This is truly a great video. Thanks to it, I discovered I was using an original Honda C50 shop manual dated August 10, 1966 I downloaded, with a misleading description not mentioning the T-position is needed to measure the 0.3-0.4 space. I was using the F-position and that really doesn't get the engine working. So thank you very much for this guidance!

I just picked up the 1973 Honda Trail 50 I had as a kid from my dad's shop... I haven't rode it in over 40 years... These videos are gonna be a huge help... Thanks!!!

Thanks dude. Helped me figure out why my c110 was not getting spark!

Best video on the topic. Exact and complete.

Excellent video bro. THe only one I found that actually shows what to do with each thing and why.

Best points shaving film since the longest yard

I could not set my points today on my 1970 Honda ST70. I was sooooooo pissed. I watched you and I was riding in 1/2 hour. Thanks Man. I was about to get my hammer out!

the tools you use were like golden for me long time ago :) I was setting the points for that engine using only my eyes, most times worked but sometimes u could see fire sparks off the excaust  :)

It has been a long time since I worked on a Z50R motor with 4 wires. In either 1979 or 1980 they changed to a single wire output which powered the ignition coil only. The 4 wire stators were used for bikes with lights, horns, and other electrical components. If you wish to run lights, that's what the other wires are used for. Keep in mind, the voltage is not regulated so you'll have to wire in a voltage regulator. It would be a good idea for you to search for wiring diagrams.

Thx for helping me adjust my points on my honda c50 you dont find that knowledge very often

Awesome, Always learning. Just restored 3 Dirt Bikes, but running into this issue now. Thnx for the VID

Great video. Thank you😊

Got my 69' z50 to spark using this technique! great vid!

i have always been told to use a point file. sand paper is glass an insulator if there is pieces of sand on the point it will not fire. if u use a file only metal a conductor will be left behind and conduct if there is small amount of debre in the point area. not a big deal but good for people with out comoressed air. great video and can be done both ways. the best video i have seen on this

you know what you're doing man, wish i could too .......

Super helpful video. Thanks!!!

Thanks for the video, awesome  info ,keep up the great work everyone,  well done
 ☆☆☆☆☆ .thanks so much  ,keep up the great work everyone.

Good video's Alex. There is a flaw in your settings if the points and their rubbing block are worn. Setting just the point gap with worn out points will give you correct dwell but the spark advance will be early.  Not too common on the little Hondas but I have seen it.

im having issues with the wiring :/ you make it look soooooo simple ! im gonna try now

Great video, awesome details, appreciate that holmes!
