that looks nice .. theres a 1999 standard one for sale near me for 795 in good nick .. i came accross this video whilst looking up on whst they look like customized or cafe racer bobber ect this looks crazy kind of a mix of both but proppa smart 👌
Hi, trying to produce a bare bones deauville from a very cosmetically challenged but running bike, largely inspired by what you've done which looks brilliant. Having chucked out the fairings the big challenge is the wiring, did you minimise yours by soldering to do away with all the huge block connectors fitted as original?, all the best, stay safe
Hi Eadsie. Many thanks for the Deauminator vids, I'm part way through building a similar one and then saw your build on UA-cam!! Any more pics or vids to share? ... What tyres did you use? ... Dave
On the video you say you fitted 'adventure tyres'. I love the look of the Army bike, agressive almost. I'm a big fan of the Deauville anyway as it ticks all the boxes for me... a very underrated bike. Can't wait to get mine done, probably a month or two... Thanks
Nice job ! the only thing I would change is the gap between tank and frame , perhaps some sort of filler panel ? mesh? I also think it would look good with the plate attached to the rear mud guard rather than the seat but that's only my opinion. Always takes longer than you think once you get into it but worth the effort as its so unique.
I have an NTV600 which is similar to your Deauville, and I was wondering why the pod filters ran bad? Could it be that the carbs where jetted for more air? (it's cause i'm wanting to delete the stock airbox like you originally planned)
@@eadsierestorations ah yes, thought as much, thank you for your reply! My carbs are in dire need to rebuilding so will look into what jets they take (34mm Keihin CV) and hope to run the cool looking pod filters!
Would you be willing to take on a similar project for me, I have a Deauville which I'd love to have customised but do not have the facilities or to be honest, the skill either..?
Hi, I too am doing similar to a Deauville. I have a running bike missing the plastics etc. I am also in agreement with others that the Deauville tank leaves the massive gap between tank and frame. I will probably be fitting an ntv / revere tank or maybe even a CBR600 one. My question is that will I need the ntv air box to go under the tank, will the Deauville one be too bulky. Thanks and regards. PS. Love your bike a great source of inspiration 👍
Enjoyed watching that, great job. Like others, I think you should have tried to do something with that tank frame gap, it was the only un-aestheticly wrong thing with it.
Thanks for sharing your creation with us. Amazing. Was it a lot of work to change all the paperwork? Again, what about insurance? Do you still insure it as a Deauville? ("Any modifications sir?" : "Well...")
Just basically changed the colour, and insurance stayed the same, i did let the insurers know i had removed the fairing, but was still essentially a deauville
Needs a different tank. That gap just looks odd. You could blank it out with an air scoop on one side and to balance it out, a rocket launcher on the other…!🐴😂🧐😎😜 You could use plastic drain pipe, and mould it to the right shape by heating it up in the oven. Needs military style numerals too. Also ammo boxes as panniers, and knobbly tyres, and a big whip aerial. Peace

Cheers Danny, go for it if it's been looked after
looks much much better with the standard air box, true the seat was meah , love the water bottle
That turned out amazing. Good job brother.
Makes me wanna do a project like that. It's all about the price less feeling when you're staring at it.
Quite brilliant, love the army look, hard to tell it was a deauville.
Thanks, it's the best bike I've ridden, bag's of fun
Nice work as always Prezo. Can't wait to have a ride.
kmorsey75 anytime bud. Don't forget paddock stands
Sublime !!!
Congrats, you have some serious skills, I have the NT700V on 145k on the clock.
Wow, great job!
Really good work, I'd be really interested to hear how it rides?
Horribly lol,

Techno cool stylish toy.
but remember :
The saving of our soul is a great case to try.
Great job. Apart from the music. Thankfully short
You have a DC. Approved sticker. Oh and a lollipop 🍭 of your Choice x
Thanks bud 😊
Hi Eadsie. Many thanks for the Deauminator vids, I'm part way through building a similar one and then saw your build on UA-cam!! Any more pics or vids to share?
... What tyres did you use?
...
Dave
Continental tyres, i can't remember exactly what is on the deaustroyer video, i may have other photos somewhere on an external hard drive

I have alloy mesh, its something I'm going to spend lots of time on next summer, it will do for now. thatks for the nice comments/advice.
Not my style, but I love the thought and effort put into it! Very nicely done!
Thank you sir
Very nice job
wow!!!

You would need to re jet the carbs to balance the mixture, otherwise too much air
@@eadsierestorations ah yes, thought as much, thank you for your reply! My carbs are in dire need to rebuilding so will look into what jets they take (34mm Keihin CV) and hope to run the cool looking pod filters!
Looks good. Have you any idea how much weight was dropped?
i'd say at least 30kg
Bardzo, ale to bardzo dobra robota !!! podoba mi się :)
Really impressed apart from the seat. It spoils the look but otherwise a stunning result.
Would you be willing to take on a similar project for me, I have a Deauville which I'd love to have customised but do not have the facilities or to be honest, the skill either..?
send me an email (monsigna@hotmail.co.uk) with your ideas, contact details, phone number etc...thanks.

Love this bike.
HMMMMMMMM you got me wanting to convert my NT700V now.
This should be made to kit

Can I have a link for the paint please
Olive drab is the colour. Just search eBay, get satin finish not Matt unless you want matt
@@eadsierestorations nice one matey thank you

I'm sure whoever owns it has done just that
bravo beau travail juste la selle je suis pas fan
