For 47 years of my life I didn't have a motorcycle. I buy one old Honda CB750 and now I find myself excited to watch videos of strangers rebuilding their vintage bikes. Is that how this disease works? : ) I'm digging this one week build, Tyler. I watched 90 percent of the Hackaweek CB750 build videos and found them really helpful when doing things to my own bike. Also... If you could do a video about changing front break pads on an old Honda CB, that would be really helpful. Maybe sometime after this week long build.

I rode a CB500 4cyl up pikes peak in 1973

@jackyyeung7903 3 года назад

Watching this build series again! Your videos are very helpful

@waynemartinez8620 4 года назад

DUDE! I always enjoy your channel but you have really peaked my interest with this one week build! Can't wait to see the outcome!

@stevemasters9539 4 года назад

So....today I painted my frame (after watching your video last night) that vht chassis roll bar paint is awesome!!!! My next job tomorrow is to start on the front end...then I put your day 2 video on and it starts with you talking about stripping the front end🤣🤣. I very much doubt I’ll complete my build in 7 days but great inspiration and as always buddy loving your work!

@jamiewebber8091 4 года назад

This guy building a bike in one week and I'm over here, a year later and still haven't finished mine... great video series. always enjoy this channel.

@garydinn8793 4 года назад

Really impressed with the vapor blasting results on that front shock. Being able to bring that level of finish to a job must be very satisfying!

@roosterbasher 4 года назад

I use a linoleum cutter and cut the sidewalls of the tire. I recently did it to 40 year old tires that were impossible to get of normally. But it was easy with the bulk of the tire gone :) Saw the trick on youtube.

@rayworx 4 года назад

Another thing to say..... I like to see you wearing sound and eye protection!! Trust me.... you'll be grateful for it in the years to come. No one appreciates it when you say 'HUH?WHAT?' every time they talk to you.

@shawnmahmoudi8705 4 года назад

for someone like me with an old honda project bike this is like the Library of HONDA love it. Thanks

@timcameron3984 4 года назад

Yo dude. Love the vids all the way from Perth Western Australia. I’m a motorcycle Tech for Bmw Motorrad, and I can tell you a tyre machine saves lives it’s an absolute life saver!

@christopherjaujou2235 4 года назад

You are putting out videos faster then I can watch them ,keep up the good work !!

@dirtyscavanger 4 года назад

Wow, what a lucky duck. I'm looking at 4' inches of snow still on the ground and 20 degree temps. It's a week long build pace yourself and keep whacking at it.

@DesmoMarcel 4 года назад

Yo Taylor. Thanks for the content, enjoying this series. An observation though.The jump cuts leave a gaping hole and make the viewer disappointed (IMO) There were a lot more in yesterday’s vid...in this one it goes from needing to do the tire to the tire being done. Even if you were to just timelapse or speed ramp through that section it would tell the story better for us. I like to see what you do, and the process...most the time more then the final outcome. Just my .02 cents. I know you’re probably more focused on your business end of things then the actual RU-vid channel though so you probably don’t have a ton of time to put into it. Would have been cool to see the process of blasting the forks. Btw, can I send you my forks bottom halves to clean, those looked so much better!

@michaelsams450 4 года назад

Really enjoying this series so far though it must be exhausting to maintain this pace. Keep up the great work!

@10trimble 4 года назад

I removed and replaced some tires on my old Honda a while back, and dont have a tire machine either. I found a pail, looks like a 5gal. but was a bit taller. Got a couple bags of redi-mix concrete, mixed it up and filled the pail almost to the top. While concrete was still wet, centered a wheel over top of the pail and shoved a 3 ft. metal rod down through the hub right to the bottom of the pail and let it set. When the concrete set, it held the wheel securely and still allowed it to rotate. I could lever it pretty hard and the pail wouldn't budge. It will do in a pinch, and so cheap, when you get your tire machine, you can throw it away.

@grantferguson251 4 года назад

Really good series so far. I cant wait for the finale.

@gezokane3482 4 года назад

This is my first post. Ive watched all your videos and enjoy them all. Ive restored many Hondas to show standard condition and never had a problem finding the correct silver paint for the engine. Some Honda dealers sell it and you can always buy online. Dont spoil it with aluminium paint, its too bright. Find the right paint dude. Greeting from Australia. Keep up the good work.

