    I accidentally found your channel when I was looking at "all things dirt bike". I nearly passed over your vids but got intrigued by your youth and work ethic. After the first video I was hooked. I'm an old guy at the end of my dirt bike days but not content to let the fire go out. I've been with you thru the acquisition of the bike to, now, its completion. What a ride it has been! I've learned from you, prayed for you, offered advice when appropriate, and watched you and the bike recover. The whole of this experience has been, in ways, a lesson for all of us. Thanks for being there for us as we have been for you. I hope that you will look back on this time as a blessed time for you, your girl, your parents, and us, the guys/gals that love dirt bikes and the great part of our lives our bikes are....Keep the Faith, Cam.....I'll be watching and, once in a while, offering a prayer for you. Peace, Kiddo, Tom

    Been watching since early in this build series, and I still can't believe the insane attention to detail, it's crazy how one guy in his garage can make a bike that is better in so many ways than a brand new one. Awesome work. One day hopefully I can make something even half this nice.

    "Meticulous". That's the word that comes to mind when I watched this video. You have the hands of a surgeon and an attention to detail that personifies perfection.

      I was once in your shoes.. keep a few dollars back anytime you make some. Buy a basket bike and put it back together. Cheapcycleparts dot com will help you get what you need but on that easy dollar yah know? Look for close out sites but use PayPal to buy your gear. I bought pants and jersey for less than 20 bucks. Dont need cream of the crop to function. But! Spend more money on a helmet and boots, knee pads and I rode with elbow pads.. gotta protect your joints your feet and your squishy brain. Before you know it, you'll be riding and you'll feel a bit of pride know that you got it on your own. If I could show you the 01 rm 250 I built up you'd be amazed.. only had to buy a few parts, filter and fluids and I redid graphics. Looked like a brand new bike except for the expansion pipe. Hope you get to feel what the dirt life is about.. it's an addiction. Good luck !

    • @wiggster1080

      Oh and the bike cost me 350 forgot how much everything else was . . All together I think it was less than 500? Not too sure now.

    I have no words to describe how incredible this video is. You made every detail on this bike and you can proudly say that you did EVERYTHING on this bike. There is no other motorcycle build video as complete as yours. I feel obliged to say, CONGRATULATIONS! You made it. I'm watching this video 3 years after you published it but it doesn't matter, after all the hard work you put into that bike, it was the least I could say congratulations.

    • @pgmurray76
      @pgmurray76 5 років тому

      I never realized Cerakote was invented in 1984 and widely adopted by gunsmiths, gun manufacturers, and gun enthusiasts. They seem to have been the earliest users. The thermal cure stuff, as used by Cameron, is no joke. Hard with inherent lubricity and superior corrosion resistance (salt spray testing).
