The universal smile when a build starts up after being worked on for a while. Priceless!!!
Peter Kowalinski 100% yes 😊
regarding the CX forks seals still leaking... I made a successful 'temporary' fix to my stanchions by cleaning up/smoothing any rough pits & filling those cleaned pits by filling with superglue. when it has set, rub down smooth & bingo no more leaks (without buying new stanchions or re-chroming)... replace damaged seals & gaiters will cover the repair anyway. still good 2 years later.
Fill pits in the chrome with CA glue sand with 1500 /2000 grit paper...it works!! And will hold up.
Psycrow11 I’ve never heard of that idea, thank you

@@CafeRacerGarage I actually did something similar on my mountainbike with nail varnish, works a treat.
That CX is a great bike even when it was stock. I bought one of the very first ones that came out in 1978. It was a really fun bike to ride. I put over 40K on mine before I sold it and to this day I wish I would have kept it. It is probably one of the most sought after bikes to turn Cafe. I was a really good Cafe even when it was stock brand new.
Loving the build so far....A tip for the leaking forks seal....Rub the fork leg down with very fine grit wet n dry paper in the pitted area, fill the pits with a two part epoxy like Araldite and then let it dry for 24 hrs, once totally cured get to work with the wet n dry again. that should get you back on the road for a bit.
Andrew Archer 100% awesome idea mate thank you for the tip
Any number of guys in UA-camland right about now screaming at their screens going, "JUST GET SOME 0000 STEEL WOOL & GO TO TOWN ON THE FORK TUBES!!!"
steven livingston I originally tried that but it wasn’t enough as the pits are very bad and deep. A few suggestions with epoxy were very helpful tho ☺️
@@CafeRacerGarage clear nail varnish and very fine steel wool - all you'll need for that (apart from new seals, probably...oh, and fork oil which is cheap enough)
For that kind of pitting just sand with 1000+ grit sandpaper and it will work. You can buff it afterwards if you wish. Done it on many projects
Brooklyn Custom Garage thank you for the tip mate :)
At 2:51, that look, I get the same look when a build is done and it "Pops" again, great stuff !
Bryon Tapp it’s a great feeling isn’t it.
Nice video! CX500C was my 1st streetbike as a 16 yr old. Deep in my heart. Could try solder-filling the pits in fork tube and then sand and polish. Lead plumbers solder. Cheap and should last a while.
Urban Monk TV that’s a great idea mate. I wonder if solder or epoxy would be better. A few guys mentioned the epoxy in the comments so far
@@CafeRacerGarage I'm not sure. I've never used epoxy in that application before, but in theory it sounds easier than soldering. As long as there aren't any components of fork oil that would react with the epoxy and break it down. I know the solder can be polished to look shiny the chrome, but you've got gators on which will cover it anyway. Interested to see which route you decide to go! 👍🙂
Urban Monk TV I will have a think about this because another comment said to use loctite and as we know loctite is great on steel so it’s another option
Cafe Racer Garage. So close. And still, so far away. It must be nerve wrecking with the bike so close to completion. Keep up the great videos. Great work.
DeCesare1973 So true and your right 😁
Don’t know what the shipping prize to Oz is but I have a set of forks for a CX 500C they are in pretty good condition.
They need new seals and ons has no rebound coil but other than that 😊
I live in the Netherlands
Stephan van Nunen thank you mate, i think shipping would be super expensive but I will keep you in mind.
Cafe Racer Garage I think so to 😊
Honda cx500 always do that if stud still for ages, mine was a git for doing it, always fired on one side but after a good rev it would fire on both sides,
Matt Matty yes my other cx500 sometimes does the same thing 🤷♂️ so strange
I wouldn't worry about it bubby, just give it a good rev, and off you go, i used mine to go on to see the tt races in Isle of Man,
Wow very nice your very talented.i like your video.
Hmmm i would try first to remove the dents with steel wool, and if you find some sharp points u could try this out, i’ve done it a couple times and has worked fine. Use normal loctite on the area, let it dry really good, it will fill the gaps and make a smooth surface, then try sand it carefully and it should do the job.
Alexandre Kanj Bongard great idea mate :)
Hi Dan, looking great and nice to jump and go for a spin after all that time, well done. Hope you are having a great holiday around Europe, we can't complain with the weather here this year , thanks . Gus
Gus yes it’s great weather here in Iceland at the moment and as much as I love being in the garage I also am enjoying the much needed holiday :)
@@CafeRacerGarage Great, enjoy it !! Gus
Nice to see that cx500 runs. Glad you finally able to ride it.
Yuda Dwi Paramarta 😊👍 sure was a fun but short ride
Where did you buy the dust boots for the front forks. What size and brand are they?
So happy for you Dan. Really positive day and great to see it running again.
