I like this build because of its basic simplicity in building it and it’s appearance. This proves the average individual can do quality work and do it on a budget.
Best thing about this video was how the guy that built it rode it. You can tell he's enjoying the fruits of his labour. Beautiful machine and much respect bro
Y'kno I'm not even a motorcycle guy, I love american muscle cars. But I have the utmost respect for any person that has the mechanical skills to be able to take an old bike and turn it into something simple, clean, and original. I really admire that you're clearly just doing this in your apartment with what space and time you have. I've seen your other videos and the bikes you build are absolutely beautiful. Forget all the shiny bells and whistles. The bikes you're making are beautiful as just the raw engine on a frame that they are. Keep on keepin' on.
Loved the way the project was performed...not like dismantle everything and everything at single breathe...simultaneous and neat work...handles..headlamps...tank/carb...air filter...then finish tank..finally rear end...etc... Great work...amazing mod...beautiful ride... 👍🏽
Admirable amigo. Tienes el espiritu, la ética, inquietud y conocimientos. Me apena un poco ver que trabajas en un estacionamiento. Mucho deseo pronto puedas tener un taller mas apropiado, ventilado, cómo y seguro. Que Dios te bendiga hermano. Saludos desde Caracas, Venezuela
yo deseo que en caracas empiece un taller asi cuando acabe la crisis, seria un sueño hecho realidad tener una cafe racer, un abrazo desde anzoategui venezuela.
well done dude!!! i am currently modifying an xj600 from 1984. it's been quite complicated, but your video gave me a lot of inspiration now. amazing work!!!
Anyone could have achieved an equally good lookin result by changing the tank and the wheels. You managed to pull it off by keeping the originals and that was your true success!
I really like the fact that you keep you original tank!!! Almost all cafe racer builds use these “old school” bad quality, skinny tanks. I much rather like the “modern” twist you have it! Keep up we need more builds!!!!
Nice job, you have taken a vastly underrated bike and turned it into a thing of beauty well done. So many guys just go out and buy that look, most companies make something along those lines trying to catch the hipsters and sting them for a fortune, when they could get into something no one else has for less than half the cost of the new one. Hope the bike gives you years of pleasure.
It’s very cool work, of course! but I have only one question, why have you paid so much attention to the tuning of the carburetors and the exhaust system, but you did not do the engine overhaul? regardless of its condition, cleaning channels, changing rubber bands and general diagnostics would significantly increase its lifetime and ride comfort. why not?
The engine has already been inspected not long before I bought the bike, I do have new set of cam cover gasket I plan to change, I will also re paint the cylinder and polish the covers. This was only the step 1 of the build ;)
@@TahitianRider many thanks for answer! For me inspection of the engine is the most interesting and thrilling jobs of any repair of Moto or auto, so I asked for it. If it possible, please show it in the next videos!
You made a nice clean looking bike Sir!!! Back when I stripped down my KZ 1300 to a racer, I removed the front (drivers) pegs and welded attachments to the frame and ran my shifter and foot brake to the rear pegs (as well as welding the pegs solid). That way even if someone ask, I couldn't carry a rider (passenger). Put on a 6 into 1 header, pulled the guts (baffles) out of it, removed the turn indicators and everything else I could. Only had a tach on the triple tree (Ain't got no time to look at a speedo!!!). I had the drive shaft and rear hub gears changed by a pro (I'm a country boy!, I don't know anything about such stuff), and she'd top out about 165-170 m.p.h. The reason I know this... That's what I was clocked at. Lost my license for a year, had to pay a crap ton of money to the state and was told if I was ever caught speeding again with in the state they'd revoke my license permanently. Glad I wasn't ever caught afterwards.
@@TahitianRider quick question: You seem to be french, dont you have there an anual or bianual mandatory inspection to pass? I know thats the case in germany and spain, and its the reason why so many people never customize their vehicles...because if they do, they wont pass that inspection and the police will fine you and even take your bike
@@rronaldreagan Germany is really restrict on the mods you can do on your vehicle which is really dump... You can't even change the wheels of your car without having an authentication... I live in Greece, here you can do whatever you want as long as your bike has lights, turn signals and at least your left mirror
That turn signal on the front just like cherry on top of a cake man.. Bracket with lamp and other just fit real well there.. I should try make some too on my daymaker. Yours still beat my racer tho :D glad to find your project. Thank you and please do enjoy your ride and ride safely.
super belle !!! beau travail, par contre je sais pas comment t'as pu faire ta synchro carb avecles aiguilles qui parte dans tout les sens. Et un petit coup de peinture sur le moteur ferai pas de mal. Sinon super vidéo ça me donne envie d'en faire une aussi !!! continue comme ça

