The 125 DESERVES a rebuild! That thing has an incredible will to live!
John fits right in the 80s with Jean jacket the jeans the mullet and the Honda three wheeler
Was just gonna say "the 80's called, they want your buddy back"...lol.
@@mgmnfld3109 all he needs now is a portable cassette player! 😂
John looks like a young Gallagher. I mean, it's SPITTING!
You think I'm silly ? Still gonna send it
John looks like it should’ve been in the movie fast Times at Ridgemont high
I put down a lot of miles on my 3 wheelers, All Hondas.
People always said they were dangerous, I said "so are chainsaws".
My kids got more injured on our higher power quads than they ever did on our old 185 three wheelers with no suspension.
Any machine is dangerous if your careless. I lost a tooth of the windshield of my 1971 ski whiz only because I had slippery shoes on, and hit a bump.
@@nybergsgarage I know how that feels, I have elans.
@@stevenwithanS ever charged towards a deep drift you think you can go over, only to smoosh into it and get tossed through the windshield? Fun times on vintage sleds!
I loved mine until I broke it in half, well the frame snapped below the tank. A little steal plating and a welder it was fine.
Next Halloween u two should go as Darryl hall and John oats 😂😂😂
Abbott and Costello
Best comment here!
Or Weird Al.
I notice there’s still one more atc in the back of Kevin’s truck. Hope we can see a video on that soon. 3 wheeler content will never get old
Just wait until you guys see the shed
@@JunkyardDigs Presumably at least 20 I’m guessing.
Probably more. Kevin’s dream is to own all of the three wheelers
ATV ******************************************************* ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐
I seen what hes been up to over on Honda Hoarders so waiting for it here... lol
I honestly kind of want these two to come back again.
I want to see the damage to the 125, and kind of want to see how they perform with rebuilt engine and fixed trans.
I don’t think either is worth the money to do this, but I’m curious anyways.
Dude I can definitely tell when someone is a three wheeler expert. There’s just a look you get.
"you can hear the rod knock, its a honda, its fine"
My Recon sounds like its knocking. In reality it's valve train noise. They have to be adjusted from time to time.
I think Fortnine's point was exactly what you said in the video, though - they're dangerous _if you don't know what you're doing_, and they were being sold to people who didn't.
Super impressed by the stamina of the 125. I didn't think that it would start again. Definitely gutless..but running
I'm jealous of John's hair/mustache combo.
Screams 1980’s hilarious
John, aka Dirk Diggler.
Same.
so is Ron Jeremy
@@cobramike13bravo63 jon homes aka dirk Diggler
or the wonderland murders fame
Frank Zappa took mooks place this episode it looks like lol
you sure tha'ts not weird Al
That's where the doggies go dont you eat that yellow snow
Hahaha. I was thinking Frank Zappa Too! 👍🇺🇸
Soo much fun!
Says many times “if your dumb you will get hurt on these machines.” Proceeds to get hurt on the machines. Brilliant. 👌
Your friend looks like Weird Al, all he needs to make it complete is some glasses.
I was thinking more Gallagher. Needs a giant hammer tho
I thought it was Larry Enticer from the thumbnail, haha!
Don't insult John like that! What did he ever do to you? 😂
4:35 don’t ever put your foot down! Do doughnuts by leaning. I’ve seen so many people run their leg over and run themselves over doing that.
I’ve never thought I’d see Weird Al get totaled by a 3 wheeler. Until today 😎
The 70's called, they want John back.
if thats how he wants to look fuck it. im glad hes being who he wants to be instead of following these retarded trends. its better than the man bun or these carefully shaved sides with the pile of hair on top lmao
Hell no. His Canadian Tuxedo and business in the front party in the back style works for me. I'm going to check out his channel.
I actually thought it was Weird Al at first.
@@MrSEANDEERE ...
The "Rip In Time" Man
I’m guessing the adult entertainment industry specifically.
I remember snowmobiling back in the 80s one night in Minnesota. After 60 miles and 6 hours of riding my Arctic Cat died a few miles from home at 1am. We left it and rescued it the next day.. This gives me flashbacks. You guys rock.
What ended up being the issue with it though?
Froze up. There was water in the fuel. Couple that with extreme cold and the fact it was a rotary motor on its last legs, you get the expected result.
