I discovered racer TV after I finished highschool in 2018 and about the same time I was born into bikes. I worked towards owning a bike and not only a bike but like some I see on racer TV. And today I own a beautiful zx10 2009 cafe racer built. And I'm working on another build now. Thank you for the inspiration it sure kept me busy enough to stay out of trouble.
Unfortunately, things are more complicated than most people may think. I use this "robotic" voice created by software, because I'm Portuguese, and my bad English accent (and voice), can ruin the documentary character that I like for my videos. I already tried a real British voice in one of my videos, and, surprisingly, almost everyone hated it. Curiously, the robotic voice sounds realy very good for to non-English natives. :) Cheers.
@@pungarehu I’ve been watching this channel almost since it's inception and I think it suits the channel very well... Something about having a neutral voice while talking about beautiful bikes.seems to work..
@@1PaulG1 absolutely!!! I've been watching almost from day one as well and when he switched over to that more realistic voice I could not stand it!!! The original voice is what everyone has come to love about Racer TV because IT IS Racer TV...
Desde que descubrí el canal, empecé a tener pasión x las motos a tal punto que logré armar mi primera café racer (sin experiencia alguna) y los meses la vendi, gracias x tanta pasión en los videos y sigue así, dando contenido de calidad!. Saludos desde Perú.
I was a young buck when the Honda CB 750 and the subsequent 500 and then 550 came out. At the time everyone was in love with them but few could afford them. If back then we could have seen what they could be turned into I can only imagine we would have figured out a way to get our hands on them. Beautiful build.
I Really needed my Racer TV fix! Love the bike love the ideals I get from this show it's nice too know there's others with the same passion as me for these bikes.
The Honda CB550 certainly is the basis for a creative Café racer! I agree with your observation about the shortened forks. In my opinion, the crankshaft & output shaft should be in parallel with the axels and, ideally, they should all be within the same plane. This is the nicest modern 550 conversion that I’ve seen! Thank you for this presentation! As always, thank you for Racer TV, the Café racers only choice! Ride safe my friend! Cheers...
Hahaha. My father asked me to warm up and cool his gs800 every week while he was away for a month. He came back and the chrome exhaust was blue on the downpipes.....said I let it get too hot. Didnt notice the pliers marks on the speedo cable connector. I thought I was the only one till I noticed the same marks on my bikes when I've asked my son while I'm away. I cant moan.
I have just got a 1976 cb550 super sport it's a barn find but that's perfect for my first cafe racer build and yes a lot of parts will come from cognito moto. I hope to show you guys one day
As many times, Less can be More and 550 became in this build More than 750 :). You can look at it for hours as it gives an impression of balance to the millimetre, plus the smooth colours and shadows. A true candidate to nr.1 in 2021. Great build, hail Polska :).
I watched this video over and over again.. it is such an amazing custom bike...! Really wish I have one like this my own. Thank you Racer TV for keep bringing the best Cafe Racer contents...
Um projeto muito bem cuidado. Pessoalmente prefiro a 750 por vários motivos. Os únicos pontos que penso sejam fora do lugar é a escolha de pneus trail e a roda dianteira que teria montado de uma polegada menor. Pelo resto é um excelente resultado. Vídeo magnífico como sempre. O café da manhã da sexta é sempre junto ao esse canal. Parabéns!
Um dia consigo expressar como faz falta esses vídeos da Race Tv. Hoje sim o dia começa perfeito: Um café + uma Cafe = Felicidade. Thank you for the Racer Tv. See you in the next Week. Ps: Feliz Páscoa que o Senhor continue iluminando teus caminhos
I really wanted to see the difference between the 750 and 550,like you showed us ,thank's. Now I want a 550,the frame is nicer ,I agree it's a better option .
Thank you. I'm glad you liked my friend. To be honest, and just like you, I always wanted to see the difference between the 750 and 550. I thought this video was perfect to make this comparison. :) Um abraço.
I owned the first generation 500 when it came out. I got sick of people telling me about the 750's little brother and how it was made for "gentler" folk that couldn't handle the 750. Until a friend of mine offered to to run his 750 against mine just so we could see what the little 500 could do. He was just being "kind" to me. In a flat out drag race, took him off the line, because my reflexes were quicker than his. He trailed me and didn't catch me until we were approaching 90mph. I embarrassed HIM. And shut him up forever about being condescending about my little 500.
@Kyle Klintok Very interesting story. I am very glad to hear that. I always believed that bigger, doesn't mean faster. Thank you so much for your testimony. :) Cheers.