@MicJaguar 4 года назад

Gun metal gray would look sweet on that engine. Darker but not black. Man, wish i could have you help me finish my 1975 CB550F. Did a lot of work but still have some issues and no time or space to work at my apartment. You seem to know your Kraft sir. I have self learned a lot but i can admit when in beat and km at that point.

@davidknows3320 4 года назад

That vapor blaster does a nice job.

@motoshedman 4 года назад

Invest invest invest! Tiremachine is so amazing. You'll love it!

@daveb1963 4 года назад

I suggest waring up tyre prior to reoval.

@SixWheelsDown 4 года назад

motorcycle tire machines only work with mag rims. i wouldn't put a spoked rim onto one. they're the same as a regular tire machine but they have a different type of clamp for motorcycle rims. You can ometimes get a way with using a car tire machine on a motorcycle rim but you may damage it. They sell the clamp to put onto a regular machine if that's what you have and are looking to have a machine that can do both types of tires. same withthe balancer, it will also need a special motorcycle style axel to go through the wheels. happy hunting!

@rrz464 4 года назад

Been waiting with bated breath! The frame looks great now that its dried! *edit: The top of the triple looks really cool with the skeletonized view. And even with the shorter vid today, yes you got some long process stuff completed. Looking forward to tomorrow's fun!

@krisharben4297 4 года назад

what you said about the clipons, i had a little aprillia rs 50 when i was 16, and i did snap the right clip on off while riding. didnt crash though lol

@richie9777 4 года назад

I think the chunky front tyre will look cool...

@Jbop9312 4 года назад

Keep the grind up Taylor! You’re doing great.

@markharris8718 4 года назад

Enjoying this looking forward to the next one.

@bradmullins229 4 года назад

Cool stuff, will be interesting to see further developments. Hope that 110 front tire works out well, good looking for sure. Cannot wait to rework a CB myself -Brad

@rayworx 4 года назад

I spent a lifetime turning a wrench. Now I'm retired I spend too much time looking at this damn computer screen. Anyway.... about a tire machine for tube-type tires, wouldn't want to do it. Tubeless.... yeah, ok. But the only way to try to work the machine with a tube-type tire would be first: if you are removing it know that your old tube is going to get wasted. On installation of the new tire you can install the tire on the rim (on the tire machine) and then install the new tube BUT THEN YOU HAVE TO INSTALL THE BEAD ONTO THE RIM WITH TIRE TOOLS ONLY!! You'll rip the new tube trying to use the machine. Nice shop... like the fact you have bead blaster and vapor blast.

@bwholz 4 года назад

I'm loving this build keep up the great work.

@williamcleveland9218 4 года назад

I have a harbor freight tire machine. It works great for the size tire your working on. It does not work on larger tires like the new goldwing or harley roadking rear tires.

@steveetapp6916 4 года назад

Would be nice to see something different like all blacked out built bike...with some kind of black mate and black gloss!

@murismulahalilovic6371 4 года назад

Keep it up man! Great video

@bluehazeboy 4 года назад

Absolutely top job 🤘🤘

@lawnjunkie5167 4 года назад

Taylor, keep up the great work! My shocks are in about the same condition as the one you showed in this one, right around min. 4:20. I was wondering if you could share the grit number you used on your grinder disk? Also, did I see you change to a "polishing" pad? Did you use any product such as Blue Magic metal polish? I am using your series of videos as a reference for my 1973 Honda CB500K2 project. I look forward to your reply! Thanks!

@56Moto 4 года назад

Love this build week series. What song is this @ 1.40

@mzaidakbr 4 года назад

i really like ur vids! keep it up!

@spiffyg4939 4 года назад

Great videos...keep 'em coming! I don't have a blast cabinet and no room for one in the garage. Will a brass wire wheel do a decent job on rusty/oxidized fork tubes, rims, etc.?

@dains2967 4 года назад

Hey I’m really looking in to starting one of these projects. What would you expect to pay for a cb550 in the condition you found it in ?

@danaowen9014 4 года назад

The forks look like new.That vapor blast does a great job.What is vapor blasting?

