Thanks for the post! I recently inherited my late grandfathers 1985 CH150 and have been rebuilding it. This video was perfect!

have you ever installed a phone charger on one?

Thanks dude!

Great video, very helpful. Do you have a video or write up on the front brakes?

Hi, unfortunately I don't but it's very easy to do since you don't have to pull all the other stuff off like you do on the rear. Pull front axle out, unscrew the cable from the arm and I believe it will all come apart after that. Once open, replacement will be the same.

Once you get the skin off, underneath looks the same all the years. My rear brake cam is frozen solid after I got the stuck wheel off so I have my work cut out for me freeing it up or replacing it. I have a 1984 Elite 125 and a 1985 base 150 I'm working on. The 125 runs but needs new carb and carb mount while the 150 is a full project but runs.

Sounds like a project!

Thanks for the heads up about the exhaust gasket! I need to replace the rear tire on my 87 Elite 150.

Ok I watched a little further and have a question. Why didn't you clean the brake housing off and grease the cam and pin? The rear brake would function a lot smoother if you did.

Here we are several months later and I have an update - changed the back tire, of course took the wheel and exhaust pipe off. The exhaust gasket looked horrible, but it still sealed just fine. Just an FYI for the 3 other people that still own these.

I'm putting the exhaust on Honda is back ordered.

Are the front and back brakes the same I'm looking on partzilla and the same model number is showing up for front and back shoes

Yes, I believe they’re the same. Partzilla has been excellent for me to use looking up parts.

Has anyone replaced the front suspension?

I have not.

Where did you get the breaks?

Is this same as the 250?
