@Benicio Sterling i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
That mini-tutorial on the velocity stacks was really interesting and helpful. I’m looking at customizing my 91 CB750 and want to keep it simple. So for now, I’m leaning toward keeping the air box, and this just gives me another reason to do so. Thanks! . . . Oh, and that’s a beautiful bike!
I've looked at thousands of cafe racers now, and this is my favorite one. Every detail is absolutely perfectly done, and it looks like a factory bike. Other cafe racers always have a big empty void behind the carburetors. Finally someone recognized that it looks ugly as hell having an empty "void" under the seat. This bike is just spectacular. The colors, the heavy duty chain, the gauges, the seat upholstery, the colors of the engine, and the actual mufflers instead of cheap welded straight pipes. Also, so much for the idea that only frail millenials own cafe racers. This owner, John from Roosters, looks scary as hell.
So many of the staff bikes look great, and are clearly what people are interested in. Why is it then that there is almost nothing like any of them from the big manufacturers? We want midsize bikes with a simple style. Instead we get giant displacement engines with plastic and fiberglass for days.
Possibly one of the most underrated engines ever made, I had one that had 115000 miles on the clock, still ran fine. Roller bearing crank, fooking strong engine, the later 425, 450, 500 twins had plain bearings,. Those are yamaha RD250 or XS250 wheels and brakes, not original. Edit, XS250 custom, 16 inch back wheel.
Two weeks ago, I just bought a 1980 Suzuki GS450S with 2,000 miles for $300.00. It sat in a warehosue since 2004 when it was last registered. There was no spark from one cylinder, Previous owner repclaced one ignition coil, sone park plug , and pulse generator and could not get it started and he parked it since. I diganosed CDI issued and got one used CDI on EBay. Not one trace of rust in gas tank since there was no ethanol ingasoline in 2004. I emoved cabutator and it was cleaned as day 1. The motocycle didd not evn have a chance to get to 3,000 miles for the first oil change recommended by Suzuki, Lucky me. I like carb set up idea, thanks.
I put Avon Speedmasters on my supermoped back in 1976. Improved the wet roadholding in particular. The original tyres said "nylon" on the side which didn't inspire confidence!
They probably were bias plys, nowadays tires are almost always radial ply. Radials have steel cords inside, bias had nylon. You can tell by checking the size, if it says for example 120/80ZR17 it's radial, if it was something like 120/80-17 it's bias
Great build. Interesting about the carb vacuum - hadn't really thought of that before, thanks. Only part not 100% for me was the seat fit (maybe 97%) - but that's nitpicking a beautiful build and really, just goes to show me as an asshat.
Great-looking bike. I like those handle bars a lot, what brand/style are they? I tried one of those Biltwell mirrors on my CB750. It looked amazing but it sat too low and rubbed against the top of my clutch hand which I didn't like. I guess I should've tried it on the throttle side of the bars to see if that was better.
Omg my husband built this bike!!! Not you. Apart from the small changes you made to it, this bike was built by my husband I watched him stress cry & laugh building this bike. So please don’t take the credit for it thank you.
Very nice and clear job , I have a Suzuki gs 400 78” and I try to fix the rejet for the carbylator .. I used k&n air filter ,but not running good ! Can you give me more information about the mainjet ? Thanks for your video . It will help me !!!Nice project .amazing
Hi Dom, You need to contact DynoJet and get a stage 2 jet kit from them or a bigger main jet by + 1 or +1.5 from stock. then simply build a chamber from the inlet to the filter that is just slightly longer or that bridges both carbs together and the 2 pod filters attach to that chamber. The bigger distance from the carb to the filter the better it will run.
Roosters Classic & Custom Motorcycles Thanks so much for yours information! I will do it soon , and I hope the best beacause I finish my cafe race but I can’t run it ! I follow you and I watch your amazing job . Thanks that you answered
Brilliant build! That truth spoken, why is the tank’s pinch-weld exposed? Why wasn’t it smoothed out, aligning it with early BSA, Matchless, Triumph tanks? Or more generally speaking, what’s the opinion about leaving exposed pinch-welds on tanks?
Roosters Classic & Custom Motorcycles. I can totally appreciate that choice with the GS400 build, but why many manufacturers mass producing tanks with exposed pinch-welds is baffling. Relative to the gain in aesthetic refinement, economy of scale ought to attend to their costs. I am glad to see Triumph’s new T120 Scramblers with “clean” tanks and a few other manufacturers seem to attend to their classic/retro models with similar detail. Anyway, I really admire the GS400 build and in the future, I’d be interested in hearing more expert opinions on the plight of the pinch-weld! Thanks.
i think it does sounds good for a 2 cyl 180 crank, it does sounds so much better than yamaha r3 or ninja 300 since they have the same engine configuration
Seems like you have intelligently thought out everything on this bike, and the result is amazing. I wish you had thought out intelligently the ugly tattoos that you have permanently disfigured your body with...
@@roostersclassiccustommotor4048 I really wasn't having a go mate, think ur an amazing builder, was just avin a laugh, and loved the bike, I'd av passed out as soon as they said action, if I did offend then I apologise
@@leeelliott8611 Not at all Lee. I hate doing these things and notice it more than anyone. Its all about being yourself and not taking yourself to seriously
Yeah! I made it into a bike shed video, even if it was just walking across the background!
Interesting information about the carb setup.

