We have made it. In this video we are putting our work to the test with the first start up of the XL185s motor we overhauled just a few months back.
With just a few more things to button up, let's see how we did on this fresh rebuild.

This year (2024) will be attending the "MidOhio Vintage Days" event over in Lexington, Ohio. Would love to see anyone there who has been a supporter of the channel to shake your hand!

You can find out more about this event here https://vintagemotorcycledays.com/
