- It's finally here! The first ride was a freaking blast. I couldn't be happier with how this bike turned out. Just a few minor things and she is ready for its first long ride.

Probably one of the best sounding bikes I’ve ever heard 👌
Congrats to getting the bike to work! So impressed of your craftmanship and your eye for details. Looking forward to se the next bike! // Henrik from Sweden.
Just found this channel right as I’m finishing up work on my dad’s 1964 T120R Bobber that hadn’t run in 20+ years and starting work on a 1973 CB350F! That clutch issue is pretty common when those old triumphs sit for a while. Usually just hold the clutch and kick it a few times to break up the plates and it’ll be good to go, but I imagine you’ve gotten that figured out by now lol
Tyler that motor sounds GOOOOOD
Oh man thats sick. I've been following this build since the beginning and am so psyched to see the final product! Can't wait to see what other bikes you build! Keep it up!
That bike is so Rock'n Roll!! Badass build!
I've seen the whole playlist up until this video. Thank you for sharing!
I came to your channel for your Honda cafe stuff btw
Wooooohh. Hell yeah, the bike turned out frickin awesome, and the fact that you already have another project shows that you're just one of those rare people that actually like to get their hands dirty. Thanks for the videos, and can't wait to see that camaro get put together.
Sweet freaking ride my man. This is the first vlogs of yours I've seen. I'm now a sub bro. I've owned and rode a bit of everything. Except a Triumph. But I'm only 60 so I still got time peace out
Dude your face when you got back from your first ride, amazing. Must be such a sweet feeling!! I have been following this from the beginning and so super stoked to see her riding and that sound, beauty!! I am SUPER excited to see your next bike build.
It was hard to hold back my excitement ha. It's an awesome feeling to finally find out that I didn't spend the better part of a year ruining a bike.
At first I wasn't the biggest fan of this project. But now I absolutely love it!. Great job!!
Trying to bring a cb900 back to life as a brat. Getting a lot of inspiration and valuable info from you...thanks!! Btw....your trump might be the sweetest bike on the planet!
Isn't it nice when everything works the way it should the first time? Congratulations dude, happy for you!
Fine looking, sounding and -- most importantly -- riding bike! Congrats! Made me miss my '71 Daytona 500. Will watch your next build from start to stop. Thanks for the hard work!
There's nothing like a Triumph twin in full bark! It's a keeper! Man... it hurts looking at it. Wish I had one just like that!
great build series. Love the bike man
You're the man - Been fun following along...Learned alot about my CB from your earlier vids. Kick ass bike man! Thanks!
Well done. Looks and sounds great. It's an inspiration for me to get back out. It's 5 degrees Celsius here in Scotland. We have the opposite problem.
Triumph twins sound so good
You definitely have to love, the straight pipe sound. She's a beast!
It rides beautifully, because it's a British Classic,.. a Triumph!
Great series of vids BTW! Keep it up! 🇬🇧🍻👍🏻
been here since the CB project. i must say, this is a good journey watching along these videos
Man, this is amazing. Just watched the entire build in two days... I love it!
Checking your earlier builds. Wow, what a great sounding double thumper!
i am so happy ; its not even my bike and my face is aching with smiling . when i think of the sweaty hours i have spent trying to start english bikes over the years......congrats'.
the flame that came out of the exhaust was pretty cool
Congrats man!!! Been waiting on this day. Been watching you for a long while now. Can't wait to see what's next....under that cover. Love your work a dedication to detail. Wish I could send you one of my bikes to restore-
One of the most beautiful bikes I have ever seen! Congratulations!!!!
Thanks!
Sweet! Springer forks on next one!
Perfecto man! Great to see this one finished, when you first showed the hardtail come in, I knew this would be a beaut! Congrats!
Love triumph,sound smell .
Reminds me of when I was little bike week and a 63 Bonnie,650
Nice one bud been watching the build and I had a big smile on my face when you started her it look and sound real nice well done what a build
Had a bike sit in a barn for 18 years. Then I cleaned the carburetor and it fired right up.
NEW PROJECT HYPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great work watched you're channel for ages now uk fan 🇬🇧 looking forward to the next project
Great job on the Triumph, looking forward to seeing more.
Good job, I love this build series. Can wait until the next one.
That bike is so insanely cool! Good job man!
Triumph clutches are renowned for sticking after a lay up. Pull in the clutch and kick it over without the ignition on and that usually frees the clutch.
Good job mate..you have done a great build there,hope it brings a lot of fun riding..
looks awsome! Sound amazing great build buddy!
best lines of any bobber Ive ever seen! great job!
Thanks!
@@ClassicOctane love that riding jacket where did you get it and what brand not to be a copy cat also get another brass bell and mount them on the rear hubs on each side that would look killer
Looks a and sounds great dude. Awesome profile when shot from behind and above as it shows how narrow it is. From the side it’s low and stealthy. When you started it from cold there was a lovely orange flame. Old uk shifting pattern is very tricky to get used to. The ride sounded so good. Love your bike. 🇬🇧🏍👍🏻
Awesome Triumph Fella, Keep em commin.
I have an old Ducati that has the old shift arrangement. It's funny when a buddy asks to ride it. First trick is to start it without knowing the drill.
Trick #2, is starting it again after stomping the rear brake pedal instead of the shift lever, and killing the engine. Usually after that they don't want to ride it.🤣🤣
Good Stuff, and that sound, dam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looking to finish My own Restoration. Congrats bro, hope it worked as good as you wanted it too. It's cohesive, it works.
Nice to see it finished, good work!