This is a very impressive build - especially instructive for those of us with few tools and no "garage" space. I went through a very similar issue; rust in the tank and crud in the carbs. Wow, that was a long time ago....
Awesome build and I couldn't help but laugh at the life support temporary fuel line and bottle to test the engine. That was a really smart idea to keep the project going 💪👍
This is one of the best cafe racer style builds that I've seen on UA-cam . For some reason i love these old four cylinder bikes with separate carbs for each cylinder, and I'm dying to try something like this with a steampunk twist... best of luck in future builds
The best thing about this build is that the motorcycle remained as close as possible to the original and that's what I appreciated the most 🔥
Makes me so happy to see someone pouring love into a great old machine like this. Honestly really inspiring.
I like this build because of its basic simplicity in building it and it’s appearance. This proves the average individual can do quality work and do it on a budget.
Very nice outcome with minimal changes (compared to professional builds). I like those common Yamaha wheels. They were same wheels on my SRX6
The man at 13:43 straight up praised the lord for letting him witness this masterpiece :D
lmao!
Im not a fan of cafe racers, but its amazing how you bring that old yamaha back to life and turned it to something you love. Keep it up!
She is gorgeous! Wonderful job there! Ride safe bud.
Mega 🖤 my Respekt. (my First bike was a xy 650)

The time and effort truly pays off... Amazing bike!
Excellent job and the bike was visually balanced. greetings from Argentina❤❤❤
This looks great! I ride a `99 Xj600 and in one or two years I also want to make a cafe racer out of it..
I have a 94 and a 92 the 92 I put the rear suspension from a yzf600r thundercat on it the front is on my 94
i have the '99 yamaha xj 600 diversion seca 2 .
Loved the way the project was performed...not like dismantle everything and everything at single breathe...simultaneous and neat work...handles..headlamps...tank/carb...air filter...then finish tank..finally rear end...etc...
Great work...amazing mod...beautiful ride... 👍🏽
Admirable amigo. Tienes el espiritu, la ética, inquietud y conocimientos. Me apena un poco ver que trabajas en un estacionamiento. Mucho deseo pronto puedas tener un taller mas apropiado, ventilado, cómo y seguro. Que Dios te bendiga hermano. Saludos desde Caracas, Venezuela
Pathetic...

