If you have a small old Honda motorcycle that needs to be restored, then you need to know about Lil’ Bikes Restoration in Brownsburg, Indiana.

The shop restores select Honda models to showroom quality, taking them down to the last bolt and rebuilding them good as new. The Lil’ Bikes shop works on the Z50, MR50, SL70, and CT70.

Recently, PutchFilms did an in-depth video of the shop and its owner. It’s worth a watch.

Lil’ Bikes Restoration’s Secret is Attention to Detail

What strikes me about the shop and Tracy Schooler every time I talk with him, is the pure passion for attention to detail. Nothing goes overlooked.

This video shows a kind of behind-the-scenes look at just how far Tracy and his employees go to make these bikes perfect. From the initial teardown to the painting of the frame to the wrapping of the wiring, everything is done in a meticulous fashion.

It’s nice to see someone rebuilding these little bikes that so many of us grew up riding. And for me, it’s even nicer to see it being done in my own backyard.

If you have an old Honda you’d like restored, I’d give these guys a call. They work with customers all across the U.S.
