Really really Nice men!!! ;-) i am doing a bike build myself and i regret that i didnt make that good of a documentation of it how i made it. thumbs up!
OK ...cool build.. looks very 1980s Judge Dredd future world. Warning about Skillshare link...they want you to sign up and purchase a plan if you want your ‘free 14 days’. (And they’ll automatically keep deducting)
How does it run with the pod filters??? I have an 85 XJ700 with basically the same carbs, I wanted to get a Dynojet kit and pod filters but was told it'll NEVER run right without the stock air box. I can properly install everything but don't wanna spend $200 only to have the bike run worse than stock.
Dude derust the frame completely first before you start welding on things.
Did you oil the air filters? They looked dry to me.
bruh!!! 2.5 year build = 2.5 years of shooting footage too. Your long term vision is uncanny. Best wishes and wishing you more success mate!! Ride safe always!!
I just wanna say, this is the ONLY bike build time lapse video I’ve seen all the way through because the shots and editing is so great! After experiencing customizing bikes, I wish more people knew the time and work that go into them. Because when you do, you have more respect for it. It looks easy, but it really isn’t. Mad respect.
EN
I honestly think that your documentary could win a film award.
There are so many things in game here, the filming technique work, the notion and knowledge to judge which parts of the customization were interesting to show.
Without a doubt, one of the best videos I've seen on UA-cam.
PT-BR
Eu penso sinceramente que esse seu documentário poderia ganhar alguma premiação cinematográfica.
Há tantas coisas em jogo aqui, o trabalho de técnica de filmagem, a noção e o conhecimento para julgar quais partes da customização eram interessantes mostrar.
Sem dúvida, um dos melhores vídeos que já vi no UA-cam.
The second you busted out the million dollar CNC machine I was done...
😂
Yes me too...
The tank of the XJ650 is probably one of the best looking factory tanks I've seen. This build was epic! The outcome was so much better than I could ever imagine!
Absolutely incredibly… so many details… so much love… love this bike!! Stunning!! 👍🏻
It's like watching a fantasy movie, watching it again and again.......
We do it because we love it and see something beautiful in the end.
The fact that you don't have more subs is an absolute crime. This is some of the best produced content I have watched on UA-cam.
Appreciate it man! We all gotta start somewhere and im just doing what i love 😁
Its a shame that the UA-cam algorithms do not give bonus points for production quality. This video is very well done.
Agreed
@@TheTurboDad YES
My god the end of this was incredible - the entire thing actually. But this bike truly came out a work of art!
I enjoyed riding that bike in 1984 when my father owned it.
So beautiful to see all the love and care lavished on the XJ650 , my first full on street bike. I loved that bike, and it loved me back.
One of the best documentations of transforming an old bike into an attractive almost new motorcycle!
Well done 👍
Absolutely amazing. To see how much care, detail and hard work has been put into this bike makes it so so valuable. It must be a joy just to sit and ride a bike knowing that your own hands crafted this artwork. Beautiful.
Yamaha seca 650 was my first bike when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I loved that bike.
Dude you restore and refine this XJ650 Cafe Racer looks much better quality than its original plant made.
just wanted to say kudos to your efforts of building that bike, and making an epic video to come with it too. cheers man! enjoyed every second of it!
Halo 🆖🆎🤣
Kesini gegara SG lu, katanya bagus
🆖🆎
Baru liat sg langsung ksni
Langsung otw sini bang karena penasaran wkw
2 and a half years well spent id say. This build is totally stunning. Ive watched all of your videos, and you improve every time. Hope you get many miles of good riding from it. All the best.
RIP good ole vintage bikes. Brave new world.
That tail light was the business, its the little touches that make a big difference!
Wow, amazing build and love the video! I really enjoyed watching, and it's obvious how much care and ingenuity you put into both.
This was beautiful! The bike, the cinematography, the story and the editing. Amazing.
Check this one: ua-cam.com/video/y8HEZ-x4-_w/v-deo.html
I must say that is the sweetest 650 resto-mod cafe racer I've seen. I love all your designs and remakes and the attention to detail. Beautiful bike! Hope you will start another project soon. Have fun riding, you've earned it!