Verga que ridícula la gente que responde jaja amen mi pana no les pares bola este pana se merece un taller de primera, es un duro
Le talent ?????? C'est ça ! Un grand BRAVO.
excelente trabajo, saludos desde mexico
well done dude!!! i am currently modifying an xj600 from 1984. it's been quite complicated, but your video gave me a lot of inspiration now. amazing work!!!
Awesome job bringing a second lease of life to the old Yamaha, very clever I like it allot.
Great job there - I had an XJ600 back in the day great little bike
you are god of rebuild.
Lovely job,breathing new life into an old bike.Well done.
I love your work man , you're amazing and the bikes you make are awesome
This is the greatest quality build I've ever seen. Keep it up! You inspired me to build my 110 bobber
how in the world do you only have 28k subscribers. Guy testing rat traps has millions and you 28k, crazy. Great videos, keep it up.
Haha 28k already means a lot for me :) but thanks! :)
I wish I had a youtube play button though haha
For around town traffic you can't beat a cafe racer, Sweet job!
Very nice work!
When you placed your finger on the weld right after the rear end was welded kind of scared me xD
Dood... you do great work. The rust in the tank and throughout the system blew my mind. Awesome, just awesome.
Un travail impressionant! comme à chaque fois :D
Merci :)
SO satisfying to watch. I wish I had the skills to do this.
My god, so perfect.
Anyone could have achieved an equally good lookin result by changing the tank and the wheels. You managed to pull it off by keeping the originals and that was your true success!
damn this looks super expensive i'd love to build one of these someday with my own hands
great video bro!
Super expensive? He used all chinese crap that you can get from eBay/aliexpress/wish etc.
I really like the fact that you keep you original tank!!! Almost all cafe racer builds use these “old school” bad quality, skinny tanks.
I much rather like the “modern” twist you have it! Keep up we need more builds!!!!
One of the nicest cafe racers, well done
Thanks for memories. I had the XJ600 for years in the early 90s.
I doubt it at the beginning (was a nice looking bike), but at the end you did a great job!!, congrats!!
This build right here is your best one on my list! Looks, Sound... just beautifull!!!
Beautifull and i respect the effort

Amazing, keep up the good work!!
Those OG wheels on the XJ600 are beautiful! nice build!
Good job dude! Would love to buy that beautiful vehicle from you if i had the money 😂😍
I feel like this video single handedly doubled the price of pre diversion xjs 😆
Excellent job

Best modification ive seen in old XJ 600 good job dude
Tu les vends parfois ? On ne sait jamais qu'un jour, si j'avais le budget .. ;)
Haha je vais surement en vendre certaines oui ;)
Tu connais pas quelqu'un comme toi en métropole qui fait ce genre de meule? J'en veux une aussi xD

Thanks bro!!

i love seeing old bike rebuilt..great job man
I find it relaxing watching time laps builds of motorcycles
这个是目前看过最好的广告视频了，看着一辆普通的老车重新焕发青春在他的灵巧的双手里从腐朽化为神奇，感觉心情一下就愉快起来了，不知道这位大神级人物是哪里的人
Привет из Москвы, Очень хороший мотоцикл получился!
Oh man.. what u've done to the bike is something like Thor who save the universe! Awesome job man👍👍👍
Awesome build and I couldn't help but laugh at the life support temporary fuel line and bottle to test the engine. That was a really smart idea to keep the project going 💪👍
かっこいいね！
こんな動画見ちゃうと、またバイクに乗りたくなっちゃうな。
ça m'apaise, merci de partager ton travail ça fait chaud au coeur
Wow so many classic Porsches around!
very nice build and that porsche in the background
Well done buddy that looks 100 times better than a XJ you have done yourself proud fair play from a Brit biker
Excellent skill. Watched every second in awe. Magnificent work...
Fantastic workmanship and a brilliant result, wonderful!
Such a cool build, and very tastefully done. Good job!
Most important of all - SOUNDS FANTASTIC!
Almost as good as my 67 Triumph Daytona.

I don't know why, but I live the tank on that bike; glad you were able to salvage it!
more videos like this please.........very enjoyable to watch....
beautiful, you sure stripped the ugly off that old FJ
Awesome work, the exhaust wrap and exhaust note are sick!
プロって凄いし自分だけのオリジナルバイク作れちゃうとか羨ましい
Very good work!✌😁 Paint tank with matt gold ....😍
Bravo belle détermination pour faire tout ça en parking + balcon !
That is absolutely clean. Couldn't even imagine how much one of those would cost
Freakin love your bikes !!!! Watching build a bike is like watching Bob Ross painting !!!! love it
Really nice looking bike. Good job.
Looks like the French Quarter.
Bike ride edit into the build. Love it.
Really nice styling & sound
In Brazil This Xj600 looks like a GS 500E Suzuki, I never see this model before, Very nice
Awesome job on the bike AND the video! Thanks!
本当にお見事。 バイクも嬉しいでしょうね。
