  • In this video, I'll show you how I completely reworked and reshaped the upper triple clamp on a Honda CB550. Many people don't realize this transformation is possible! With just a saw, I removed the bar mounts, headlight mount, and speedo mount, then shaped and polished the piece to a mirror finish. The result is a custom, sleek, and great-looking upper triple clamp perfect for your next cafe racer project.

    What are the odds? I’m in the same stage for my custom KZ550. I’m keeping the bar clamps so I didn’t need to cut anything, just sandblasted and wire wheeled because I love the brushed look too. I’m curious for your next videos on how to tackle the gauges because that’s my next step!

    Cool vid as usual. Gotta say though, most annoying music ever, 🤣. I had to mute it. Anyway, customizing is what it is all about. It's cool you showed it can be done without a lot of high dollar fancy tools. Patience helps, too. Keep the vids coming.

    I know, haters gonna hate. But it needs to be said. It's a really dumb idea. You do realize what that thing does, don't you? You have whittled it away to nothing.
    I have seen them break on dirt bikes before and it's not a good look. Like you say at the end of the video, they are only cast aluminium.

      @@kepamurray1845 it’s not. There is still more than enough clamp left for it to fine and strong.