At 9:45 john definitely got smacked in the head by the front tire but he tried to play it off 😂
11:34 Of all the possible "dismounts" I could have imagined would have happened at this stage... you stepping off the trike on to a speeding treadmill was not one of them! 😂🤣😂 You are definitely giving Jacob's epic dismount off the moped a run for his money.
I've owned 3 wheelers for years. Here's a stunt you might want to try. Get going, and get the 3 wheeler on two wheels, right or left, then hammer it and pull a wheelie on one of those back tires. Now your riding, one wheel wheelie!!! When you can do this, you have balance!!!
John’s looking so much like Brad Delp, I’m fully expecting him to break out in “More Than A Feeling”💯💯😂🤣
If he puts on a cap, he looks like Derek from Vice Grip Garage.
The other one.
John's impression of the 125 dying is the best thing ive ever heard
When I was 10 years old I flipped end over end on an ATC 70 blacked out for 3 minutes and have been hooked every since. I have owned 50 of them in my life, favorite being 350x.
Thanks guys. Need more Mook comic relief!! She's hilarious.
Honda's NEVER die, at the worst they just take a nap
Couple things...one, John looks like a 70's/80's rock star of the Album Rock variety and I mean that in a very complimentary way. Two, when you guys are cutting donuts, you are displaying a fantastic example of 3d-vectors in play. Here's a bit of trivia that blew my mind when I first heard it. When you're rolling a wheel on a surface, at the contact point between the wheel and the surface, the wheel is at a dead stop. There, it has transferred all of its torque, all of its energy, into the surface. When you guys are spinning on the ice, the energy is attempting to move you forward, but you're altering the vector by shifting your weight and direction and changing its angle, this causes angular velocity, although still at the contact point, the wheel is at a dead stop.
It’s not just the ATCs that have transmission issues. Thankfully my family got me a year of Civic that didn’t have that issue and I daily it. Yes it still works. Good ol’ Honda reliability. Plus I think I know what was wrong with that 125. The shift drum stopper’s shot.
Likewise my CRV. Had it for over two years. Cost me around £600, has covered over 20k miles in that time and has been up, down and across country more times than I can remember. Love Honda and their fabulous engines
Mine's had a blown head gasket for about 3 years it finally got so bad that it had so much water in the oil pan, changed the head and the gasket and it's still running.
I did the John flip with two of my little brothers on with me (one in front, one in back). Managed to not get anyone killed. I can't believe that any of these are still running after the stuff we did to them back in the day. As for the whole 3-wheelers are dangerous thing....my worst wrecks were on 4-wheelers.
That 125 deserves a rebuild, what a trooper
You're on to something with the stability of the bigger ATCs. The parents always threw the smaller and more inexperienced kids on the smaller bikes. The big kids would ride circles around us while we were getting tossed off and flipping all over the place. This looked like noobs at work and probably caused a lot of injuries, but it was mostly just the heavy, tippy and underpowered machines.
John just looks like the sidest sidekick that has ever sidekicked. His Name should just be Sidekick John.
i know a guy with a 1950s international pickup truck 50,000 miles. has sat since early 90s in southern illinois
Would be great to see some international not everybody revive them
I have a 49 international. It used to be my grandpas. Hopefully I’ll get it running this summer
I have a huge scar on my arm where my Honda 200S tried to kill me when I was 16. The problem as you said is driving beyond limits. Unfortunately a 3 wheeler does not give you a lot of warning when you've passed its limit until too late and its nimbleness inspires false confidence. I had ridden multiple times a week for about a year. One day a gravel corner I normally slide around in 4th for some reason I went 5th without realizing. By the time I realized I had too much speed I was committed to the corner bit it was trying to top. I tried to pull wide but couldn't do it and ended up hitting the fence beside the road. Flew off and bounced off the fence. Ripped up my shirt on barbed wire, and I bounced off. Landed on my feet. Shredded upper arm, and a splinter in my nose from the fencepost (extremely close call), but otherwise fine. I was very lucky.
Would like to see an engine rebuild on that small Honda, saw mustie1 but some jb weld on a worn cylinder then honed it smooth. Would be cool at see if it would give the lil honda more power!
Is that a freedom mullet on John 😆 🤣
Those 125s and 110s make fantastic power plants for go carts. Wait... now there's an idea for an episode!!
Hey Mook, you want to go out on the ice on the old three wheelers?
