    Hi guys! Thanks for tuning in... This week I put together a video of the time I had on my motorcycle adventure with Agents 8771 and 533 last week! I purchased a 1968 Yamaha over the phone and had some troubleshooting to do before we could get on the road and see if it would stay together for a 200-mile loop through the mountains... The "RockyMountain MotoGiro" is an annual event in the tradition of the Italian motorcycle road races of the early 20th century... Lots of fun and great people!
    Anyone interested can contact Jim at rockymountainmotogiro@gmail.com
    Thanks so much to everyone who ordered a 1937 Chevy T-shirt, they are all shipped now, so watch the mail!
    Hope you enjoyed the 8mm clips! I am filming more on the 8mm camera and I'll include the footage as soon as I get it developed... Special thanks to Steve Dean and Niagara Film Labs in Toronto.

    Fantastic episode!!! No one here is complaining about seeing a last minute resto of a 68' Yami tested on a 200-mile rally through the Canadian Rockies with it all in one episode. What other maniac does that with just as crazy helpers!? Life while riding a bike on the edge of death. That's the art of living.

    @thorsbyguy5121 4 месяца назад +6

    A "Burt Munro-esque" adventure Scott! I'm pretty impressed with your ring building results. In the book "The Diesel Odyssey of Clessie Cummins", there's a long-ish section about Clessie's struggle to get proper diesel rings made. He pretty quickly found out it didn't work well enough to carve off a slice of round cast tube, because the resulting ring needed to be compressed into the cylinder to have sufficient side tension, making it out of round and resulting in a poor sealing fit. His solution was to carve some slices of pipe, then compress a small stack of such rings to their desired tension and end gap in a fixture, then turn the fixtured rings to the desired finished diameter. He was assisted in this development by his friend Ralph Teetor, whose family would incorporate what they learned with Clessie and found the The Indiana Piston Ring Company in 1919, later known as Perfect Circle.

    The thumbnail with the beard flying back around Scott's neck is hilarious. I'm imagining it was pretty tangled by the time the ride was over. Nursing an old scoot home with pistons slapping in the bores, one missing point contact, and improvised home-made rings is right on-brand for CWM.

    Oh, man! You brought me back with those motorcycle to the time I had an Italian Garelli moped. Beautiful dark blue and white paint job! Single speed with an auto clutch - some weird Italian bullshit made from rubber that slipped like mad. With my fat derriere on top, I had to pedal like a bicycle to get it going because otherwise it wouldn't. But once it was rolling, it would happily reach 70 km/h, screaming and fumigating for mosquitoes, and with me leaning down over the handlebars. Good times.

    Simply Amazing to cut and harden a set of rings for this Moto.
    Also love the roadside repairs and the breaker points fix.
    Any Road trip Adventure is good for the Soul and judging by the other bikes you were right in place!

    Years ago I did a 70 miler on my Suzuki 125 with a group of friends in the Sierra Nevada. One of the best trips ever. Thanks for the ride.

    What a pleasant surprise ! Absolutely beautiful bike rally with spectacular visuals. Wow cutting your own rings out of a pipe .It thinking like that that took us to the moon ! I'm reminded how I take things for granted .Here in ND we have "The Tail of The Dragon" which is up in the blue ridge..

    Fantastic video! The homemade piston rings blew me away, never have seen something like that. Kudos to your determination and getting it to happen Scott.

    Love the Yamaha 2 strokes. I hope to attend this rally again next year. I am inspired to get my own little tiddler. There is a real nice 180 near to me. I should just buy it! Great episode and thanks!

    Nice change of pace and it's nice to see you getting away from the yard for some much needed R&R. Beautiful country with great views I must say that I'm a little jealous.. great video once again thank you for sharing Scott. cheers

    "Well, it's a motorcycle episode, darn!" ... Then I watched it all. Great show. Your buddy's "Orange Whip" shirt - That would be a good name for the bike. (At least it looked orange.)

    An enjoyable departure from the normal CWM format and beautiful scenery to go with the beautiful vintage bikes. Thanks Scott for the home made piston rings segment! Human ingenuity at its best and it obviously worked well. Like Mike Rowe said in an old Ford commercial a few years ago, it's great when a plan comes together. And I'll add tongue in cheekly, especially if the plan wasn't planned but adlibbed! And it turned out enjoyable and entertaining for us, too. Onward, all...