The old bikes still hold the spirit of our imaginations as kids. Things we couldn't yet afford we spent hours pondering upon. Then we bring them back to life.
Absolutely beautiful work! I love the gunmetal and silver paint job! really inspiring to start working on my own projects.
Sensacional, vídeo, projeto e excussão, fazer tudo sozinho!
Você é um mágico da mecânica. 👏👏👏
Took me 3 years to rebuild my xj750. I know how hard it is with out support and in South Africa the guys you take your parts to might just seal them. I had more trouble trying to get parts because it was not a new bike and rebuilding the engine was a nightmare because I waited 7 months just for the crank bearings and they were all different sizes. They guys did not want to help me no big money in it for them. I got her together in the end and seeing her run again was one of the most rewarding things of my life. Love is an engine.
That’s the most beautiful engine I’ve ever seen
holy sh*t! this is soo nicely done and filmed for that matter. You really are just an underrated contentcreator and it's quite sad you don't have more subs, cuz you deserve it.
It's so cool to see the entire process in a single video. Many hours all summed up in 30 minutes. Great work and I can't wait to see what's next.
It was a process in itself to make this video but its worth it so i can watch it back in years to come
it took me a while to pinpoint the aesthetic of this bike, but I finally got it. RoboCop.
It deserves 100 million.Great work
craftsmanship is top tier but your cinematography and editing are next level. awesome work man
When I first saw the beginning of this video I almost didn't want to watch because I thought you were going to hack it up and make it something it wasn't. You really made a great-looking machine here I'm impressed
Men hoy are the real MVP!!! AMAZING job.
I rode one of these for 20 years. Loved seeing what you did with it! Brought back some great memories...
ig i aint mad with my recommendations after all, this videographie is on another level
As a Biker, this is brilliant. As a photographer/film maker, this is brilliant. Nothing more to say. Well done mate
Thanks buddy!
I liked everything but the square headlights. That bike had the massive round headlight and I always liked that look.
Super Arbeit 👍der Charakter der XJ 650 blieb erhalten und das ist gut so, denn die Yamaha war eine sehr schöne Maschine
I wish that video was 3 times longer. Fantastic work!
I've watched many restorations & restomods, cafe racer builds, you name it. This one is surely done excellently. I like the fact that even with the rear end chopped it still retains the right design proportions and does not look awkward.
Spot on. So many of the bob job “cafe racers” miss the mark by chopping the rear end and hanging a cantilevered solo pad. Guess they’re not intended for guys giving rides to curious ladies. The XJ was an excellent bike and this interpretation really does it justice. So good to see the disposal of Yamaha’s swirly wheels. They did over-style a few of their bikes in the ‘80s.
100% agreed.. ! Excellent editing.. and building skills.
Love it!All it needs is a 1960`s Cafe Racing Fairing to give a stunning finish.
I am a Ducati Guy ,but grew up on a bunch of Honda`s.
My first bike in 1969 was 1965 650 BSA Tear Drop Engine.
It was a mechanical and electrical nightmare, always leaking oil, always needing some repair, hard to start when cold, but looked and sounded awesome.
Been there; done that. Two years of great fun and memories.
It’s been such a privilege to follow your journey.
This series got me too finally go all in and get a project bike, picking up an xs400 this week and couldn't be more excited
Awesome to hear man! good luck with it and most of all have fun
Bilt a xs400 cafe racer In 98. Early model with double leading shoe spoke wheels. Great bike. Will do the Ton. Barely.
Good luck man!!! I just picked up a 76 Kawasaki kz400, and I plan on it being a budget build.
Nice! I started my first project late last year - xs400 monoshock model, doing it scrambler/flattracker style. Are you planning to post progress somewhere?
@@Deivs65 once i get started I'll probably start posting to the xs400 forum, should be withing the next month or so. Have you posted yours anywhere?
this bike is awesome. loads of character in the headlights.
guys like you born to be a genius
Amazing work, I so glad all your hard work has paid off, this bike looks amazing, well done buddy!
🙏
Those shots in the rain were pretty epic. And to think you can build yourself a bike like this under 30 minutes..
