Every bike builder is going to be trolled by the bike spirit.
Once i'm about to install my old headlight switch kit, but couldn't find it anywhere. I usually put my bike's parts in a box with labels. Lucky you if you can order the part that you lost, but mine is a custom wiring switch that you have to put together yourself.
I gave up looking for it and wire a new one, install it on the bike. And then, when i'm about to clean up the working space, store the extra wire and connectors into the spare electrical stuff, i found it, Nicely stored, in a plastic bag, complete with the proper connectors and fuses, ready to plug & play.
Yep.... We've all been there.
Great work man
Superb.
Great work man. Literally encourages people to get their hands dirty to make their own dream bike. Thanx for the video.
I loose stuff all the time, and my workshop is soooo much smaller than yours lol. And i always find it when ive given up and started something else. Chain guard looks great, top craftsmanship again 👍
Thank you mate, it’s easy to do, it’s not often I loose things but when I do I learn from it because it’s such a waste of good garage productivity time. Nothing is fool proof unfortunately. On the positive side we tend to find other things we forgot about 👍
I thought I was the only one who would lose parts, only to find them when I buy a replacement!!....nice vid of a cool project!!
You just gave me some inspiration and I certainly appreciate that! Yours came out great 👍🏼
That really inspires me to keep making more videos like this so thank you
Great job on that chain guard! Looks great!
Thank you mate, I had a lot of design changes in this. It seems to be popular 😁
Love it.. mate, the final weld bit, when you went to music, the music a bit loud....had to rush to the volume button...
Thanx mate, also thank you for the feedback. It happens sometimes due to me trying to improve my production using different programs and equipment. Gotta keep you entertained 😁
Editing to the best like that takes a lot of work so I’m glad you picked up on that bit ;)

Hi Dan I definitely can relate to losing something and then finding it later on. We moved in May and I can't find anything. I've bought things because I can't find it for it to turn up ( get found) just days later. Crazy aye.
Keep up the good work. Always appreciate your knowledge and attention to detail .
I have a quick question , what cleaning solution do you use when ultrasonic cleaning for carbs. Also, where did you get your cleaner from?
Cheers.
Love ur vids
I have a keeway cafe racer 150cc motorcycle and im looking forward to ur vids and for guides on building
Greetings from Philippines
Another Great video! Thanks Dan, your the Man!
Thanks mate, glad you enjoy them
Can you advise a fuel tank will fit a g model zx6r. The underside goto fit over the air box. thanks.. 🙂
Sweet design Dan . Don't suppose you found the seat latch in that box aswel as the side cover . Lol .great idea with a large sized sonic cleaner , I went for the same make and got a 6lt some time ago absolutely the best addition to any shop. Now off for brekkie . Cheers Dan
Looking for inspiration for a chain guard for a XS650. Looks like I’ve found it.
Excellent job with the chain guard Dan. Looks very trick mate and great job on the carbs. Dan could you tig weld before you got the new welder ? if not was it a big learning curve, as I just about to have a go at tig. Ride safe, Cheers
After 6 months of no adjustable bevel, trying to "train" my eye, who am I kidding, I'm buying one...🤪 Beautiful chain guard - design and execution, btw.
Thank you so much mate, I have about 5-6 adjustable bevels and keep using the cheapest one I own for some strange reason 🤷♂️ does the same thing just don’t use it on red hot steel. Don’t ask how I know that lol 😂
Mad skills, Mate! Hope you are well and stay safe there... 🏍👍🏍
Thank you mate, yes I’m great 🙂
Hope you are well brother, You have watched so many of my videos, do you think you will start one of you own?
@@CafeRacerGarage I enjoy each and every one, Dan. I’ll leave the vid making to the experts like you! I’m just a student. 😎
What belt grinder do you use? Stationary one.
Haha. Can so relate. I lost my keys. Big bunch. Looked everywhere! Gave up. Found them in the vegetable drawer of my fridge. Where I had looked twice at least! Ridiculous!
