No worries, we appreciate you've got a business to run. Thanks for updating us on your progress. Sweet bike!
Love the noise of that muffler every-single-time you fire it up, it's going on my build 'must have' list
I love the fact that you combine al these diffrent styles in to one bike. Nice work!
Love the green tank. In fact, love the color contrast with the seat. Overall, great looking machine....
Hey Taylor great job on that bike! Just wanted to tell you that your carb rebuild video helped me a ton and now I'm riding my 76 cb550f. Thanks for the help!!
It's a beauty.The " Bullit" green tank with tan seat is a perfect combo. And sounds great. Your customer will be very pleased. Cheers 👍
Thanks for all the links for parts in the description. Really helpful and not many people do it. Thank you!
Glad to see you happy and healthy! Gorgeous build and paint color, and very well done build. Would love to actually see one of your builds in person someday!
That bike is sick! I dig the combo of the scrambler, brute, cafe styles. I really enjoy your channel. No issues at all with running your business to catch up. Keep it up!!
That's a beatiful motorcycle, well done!! I got my first bike in April, an '81 Honda twinstar. Got it running and now I'm having a blast!
Love the look of that bike! Colour of the tank and seat are perfect. Glad you are doing well. You have a business to run and totally understand your focus. Keep it up.
This bike is absolutely beautiful. Incredible job
Glad to see the larger turn signals. Safety (for others) should always come first!
Great looking bike man. You’ve really come leaps and bounds from when you first started out making videos. Good work 👍🏾
3:30 Just a bit of FYI regarding the front guard on these bikes Taylor. They're act as part of the bracing for the forks. When you remove the front guard you need to pay attention to how you're replacing that bracing to avoid "flexion".
Very good result. I don’t mind missing the progress build but I really appreciate seeing the end result , nice and clean.....
Good to see you're back safely from the lockdown! Looking really forward to the m-unit Honda upgrade video. your video will be the motivation for me to upgrade mine as well. Could not do it without your support. Thanks a bunch
It's gorgeous. I love it, man! I have a 78 CB550K and this video is inspiring my build. Thanks for sharing.
that bike is beautiful! the owner is a lucky guy, and i'm sure he will be very happy. i know i would be. glad to see you're taking care of business. kinda missed the vids, but as a self employed individual myself, i totally understand.
Great job Tyler I'm sure your customer will be very happy with his new bike
Welcome back. Was watching an old video last night wondering when the next would be.
Wow this bike is super clean! I’m editing the exhaust video for my Budget Brat Cafe Build today and this was all the motivation I needed!
Another great job, I enjoyed seeing the finished bike. Thanks Taylor.
Nice walk around, I also like the parts list in the description. Good job, glad you're back!
Looks terrific, I live in pa and my inspection mechanic gave me crap for no rear fender. My setup was just like this
You're getting really good at this!
Glad you are back. Awesome build!! Love it. Can’t wait to see what’s next. Thanks for the videos Enjoy watching your builds and will it run videos. Keep up the good work
Good to have you back missed your videos, Hello from Ireland
I really like this build, great setup! Thanks for the video!
Love it! You sir, always do an outstanding job. Thank you for the videos and all you do in the motorcycle community.
Also, I'd love to see you do your magic to that 305 dream. I'm building one right now myself!
beautiful build. love the color combos and the style choices you made!
Beautiful job. It sounds freaking like a classical song...
Damn that sounds crazy good. Love the color of the tank and fender.
Nice to see you’re busy - did see a sneaky photo of the bike on Instagram. Very nice and a perfect colour.
Another C.O. Masterpiece, nice work Taylor.
Can't wait for both that gas tank paint video and also the m unit! 😄
Very well done my man....All the parts in all the right places.....😎
Love the process!! And the before and after! Art 😎
So glad to have you back! The Bullet green looked slightly blue in the vid, but I can imagine it with the distressed brown seat/grips... tasty choice.
It has a blueish tint with my LED lights but in the sun its more green.
This bike really looks outstanding. Actually, after all these modern rules how a cafe racer or a scrambler has to look like, they virtually look all alike. Good to see that somebody has his own ideas.
That's a beauty, well done!
You can build a bunch of stuff on the down low without documenting it, especially if there's nothing special about the build, and no one would ever know. you get the revenue, and you get to reserve the special builds for extra attention that filming brings. But I'm glad you filmed this one :) I have a CB550 that's nearly original that I need to tweak. Runs like a dream. But this build is gorgeous, looks and sounds amazing, good work.
All good brother. We all understand how life is. The bike turned out great 👍🏼👍🏼
Yay the videos are back!!!
Dang man thats so nice man. Love the colour! Keen to see the how to paint gas tank video next! Awesome work as per usual
Another great build , I did wonder if you were unwell . Glad to see you back . Keep them coming, would like to see you work on a kz 650 that would be awesome
Great job Taylor you certainly know your way around these Honda fours. They are beginning to dominate your garage lol. Love all the bikes really though.👍
Start's bike at the 11:40 mark, sounds fantastic! Awesome build!
