Looks great! For the record... I would never get sick of classic Honda content. : )
^^what they said^^
i was gonna write the same thing
Exactly it's why I come to this channel lol
Same lol 😂
for the record.. the rest of us will
That's one of the coolest 550s I've ever seen. No joke. The color and chopped chrome fenders as well as wrap are spot on.
You nailed it ! 🎯💯
You should turn a modern crotch rocket into a cafe racer, that would be a really interesting series to watch!
That would be awesome. Or a late model sportbike drivetrain installed into a classic cafe racer-style chassis.
@@Cygnus307 sounds like a TON of fab work lol
This is so beautiful! I really like the style of the fenders on this one!
Dude, every time I watch the CB550 I learn something new. So, I would never get sick of Classic Hondas.
Who was tired of the Honda Stuff, That's why I'm watching Dude. How about doing a 90's 750 Nighthawk. Or maybe a 83 1100F 0r 900f there is so much Honda stuff out there to do. Try doing a 1967 CL 305 scrambler into a Flat Tracker, I raced mine back in the 60's. love to see another one.
Have been a fan of the CB550 from new. Really like how you really clean up all of the buttons and electronics. I can watch Honda stuff all the time. Really a big fan of how the vapor blasting make stuff that is almost 50 years old look brand new. Been watching for about a year now. Can’t wait for the new builds and how you put your spin on them.
Love the simplicity of the look of the bike. I realy like the finders.
Thats a beautiful blue on a great looking bike.... I’m excited to hear you’ve got some different material coming and I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the builds.
Looks and sounds phenomenal my dude! Couldn't get sick of seeing classic honda content either- especially when done so well!
Very nice bike. Great tank color. I have a stock '75 Cb550k and love the bike. I get lots of ideas watching your vintage Honda builds, and also never get tired of them. Cheers, Stay safe.🏍👍🇨🇦
Will neverrrr get sick of classic honda no matter the style! Love it
Beatiful build! Imo it looks the perfect balance between stock and café racer. That rear fender visualy ties the back to the front and the color is just perfect! 10/10
Classic CB content never gets old for me. I wish you did more 750's honestly. But I would hate for it to get stale for you and you bail on RUclips. We need you man.
That's the best looking CB you've done to date. Well thought-out and executed. It does sound awesome.
I agree. This one is the superest !
Yes, I agree too, I love how he abbreviated and tucked the rear guard/ fender rather than removing. It’s a nice hint or accent of where the bike came from.
Gorgeous bike. Super unique yet understated. You nailed it!
Looks great we never tire of any of your classic Honda,s or all bikes for that matter.👍
I just found your channel. You restore motorcycles and make them amazing again. Follow your passion, not what the nit-pickers want. Apparently, the older Hondas can be restored readily and I'd gladly watch you tear down and rebuild them over and over. Hell, in the back of my mind, I WANT a classic Honda that I could go day tripping with when New England weather allows for it.
Beautiful bike. I have a CB400/4 almost complete (to stock style) and ready to run, your videos keep me going!
never got bored by classic honda
This is a beauty and exactly what I'm planning for my rear fender setup. Well done! Love the channel.
I never get sick of the Honda videos
Mid 70’s I took one of these and modified, due to they were slow. Bored, Weber side drafts, change the gears in transmission and clutch and changed the rear gear setting, with 4 into 1 open pipes. Changed the front forks and rear shock, with oil tanks. High speed tires. My wife had a hard time keeping up with me in my Alfa Romeo. Fun to ride.
Wow, I love the style of this bike, well done. I've got a 1980 CB650 Which I hope to build into something like this one day. right now its got all the mods from the previous owner, some which I like, others I don't. He looked after it very well and kept all the service records right from when it was imported into my country so there's no problem using it every day. I notice I've got the some gauges as you too!
Honestly, I'm into triumphs, British bikes like BSAs, and Harleys. However, my first bikes were Honda CBs and Kawasaki KZs. Your style made me remember how much I loved those bikes.
One of my favorites of your builds
Your best one yet
Blue bomber is the bomb! That is the perf. Restoration ! Honda’s never get old, they just get better! ☺️👍🗽🇺🇸
Never get tired of the old school Hondas man. BUT........when are you gonna do a NEWER model 750. When I say newer.....I mean '93 cb750. I have one that I 'd love to have you go through!!!!
That is the most beautiful bike I've ever seen.
Great job on the 550, and great channel!! Thank you!!!
Love the classic honda content. You could always try a early goldwing or shadow 750 build since they are cheap and easy to find.
Right? I saw a few here in Florida for around 800
Congrats to the new owner, talk about a xmas morning state of excitement. Enjoy Dude👍👏🏆
Really luv ur work. Never get tired of watching !! Bike is awesome classic look. luv that chrome also.
Classic Honda’s ROCK!!!
Thanks, I owned the CB550 and love that bike
Thank you so much for taking the time to link your parts 🙏🏼
Looks absolutely amazing!👌
Nice ride! I really like it. I don't get sick of vintage Honda's either. But I am looking forward to your new videos. You do a great job. It doesn't matter what the make is. Watching you sort things out is always very interesting. Keep up the good work!