Just bought a '77 GS400 a few months ago! Can't wait to get it running! Thanks for the video, definitely lots of inspiration!!
Good information about the carbs/ stacks
Lovely looking bike! I want one!

She’s a real beauty, love it. 🏴👍
Thank you
That is a sweet ride I would love one 👍
Wow are you kidding that is amazing
I have GR650 laying around in small parts. Looks similar to GS400. Planning to rebuild it to its finest.
Simply beautiful.thanks for the video
Thank you

Agreed! Had two of them back in the mid 90s... brilliant and bombproof! I still have some of the shims from the buckets in my toolbox!
@colin edley Hello I have just bought a gs450 and was wondering if the engines were just as strong as the 400's
That engine is fucking bulletproof!
Would love to know more about what is going on inside those air intakes 🖤
That speedo is mounted crooked, but everything else is f#cking mint

Great bike Lots of useful information on this video Well done
What a cute little thing.
Great bike ,I would love a CB750 in this style
That’s a sweet machine.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Great build 👏

I quite like this build.
Thank you
Fantastic
Looks good! FTW
I would put a mudguard between the seat and swing arm to keep dirt off the engine.
But this bike is supposed to be dirty
You know it's not going to ridden, so not a problem.
Absolutely gorgeous
Nice looking bike..
Beautiful!!!!
Brilliant job!
Great bike well done, only let down being the welds on the top shock mount.
Yes thank you. Those are the standard Suzuki welds. very poor visually.
Lovely!!
Sweet job dude! ⭐😎⭐
Sounds epic - whilst not being too obnoxious
neat and nice bike

Awesome job mate!
Thank you Glen
Wow you took the fenders off good job
And the side covers amazing
smasher ! trying to find the same rear tire for my project, i know he said Avon, but does anyone know the model / size for that?
Isso que é uma custumizacao linda 😮
Very nice bike but the speedo not being straight would drive me nuts.
the speedo is straight, it's just a false dial sticker as it's a new... in hindsight should have whipped it off!
@@BikeShedMotoCo I did wonder 😂.......
@@BikeShedMotoCo Haha, gotcha.
No mud guards? Are joking?
Omg my husband built this bike!!! Not you. Apart from the small changes you made to it, this bike was built by my husband I watched him stress cry & laugh building this bike. So please don’t take the credit for it thank you.

@@pete_boy71 You're hard to listen to.... Jk 😂

Thanks, Gregory. sorry about my accent though.

Wow 😍😍
めっちゃ魔改造されてるやん W

Is "yokes" a Mandela Effect or what? I have never in my life heard triple clamps called "yokes." That is really interesting.
Can anybody tell me what those handlebars are? I love them!

all down to cost buddy. The client didnt have a big budget and wanted an affordable build that worked for him.

How did you get the avon 5.0 16“ tire on that 2.15x16“ Rim ?
I thought the minimum rim width is 3.0 for this tire
🤘😎
does anyone know where he got the velocity stacks?
If in india i want to have this bike how much have i to spend??
Can you tell me about tires size?
What year is this originally
What tire setup is it ?
I wanted to do a similar tire setup like this but don't know what size to choose
Is this whole bike only £3250!?
skurt yep. Currently on display at our London Shoreditch venue if you’re close enough and want to come see.
@@BikeShedMotoCo thats one good price! Too bad i ain't from the UK.... :( other wise i would have bought it.
Isnt illegal to custom a bike?
I'll let you all know what its like when I finally get it delivered
i wish i had one of these :(
Man what size tires did u run on this
What is/was the asking price?
Just bought a 79 gs550
Be good to know the prices. Bought for £££
Works £££
😎😎😎🤘🤘🤘
size and model of rear tire plz?.
Spawtster bars
What is the make of that handle bar?
Not sure.. sorry.
Great looking bike. Doesnt sound so good though. Missing a lot of grunt.
i think it does sounds good for a 2 cyl 180 crank, it does sounds so much better than yamaha r3 or ninja 300 since they have the same engine configuration
As it says in the film the baffles are in to keep it sensible. Undo one bolt and it sounds awsome