@mikeboutin2078 4 года назад

Keep up the good work. You mention vapour blasting, what is that? I am familiar with sandblasting. Thanks.

@djcristian84 4 года назад

2:23 - is it possible to vapour blast that rust off the inner tube?

@MikeJones-rc8eh 4 года назад

keep im comin man

@tomdangerfield1532 3 года назад

What size rims were they that you put the tyres on? I’m thinking of doing the same by going up a size of tyre but not sure wether this will be too much

@RUBENCABA 4 года назад

What sandpeper do you use to remove the paint of the frame? Tanks

@juliantagle2766 4 года назад

Awesome build series! Does anyone know if he keep standard OEM length of the forks or does he shorten them?

@TheBanjo9386 4 года назад

I have a question maybe someone could help me out. Building a cb350f /pod filters /4 into 1 exhaust what size jets do I need

@banditnev 4 года назад

You asked if it is easier on a tire machine, you bet it is.

@BUILDNIGHT 4 года назад

I don’t want to sound negative, but I am very curious as to how you can make money at this... I rebuild bikes as a hobby, but its expensive. I figure you’ll have about $3k in the bike, parts, and labor. For one week, I would think you’d need to make at least $2k on the bike to cover the cost of the shop expenses and your salary. That means you need to get at least $5K for the bike. I don’t know about there in Texas, but I can tell you that its not gonna happen here in Massachusetts. You won’t see anyone spending more than about $3K on an old Honda CB out here. The numbers just don’t add up. Your thoughts?

@dandydon6049 4 года назад

Metalman 329 Great point!

@aldupuis5197 4 года назад

Agreed

@mikeeger7581 4 года назад

To me it handles way different not good I’m going back to a 100

@spiffyg4939 4 года назад

I had a '76 550 (got it new...yes I'm old). I ran a 110 on the front for a while and was not happy, either. It really felt weird.

@markwilliams9793 4 года назад

What eye and dust protection are you wearing? Cheers.

@bikerantics5001 4 года назад

Hi, you asked about tyre changing tools, the one I use is a max2h evo2. The following video shows me changing the rear tyre on my V-Strom 1000, from about 5:50mins is the actual change, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rE1WoKX-GP8.html I know my sheds a lot smaller than your workshop, so this changer appealed to me because its easy to fold away. Its really is easy to use (even easier if its fixed down?!) and feels quality built, so hopefully it’ll last a lot of years. Hope this helps. Thanks for your videos, very entertaining, keep up the good work!

@geoffreybelk5968 4 года назад

Awesome work Taylor. YES! Tire Changer is well worth the $$$. I would have just cut the old tires off though. You're not gonna ever use them again, right? Can't for the next vid.

@callummcdonald3687 4 года назад

Where did you get your face shield?

@mikeeger7581 4 года назад

I don’t think that triple is safe it’s made the way it was to be as safe as needs to be you should have just bought a solid replacement one !!!!!! Thanks 🙏

@hugomedina8989 4 года назад

What brand vapour blaster is that?!

@hondacota4rt 4 года назад

Please don't paint the rims black. It would be too much for my taste. Some coke and tinfoil works wonders with cloudy/lightly rusted chrome parts.

@dandydon6049 4 года назад

Valentin Maissen yeah, those wheels don’t look that bad. I agree, the chrome looks much better.

@jamiewebber8091 4 года назад

Yeah I'm normally not a fan of chrome. But I think these wheels, with the new tires, would look amazing with the chrome cleaned up. Pretty quickly and easily too. I've done it before on an old bicycle wheel that was covered in rust. Crumbled up aluminum foil, apple cider vinegar and a lot of elbow grease. It looked brand new, i was shocked.

@joakimjansson9885 4 года назад

I watch every episode, done so for a good while now. But I have to say that I'm getting real bored with all the cb's. What is it, a year since you did something different? The Kawasaki, not the cars or the monkeys. Change it up please. But yeah, that's just my opinion.

@phlacoe 4 года назад

did you get any pitting in the fork tubes under the rust?

@randallmcdaniel1189 4 года назад

Enjoying this series. Keep up the great work Taylor

@oddis188 4 года назад

You should buy a soda/glassbead blasting nossle + bottle combo so that you could blast the engine outside the garage. Soda would be best you could just clean it with water afterwards