Some motorcycle models until now are beginning to be truly appreciated for the inherently possibilities that they possess. Such has been the previous model reviewed in this channel, the Suzuki GS 650 GL and now this magnificent Honda CB 550. Being very interesting motorcycles in their technical characteristics, they were passed by enthusiasts until now, who truly show their capabilities and possibilities as excellent motorcycles to modify. Perhaps because of the increasingly notorious shortages of the CB 750, so sought after by collectors and modifiers, until it became outrageously prohibitive to buy. This is where these despised motorcycles appear, as excellent motorcycles both to collect as well as to modify. All this at the right price. Gee, that makes me appreciate my decision from a few years ago, when I bought one of those despised bikes: my Suzuki GS 650 GL. Regarding to this work I just say I liked very "mucho"
Hello my friend. Yes, you are absolutely right. That is precisely why I always believed that a good custom project, should always be a reversible one. On this case, the owner of this honda already bought it with some custom changes, from a failed amateur project. Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Saludos.
I have a honda 700sc shaft drive. Totally original and always look to your advice. I would love to make a cafe racer from her but simply cannot bring myself to so I'm looking for another nighthawk shaft drive to have both. Love the channel bud
Mais um belo trabalho que desperta a polêmica, 750 ou 500. Também acho que as menores se identificam mais ao estilo café racer, gostaria de ver um projeto com a cb 400 four.
As we all witnessed last year, the Honda CB550 can be a world class Cafe Racer when in the hands of a true artist. I believe this bike by Michal Cwiek will be one of the top 10, 2021 Racer TV winner’s. Any bet’s?
Lol. You might be right. But I think it is still earlier to reach that certain. Let's see what bikes will appear from now on. Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers.
550's wet sump is easier to work with. The cb750 you have to hide the oil tank. The cb750 engine jugs are tilted forward more, makes them look like its moving faster.
One of my top 5 channels on the Tube! Another beautiful creation brought to us by yours truly! The thing is, am I the only one thinking riding this bike for more than an hour will make you hate it? The rider looks like he’s taking the biggest shit of his life sitting on this thing.
Yes, cafe racer motorcycles are not appropriate for long trips. But even so, I already made a 500 km trip in one day on my Honda CX 650 cafe racer, and all I can say, it is a bit painfull after 200km, but it is possible. :) Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion, and for your support. :) Cheers.
Uuuuuu, that Honda by kinetic motorcycle was a looooong time ago. I think it was almost the first Top 10 winner on this Channel's elections. Thank you my friend for your support. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV Indeed !! Like most vídeos, that is unforgettable. Narrative, timing, audio, all perfect. Keep doing this special work as even me as a non motorcycle guy but 4wheel proper Petrolhead i’m still delighted to watch your work 🇵🇹 💪
This channel is amazing. I love the bikes you feature and I love the points you make about spirit and design. WHEN WILL WE GET AN UPDATE ON THE XS650 BUILD???
Thank you my friend for your support. Unfortunatly, I still don't have news about the XS Project. Unfortunately, Leonel has been very busy lately, and the project is still on the same spot. Let's hope that during the following moths, the XS project could go on as I imagined.:) Thank you my friend for your support. :) Cheers.
In the Philippines there is a Kawasaki called the Barako models 1-3 ! It’s make in the Philippines for the Philippines and is a work horse 177cc bike maker 175 ! It is commonly used as a trike/ sidecar that halls up to 7 😏 ! But it has begun ! First I no test the scrambler is emerging and recently I have been noticing some rather impressive little cafés🤔🧐🏍🇵🇭 ! You may want to look into this you may find one or two or four or five bikes that you may want to do a video on 😎🏍🇵🇭 ! I’m in Kentucky USA and ride a V65 of 84 vintage ! And I’m impressed with the Barako !
@@RACER_TV It is the least any of your followers can do for such wonderfully produced video stories you put together on some of the world's most amazing bikes. We are hoping to be able to drive down through Portugal at some point soon and would like to say hi and have a good look at the best CX500/650 I have ever seen. Kind regards Paul 🇬🇧
Thank you. It would be a great pleasure to meet you personally, and showing you my "Frankenstein" in person. :) Just tell me when, and it will happen. :) Best Regards Vitor
@@RACER_TV That is great Vitor, I will let you know when we can make the trip. We rode 2 up on my Tiger 1200 XRT two years ago this month. We rode through France and over the Pyrenees into Spain, I wanted to ride down as far as Porto but we had very bad weather so didn't travel as far as we planned. Santander was as far as we travelled and caught the ferry back from there. Kind regards Paul 🇬🇧
Very interesting. That is now an historic event, which means your photo has also historic value. Thank you Sir for sharing your personal perspective. :) Cheers.