Absolutely gorgeous build
I'll never get sick of classic honda content! I just subbed tonight and have been binge watching for hours now lol came across the channel because I have an opportunity to buy a 77 cb550 for 300 bucks that needs a little work. Thinking about doing it 🤷
Never too many Classic Honda‘s. You have restore a lot of bikes. This is by far your best work and my favorite. Wish you had some video of making it. Hopefully one day soon I can get you to make one for me. Maybe once the world is back to normal. Keep up the great content. I subscribed to your channel cause I love the work you do, best on RUclips. Again, never too much Honda Classic! Be safe, Cheers from Canada!
Omg ! That thing is SWEET !! Perfection in my eyes ... I want one ☝️
My favorite bike you have done to date...thumbs up.
I dig the chopped rear fender!
Absolutely stunning.
That bike is amazing 🤩
Gotta say, this one may be my favorite of the ones I’ve seen from you. Nailed it! Ford Denim Blue? Who knew it would look so awesome?
I'd love to see the invoice and breakdown of costs on this bike. It's almost exactly what I want. Send it to me if you can please.
Taylor the main draw to your channel for me is the classic Honda builds that you do. I ride classic Hondas and don't care about the other brands IMO. Good video btw. :)
Beautiful build love it. Sounds great.
great video man, excited to see the new bikes, but never tired of the hondas tbh
Wow this bike has my heart racing. When I get my project cb I will come find you.
Brilliant build Taylor, and it sounds fantastic ......👌👍
Hope you and your fam are safe and warm, our apologies from Canada 🇨🇦
Beautiful. I miss my 550.
I'm doing a 72' Suzuki T500 with little experience. You should pioneer the way for me! Lol. Love your bikes and your channel, man. Keep it up!
This is kinda exactly what I want to do with my CB550 from '77!
Nice build! And thanks for the info on jetting. I juat picked up a '76 CB550K that someone got a start on to cafe it. Lot's of goodies, dynatek ignition, same header you have, decent paint, sidecovers in good shape. But I think I like the scrambler version and will go that way. Also I think the front fender brace is important on these old bikes, keeps the front end from getting all noodly when carving two lane roads.
Wow, very nice work. love it
Sweet ol`Honda
Nice job Taylor
Great job.. great look and color..
Beautiful ride,nice job
I've been like waiting to see you ride around town. one day I will get to see your builds lol
Fantastic bike.
Nice bike and the color is great..
Amazing looking bike! ❤️🔥
waiting for another build series!🙏🏾
Looks and sounds fantastic....
Collest classic bike projet so far 👌
Great build!
love the color
Gosh what a beautiful bike.
I have a cb550 that I hopefully will be replicating something like you have, I usually work on xs650's so changing it up a bit like you, keeping it fresh. Just finished a gs550, had a nightmare setting up the carb's. So will be selling that in the spring here in Wales UK to fund the cb550.
Beautiful bike
That’s one good looking bike 👍
Nice and clean. Who could get tired of Honda’s?
Great bike, would really enjoy to own and ride that. Nice work.
Vert nice , clean lines great colour 👍
A superb bike! I appreciate both the original look and the custom cafe racer, but only when Taylor does the latter. The sound is really nice.
I’d be interested in seeing u do a cafe racer convert to a modern Triumph Bonneville, I know they do the Thruxton, but what u do will be unique.
It does sound great..
Hi! from Australia ,hope you are well after the terrible time in Texas, be well regards Robert
super cool looking Can imagine steve McQueen riding this bike
It's cool that you've been able to find a niche market for these Brat / Cafe Racer / Tracker builds... Around here, people want to BUILD these kinds of bikes, but no one wants to BUY them... People only want to buy "original" Honda CB's in stock condition. Otherwise, they're buying much newer bikes. Weird how different geographical areas have their own individual markets.
Great looking bike, I love the attention to detail, looking forward to your next project. I would like to see you do your magic on a old Kawasaki KZ650 😎
Have you ever tried to make a large storage box in the empty space? Just curious what it would look like & how practical it might be. If not maybe a cool project for a future episode.
Great looking bike would love to try and build something like this
Sweet ride!
Nice Squareback across the street :)
I wish this guy would go through my 73 cb750!
That blue is primo
This bike looks amazing! I love the chopped fenders in chrome. Especially the rear, that looks fantastic. Do you have a video that shows how to do that? I have a '72 500/4 that is a loooooong and pathetic project bike at this point but this bike is closer to what I'd like it to eventually look like than anything else I've ever seen. Thanks!
I too , never get tired of classic Honda’s. I’m looking forward to seeing what you’ve got up your sleeve this year. Oh btw...how is the lathe coming along??
great looking bike! lucky baster who gets this bike. keep going with the classic content brother! I understand you might need to adapted but don't change your content too much.
Just beautiful! Like what I would do
that was beautiful
beautiful!
I want you to build me one just like that! Looks great man.
wow good job