Happy to see you're OK and thanks for the video.....I'm currently building a 1986 Honda XL250R (don't know if this model was sold in US) in my garage and your videos are really helping/inspiring me. Hope to finish it soon!
How did the build go? Those are cool dirtbikes.
@@verrofy The bike is finished and back on the trails! Probably will put it again on the garage for a proper paint job, but it’s running great
Dang bro, that looks and sounds amazing!
As always you have created yet another awesome bike
Cool, ill be following on the cb750 work, just about halfway done with mine
Soooo beautiful!!! Congrats!!! You are a Master!!! Love you videos 👍♥️
Great build.... and good business decision.... keep em coming.....🏍
My first motorcycle was a brand new 1975 CB550 K-1. Put it through hell. Best motorcycle I ever owned. Not the fastest, the fanciest, certainly not the most expensive, but all 'round the best.
Le son est incroyable, très bon travail
Awesome build! Bike looks 👌
Feels so bizarre that you ended up using the same color I'm doing on my CB750 tank. Video started and I was like.. "Hmm, that's a nice color.. Oh its a ford color? Wait a sec.." It looks great here and I've been getting compliments on the pics of mine as well.
this dude is having a blast right now.. PA back roads are made for cafe bikes
OMFG, I love this color !!!!
love the vids dude and appreciate the honesty about the time conundrum! the Bike looks epic too, well done!
Totally what I’m looking to do to my racer inspired thanks
Good you got alot of work, makes a fan happy :D Keep going.
Really happy to see you’re OK. I was afraid you were sick.
All good here. Happy to be back!
Enjoyed the video. Under that lighting, the bike looked sort of blue. That too, was a good color combination.
The LED lights in my shop make it looks a little more blue than it does in the sun.
Looks really good! I wish that was my bike!
Great build, I like it. Thinking about .... just listening to the sound. Amazing.
look forward to the tank painting video
looks and sounds great. love it
Nice build, Taylor.
I like this one too. Looks fun to ride.
Looks and sounds good 🛠
Savage job as usual man. Can't wait to see yer next build. I'm guessin a 2 stroke!!
great machine, another great build💪
You absolutely KILLED this 😍 *subscribes*
Awesome built my friend...👌
awesome bike!
Great bike!
Work of art!! I’m very curious how much the customer payed for the bike to be built. It was definitely worth every penny! Keep up the great builds!
Nice job!
Beautiful build!
Thank you!
I wanted to say fenomenal work with this build. One small little detail would have been nice to use the same same color to paint the head light from black to jade.
I would love to see a video on a full m-unit wiring. Also just throwing this out there for a future vid if you ever get some down time but another full motorcycle wiring video but without a m-unit kinda like the apocalypse motorcycle where you wire up a motorcycle with just the basics to be street legal. Looking forward to painting a gas tank vid!
absolutely beautiful. 😍
Ever thought of strapping a camera to the ceiling on time-lapse for when your too busy to talk? "Rough footage" type video? As always, love your work!
Great Bike! Keep going!
I would love a Honda m-unit video!
" Old man" Taylor? The beard doesn't fool us T.
He is nothing but a pup. (I 60 this year.) Love your builds! Have you ever built a 350cc twin? My Dad had I always liked it. A bit buzzy on your feet and hands.
He’s feeling old but not yet grumpy, lol
Old. man ???? lol....I'm. 71, dude....and I don't consider myself old
BLESS YOU I LIKE YOU VIDEOS DONT GIVE UP 👍🏻👍🏻
CB550 is cool. Had the 750 first... and it was a tank on the turns.
I think the 550 is a good balance between power and weight.
Beautiful bike
Thanks!
Hey man take care of business and we will check out what you got when your ready!
i wouldve put boots on the fork, but thats so awesome, so sweet!!!
Howdy from Buda... nice build. I miss my 750 on a daily basis.
I have one we can build for you :-)
Classic Octane I used to commute on that bike. Given I work from now i better focus on and ther projects. I too have a 69 Camaro in the garage.
You could fill the gap between the seat and the tank with a small crescent shaped padded bag in the same material as the seat or just black, that you could push in the gap. Maybe tuffside could make you one? I think they'd be a good seller for them.
Also you could weld a slightly curved metal plate on the rear of the frame triangle to act as a rear mudguard to stop all the crap flying off the tyre and into the pod filters/bottom of the battery box. You could brand it and also it wouldn't affect the aesthetic.
You could, but you have to remember that the rear suspension moves in an arc, not straight up and down, so it might hit the guard. Also, if you ever change the gearing (which will require you to move the tire closer to the frame), the tire could rub in that situation too. And let's be honest, 90% of vintage customs are strictly "sunny day short trip" type of bikes.
Fingers crossed its a BSA build next!!!!
Doing a mono shock conversion on one of your builds would be awesome to watch.
In the works. Stay tuned.
should include customer reactions given how pumped i'd be with the before/after
Nice work.
Thanks!
