These shops videos are easily the best ones you guys make. The humor is just on point.
For a 16 year old yes spot on
@@Fee.1 To each his own. I'll enjoy my 16 year old humor content while you spend your time denigrating my tastes!
@@guimauve522 no not your tastes, just the channel
@@Fee.1 hands up if you're too grown up for this channel?
@@gofres the hosts are too old for it…that’s kind of the point
I was lucky enough to catch and chat to James while at the Teeside track and he’s a proper down to earth guy I was going try and catch Al but he looked like a angry eyed mr potato head so I left him to it 😂😂
I’m one of the people who went out and bought an srad 750 after watching the first bbb. I’m now on the lookout for a zxr 😁
Same mate.. but I’m after ZXR H2, which is the older model before the ZX7R 👍🏼
@@woooster17 the h2 is probably the the best looking bike on the planet 👍
@@ksrad7508 Totally agree.. I've owned 3 H2s.. 2 green, 1 red.. Lovely bikes 🔥
@@woooster17 I had an H2 Superbike back in the day. Factory radiator, close ratio gearbox, rob muzzy full titanium system, carb kit and kit igniter revved to 12,800.
@@ksrad7508 Just popped back in to say.. an H2 ZXR is now squeezed into my garage along with the SRAD, and my 3 other bikes! I just can’t help myself 😄
This and the OG bbb with these bikes was amazing! I love rewatching this, Double bloody decker!
The 7R is probably one of the best looking bikes made gorgeous.
I know, I fancied one 21 years ago, I was a big fan of WSB & endurance racing. Going through the brochure me & my bruv came to the conclusion the ZX-6R was lighter, smaller, cheaper, lower insurance and almost the BHP. So I bought one, on the road it was every bit as fast as a neighbour on a ZX-7R.
Too heavy though
@@mark675 my brother had one you could turn a battleship in a tighter area than a 7R and it was the tightest most unergonomic motorcycle I've ever sat on still awesome though.
@harrier850 Gixer was always a great bike, by 2005 I still had my ZX-6R, my mate's K4 was in a different league. And he rode it like he stole it.
@@zedddddful yeah i agree, lovely looking bike but too heavy, wide and slow by today standards, used to love them in wsb, although all the old wsbs 916, gsxR , mille etc were awesome 😄
Best BBB with these bikes can’t wait to see more of them
Best way of cheering up a dreary Monday
Ahh yes, THIS is what we're waiting for.. and the reason I recently bought a mint '98 SRAD 🙌
How is it? I'm looking at a 99 but it's a 600
@@alonzowilliams116 Great bike.. I swap between the SRAD & my Aprilia RSV, but I enjoy riding the SRAD more.. it’s certainly comfier to ride. It’s a classic 90s superbike, and even though it’s 20+ years, still has more than enough power (for me) particularly in the upper rpm range. Brakes are best described as ‘adequate’ though, especially compared to the radial Brembos on the RSV.. a rebuild may be on the cards soon. Mine is all original & still gets it’s fair share of looks, especially in the classic Suzuki blue/white..
@Allen Galloway I gave that some thought too.. I paid £4K for mine.. 16,000 miles, and in really nice original condition. Bikes of this era do seem to be increasing in value.. 44T/BBB are helping/not helping lol
@@woooster17 I like older bikes i just started riding this year I have a 01 katana I'm tired of it after 1 month I'll call the srad a major upgrade for me
@@woooster17 ride safe 🏍
I feel old sometimes watching this stuff. I did the whole SRAD ZXR ZX7R ZX9R thing in the day. Highside, low side and flip to the full...They were easier days to go quick and not go to prison. I still have my 96 WT SRAD. But things have moved on for the better. Just not on the road.
Just watched 27 minutes of a couple guys mounting some trick new wheels on an old Ninja. Brilliant stuff, loved every minute of it.
The intense action and professional recommendations unfolding at around 15:30 make me laugh so much that the tears are running. Love it!!!!
Cheeks just hit the cold seat, just in time for a vid!
Poo squad unite 👏💪🪵 🚽
Same

These BBB videos just makes me love my 97' 750 SRAD even more! Both machines are a great representation of their time!
BBB with James these are the best videos
These two guys have slowly become my favorite to watch. Good content. Humor. Cool bikes. Love it
God that ZX7R bring back some great memories for me. I've had R1's, ZX9's and own a MT01. But the ZX7R is prob still my favorite
My buddy owned a ZX-7... That looks GREAT! Nicely done!
I found this channel, watched the original BBB and then bought an 2001 R1 after an 8 year break from biking. Truly inspiring and great craic. Keep up the good work lads. 👍🏻
TEAM NINJA love these episode's at JHS they are just pure gold 👍👍👍
Just casually smashing the like button even before watching the whole thing.
Don't we all do that?
I watched this 4 times already, please do more shop build videos on the regular, make it longer, this is like therapy

love it, great to see James looking so well.
Just had my 98 ZX-7R safetied and tuned and looking forward to my bolting on my goodies over the winter
Always enjoy the JHS shop vids.
