Hey man. What did you use to clean the engine parts?
Am always amazed at how people can disassemble and reassemble an engine. Looks like sorcery to me.

Really amazing piece of work! Very impressive. Must say though that I was a little surprised that after going to all that work, you didn't grind the valve seats or change the piston rings. Really enjoyed it though! 😀

It’s really nice to know that most bike engines are somewhat similar, so not only was I satisfied, but I also learned a lot watching this
Muy buen video artísticamente, desde una vista de un conocedor en mecánica, lo veo solo como una restauración estética, puedo apreciar muchos detalles que no son correctos, cómo por ejemplo, no cambios ningún rodamiento del motor que son muy importantes, no lo vi desarmar las válvulas para asentarlas, limpiarlas ni mucho menos regularlas cuando puso la torre de balancines, tampoco cambio los retenes que con más de 50 años ya no tienen la elasticidad para cumplir su función óptimamente. Si me gustaron algunos detalles como la puesta a punto, el torque (ahunque solo le dió a la tapa de cilintros) y la fabricación de las empaquetaduras con papel bilumoide que por cierto le faltó la del filtro centrífugo. En fin, puede que me equivoqué y alla echo esto fuera de camaras pero sería bueno tomar esto en cuenta para un siguiente video.

Very nice!. Too bad we didn't get to see it run.....
This brings back memories, I had one of these bikes for years, I rode one from North Wakes, to Cottingham, in Hull, for my part one and two training, did the full journey there on one tank, did my training and part one test, and all part two training, than went home on the Sunday. I passed my part two test shortly after. Happy times.

In Brazil, the CG 125 OHV was in production from 1976 to 2008, being CG 125 at launch, in 1990, it was renamed CG 125 Today, receiving the CDI replacing the platinum in 1992 and also some improvements in the engine, in 1995 it passed to be called CG125 Titan, in 2000 Titan underwent a redesign of the motorcycle, receiving some improvements in internal parts and adoption of electric start, in 2005 it was renamed CG125 Fan, until the end of production of OHV engines in 2008 due to engine no longer meets the restrictions of Promot III. It was the best-selling motorcycle for 32 years. The CG 125 Fan continued to be manufactured from 2009, but with a completely different engine, derived from the CG150 Titan OHC, launched in 2004, the 2009 CG 125 OHC was nicknamed "Bufa".

I am no expert but that engine looks brand new inside. When I was young I bought a motorcycle that was sitting outside for many years, managed to start it up and drove it for 2 years without changing anything, not even the oil, and sold it as it was for double the price. LOL. I would be so scared to put all those pieces back together. Great job!

You forgot to check, clean and grind the valve seats. It is no use going through all this trouble finding out you have no compression.

Extranho... uma restauração não se limita a limpar e pintar o velho motor, senäo a verificar com um manual do fabricante as medidas de cada componente, suas tolerâncias e a substituição daqueles que estiverem fora da medida, isso não passa de uma lavada de cara... A mais, deveria ter feito funcionar para demostrar o resultado... Você compraría esse motor?

I was also wondering why he didn't change the wear parts. Most of these parts (gaskets, ball bearings etc.) are easily available and don't cost a fortune, but I'd strongly recommend to use a NOS piston (if necessary!) and piston rings, as aftermarket parts by my experiance often show low quality.
You should get a parts washer. Some are self-contained, so need for plumbing.
man i wish i can restore engines everyday
When you fired it up are the end it was so smooth but the exhaust sounded like music.
It was a restoration, not a rebuild. That's why no metal parts were replaced. It was beautiful! I enjoyed watching every minute of it! I don't know why I find it so satisfying to watch!👍
I wonder if the frame and tires will be one video or split into two?🤔 Awesome job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You can still get a new one in the Philippines. Currently marketed as the TMX 125. Assembled at the Honda plant here from domestic and Chinese parts. There are also knockoffs marketed as Skygo, Rusi, MotorStar and others at varying levels of build quality and price but even the Honda badged machine is only around $1,000 USD.

I had a 71 Honda SL-125 that eventually had a 145cc powroll kit installed on it and before I did the kit on it i tried blowing it up to see just how tough the little 125 engine was and just held it WTFO for well over 2 minutes straight and nothing WTF that surprised the hell out of me thought for sure it would let loose after just a minute NOPE 🤣💪💪😎 Owned and raced alot of Honda XR's AND CR 's and I'd have to say that those old air-cooled XR 's were damn near bullet proof ! Keep your oil/filter clean, air filter clean and a fresh plug every now n then and that engine will last FOREVER 💪😎👍
