  • Join me this week as I give my viewers what they have been asking for and I buy not 1 but 2 pit bikes that have been abandoned out doors for over a year and see if I can get them running or not!

    Aliexpress is the way forward with these, i rebuilt a lot of a suzuki 125 from aliexpress.

    The frame isn't snapped , that looks to me like theres bolts though the lugs that have sheared , thats a good price for 2 runners

    • @SamsAutoAssortium
      @SamsAutoAssortium  3 дня назад

      Yeah after doing a bit of research that's exactly what's happened but I think someone's tried to weld it back on which is why it looks snapped off on one part 😅

  • @justinwhite3439
    @justinwhite3439 3 дня назад +1

    Amazing they both at least started. Imagine if they had been looked after. They are actually decent bikes. No point using 1 to fix the other as they wont have many parts in common, they will likely have the same bits broken and parts are easy and cheap to get. Fix both of them..... Just a note on your camera work. You need to practice looking the camera, not the screen. It always looks like you are looking the other way

    • @SamsAutoAssortium

      Thanks I'll try and work on that it's still all a bit of a learning curve for me 😅 yeah since filming I've been looking g at parts and they seem to be pretty cheap so I'll most likely just fix both using new parts 🤟

    Hey Sam, I’ll give you a good tip a mate gave me many years ago. Get yourself a milk crate, lean the bike right over and kick the milk crate under it, tip/pull the bike up right and it’ll sit on the milk crate nice and stable both wheels will be off the ground so perfect for brakes, chain etc etc and it’s free just knock off a couple of milk crate from behind a shop 🤣

    At the price you payed, I would fix both. The is enough room to buy a few parts. And still make a few quid.

    • @SamsAutoAssortium
      @SamsAutoAssortium  3 дня назад

      I'll be fixing both for sure but I'll most likely use the stomp to fix the WPB then sell that and fix the stomp using new parts or at least that's what I think my plan of attack is 🤔😅

  • @AlanHadlington

    Repair both of them parts are very cheap for theses with the frame looks like a bolt has snapped in the frame drill and tap bolt out then just put a new bolt in ive restored many pitbikes in the past u had a bargain for both well done

    • @SamsAutoAssortium
      @SamsAutoAssortium  2 дня назад

      Thanks 🤟 I think fixing both is the way to go after I had a look around for parts I realised how cheap they should be to fix so that's going to be the way forward 👍👍

  • @kod81
    @kod81 3 дня назад +1

    The frame should be just bolted on, so hopefully its just a snapped bolt that you might be able to extract then re tap to a new thread. Good luck

    • @SamsAutoAssortium
      @SamsAutoAssortium  3 дня назад

      Thanks! I thought that's how they attached but it looks like someone attempted to weld it back on so may need a bit of tidying up with a grinder too but I'm looking foreward to getting stuck into it either way 🤟

  • @stephenr6427

    • @SamsAutoAssortium
      @SamsAutoAssortium  3 дня назад

      Thanks, im glad you have faith in my abilities 🤟🤣 I think doing both is the way forward but I think I'll probably make one decent one, sell it and then use that money to make a mint one of of the 2nd one, im not 100% sure yet but I think it will make for better content that way maybe 🤔
