This is an old video that Ive seen a few times already but man I just gotta say, nothing makes me wanna ride a motorcycle more than Jamie Robinson! His appreciation for bikes and the riding lifestyle just radiates from his very being and infects his viewers with a positive and excited vibe. Love it man keep doing what you do!
Hey man!, I use final cut for editing and my cameras are a bunch of things from GoPro's to a 5D, with some simple but high quality camcorder footage for B roll and handheld talk to camera stuff thrown in. Glad you love the video, it was great fun making it! :) J
its 2024 i just found an IT400 i went out and bought it even though it was blown up just took the top end off and im happy to report the bottom end is in amazing shape and it still has its standard bore piston in it. just bought some rings wish me luck fellas... KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE!
what is the stuf you lubricate in the cilinder wall for the scratches? what is it called and do they sell it in us only? i've never sean it in europe...
$650 seems like a fair price for such a bike in running condition, but I'm curious as to what the final damage was for rebuilding it back to competitive condition.
Am trying to build Pursang bikes but thinking of buying a RM500 as been waiting to buy a Bultaco Astro Flat Track for years unfortunately Britain wasn't interested in them so impossible to find as now am getting old worried of being scammed if buy abroad then have shipping,duty,insurance that makes bike to expensive then.
Used to own that exact bike, it kicked my ass and I got scared of it and sold it for a bit of cash and a PlayStation. Dumb move, the game console becomes eventually worthless and the cash got spent.

That's awesome, go get it!
Unbelievable vid man! Living the dream, living in the US? riding a classic 400 stroker like that. 10/10 bud.
The old bikes got it done, you just had to work harder. Great bike, keep her running till we put her in a museum.

i had a 79 and a78 both awsome strong bikes
Why did it seize? Lack of oil?
Googled round, think its engine block filler, the brand I came across was Moroso .. guess there must be more brands out there!
i wish i was out there at race tech,
they could make this KX 500 to fit me.
Mint!
Your seat needs a little TLC buddy