Hey her made it in even less there was a sponsor video in the middle
Best way to refresh a dated looking bike to turn it into a timeless classic
The build & the editing is insane ! Thanks for showing all the steps, it'll be useful for a lot of us.
It’s insane how effortless he made it look
this is one of the best yt vids i’ve seen in so long, thank you for that
I remember this bike well. My brother bought a new 650 Seca in 82 and then they were doing the square headlight conversion for free if you wanted it, which my brother did. I got a chance to ride it quite a bit. He'd put a pipe on it and flipped the handlebars over which made you sit more like a modern sport bike. It rode well but I always liked bigger engines so when I learned to ride on a Honda 450 Nighthawk I jumped to a V65 Magna. Still love these old bikes much more than the new stuff and I kept over the years a 79 CBX and an 83 1100F Super Sport.
Absolutely outstanding. I'm blown away by the workmanship and the final result. Simply wonderful.
This is QUALITY! Absolute Gears and Gasoline vibes
YESS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! LOVE IT
I want that exact same looking bike with upright/bobber style handle bars. PERFECT!
Love what you've done with that bike. Just brilliant. Nice to hear about the realistic time-frame too!! Awesome and inspirational.
Best of the best I can say... Love your video
Damn! Someone who feel the same way about why rebuild a rusty motorcycle , they didn't know it's our treasure.
I think one the most important parts of the creation of a new bike to ride as well i see the bike but it makes hell lot of sense when you show us the it riding thats the real beauty
The attention to detail is immaculate. Well done 👏
AMAZING build absolutely love the way it turned out and the colors are spot on!
Excellent job. Learned a few tricks. I drove a XJ650 in the 90s. My first fast 4 cylinder bike. Gave it up, because the motor ran like turbine and still had a vibration that made my hands numb. I needed a thumper and shaker. Next and 20 years later were the Kawasaki W 800, a parallel twin, which I really enjoyed. I had to leave it in Europe when I relocated into the US where I bought a Triumph Thruxton, which I am driving for 10 years now.
I'm amazed at how much time and effort you've put into editing the video.
Gotta be one of the sickest bikes I've ever seen. And watching the process... *chef's kiss*
one of the prettiest xj's i have ever seen.... nice one.
Great to watch!
XJ650 was my first bike and I had it in pieces a number of times. Good to see familiar bits and bobs....
Fantastic to watch how you modded and changed it whilst keeping the core aesthetic.
Good job dude.
thats the sickest rear brake light I have ever seen!!!! Dang!!! What a beauty!!!!
Amazing video and inspired me to start doing a full restoration on my 1998 Yamaha XJR1200. Thank you.
I took a 90's honda 250 nighthawk and gave it the cafe racer treatment...seat/lights/gauges/wire tuck/paint/mufflers/new rubber and such. Good fun working on a simple bike, it sounded mean and was fun to ride. If you can find a small older/air cooled bike, you can make them look new without fancy tools...just time and love. I didn't go as far with my build as most, but I started with a $300 bike, put $600 in parts and in the end, sold her for $1200 to a very happy new owner. So I got to learn working on a bike, modifying one, riding one, and made a few bucks in the end.
For sure one of the BETTER cafe racer builds I've watched on YT!!! Very nicely done!!
I have a 1982 xj550 Seca and I love that wee bike it is surprisingly quick for its age and size and it is soo cool too.
Love your sense of style. Your project came out stunning. Keep the vids coming! We are living vicariously through you!
What a beautiful bike! Thanks for sharing your build, well done!
Wow, what a build! Super extensive, self made parts, amazing. The taillight is probably my favorite, because its so damn cool. But the exhaust, subframe, seat, paintjob, everything looks top notch! And not to forget, the video and edit itself! Great job!
Amazing build! Such dedication and detail that can’t be applauded enough in a comment.
Best build video I've ever seen!! Absolutely perfect piece of art. Thank you for documenting everything. Filming and editing are superb!
Well, this turned out to be something wonderful!!!
My recognition!
Awesome work, that's a really nice build.