Its the old exotica and Brit bikes in the background that perk my interest.
James must have a bit of a local rep for working on the older vintage/classic stuff.
Be great to do a JHS vlog on those bikes one day, along with owner permission.
I fell in love with a 2000 ZX-7R a few years ago. It was the black/silver livery and was in stock condition except for slip-on that had a broken hanger due to vibration. I picked it up cheap and rode it around marveling at its massive weight and the balls it must of taken to ride one of these in WSB in anger. I am long time Ducati 996S owner which was tiny compared to this ZX-7. Yet the ZX-7 used its mass to hold a line as Newton's second law suggests. What a big hunk of metal.
Heavens to Betsy, I was sweating like a 44 baguette on Jason Stathams plate when Teresa May was swinging the mags around in the shop. Good job team
Good to see you guys back together again doing proper videos 👍👍👍
I am very excited for this one. Thanks guys for putting in the hard work. Keep the great videos coming.
I had a zx7r back in the day and really enjoyed it but it was a heavy underpowered bike. Was looking for a zx9 motor for it but the bike was stolen before I got the motor. Bought a new RC51 in 03 and still have it. Only 4200 miles on her. Good times.
Could watch these BBB vids all day, keep them coming please.❤️
Keep up the great work lads! Its awesome how much joy can be had with these relics! Chris, you seem much happier recently and its great to see after how open you have been with us in the past! Keep up the top banter!!
Thank you for bring back the Beast, 12x AMA Superbike Champion, Hand crafted by the Gods themselves, and fueled from the hopes and tears of unfortunate Honda, and Suzuki owners, the Mighty ZX7R. RESPECT!
James looking good💪🏼, love all these goodies for the bike keep this type of content coming gents I love it
"Something for the weekend sir" hahahaha 😂🤣 These garage videos are superb, just epic banter lmao
Buncher half way through, all been there Boyz xoxo
Love the videos got myself a kawasaki zx6r 2001
Race teams back in the day had zx7rs at 160kg/160bhp, now that's s 7r I wanna ride!
Race trim shaves a lot of unnecessary weight from the street trim. Plus, those engines were literally kitted with factory race bits. Like gear driven cams, custom cam lobe profiles, timing, aluminum everything, crank balancing. Come take a look at the zxforums in the zx7 subsection. Look for a sticky thread started by ccmhunt. Beautiful bikes on the forum.
@@MattBruzdziak Thanks for the thread recommendation, it looks like a dream-spec build!
I reckon you should powder coat the swing arm when you do the forks as well, great video as always guys
This is the inspiration I needed to rebuild my wrecked zx7
part 2 hope is coming soon.The zx7r was my first bike....it has a special place in my heart.
Great effort lads on the constant content 👏🏻
I just added the RCS 19 Corsa Corta mc to my K5 Suzuki. Behind the rubber bung on the lever is the ratio adjustment. 18,19,20 mm. The master bolt has a 1.0 thread pitch though unlike all Japanese bikes which use 1.5 pitch.
Lovely! And its weird to see a set of S21's i ran those for a few years abd had some really fun times on them. All thanks to you guys actually.
Another great vid. Bought a 96 SRAD off the back of this to restore. Great content as always......loving ALs "Tyson Fury" look.....
I've had both bikes...loved the kwaka, hated the gixer...good to see you both back BTW...long overdue!
I remember few year ago before Baron channel exploded talked with you about golden era superbikes content. Just awesome you guys bought bikes back there is something about these bikes. I still own my first "big bike" yzf750r love it
Edit: about weight part. I swaped rearswing arm, wheels, forks, brakes ofc, for R6r save quite a lot of weight its about 5-10kg only on the wheels.
Also I've got Akrapovic SS headers for zxr750 might fit ZX7R.
I’m only here for the ZX7, they are just so beautiful
Leave it to 44teeth to jumpstart a whole industry... RESTOMOD MOTORCYCLES 💪🏼👏🏻🏁
Love this sort of content!
Those wheels are incredible! I’d love to get a set just to feel the difference they make. Maybe someday. 🍻
Thanks guys. Retro bikes + 44 teeth= great video
Infectious! That's what U R! In a good way. Cheers again geezers. Pete Italy x
I was laughing my ass off not even 30 seconds into this video. I absolutely adore your content.
You guys should put a proper ceramic coating on those beautiful wheels. Helps from stone chips and easier to clean!
Top notch boys. Love the humor between you three!
Depressing imprisonment in Hong Kong, raining, nothing to do, no work because government eefed up my business, and was off to get a rope and select a rafter when I watched this and it cheered my day. I’ll get the rope tomorrow.
This is exactly what I needed today, thanks guys. Stay safe.
Chris, Chris, Chris, the dymag has the sprocket on it....Chris....
Holly cow those dymag wheels. Would love to have these on my 7R too. Will be nice to get your feedback on the ride to know if the price is really worth it as it doubles the price of the bike :) !