Once again brother another great video, but for probably the first time I have to disagree with you my friend, in my opinion the CB750 is so more aesthetically pleasing to look at than the CB 500 or 550, and the one thing that will always get me is the sound of that 750 vs the 550, that 750 engine sounds so much more badass, but maybe my mind will change once I ride a 550 or 500 because I have not yet, for now I own three CB750's and absolutely love all three, but none the less..this CB550 is absolutely gorgeous, thank you for another great video brother, by the way it is 3:21 a.m. in America right now LOL!
Lol. So, you are working late, don't you. Lol. No problem my friend. I respect your fine opinion. the CB 750 is also a great motorcycle. But for some projects, the CB 500/550 can be even better. It is also a matter of personal taste. :) Thank you my friend for your support. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV actually no brother! I just have a very hard time sleeping! LOL! I need to be at work at 7 a.m. this morning! LOL, if I can't sleep I usually go in my garage and work on one of my 5 motorcycles, I actually just picked up a 1954 BSA Road rocket which I know will be a lot of fun and a great learning experience! How is your XS650 build coming along my friend? I still cannot wait to see what you're going to do with it!!!
Lol. Very nice to have so many good motorcycles to work with. Unfortunately, the XS 650 project is still on the same spot. The good news is, I made some small changes on the initial design render, which made a huge difference on the final stance. It looks even better now. :)
@@RACER_TV brother I seriously cannot wait to see what you're going to do with it!!! You should make an update video about it my friend, I'm sure there are plenty of other people out there wondering about that project and not just me!!! As unbelievable as your CX project came out I seriously cannot wait to see how this one turns out!!!! Are you planning on starting that project this year?
Lol. Yes, you are probably right. In this battle between the classic and the modern, it seems that the classic, is always at an advantage. :) Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers.

Once again brother another great video, but for probably the first time I have to disagree with you my friend, in my opinion the CB750 is so more aesthetically pleasing to look at than the CB 500 or 550, and the one thing that will always get me is the sound of that 750 vs the 550, that 750 engine sounds so much more badass, but maybe my mind will change once I ride a 550 or 500 because I have not yet, for now I own three CB750's and absolutely love all three, but none the less..this CB550 is absolutely gorgeous, thank you for another great video brother, by the way it is 3:21 a.m. in America right now LOL!
Lol. So, you are working late, don't you. Lol. No problem my friend. I respect your fine opinion. the CB 750 is also a great motorcycle. But for some projects, the CB 500/550 can be even better. It is also a matter of personal taste. :)
Thank you my friend for your support. :) Cheers.
@@RACER_TV actually no brother! I just have a very hard time sleeping! LOL! I need to be at work at 7 a.m. this morning! LOL, if I can't sleep I usually go in my garage and work on one of my 5 motorcycles, I actually just picked up a 1954 BSA Road rocket which I know will be a lot of fun and a great learning experience! How is your XS650 build coming along my friend? I still cannot wait to see what you're going to do with it!!!
Lol. Very nice to have so many good motorcycles to work with. Unfortunately, the XS 650 project is still on the same spot. The good news is, I made some small changes on the initial design render, which made a huge difference on the final stance. It looks even better now. :)
@@RACER_TV brother I seriously cannot wait to see what you're going to do with it!!! You should make an update video about it my friend, I'm sure there are plenty of other people out there wondering about that project and not just me!!! As unbelievable as your CX project came out I seriously cannot wait to see how this one turns out!!!! Are you planning on starting that project this year?
As always great Video..Best of all a CB 550...Ya Hooo...more ideas for mine to...Thanz..😎🇬🇧🏍🐣
Thank you. I'm glad you liked my friend. :) Cheers.
Every time I see this bike I think it's gorgeous.Nuff said.Ha ha.
Lol. Thank you my friend for your support. :) Cheers.
wow this is really cool
Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers.
Best channel for cafe racer Honda SOHC, biggest difference for cafe building, 750 Dry sump so has oil tank to deal with 550 wet sump no oil tank.
Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers.
Beautiful. But I think it will be a very long time before another bike will match Sabastian Happ’s!
Lol. Yes, you are probably right. In this battle between the classic and the modern, it seems that the classic, is always at an advantage. :) Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers.
Bloody Amazing 👍😎
Greetings from Kerala
Thank you my friend for your support. :) Cheers.
My dream bike🤧
C O O L ! ! ! 💯👍😀
wow simply
The CB550, XS650 and the Z900 are the best looking engines... maybe the Laverda 750 engine comes close!
Thank you my friend for sharing your perspective. :) Cheers.
In my opinion the biggest reason to take a 550 over a 750 is the fact that it revs much better
Thank you my friend for sharing your opinion. :) Cheers.
Wow that's nice 👍