Me and my dad are fan of old cars and old motorcyles, my dad is more into motorcyles than I am though, I'm more into cars. But it's a passion we both share. I really like the beginning of the video when you explained the question "why do we buy those old rusty pieces of junk ?", since very young I always loved doing DIY and old vehicles (both quite go hand in hand in my opinion). On my 18th birthday, my dad offered me an old and dirty Peugeot BB moped, I couldn't dream of a better gift, my very first restoration project. Everytime I go to my dad's place, I spend my time by working on it. It's mostly a lot of cleaning, but it's still nice to do. I'm quite limited in terms of tools and space to work, so I do what I can with I got, and it still works fine. It's far from done but it's progessing. Watching these kinds of video is really inspiring, it shows the methods of different people, some even explain so we can learn from it. That's also what I like about mechanics on old vehicles: sharing knowledge between enthustiasts.
Sorry for that big comment, I tend to have troubles to stop rambling too much when I'm really passionate about something. 😅
Absolutely fabulous build.The bike looks stunning,the video and commentary were brilliant.More please.
just wanted to say thanks for the video kept me inspired my entire build. on the fine tuning phase/putting miles on and finding gremlins.. wish you could see it.. keep building
Just the way Yamaha XJ deserves to be.
That shifter linkage was money, bro! Nice work!
Great build and great movie. I used to own a bone stock 82 Seca 650 and that motor was a beast. The first time I punched it, I felt the ass end of the bike lift up and thought WTF? Shaft drive. It’s wacky. Without the extra weight, this thing must be a rocket. Really really awesome to see this much love go into one of these great bikes.
this was such a well done build i appreciate the hours you spent on making that video... love it
Bikes are a love you can never get enough of:)
WOW. Just wow. I had an '81 and '82 XJ650s ( both non-SECA models), an '85 XJ700 Maxim, and currently have a '79 XS650 so I have a soft spot for vintage Yamahas. This thing is killer. I originally thought you were crazy for choosing that headlight, but by the end I was digging it. Fantastic build. Top notch work and love all the little details. So many cool things on this bike.
The final looks deserves all that 2 years of work.
Simply superb 👍🏻
The color choices are perfect - it looks incredible.
This video makes me sad and inspired all at the same time.
My father and I bought 2 CB750s back in 2011 with the intent of doing something similar to what you have done. We built a shop with the intent of doing future projects. Sadly, as the shop was finished, he passed suddenly in 2013. I sold the motorcycles and never considered doing it again until now.
:(
Messages like this is what make it worth while putting so much effort into the builds and videos. Really sorry to hear about your dad passing. It can be so hard to find the motivation and passion to get back in the swing of things and if this video has helped in any way, then im glad to have made it. Much love mike!
@@jishh the effort you put into these videos is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your kind words, I didn’t mean to be a downer, just wanted you to know the videos are inspiring and of great interest to me and why. Thanks for doing what you do, having been a graphic designer in a past life I can appreciate the “art” of not only the builds but that of the videography/editing as well. Definitely subscribed!!!
@@jishh btw, if you need some parts for a CB750 I have a ton of gaskets and other new parts etc all in a box waiting to go!
Holy crap. That bike turned out absolutely beautiful! Fantastic camera work as well!
You took my breath away when revealing the final result, it's just fantastic! I have the same shaft driven XJ750 and bought in similar condition, wanted to do a brat style build, but never found time and funds to finish it, so I'm still doing a couple of things each year. You have such a talent, it's amazing!
100 thumbs sticking true up.
I can't say that I have ever been able to go to this level but years ago I did nearly the same with a Suzuki GS500. I added GSXR 750 front forks, dual 320mm discs, custom machined triple adapter, an R6 rear mono shock, and grafter a Ducati Monster rear subframe to it. I absolutely loved the project and it was a long time in the making. And then I sold it. :(
That is where this makes me super sad but also happy I can type what I did above. I learned so much about my skills making that bike into a one of a kind and I will always have that. Just as you have this amazing video; it will always be here.
Now, just don't sell this bike! lol
Amazing build and thanks for sharing.
What an awesome build! Juts amazing to watch the transformation.
Well. Done.
Now go ride that work of art!
