Freestyle motorbike rider and stuntman extraordinaire Aaron Colton is all about one thing—attention to detail, especially when it comes to rebuilding and restoring motorbikes.

His unparalleled ability to fine-tune the little things was on display during his “Project 2-Stroke” build for Red Bull Day in the Dirt in 2016, and three years later he’s running things back, going on another Craigslist search for a 2-stroke to resurrect for Day in the Dirt 2019. This time he’s settled on the iconic “Twin-Spar Honda CR” that changed the game in Motocross in the early 2000s, refurbishing it for the latest episode of Bike Builds.

Leading up to “Project 2-Stroke 2.0,” Colton developed new skills to put to use when building and maintaining his bikes. From honing cylinders to learning to cerakote and anodize his own parts, Colton takes pride in doing things himself, his own way.

Follow along as Colton finds his latest bike and takes it from Craigslist clunker to near-factory spec race bike in the first part of the latest Bike Builds with Aaron Colton, and stay tuned for part two next week, when Colton will put the bike to the test at Day in the Dirt.

The post Rebuilding a Honda Two-Stroke Bike | Project Two-Stroke 2.0 | Bike Builds with Aaron Colton appeared first on Team Envied.

In the second part of the new Bike Builds, freestyle motorbike rider and stuntman Aaron Colton continues “Project Two-Stroke 2.0” and puts his freshly built Honda CR125 to the test at Red Bull Day in the Dirt 2019.

After a grueling 18 days in the race shop taking the bike from Craigslist clunker to near-factory spec race bike, it’s time to see how well it runs. While Colton is no professional motocross racer, Day in the Dirt is far and away his favorite event of the year. What’s better than a weekend of friends, family and low-pressure racing?

Follow along as Colton loads up his family and his childhood dream bike and heads to Glen Helen Raceway to take on the “party that has a racing problem.”

The post How to Clean Your Bike Like The Pros | Bike Builds with Aaron Colton appeared first on Team Envied.

Freestyle motorbike rider and expert stuntman Aaron Colton is back, bringing you into Garage 93 for another episode of Bike Builds. This time, Aaron’s taking on a full-on refresh of a classic Honda CT70 minibike and turning it into the ultimate pit bike. In the spirit of Aaron’s previous Project Two-Stoke builds, he’ll take you through every step of the bike’s new lease on life — from acquiring the bike to cleaning, painting at a low cost, assembly and more. Join Aaron in the shop and get some inspiration to take on your own Honda Trail 70 build.

Read Aaron’s thoughts on the build:

“The CT 70 internationally is called the Honda Dax. To me, it’s part of the Honda mini trail family and honestly [the mini trail family] is what lays the foundation for motorcycling, as far as normal consumer-based people riding motorcycles. The CT 70 was kind of from that same family, but the street legal version – I don’t know the exact numbers, but internationally, I think they sold millions of them. It was super low priced. The motorcycle came out in 1968 and they sold through all the way to 1994. It had a really long run. It’s always been a bike that I thought was super cool because really it’s like a small, fun kick bike, but its street legal. This one you can literally go to the grocery store.”