Heck no! Are you hecking crazy? Why the heck would I do that? Heck you!
Everytime he uploads an video my boredom gets cured
Loved it. When she came back from the dead to make it out of the river bank, that was the highlight.
I grew up on a Honda ATC 90. One of the first ones they made. And Im still alive. And I was 11 years old when I got on one for the first time. That 90 locked up 3 times I believe from lack of oil. And after adding oil and letting her cool down she pulled hard for the first few pulls and Back to running like a champ. There alot of fun. LOLYiur video brought back alot of great memories...Also the 90 I had also floated . The rim and tire was molded into one. And as long as you didnt get on it it would float right across the water. Out ran a few cops back in the day going across the creeks and river...LMAO...
Awesome video.... you looked to have a blast! A friend had two 200's he got new. They were so much fun..... I enjoyed ridding them more that the dirt bikes or quads. We beat the hell out of them, they went threw everything..... extremely rugged machines!
I had a 200x. I miss that trike. It was somewhat fast, and was actually able to climb Oldsmobile Hill in Glamis, California...albeit somewhat slowly. I had a narrow racing tire up front and low profile sand/mud tires on the back.
I would like to see you guys take out that old Honda engine give a tune-up on a little bit love and the one three wheeler you are using for parts I think I'll be real fun to see you do a Frankenstein engine you know you know engine that you're not supposed to put in but still fits
The new noise that went away during the hill climb at 11:25, was the starter engaging and then disengaging while the motor is running.
We gotta see a tear down of that engine & transmission now!
As soon as I saw you bought three wheelers I knew it was going to make for some great footage- Josh
Kevin you have to do a rebuild on the old guy it deserves it. It earned the respect for starting again and making it home. Maybe on the other one see if you can find a carb to replace the junk one.
More lockdown relief , thanks Kevin .👍 oh yeah really enjoyed Johns first vid . Always good to have more to watch .
Would love to see a teardown vid of that 125, see how bad a honda can be and still go
That 125 needs a rebuild video! I want to see that thing run like it came out of the factory 😁
I’m from Alabama and every time I see a video of people riding in the snow I get amazed because We ain’t used to the cold here and taking the garbage out in 40 degree weather WITH warm clothes on still makes my nose stop up and makes me feel about sick.
Everytime I watch one of your videos I find myself searching craigslist...
Who's Craig? And what's on this list of his?
Just subscribed, I love 3 wheelers have a few of them myself. This made me want to get my other ones running and go play as well. I used to live up northern Missouri where there is lots of snow and frozen rivers but not anymore but is cool to see you guys enjoying it.
Wow lol Omg! That was awesome! Never thought that 125 would ever run again. I did see though at the end it was not only smoking but it sure was shiting itself all over your driveway LOL
This brings back memories. I use to have a 1983 ATC 200x that I'd rip around in the snow. Great video.
What a fun episode. :) Thanks for taking the time to film you guys letting off some steam and enjoying yourselves!
This made me laugh, particularly John saving the 125 rolling with his face :-) Great video!
John on a 3 wheeler. Reminds me of Dennis Hopper in the movie Easy Rider .
Oh yeah that's some good smoke on the 125. I say it all the time, if you lubricate the fire, it slides out the exhaust valve easier and it makes more power. Glad to see somebody else knows. Plus as long as it's still smoking, you know you have oil. Double win.
I believe smoke from the head gasket is acting as an extra exhaust to help increase flow through the engine, also good for power
One of your best videos ever !! Really enjoyed this !! Cool the way you guys fix up old machines and make them.live again !!!
Just a reminder that it’s the little things in life! How awesome 2 left for dead 3 wheelers so much fun. Awesome video hopefully there’s more
This was a rad revival and good subtle humor and voiceover. Dig it 😆
I’ve not experienced as much suspense in a long time when you were trying to fire that 125 at the river entrance 😂 absolutely legendary machines
Been looking forward to this episode awesome work @Junkyard Digs
Wow! You got to go three wheeling with Weird Al!
I really needed to see someone having fun on an ATV. I was laughing the whole time! Thanks for the fun Kevin and John.
