually waiting for, anticipating, looking forward to the next chapter of this story. A goddam swamp wizard video series has me actually eagerly awaiting the next release.....a frikkin video....
another fine presentation!😎👏
Absolutely love this series! As someone with more projects in garage than I can finish I am learning some skills that might help me