Adam Howard thank you Adam, I’m looking forward to a longer ride :)
Use some very fine wet and dry to take the rust off then give it a polish, cheapest way about it
Dan, what a great accomplishment you’ve made so far on this bike! Keep going, Mate... hope you’re enjoying your holiday and taking lots of pics! 🏍👍🏍
Gary A thank you mate, yes it’s getting there, I’m taking tons of pics brother 😊
Cafe Racer Garage enjoy every minute!
I've always loved the sound of the cx. I dig the cargo rack. I'm working on something similar.
Lindsey & Dick yes It sure sounds cool. I did a complete video on the rack if you want to check it out to help you with yours
Glad you got to take it out, i like the way it's turning out front & rear definitely look the goods. Bugger bout the pitting, but we know it will be worked out by "the ideas man". Hope all is well overseas, thanks for sharing m8 : )
BOBBER400 thank you mate, yes with custom bikes come custom problems but like you said, it will work out in the end 💪 glad you are enjoying each episode mate :)
Dang! That bike sounds so good! Way more throaty than I was expecting 🙌
ah okay, you're changing up the exhaust. fair enough xD
Moto Mango I have a few muffler ideas to test yet 😉
Yes I enjoyed the video. Haven't commented for a while mate but still enjoying your videos.
Take care, be safe and let the good times roll
Paul Bull thank you for the comment Paul it makes a big difference to me when I see all the comments. The short ones are just as nice as the long ones so thank you for taking the time to let me know your thoughts 😊👍
Can use epoxy on the pitting on the forks. Then give them a good polish
tortron great idea :)
I like the Motion Pro external tank
Thank You For Your videos, it keeps me motivated for building my own custom Cafe Racer
Great job ,inspire me to begin to work at my cx 500
jarg3300 I love to hear that mate 👍😊
Great video
That's awesome, glad it worked, and it sounds badass
luke durkee thank you mate :)
Smart build so far!!
Did you buy new Carbys or clean up the old ones?
Just cleaned the old ones :)
Sound of satisfaction 🏍
Azeem Babar sure is mate :)
Just a heads up, another youtuber i watch was using the same music as your intro and had all his videos demonetized. Great work as always man. I kinda dig the rusty muffler with the army green tank and brown seat.
D_ Baggington thank you mate. Are you referring to my normal intro with the transforming bike or the intro song in this video?
@@CafeRacerGarage yeah, the ome that says "im feeling good" . TJ Hunt uses it as an outro and i think he said he had like 300 videos demonetized because youtube was cracking down on copyright shit.
Love the look of that CX500. When will you take the CB750 for a spin? Haven't seen that bike for a while.
Daxboy16 I’ve been waiting on some parts to arrive and hopefully soon I can get more work done on it to share with.
Maestro eres un genio con tus creaciones
Yo man, I've been following this build since the first time I saw it and it inspired me on my own cafe racer style build for my brother's small displacement Honda CB125CL from the Philippines. Thanks for the ideas mate.
Ron Manalo that is so cool 😎 thank you for sharing
I love the bike and love the build. Great work!
Brilliant! Great to see it running so well, well done mate love ya videos. Keep it up!
Matthew Price thank you Matthew :) I’m very excited too 😊
❤️
Awesome, dude. Looking great
Thank you mate 😊
i love the build and always ilove your channel... watching
fr. Philippines
Good luck on the forks! What is the overall budget for this build?
Ryan Watkins thank you mate, the totally cost video is still to come right at the end
you can fine sand the rust spots down
Caleb Gore thank you mate, that’s what I did but unfortunately it’s still leaking 😢
Silly idea Dan what happened to the forks off the CB 750 could they be usable on this as a conversion if they are still useable ..
I thought about that, I still have them 👍, they will be very beefy
@@CafeRacerGarage Which is good! :-)
@@CafeRacerGarage maybe but the look would suit it quite well
If you want to pay for shipping from Canada, you can have one of my spares
Thank you mate that is very generous of you
Where do you sell your bikes?
Mr. Motor Dude at this stage I’m not selling any but I may do so in the future :)
The cool Bike it's a good Finnisch
Can you use the CB750's old forks for the CX?
john914 it is a good idea but it would mean changing the headlight brackets and some other things up front like brakes, wheel etc 🤔
Congratulations!
แจ๊วดีจังนะจ๊ะ
I want to try cb750 at some point - is it worth it as first cafe racer conversion?
Absolutely! CB750s are one of the most popular bikes for cafe racer conversion. The frame is already perfect for the cafe racer style and there is a lot of support for CB750 builds so finding parts is really easy too! Good luck mate!
Ace definitely hunt around and try and get one :) it’s a super fun project 😁
Do you plan on painting the engine too?
G D yes I sure will when the frame comes off
@@CafeRacerGarage Sweet, I'm excited to see that process and your methods.
whats the name of the intro song ? (remix name)
Neazey it’s hard to say mate. I’m travelling around Europe atm and it’s on my laptop so I can’t see it right now, if you really want it I will need to look for you is a later date when I return mate. 👍😊 no problem
@@CafeRacerGarage I wouldn´t mind if you tell me later aslong as you tell me 👍
