These very cool bikes remind me of a Quad I had when I was 16. An 86 Suzuki w/78 YZ 400 2 stroke engine! We called it the Quadzilla Killa!! It was very fast! Love your content
I got a great one at home, 1975 Yamaha YZ80D modified frame, forks, front wheel and rear swing arm, 1980 Suzuki RM80 high rise steel tank with an RM370 seat, year unknown? a Honda CT110 engine with a modified PK Ripper exhaust and a Husqvarna rear wheel mated to a CT110 sprocket.
Chris, LOVE IT LOVE IT! by the time i got to the ttm, I ran outa tissue ;) i'm running around like a puppy for part #2 If anybody made one with a couple of brackets and a little welding; I'd NEVER sling a leg over it, I might lose it. No joke! I built a few, love every second of it. I can't speak for anybody else, only me. To build one proper, welding was the last step. I'm not say'n to be mechanical engineering wizard but it took basic geometry for center of gravity wheelbase, rake trail even foot peg, even a dab of physics; motor placement, sprung wt vs un-sprung...BUT WAIT!!!! 90% of all that blablabla is one word.. math...the 10% is the best part; trial and error. By learning what works and not what works for you. Now You've learned everything I just said. to build another one :) Free of charge lol For me, it's like why would someone climb mount Everest?" Cuz it's there" :) All of those bikes are BEAUTIFUL works of functional art. It may not sparkle, but for me; Jawa/J.A.P. is the SIKKEST!..! btw VMX issue #17 has some sic home brewed bikes.
Chris, my fav'rt bike Please tell owner that a yank from the states loves it and the mad skills to pull it off. it's beeeaaaauuuuttttiiiifffuuulll just the way is. I look at it , my first thought was trench digger!
Hiya I've been watching your channel for a while but never have I seen a yamaha tt350 in any videos, don't you think the tt350 is a classic ? I'm only asking as I've got one, I've just brought it into the 21st century with polished supermoto wheels, disc brake rear end, red fat bars, lots of polished parts, stainless front pipe, polished yzf rear exhaust, full tank stickers proper old school cool 😎 let's see a video on the tt cheers lee
Lee Harris. - JAP Hi Lee All the bikes in my video’s are machines I’ve filmed myself and as such I don’t have a TT350 in my library at this time and it’s been more than a year now since I’ve been able to get out and film new bikes because of the pandemic but rest assured if I come across one in the future I’ll post a video of it. And thanks for watching my content.
Europe definitely takes vintage racing more seriously than the US. 90% of US vintage guys would build something bad ass like anyone of those bikes here and never ride it
The Jawa gives me a big WHY moment but art is like that. Great stuff.

The craftsmanship displayed in this video is just remarkable. Beautiful work!

Awesome, love this channel, thanks for the trip down memory lane.
❤️❤️❤️❤️😀😀😀🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍
the thriump takes me back when my brothers raced side -cars(cross)
For Pete's sake give us a demo ride on each bike......hate being teased!!!! I absolutely loved the Trico!

TRICO WOW COOL
Love this channel already only found it and subbed today 👏🏻
Put a KX450 engine in my Honda Elsinore. Nobody beat me to the first turn!
Everybody beat me to the end of the race. Wicked monster! 🤣
It's funny the jawa tilted back in the frame is what yamaha do today with there modern thumpers.
Máquinas lindas
The hybrid Jawa is very nice.
topari01 Believe me it goes a lot faster than it looks. This bike can hold its own against more modern machinery.

I'd really like to own the Maico framed Rotax. I bet that's an amazing bike. But with a YAMAHA front brake
Good video, would be good to hear it running
Barney Betelgeuse Barney you should really take the time to watch the entire video and you will hear it running.
