Patrick Blake: learned a lot from your videos!
And the tail light is really nice I like the look of it on the top
I like the bell on top of the fender. Especially when the Brass grin head light goes on.
Thank you for replies and info , now time to start my project soon finally received most items to start at least !
The outside of that Camaro looks really clean!
One of the best and easiest to follow channels right now on youtube really enjoying your builds from over here in Scotland keep up the good work. I will defo be adding an M-Unit to my next gs750 build.
Glad you're enjoying it. Good luck with your GS!
Keep up the good work. I learn something new with every video. I like the 550 "how to" videos. I have a 76 550 that I'm working on.
me too. how's it going?
Me 3 just starting 78 550 these videos fired me up and got me ordering parts figure it is a good summer project , may buy a newer bike to ride now and another project bike
The bike is looking cool man. I think you should include the words "M-Unit" in the title. It will help when people search for it. Your video on how to wire a LED tail light really helped me a lot recently when I was installing a similar light on my new build.
Done! Good thinking. I'm also going to put together an M-unit specific video in the next day or two to show people the basics of how they work.
On the fender looks good
Its really coming along, as far as the tail light, have you thought about mounting it off the back of the fender just above the wheel? You would probably have to make some sort of mount for it, but having it centered would be nice. Another thought would be to find a small enough light and cut the bell in half lengthwise, and attach it flat side down near the edge of the fender.
On the fender does kinda ruin the sweeping lines of the bike but at the same time fits it...if that makes sense. All in all great work man
If you want to have an idea what the tail like looks like high on the rear, take a look at Yamaha’s XSR900. I personally think it looks good there, and is very visible which is the whole point.
I like the m unite I'am going to buy one for my Honda cb125 project thanks for this video men
What year cb is yours. I’m working on a 75 Cb125s at 5he moment
I'm going to put together an m-unit overview video in the next day or so. Just to run through the basics of how they work and how to program them for those who are curious.
cool car man
When you get your state inspection, they will check for a rear brake light switch. I live in Tyler Texas and have been in the motorcycle biz for the past 20 years.
It’s passed inspection two years now without an issue. I just got my KZ750 inspection and all they checked was headlight, taillight, and horn. I guess some people are more strict than others.

These shops around here are afraid of getting busted. The state sneaks a spy in occasionally. They can pull your permit or hit you with a redicously high fine.
Here in the UK, once a vehicle reaches 40 years old, it's exempt from annual MOT test (inspection)
If you could, I'd recess the bell down into the fender a bit, or chop it just a little bit so it's in/around the fender instead of just sitting on top... Hard to explain but I think you'll get what I'm saying.
'67 firebird is my bucket list car. i've had a 69 amc javelin, 70 dodge challenger rt, 71 ford torino gt, 72 chevy nova, 69 chevy el camino, 73 chevelle, and a 74 dodge demon. had, and sold. but never a firebird. now they are worth as much as my house. had the opportunity in the 90's, but bought a 69 triumph instead. yes, i'm a dumbass.
Maaaan! That tail light is awesome, but... I'd change those handlebars for more riser style ones. Great bike though.
If only you had two of those bells. I think it would look clean to put one on each side, integrating the signals and brakelight and running lights of course.
Happy to see a Camaro on the channel over the Mustang.
My vote would be tail light on the fender....love the camaro (383ci build in the future?)
I'm looking for more power than that :-) I will cover the plans when I do the official project intro.
Hi, Thanks for the video first! It’s very informative and helpful for my project. I have a quick question: Can I know why you connected the oil light and neutral light with the kill switch?
I had a feeling it would be a Camaro. Wish I could have afforded an M-Unit for my CB350F, would have made wiring a lot more simple
Then you could thread the fittings into the frame and run the wires threw it
Its look better in black
first time caller long time listener, can you wire up all the lights to a single button I'll take the answer off the air love the show
What did you use for your batter box? Do you have a part number? Thanks
Where do u work at and are they hiring?
Paint? Looks great as it is!
Just painting the frame for rust prevention. I like the way everything else looks.
@classic octane what reg rec are you using?
Hey mate, what camera do you use? its very clear and the sound is crisp :)
I use a Sony A7ii with an external mic. Thanks!
Another great vid! Love the Chev! I want an M.Unit on my 66 Trumpy Bobber but only place to mount is right under the tank and I guess it gets too hot there? Also, I'm going to run no battery with just a capacitor and that might be another problem! What do you reckon? Cheers from UK
1:44 sounds familiar. 1:47 oh, I know that exhaust.
Can the m unit be installed on a 72 SS350 Sprint
Just a quick question. What's that little black block that you use for grounding called and where can I get one?
Nice glad it wasn’t a Mustane!!! Lol
Many speculated it was a 69 Camaro. Cool ride. My bucket list car is a 67 or 68 RS. I know the 69 is the most desired muscle car but I like the more "pony" curves on the earlier models. Question. Many restomods use the small bullet turn indicators. The do look cool. Aesthetics aside, one of the biggest issues in motorcycle safety is people don't see us. Any real concerns with that? Or is the brightness of the newer LCD bulbs effectively creating just as large of a "light" image?
With the LEDs they are plenty bright in my opinion. My first car was a '67 RS.
hi it's been a while but can you link the amazon for those controls? thanks
What brand of fuse holder do you use? Do you use it with most of your builds?
I like the taillight idea but not for that bike. I think no matter where you put it it will be too much. I personally think using the turn signal style lights you have as brake lights will match better with what you're already using on the bike....
I agree. I just ordered some tail/brake/turn combo lights to replace the ones that are on the bike now. It should look pretty clean.
Classic Octane perfect! The bell would look cool for the one I will be building soon tho! Lol! There will be a lot of brass on mine...
You mind telling us where you got the headlight brackets?
What’s needed just to start a motorcycle using an m unit and what connects to what because I’m trying to re-wire my whole bike and not sure if I have everything just to get it started
Check out my m-unit overview video ruclips.net/video/PRB427sIJSE/видео.html this should help you get started.
Great work. Can you tell me were you sourced the common earth/ power block?
amzn.to/2xsWnMw It's pretty big for my application so I had to cut it in half.
Where did you obtain the battery box ? Would the m unit fit inside of it ? Thank you
Amazon, amzn.to/2DXEOCY The m-unit would fit in the box if the battery wasn't in it but they wouldn't both fit.
where did you get to battery box from?
Possible to used the rear turns as a taillight?
Thought about that but I need red taillights and amber turns to be legal here in Texas. I couldn't find a good LED option that had both built in.
1969. Last of the real Camaros.
Dude, clean your benches off.
U talk to much see ya
I hate tic tac
another muscle car ruined with oversized wheels. These cars didn't handle at all from the start
