Orange County Choppers have a new and better competitor. Mezo's Rally Legends!!! The Tenere is the start of a great series - start placing your orders!!!! Great job - great passion - great perseverance - very well done. Miss the banter on adv
Excellent work there Mark, the bike looks awesome and i can appreciate all your hard work. I found this looking for information on my next rebuild which is a 1979 xt500 Sonauto replica, I have the forks sorted and have the facilities for making the Tank. Excellent work again. Cheers Tommy10bikes
@markmezo No worries Mark - fully understand. Your advrider rebuild series are a testament to your talent - bikes and people. Having read about the heart attack and nomadic lifestyle - it is far more important that you get "Mr Mark Mezo's Life Rebuild" up and running and on an even keel - so that people can enjoy your talents over the long run. Bikes are great fun - but people are worth infinitely more.
hey mezo, she came up awesome!! i wondered what happened to this thread, i was following it for months last year then it sort of fell off the radar after you moved.. a real credit mate, its a pearler! V8R
Very good job! I have one XT 600 "E" model 3TB, and I'm doing similar you did, but, in small videos presentations. Perhaps, one day, my bike will be pretty like yours!
Hi I'm interested by the work you did on the head ports. Would have been better to make bigger room on one side of the valve guide to create some bias for the flow ? or at least on the port wich work with the first opened barrel of the carb ? i see it's really straight
Very nice!! I just rebuilt the XT600's little brother the xt350, but I didn't go into quite as much detail as you did and I shoulda powder coated... :( I really like the paint scheme, and the graphics are pretty cool. Was that a custom made header and midpipe?
@markmezo Hi Mark. Beautiful bike mate!!! It never ceases to amaze me looking at your attention to detail. Is that you testing the bike near the end of the video? Butch (sso42)
Any chance of smoking the big peace pipe and getting teh banter back on advrider - and finishing your Tenere masterpiece - for all the fans!!! You are unbanned.
@chinditone Thanks for your support, i have been reading what your kind words, and im not dead or finished yet, just looking for two things right now a job & a new place to write my builds, id like to have my own site/forum dedicated to building/restoring of road adventure bikes, problem is that alone is a full time job in itself running the forum, and like anything i do it right first time.
@GypsyCoot The next build thread wont be posted on ADV, i put to much time & effort in to the last one only to have it closed for one joke/sentence. Im back on there & will post help where i can help & still have a laugh with the lads but as for writing another megathread on ADV no chance whatsoever.
It is a Devil front pipe from Kedo in Germany with a custom midpipe made by Noel at Pipework Techniques, he is the man that made those fancy header pipes that was used on the Britten V-Twin race bike in the 90`s. goldcoastmotorcycleexhausts (dot com au) Graphics cost a bomb to have made, i downloaded the logo`s from Brands of the world. brandsoftheworld (dot com)

Would have been better to make bigger room on one side of the valve guide to create some bias for the flow ?
or at least on the port wich work with the first opened barrel of the carb ?

nice, nice and good job . bravo

@michaelovitch
i mean it looks like one have a bias but i can't see and compare with the other.
it's what you did or it's just me ?
Nice XT. I just got the 1VJ a few months back, awesome bike. Where did you get the side covers from, or are they just repaired, they look mint?
+Richard Wendt Repaired.
