Project Cafe Racer IT490 - Part 6 - Who is a happy IT boy?

In this episode we tackle the impossible job of putting a motorbike back together in a time frame shorter than 12 years.
Another step closer to actually getting stuck into the cafe racer 490
*I won't leave you waiting a month and a half for the next video... The conclusion of the massive question of did it start or did it not start will be a few days away!

So glad I found your channel, you're the sort of bloke I would like living next door. I want to hear it!

When the house next door was up for sale, any time some one came to look at it, I went to the shed and started the old IT up, just to make sure they knew what they were getting themselves into if they bought that house! I still don't think the new neighbours are a fan of it though! XD
Cheers matey!

Great scream soundbite right at the beginning :D

[@heathburkill2097]

It's a classic video game death scream for sure! Best part is, it's 100% real!

Enjoy your content Red

[@darrenmorcomb3017]

I REALLY hope you're not planning to chop that beautiful IT up & make it a 'Cafe Racer'

[@heathburkill2097]

Nah, different bike, but nothing I do to the other bike will be "permanent", it will only be bolt on stuff. I will still be able to turn it into a standard dirt bike again.

No way did it start first kick probably 4th kick. well done fella 👏

[@heathburkill2097]

Thank you for having a good honest guess at how it went... If you want to see how close your guess was the next video is up already - th-cam.com/video/B6eO_wwP9bE/w-d-xo.html
