- Well folks, here it is!
It's been a long road but today I feel happy enough to call the bike "finished"!
Thank you to everyone who has helped and supported me throughout this build, honestly it means a lot!
Kick back and enjoy...
It’s all a learning curve.
Nice job Euan, am interested to see what you do next.
Excellent 🙏
That’s the dog’s danglers, that is!
Almost 1000 views brother! Smashin that algorithm with interactions
It looks great, you should rightly be pleased with yourself, but also want to improve as well
Love it. Come here from Hippo-drones 👍
Great job, strong work. Im in, looking g forward to whats next!!
That's a nice looking KTM scrambler 👍
Well done Euan, look forward to the shake down test...and your next build!
Excellent design and execution. Well done that man.
Well done Euan - looks great and sounds awesome! Looking forward to the next one!
Brilliant. You will have such a strong connection to that bike. Riding it will feel like an extension of yourself. Great work Euan!
Well done on the GS! Thank you for sharing this build with us and hopefully you will start another soon. Enjoy the ride(s)!
Thanks mate! Looking forward to seeing yours finished.
From Basque Country, congratulations for the proyect, a beautifull motorbike! Thanks for sharing your work.
Thank you!
Excellent work.
Looks brand new very nice
Great job man! Keep it up man! I'm definitely along for the journey!
Thanks Travis 🙌🏻
Nice work Euan! Enjoyed watching the build and the end result is pretty cool. Looking forward to the shake down and future builds.
I came across your channel a couple weeks ago, and i have watched every episode of this build in those couple of weeks. Absolutely brilliant how ur learning, building and showing your mistakes you could easily edit out. This build has been awesome. I see i have some catching up to do from the last 2 years XD. Nice job man, i think im buying an old gs500.
Thanks for the kind words! Welcome to the channel!
Proudly wearing your merch man. And very happy for you that you achieved ultimate satisfaction doing this build :p
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Fine job man, I'm thoroughly impressed!
Great work Euan. Loving the sound of those pipes I may need to add 2 to my basket. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned next.
The end can was a bargain! Get involved 💪🏻
Shoogly Shed Motors I’m waiting for payday. I spent all my pocket money on a mug you insisted I should buy 😂
@@keithmcintosh4945 you won't regret it 🤣
Great job Euan. Tank looks 👌🏼 But my favourite part is the frame. Might be down to it being in KTM orange mind 😉
Haha! I swear to god I never even thought about it until someone pointed it out a few weeks ago!
@@ShooglyShedMotors Can only be a good thing. Instead of trying to hide the frame, it makes it pop.
You've done a cracking job mate! Well done!
Thanks dude!
I am utterly stoked for you Euan, you must be chuffed to bits. I have enjoyed every single video of the progression of this bike and although I knew it was going to look incredible, I didn't quite realise how fantastic the end result would be. Give yourself a huge pat on the back mate, well done.
The fact that you did all this, not just in a tiny shed, but having to learn how to do each part as you went, and then to do so at such a high standard, proper pukka hats off to you.
I can't wait to see it on the road, I do hope you plan on showing the bike at some rallies etc if they go ahead?
Thanks a lot mate, like I said, the support has been incredible and I can't thank you enough 🙏
I'm really excited to take these skills to my next build, but yeah, I want to ride this one first! If any rallies go ahead, I'll hopefully make it to a few! 🤞🏻
Great Job! You have every right to feel very proud of yourself. Well done.
This is one of the best scramblers I've ever seen. Well done mate!
perfekt job
The bike looks amazing. You did a great job and the whole series has been super helpful in the pursuit of building my first bike. Keep up the great work.
Nice! It has been fun to follow your efforts this winter and it has given me inspiration for my own projekt. Very well done!! I look forward to the next projekt. Possibly a Honda Dominator??

Thank you! I'm not sure what's next yet! Maybe 😅
Looks great Euan, solid work. Still digging your chain guard, and your seat. That tank came up mint at as well. Looking forward to the next one.
Great looking bike lad keep it up and keep documenting for us all to see your work 👌
Euan I'm about lost for words. For real I can't believe the work that you've produced by your own hands. It's inspiring, to roll the dice and try something new. You've literally produced art, as well as a beauty of a bike, that sounds brilliant too.
The colours are amazing, the seat is brilliant, the name is also braw. Congratulations on completing your build, I pray that you intend to strap a GoPro on for the shake down to get your reactions.
I'm sad that this build has come to an end as I enjoyed the videos and learned a lot from them, though I'm already excited about your future.
Possibly a stand at the Bike Shed Show for The Irn Girder? Fantastic work, safe riding bro!
Thanks for the amazingly kind words! I'm really glad you like the finished bike! The colours will definitely divide opinion but I love it!
I'm definitely going to film my shakedown ride for sure, I can't wait to get out on it after all this time working on it and just looking at it! I hope it doesn't fall apart 😂
Thanks for the support throughout the build!
Great video man, bike looks amazing. I made the same face as you at 4:30.
The fact you have done pretty much everything yourself on this bike and it looks as stunning as it says it all man 👍 congrats
Thanks dude - it sounds even better than my last GS!
Absolutely gorgeous Euan. I'm still insanely bloody impressed with that seat, because it's something I honestly don't think a lot of us could learn, you learned it and made it look tasty! The whole build is class tho congrats. I agree, I'd be disappointed if I didn't walk away from something and not see ways I can improve, I'll be ok with it when I'm about 80. I look forward to seeing it out on the road :)
Thanks Michael! I reckon anyone could do it with a bit of time learning a machine. But it does require a certain amount of patience and persistence! Hopefully catch up with you in person soon for a blast 💪🏻
@@ShooglyShedMotors ahhh you don't realise your own talent man or maybe you don't understand how clumsy I am 😁 I blame the concussions.
Absolutely man. With a bit of luck it'll be this summer :)
Maybe you're right, but you don't know until you try right?
Definitely man - get the crew together!
@@ShooglyShedMotors True enough!
Haha god help wherever we end up 😂
😂😂😂
Now you need to set up a bike business - modding other motorcycles to customers’ specifications.
Nice
Hi just re-watching as I am rebuilding a GS500 that I got for a low price as the previous owner had butchered every bolt and fixing. I have removed all of the broken studs and staring the long process of cleaning and painting. quick question did you blank off the 2nd Air pipes that come out of the front of the engine and if so is there anything else that you need to do in order for the bike to run smoothly. :)
My engine was from a previous model which didn't have the ports on the engine you mention. I have however heard of people creating blanket plates for them on the newer models!
Hi mate, ive been working on the same bike doing a similar project and i was wondering where did u find the tyres, and whats there refrence. very good video btw !

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
so what's next, engineer your own engine? :P
Nice build, what year of frame is it?
1999.
@@ShooglyShedMotors nice, do you still have it? I want to make a scrambler with my 93 gs 500, any suggestions on what I should do, are the front forks the same on a 93 and 99? I'm worried it won't be able to handle the pot holes that come with off road as there isn't much suspension travel. Does yours bottom out alot?
How much to do that to mine??
Where did you buy the exhaust?

@@ShooglyShedMotors thankyou man, congratulations for your videos btw