It's an ATC lol
@@logansmith105 I know that. But an ATV is an All Terrain Vehicle. ATC just means All Terrain Cycle. Right?
i agree, ryan and the fortnine channel is one of the best channels ever, bar none. not just youtube, but on any visual media period. the episode with the motorized bicycle was simply epic. my boy has over a dozen of these honda three wheelers, from stock 90's, to a race ready 250. him, his wife and his three boys love riding them. i've got childhood issues with them(cornfield deathtrap near death experience, 'nuff said), so i got a 230 suzuki quad to ride with them. old hondas never die, they just live on as a donormobile.
"What a triumphant story." Well said. I truly enjoyed every minute of this video. Please give that ol 125 a bit of work. It deserves it.
really liked seeing an adventure like this...the restores are super fun but it was cool seeing em do work after
That was an awesome vid! Thanks for sharing. Makes me want to find one of these old 200’s.
You and Doug Henning are breaking out three wheelers. Totally rad
That looked like so much fun took me back to my youth. YAY till the next one
I was actually hesitant to watch the video, but thoroughly enjoyed it. Man that looked like fun! Great vid, Kevin and John!
I love stuff like this. And I also think it’s funny the only thing I’ve ever seen you fix inside 😂 your always in a field somewhere doing resurrections. Great times.
They need to bring three wheelers back!
In '82 when I was 12 I had a '82 Honda ATC 200. I LOVED that bike and I never had any problems riding it. Also my early '90's mullet is jealous of John's...lol
Excellent video :) that amazing how exciting also these 3 wheeler keep going for sure and work so well too!
12:19 i love how educational this is lmao
@6:05 to 6:20 very true words about the three wheelers! Love mine, '86 ATC 125M got it free sitting in some pine trees!
Oh, that looks so fun in the snow!!
Pretty cool ya got Weird Al, 3 wheelin with ya.
Sweet!! Such an awesome vid! Cheers from Ottawa. 🍻
Love the Datsun Z in the background at the end of the video!!! I had a 1971 240Z when I was a teenager!!!
You guys enjoy your time. It goes by so fast. Pretty soon you get a wife, babies and life takes up your time and life is real. I love seeing you guys enjoying life. Live it to the fullest.
Fun video. I sold most of my 3wheelers, but I still have a 110. I grew up having one, so I keep it for fond memories I guess. It lives in my barn and mice use it as a condo, but I know 4 years from now, I'll put fresh non-ethanol gas in it and it'll fire right up. I'll have fun with it for 45 minutes, till I use up the gas, then I spray WD40 in the tank and toss it back in the barn. These things never die. Everyone should have at least one 3wheeler!
Reed Rothchild on a 3 wheeler today! Yeah baby!
Best slip I've ever seen in my life
I love the small machine content it’s good content and a nice break from just cars. Really cool man , would be cool to do some vintage sleds as wel
0:02
thats the most freedomest hair ive seen since dog the bounty hunter
Lil Ron geremy needs some soul glow on that glorious hair helmet 😅
One of my best memories growing up when a winter in the early 80s. We got a 'snow day' in rural Louisiana because all the roads were iced over, not because of actual snow. A neighbor had a 3 wheeler and we spent most of that day spinning in circles on the road and blasting around the pipeline cuts near our houses. It was a Honda, I think a 180 r 200. So much fun
Good times.
I really need to see John’s little cameo in the upcoming Stranger Things season. He is a time capsule on his own and I really enjoy his presence. More of John, please :)
Always liked the 110 more than any of the 125's.... Just put in the 114 rocky kit and clutch and they run forever.
if you want to just take the head off the 125 to see if the headgasket is gone for us, thatd be great. maybe the biggest issue is it leaking compression away from the head. obviously its also worn af but still
Does daryll hall know that john oats is now on RUclips 🤔
This is incredible. One friend had a 97 civic, not changed the oil or filters for 6 years, sitting for a year, and fired right up when we jumped it like it was running yesterday. It's amazing how much abuse can a Honda take...
My hands got cold watching this
Awesome that johns back. What a legend
I have to agree with you Kevin, Ryan over at FortNine should get one of the larger ATC's and do a reevaluation. Growing up and riding in the 90's and 2000's, nearly everybody we camped with and went riding with in the desert here in Socal had a 3 wheeler. My dad had an old Honda 350X that I rode on numerous occasions, with a little common sense and know how it was a perfectly safe machine. My uncle's Honda 110 on the other hand, regardless of how safe you rode would tip and throw you off every chance it got. In the end it pretty much got reserved for only riding across camp back to your cooler to grab another beer.
