No one does the moto parts restoration on youtube better than you do. It's easy to replace the old parts for brand new, but keeping the original really original, that takes a lot of patience at work. Whenever I think of taking shortcuts when fixing things on my bike, I think about what would Cameron do. For real! :) Your precision and patience are a big inspiration!

It’s amazing to see how many of these tools from this video and others that I have in my garage from my grandpa and dad. When they passed away I got a lot of there tools and garage stuff never went through all of it or had the need to use it all of the random stuff I didn’t know what it was for. But it looks like future endeavors are going to be a lot cheaper now, if I don’t just break everything first.

Hey bud if you need another bike to restore I just spent 2k in new parts for my drz400 supermoto and now im working so much I dont have time to do the restore. No motor work needed just stripping it down powder coating and installing new parts and carbon fiber. Oh and installing the trail tech dash. Your videos got me back into riding and inspired me to build a bike last year and again this year. Love the channel and can't wait to see more vids. Wish I could move there to help you film and build just so I can watch more videos in what little down time I get. Ps. My 4yrs old daughter loves watching your videos too bud with your help maybe my wife will let me get her a bike for her birthday.

I wonder if you could have used some type of internal heat to cure the cerakote on the pipe by maybe running some sort of propane heat through the end of the pipe with a hand held torch or maybe some map gas.... I Think that might heat it up enough? Not sure what the cure time is so it might not be economical.

Looks amazing bro gives me an idea for my bike when I black it out. Gotta get a fair size old toaster oven or oven just working with not a lot of shop space. Your rivets turned out perfectly! Almost everytime I rivet I get one or few that break off a few mil past the face and look ugly. As for colors well when I finally order my new Cycra plastics and do some Cerakot and powder work it will be a blackout look but think on the exhaust and maybe some brake res and parts maybe do a cobalt colour like that to break up the jet black just a touch. Love the burnt bronze tho too, is 3 colors too much for the core of the bike not counting my kit? Not sure.