Woaa finally! that is what i mean a strong engine, congratulation a great and noisy end to this awesome project. i can't waiting for the next one
Awesome Awesome Awesome!!! Really looking forward to your next project :D!!
I loved the brat bikes, but this is easily my favorite bike you've had on the channel so far.
Thanks! I still love it and ride it all the time. I'm planning on a few changes for it in the next few months.
Very GOOD Job !!! You were wigged out when you got off the bike for 1st. time ... don't blame you a bit I was too for YOU !
Now I am catching up with you some , what welder should I get for my projects can I get away with 110 v welder ? , going to do what I have been watching on videos, It is 1-15-18 Below ZERO wind chill last night, Detroit area waiting on battery and manual Thanks for getting me all fired up for the "78" CB550K Build
Just started watching your videos keep up the good work mate 👍🏻 from Rich England
Congrats. Very loud, but very cool looking bike.
So awesome my dude!! Great work!
Congrats!!!... It looks and sounds amazing!
going to be starting a 66 triumph bonnie hardtail build within a few weeks
Mine hasn't been started for several years. I kick over every once in a while with the plugs out just to get some coating on the cylinders.The clutch plates on mine always stick.
So cool! Sounds amazing! And it looks sooooo good!
Hey brother, I just bought one of your shirts, Maybe I will wear it in one of my cafe racer build videos :) (Shipping to Australia is CRAZY expensive) but id like to support your channel so I bought 1 anyway! They look cool :)
Thanks for the support! Sorry international shipping is a bit high. I shopped around and tried to get it as cheap but reliable as possible. I will ship it out today!
Awesome job! Looks and sounds great !👍🏻
Beautiful bike.
Way to go man nice job on the bike.
Love the Sound en looks man
Congratulations. Nice build
Nice bike mate .
Righteous ride!!!
Nice smooth idle!!, you did a fine job 😀
Awesome bike man, health to enjoy er. And most of all, keep er lit
😎👍👍👍👍
The clutch disks are probably stuck together. Happens to mine if it sits for extended times. Take them apart, clean em and re install. (Don't let it sit up.)
Great Job! bike looks and sounds great! I admire the wiring portion of the vids, I would really appreciate it if you could show more of the wiring work. I have built a custom bike (chopper) and the most challenging part for me right now is the wiring. Thanks for putting your work on youtube, I hope to do a café racer style bike real soon.
Check out some of my other videos on this build if you haven't already. I covered everything in detail and even made a dedicated m-unit overview video. ruclips.net/video/PRB427sIJSE/видео.html
It sounds freakin awesome.
Great work! Great video!
Hopefully one day I can visit your garage and talk bikes.
Your kick arm is hanging up because it does not clear the foot peg arm. I can see the rub mark on the peg. I had to flip the jam bolt on my kicker arm to make clearance. Nice ride!
Good job man!
Nice job.
congrats!!! nice job.
I knew she was gonna roar bad ass man...
Well done.
the kick was sticking. Did you have to rewind the spring? That OIF is beautiful. Well done!
Great sound
on triumphs we free the clutches up by either before starting pull the clutch lever and kick the engine over and or start the engine and pull lever in and rev the engine until they are free .. everytime if the bike sits for more than a day
Yeah I have gotten in the habit of putting it in gear and pulling the clutch. Then I rock it back and forth a few times until they free up.
looks amazing
Have you ever had this beast in the Dyno? Would love to know how many horses are living inside
Cool bike, man! Where did you get the turn signals?
dude you are awesome!
sweet dude !!
dude, i love it
Love it!!
What is "getting it inspected" mean?
Yep, that exhaust is gonna fry your left leg. Drag TTs are the way to go. Also, if you're not running a front fender, attaching a plate that runs from the exhaust height to the bottom of engine height on the front frame rail, will keep the crap thrown from the front tire away from your engine.
Lucky you., You can ride in November too.
Here people are storing their bike for winter :(
Looks good and sounds great! Nicely done. Oh and it's 20 here right now, supposed to be 12 tonight.
I like that jacket. Is that the Joe Rocket classic 92?
Yes, I like it but only when it's cool enough. Looking for something a little lighter for the Texas heat.
That headlight is badass! What kind is it and where did you get it? Three lights and ignition :O
It's probably the original, looks like it. That oil in frame (disaster) T140V was built between 1973 to slightly beyond '78 (strikes permitting of course 🍻) at the Meridian factory UK where all the Bonnevilles were built.
Does it have no rear suspension? How is it like to drive?
Right, there is no longer any springs in the rear. Just the springs supporting the seat. It actually rides better than I expected. I will do a longer ride/ review once I get my new license plates in.
I love it! and your channel but when you drive I'd rather see the road ahead than the bike
Will you pass inspection with the exhaust that loud? Just wondering because i'm about to get my bike inspected (in Colorado) and am worried about how loud it is. Bike looks incredible though; you've definitely outdone yourself!
Texas doesn't have any sound max that I know of. The only requirements for a bike are.
1. Horn
2. Mirror
3. Steering
4. Brakes (system)
5. Tires
6. Wheel Assembly
7. Exhaust System
8. Tail Lamp (1)
9. Stop Lamp (1)
10. License Plate Lamp
11. Rear Red Reflector (1)
12. Head Lamp (1)
13. Motor, Serial, or Vehicle Identification Number
Can you get a hard tail to put on a new triumph frame ?
I have seen a few full frames that are designed to be used with a modern engine but I don't think I have ever seen just a hardtail for one.
Lowbrow customs makes a rigid bolt on frame piece for them.
You going to the Handbuilt Show?
Yeah, I plan to take the Triumph there this year.
NICE!