Bro I cant with you guys the editing involved cracks me up every time gospel music cut short with a fart 😂
I love the three spoke style on my zx7r and fit the Zx10r gen 5 on front (with the brembos) plus a fireblade wheel at the rear. almost 4 kg less overall and very happy about new improved handling! Shame on kawasaki did not propose a i.e. version of this amazing model
The 9R engine and platform is a peach, you hooligans!
A proper strong motor and great chassis. With a small bit of engine work it’s just as fast as the original gsxr 1000, make no mistake.
EEEEE!!! We have been spoilt rotten with these uploads, cheers boys i thoroughly enjoy your videos,👍👍
9:54 That pursed smile look could sell quite well if made into a poster and labled 'Sue Perkins'. lol!
Yes the boys are back doing what they do best .
Cant wait to see the zx7 and gsxr lighter, faster, giz fested 👍🏼
Great channel, great characters. Bit of David walliams about the one chap.
Love these episodes...more please
I think the budget bike battle was the best thing ever to happen in my life! Idk what i would do without it! 🥺😂🔥🤙🏼
I can't wait to see the end product, always had a soft spot for the zx7r but never had one.
Looking forward to the next one of these....I have a stock ZX7R P7 which I love....interested to see the enhancements you make....
I seriously need that T shirt 😍 Request lads: Can we please have some two stroke content… 💨💨💨💨
That would be ace.. I had a KR-1 and RGV back in the early 90s! 👍🏼
This was great, i really enjoyed this - more of this type please!
Good to see the team back together....
Team Green looking great!! Stay safe guys!
Can't wait... good times ahead.
You put Dymags. On a SRAD....
I want to scoff at this, but I love it.
Band is back together.
excited now to see what you girls get upto, I also can't wait to get in to Europe on my bike, keep up the work girls!
I've got a really poorly 7r currently being rebuilt. I wasn't sure whether to make some weight savings or keep it all original. I was leaning towards original but now you've got me thinking
Enjoying the banter pluss interesting to see what can be done to theis bikes and comparing them to today's 600s
These style vids are by far the best ones you guys do
Been waiting for this video for far to long 🥰 I need a 90s toy but can’t decide between them.
the "Mmmph~" content that i really appreciate 😂
YES PLEASE. Been looking forward to this.
Can’t wait to see the SRAD upgrades, I have a 600 Barry Sheene replica and I love it, pity I can’t put a picture on here 😢
Just started watching a few of your vids absolutely loving the content and the banter between you two guys, going to do a binge watch on your channel, keep up the great content 👏👏👏👏
Please let me cerakote or powder coat that swing arm for you. I won't charge you but it pains me to know those stunning wheels are being hugged by that chipped swing arm. I'll do your fork lowers too. I do the coating for Lamb Chop Rides. Adam. 👍
Did I seriously just watch him “shine his bike” with WD40
@@Fee.1 wd40 make a decent bike polish. Mucoff is better in my opinion but wd40 is valid
@@MikePlays00 polish? You don’t leave a polish on you use it to….polish…the paint and then clean it off
@@Fee.1 anyone that washes their polish off has fundamentally misunderstand what polish is for.
My crash course in bike (or car) washing.
Step 1: wash when the paint is cool, not in direct sunlight and ideally away from bugs and other detritus.
Step 2: use the right tools, you can't go wrong with the 2 bucket method (one with soap, one with clean water to rinse dirt from your cloth), don't use dish soap, use a proper formulated wash. Also invest in a microfiber hand mitt, smooth sponge for your body work, and a sturdy brush for your wheels etc.
Step 3: start with the wheels, reason being you don't want muck flying up onto your already cleaned bodywork
Step 4: move from panel to panel, ideally top to bottom. Following the contours of your vehicle
Step 5: light mist from a hose or pressure washer before drying (yes, we get wetter to dry because science) use a microfiber towel to blot dry in as few blots as possible. (Air drying is the enemy, can make the finish streaky with water spots)
Step 6: this is where you'd use clay etc if you were so inclined.
Step 7: start polishing apply where necessary and use a shammy cloth (or microfiber as Chris was) to gently buff it out.
Step 8: this is where you apply wax if you were so inclined
Step 9: beer and pride in a job well done.
TL;DR don't wash off polish, buff it out
Can I get the used Spain tyres? 😜 no one can afford the dynamag wheels on their SRAD and zx7… too expensive. Are there any other cheaper alternatives?
the 'see you next time' really gets me :( need more BBB!!
Aah... This takes me back.. I had a set of marvic penta 2 wheels on my srad. AMAZING! had to sell when e had a kid.... Kids a teenager now and I still can't afford another set... sad times
Finally BBB is back!!! I hope you'll be able take those naughty bikes abroad! Nice weight reduction too. Proud ex SRAD 600 1999 and ZX-9R owner
Need the next upgrade vid... these are great 👍🏼
There she is again, my childhood dream bike (zx7r) 😍
I love me some good old fashioned Baron Von Grumble content!!!
I'll buy the 44t calendar for my lockup
2:24 that 2nd Gen Aprilia Tuono 1000 Factory is beautiful 😍 Edit: 12:44 1st Gen Tuono 1000😍
About time you dropped this one been waiting 😍
Love the slow mo nigella moments 😁