You said the flat bar (top piece) was stainless steel, was the bar stock stainless as well?
What brand and type torch head you are using in the video? Thanks great content.
Just a map gas head at the local hardware store
Spot on, on the losing stuff and ordering online and finding said lost stuff, the biggest I can think of for me was a pair of canvas panniers 🙄, now I got 2, keep up the good work, amazing videos as always 👍 oh,,, which solution do you use for your ultrasonic cleaner? As I got a wee one
Thank you so much mate, now you have to buy a bike to fit those panniers too 🤔
In regards the the solution for the ultrasonic cleaner, i’m still testing a few things but One of my subscribers recommended simple green aircraft.
Let me know how it goes🙂
Heey mate, I have a problem with my Honda CM400T. One cilinder wont fire up.... Can you help me? I am from holland! Love the videos ! Keep it going!
Check spark, fuel and Air in. It’s probably one of those three things
Those bevels are cheap & handy. Nice job m8 : )
You’re not wrong I have about 5-6 but keep grabbing the cheapest one I own 🤷♂️ not sure why but it still works perfectly fine.
I love your chain guard. I am having a hard time finding and getting someone to make me one. I'm in the U.S. and I would love to have one like your.
I have a 1977 & 79 kawasaki Kz 650 I'm restoring. If you're up to it I all aboard!
Thank you so much mate. This is Something for an experienced fabricated to build but it can be done yourself.
I currently don’t do custom made parts for customers like this. It’s even harder when the bike isn’t with you to get the bolt holes lined up. Here’s an idea for you. Why don’t you try and fabricate what you want out of cardboard or tig welding wire just for a template.
Once you have the overall design the way you want it most fabrication places should be able to make this for you.
Hopefully that helps and good luck with your Kawasaki project don’t forget to tag me on Instagram if you build something amazing and want to share it with me
Please hope u can help me I bought a 78 77 honda gas tank but it didn't fit any ideas how I can make it fit
You need to chop out the tunnel or get a different tank. It’s hard sometimes but it’s worth the extra work.
Well done! But I'm sorry to say, the music is too loud! I've said it before...maybe it's my gear that's not so good, I don't know. Anyroad, I think you should know.
Nice design on the chainguard. Maybe use drylube? I do, and it works a treat.
I have a 91 honda nighthawk 750 what gas tank can I put to build a Cafe racer
It’s not that simple, you need to do some research on length and tunnel size
My misses would say you had a boy look Dan! How are those pod filters coming along for the cb550? Wayne
I’m falling victim of that a few times lol 😂 I was kind of anticipating that comment from someone lol 😂
Can you refresh my memory about the filters?
@@CafeRacerGarage It happens to us all, been looking through boxes of stuff for something with no luck only to have another go later to find it was there all along! I sent you a photo of the tiny space on my cb550 to fit pod filters, for your parts website to see if you get some or have some made to suit the small gap.
I've always wanted to get a cbx
I bought the same rubber gas tank mounts 3 times because I kept losing them
i lost an axle clamp the day before i was sending it to powdercoat. looked all over for it, emptied the box of parts going to PC 4 times, texted friends i thought might have one, looked on ebay... go to look at something else in the box of parts to get to PC, and there it was....
Been there done that
I lose parts too, always appear after I don't need them.
Thats how end up with heaps of spare part's 🤣🤣🤣🤣
First
That was fast, I only just hit the post button :)
Hi Dan, Some of us don't subscribe to Instagram. Please don't alienate us. Show us the pics please
Great feedback Christopher and I totally get what you are saying. Most of my content is on UA-cam but Instagram is quick and easy to post videos and story’s on with no editing required, one UA-cam video like this one can take me 8hours of editing so Instagram is for more up to date stuff happening in my garage. :)
I don't know why motorcycles manufacturer don't use chain cover guards something to take the impact of the chain in case it breaks
That hollow guard is useless at stopping chain fling so why bother? Not like any guard does anything but keep lube off bike.
