@@keahiread4586 hi mate. Sorry, no idea about the seat - it's a cheap ebay looking thing. It does work with some of the stock holes in the frame, but the chances of buying one to fit are slim as my tank also has custom mounts.

@DenwayCC yeah I noted the custom mounts from one of your other videos, did you have to get those certed?

@@keahiread4586 No, I didn't. The 3D printed mounts are not far from original style and the base bolt has only been moved back a couple inches.

Cheers mate. Yeah - was a good buy. I'm looking forward to putting it in the bike. Shortest day has just passed down our end, so shouldn't be long now. 'Workshop' is good enough for me. Can always be bigger, but you work with your size. We all know it. 😁

@@DenwayCC Thats right your seasons are 180 from ours.Im in Buffalo New York usa . Met some people from down your way years ago, hung out at a motocycle rally with them great people.. one of the must do things in my life is to see your land 🙂ride safe ride far mike

I'm a fraction of the gentleman you are Sebby!

Thankyou! 😁

Sounds great! 👌

Thanks mate! Gs is still sitting unloved.. haha. I shall start organising to get it done.

Thanks mate!

Cheers Sandeep. It was a great day.

Thanks mate!

It was a very slow run with the amount of bikes. I have a camera under my engine mount on the CX, and one on the front shock for the RD. These ones work well. Money talks though - we are using Go Pro 3's and I have a 4 on my helmet, but nicer cameras do a way better job. It's way easier for me to edit with the 4 as the footage is higher resolution and the go pro footage seems more stable. I have seen what the most recent go pro 10's can do, and a 360 camera is even better. Might be something to save up for, but if you are buying one definitely try for a nice camera. 😁

@@DenwayCC Thank you very much for the real world view on this I can not ,ever get good pointers on this. Again thank you from me and the boys. Geist Wulf

Nope, but that's a beautiful road. I took my van over there. Poor thing overheated.

It's alright 😏

His better looking pocketbike cousin? 😁

😅

This is a mix of both CX and GL parts. Registered as a 79CX500, has the dual front discs from an 82GL.

Thanks mate and thanks for your comment. 👍

Dude! Thanks! ❤️

Haha. This here had the same issue. I was going to film a small ride, but I broke the rip-start while filming this. Easy fix. Thanks for watching!

I'm glad you enjoyed.

I can't believe Mike Tyson has seen one of my videos!

Thanks mate

Hi Lucas. I've built the bike from an 82gl400 custom and 79CX500, but I'm not sure what parts were original on either bikes as they were both Frankenstein bikes.

@@DenwayCC thanks for the reply, I will check around on the e web.....I'm currently building a 83 CX 500 cafe racer

@@lukasgarage956 awesome! They're pretty good bikes to learn from and heaps of online forums to help

Thanks! I didn't have the time to make something like the push/pull that other CX's have, but I'm proud of this!

Haha, it's in there mate. Before I wrap them 😁

Thanks mate! I'm thinking some rear sets are the next thing. Maybe a new seat.

oh man! I want a cub 50 so bad.

We certainly are. Where are you from?

Hi there mate, I used a combination of autosol aluminium polish, brass wire wheel, scouring polish wheel and a lot of elbow grease, patience and time. Things similar to this www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/toolpro-toolpro-cotton-polishing-cones-medium-assorted/386606.html?cgid=SCN01011102

scouring pads are a great help for getting the grime off also.

@@DenwayCC Thanks!

Yeah, I put a bunch of clear on the tank, but I haven't put clear on the aluminium. I expect I may get some aluminium oxide

Hey there mate. I bought my stator from RMstator, which is a company in Canada. I purchased on a local website, and I can't see any items listed anymore. Here's their website rmstator.com/en_us/ Good luck with your build, dude. I learnt heaps.

Enzo!

@@DenwayCC Yup! funny eh? just picked it up from whanganui today. its gunna need a bit, first up grey oil ! :( So im not hassling you constantly, what forums did you lurk in so i can re read your stuff ? CX500forum?

@@PointyLittleStick I used facebook a lot - CX/GL500/650 community and Honda CX500/650 V twins. One of them is based around NZ, so very handy. Motofaction.org are very good for sorting out issues. If I had to give you somewhere to start, I recommend completing a 'triple bypass' on the bike. motofaction.org/motorcycles/honda-cx-gl/triple-quadruple-bypass-parts-list-cx500-gl500-cx650-gl650/

I hope you're well!

Thanks mate! Good luck with your build!

Hey mate - looks to be a standard Amazon, ebay style seat. My tank mounts are slightly modified so it fits well. When I head out to the garage in the evening I'll find you the brand 😁👌

I pulled them apart. All the jets etc, then rebuilt them? 🤷‍♂️

@@DenwayCC I know you did the job, but why didn’t replace anything?and the title says “first start”????

@@carlosgooglemaps94 why replace something that doesn't need replacing? I also did replace the idle jet and an oring from a second set of carbs I had. If you watch the video you can see the first start since stator change and since putting engine back in frame.

@@DenwayCC my mistake!, I see you started the bike now, don’t get me wrong, I love the bike 👍🏻

Yeah, sorry you have an issue, but it's a pretty easy fix. The bike is running very well now!

Hi mate. It would depend where you are in the world. I always keep an eye out on Facebook marketplace for wrecked CX's, but if you're looking for some aftermarket parts MurraysCarbs do some good stuff. The CX will share a few parts with CB's from the same era too - so consider that. There are a lot of CX forums around too.

Why anything?

@@DenwayCC true. But moccasins and motorcycles seems a bit odd. Most riders wear boots instead of soft soled moccasins

@@larsrapunzel2297 so what is your point??, he is not riding, just working on the bike, no need to wear boots when you are off the bike, isn’t it??

@@carlosgooglemaps94 moccasins are dangerous footwear

Thanks!!

Thanks! 😁

Hey! Yes we did! Check out our Instagram. Was a busy year for us and not much more of the build got filmed unfortunately. What would you like to see? Cheers DCC.

Hey mate - Halden did. The video is uploaded on the channel. If you've got any questions flick us a message on instagram! :) (Sorry for the late reply)

Hi Ken. I spayed a bit of silicon spray onto it. It more than likely won't last too long, but with 40 years of sunfade it's probably the best outcome.

Not at all, man. Thanks for ye comment!
